A life revolving around fly fishing.

jason akl


I am a self-taught fly fisherman/fly-dresser who grew up under the bright lights of the big city, Toronto (Canada) that is. Over the last eight years fly fishing/tying has been more to me than just a weekend hobby. The sport has become the staple that most my life revolves around. I have for the past several years been a fly fishing guide, commercial tier for lodges and private clients, teaching classes, and freelance writing for different fishing websites. Small stream fly fishing for wild trout is what I enjoy the most. I like being able to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city for a day to explore the breathtaking river scenery. The grace of fly fishing is something that I have always loved. The simple fact that you have a chance of hooking into a trophy trout is just icing on the cake to enjoying the wilderness.

My educational background consists of a Masters of Science degree in Medical Laboratory Sciences from Florida International University, Miami, in 2001 and a Bachelors of Science degree in Biology from Northland College, Ashland Wisconsin, in 1999. Born in Montreal, Canada, I now call the secluded streams and vast northwoods of Ashland, Wisconsin home.

If you have any questions or comments feel free to contact me, well not much more is needed to be said on my behalf other than hope to see you out on the waters ..... Tight lines and Smooth threads............<"))<
