Fall Run – Pacific Northwest Steelhead Fly Fishing

A steelhead adventure. The planning, filming, editing and entire fly fishing adventure behind “Fall Run” is, hands down, my favorite T-Motion production yet. Six years after filming “Oregon Coast Steelhead”, Jeff Hickman, Jakob Lund and I met up for another steelhead quest on camera. We decided to take our chances and hit a new river, unknown to any of us. Against all possible odds, luck landed on our side. A high rising river, torrential downpour, and slime slick rocks made […]

Indiana Bones – Fly Fishing the Bahamas with Eleven Experience.

The inspiration for my T-Motion video, Bahamian “Indiana Bones”, materialized inland and at home in Central Oregon. My 10-year old son, who also happens to be my favorite fly fishing buddy on earth, suggested that angler Brian O’Keefe resembled Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Paddling the flats atop his SUP board, Brian navigated the bonefish waters armed with rods and sporting a wild west hat even Indiana himself would likely snag. From my son’s perspective, this Bahamian […]

Carpology Part 1

Summer temps hovering in the upper 90’s. Rising carp. The Missouri River. Dry fly fishing. Montana’s magnificent Big Sky. Put these together, and T-Motion Theater had an unlikely, yet absolutely remarkable fly fishing video opportunity.

Strobel Lake – Fly Fishing Argentina

Stobel was filmed in the southern lakes of Argentina’s Patagonia region. As most anglers know, this geography is famous for its big wind and its big trout. We encountered both in very big doses! The combination of 60 mile per hour gusts, crashing waves, and a landscape of moon rocks (devoid of a landing pad for my aerial camera) made the filming of Strobel one of the most difficult conditions in which I have ever worked. My equipment was put […]
