True West Custom Fly Rods is excited to announce that we were selected to join American Tackle Company's new Pro Staff Program.  It is an honor to partner with one of the biggest producers of rod building components in the world.

Right outside of Denio, NV, a little one horse town just inside the NW border of Nevada, there is a mountain range that abruptly rises up out of the Nevada sagebrush covered desert to heights of  almost 10,000 feet. This is the beautiful Pine Forest Mountain range that contains a handful of lakes with good fishing, and one in particular called Knott Creek reservoir. We, Tony and his dad, had heard rumors of leviathan size rainbows and cutbows up to 30', and we were finally getting over to see if they were true. 

Hi all, Tony here. If you follow our blog you may recall my entry last year about the backpacking adventure I took into the high country of the Wind River Range. Well, these trips have become an annual occurrence for my wife and me, and this year our hiking/fishing expedition took us to Montana and Glacier National Park. We spent five nights in the backcountry, and covered close to 60 miles. We could probably cover a lot more, but of course we’ve got to make time to stop and fish those high lakes. Jon was able to join us again this year, and also my dad made the trip.

Hey Folks, Sorry its been so long since the last blog. Tony and I have had quite a busy summer and we didn't get writing in.  Tony had a lot of rods he was building plus had to finish building his house. Then I had a busy July and August getting married, going on a legit honeymoon to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and enjoying my new life as a newlywed.
