Author / Blake Reimer

As an avid fisherman, Blake was fortunate to discover his passion early in life. While his desire to catch fish never subsided, the method of pursuing fish did change. The allure of fly fishing caught his attention--the art of casting came naturally. As his skills developed, so did his trophy case--as he won casting awards and recognition along the way. Fly Fishing is so much more than just a way to fish to Blake. Being on the water, surrounded by nature, provides a level of relaxation and serenity that he wants to share with others. Along with the adrenaline rush you get as a strong tug comes from the end of your line, fly fishing will help develop patience, commitment, perseverance, compassion and gratitude. These are the same virtues Blake brings to his commitment of promoting and advancing the sport of fly fishing.
