Or Catch of a LIFETIME!!!

Join me on an unforgettable adventure as I celebrate a milestone 40th birthday with a solo fly fishing trip to Pyramid Lake, Nevada. Over the course of the weekend, I'll be driving over 11 hours and nearly 700 miles, camping out of my car, and fishing in the frigid winter waters, all in pursuit of the legendary Lahontan Cutthroat Trout. These remarkable fish, native to Pyramid Lake, have faced numerous challenges over the past century but have made a stunning comeback thanks to dedicated conservation efforts.

In this video, I'll share my journey, including the unique method of ladder fishing, battling the elements, and reflecting on the lessons from my late father who introduced me to fly fishing. Experience the thrill of the chase as I hook and land several impressive trout, culminating in the catch of a lifetime—a 30-inch, nearly 20-pound Lahontan Cutthroat.

Beyond the fishing, this adventure is a tribute to the importance of conservation and the impact of positive legacies. Join me as I connect with nature, reflect on life's milestones, and celebrate the dedication of those working to preserve our precious ecosystems.
