About Me:
A career optimizer of web sites and ecommerce, I’ve been a committed angler most of my life, as well.

One day, while my pops was relaying a story about the old gent behind the counter at the local Orvis shop who wanted him to bring in a picture of the trout he bragged about so proudly for the bulletin board. My mind began to drift and it suddenly clicked… I can build a site for my friends and anyone else to post their fishing tales and pictures! They can send their pictures to their buddies anywhere in the world.

Not just that, but we can now arrange fishing trips; tip each other off to what’s the hot spot and what’s not; and keep each other generally updated. Best of all, it’s a gateway to getting in a little more fishing with friends (virtually or otherwise).

Time on the water is a precious commodity—I’ve seen this sport build, mend, save and sustain great friendships; and I’m happy to help foster that, for my old buddies and for any new ones this site may service. Welcome to MeAndMyFish.com and happy angling!

Weather Channel Fish-O-Meter!

OK, this is really cool! If you haven’t seen it, WeatherChannel.com has fishing conditions for any US location at this link. I even found the place that I fell in love with fly-fishing… Broken Bow, OK! Save it to your favorites.

More fish in ’08!

Every year, I’ve made it my New Year’s resolution to fish more than I did the year before. With the exception of 1 year in the past 10, I’ve made it happen.


For 2008, I wish the same for all of you; as well a safe, happy and prosperous new year.

So 5 days of fishing turned up NOTHING, until the final day. Heading down toward lower Owens, snagged a little guy on Hot Pink Gulp egg....go figure! I'm going back August 6th for a week with my parents/brothers....hopefully my fishing count will have raised ; )

Going this coming Friday to Lee Vining for a fishing/camping trip. Any good suggestions on what to use up there? What's been hitting/missing, especially at upper Owens and Virginia Lake?

Would you be interested in being the official networking site of FGHP.com?
I could set up my own, but I have plenty to do and would prefer someone else deal with some things.
Not sure if you make money from this but willing to send my customers your way for Videos and Pics.
