From an early age a passion for the outdoors, hard work, and an incessant curiosity for adventure in fishing was instilled in him by his father, a fisheries biologist. Fishing is a way of life that offers Hugh endless joy through a creative pursuit of the elusive and challenging, but attainable. There’s peace in connecting with the rhythm of a tide and the seasons of nature. Fishing provides that connection with the whole living world and a deeper immersion into it. Hugh is excited to share with you the knowledge and skills to achieve these rewarding life experiences. Hugh is honored to have been a featured author for Salmon & Steelhead Journal, as well as a host of fishing seminars in the PNW community.
