Jim writes about fly fishing, serves as a board member for Trout Unlimited Rogue-Klamath, and lives in Ashland, Oregon.
 

As you know, I stopped writing this blog when I moved to Ashland almost two years ago. I’ve also stopped writing magazine articles in favor of books. (I know I must be crazy!)

Please consider supporting my latest book, a coming-of-age memoir entitled “Just Remember the Happy Hours,” available here.

You can keep up with my writing by visiting or signing up for my newsletter at my new website.

A couple of stories from 2024, one about the National Monument outside of Los Angeles, and the other about chasing steelhead with friends on the Klamath River.

Duly vaccinated, it was a pleasure to write about the Kern River for this UK-based publication.

My visit to rocky Mountain National Park includes catching a Greenback Cutthroat, watching lots of elk getting jiggy and the spooks at Stanley Hotel.
