In a confused world of cell phones, fax machines & fast food living there is often a need for escape. As you travel through these pages of stories & photos you will quickly realize I live my life at high tide. This is a tide of crystal clear water; new, fresh, and full of life. It is a happy time where fish dance on the surface and feed with enthusiasm. I stay focused because it is a tide that ebbs & flows daily. It is the glass that is half full. Unfortunately, too many people these days live their lives at low tide.

When I go fishing, it's not about catching fish. It's always fun traveling to new places, enjoying different cultures, tasting local cuisine and making new friends, or just sharing time on the water with family or old friends. Catching fish is a bonus!

I hope that as you read about my travels around the world, you will enjoy the food, the stories and the journey.
