Miracle Mouse


Growing up in Michigan, I learned to love fishing at night with mice patterns. It wasn’t until I moved out west that I realized how versatile these flies can be. Now, I always carry a few just in case- or if I have too much to drink and need something to keep my attention during the wee hours. 
After fishing a ton of different mouse patterns, I decided to combine different elements of some of my favorites to come up with something more productive. The butt sinking versatility of the Dirty Rat, the wake producing merit of the Morrish Mouse and most importantly the hooking ability of Mr. Hankey’s. The Miracle Mouse was the result of my experiments, and should serve you just as well as it has served me.

Back In The Day...


I remember one time in high school, my buddy and I skipped school. We waited for the beer delivery guy to go into the grocery store and we each ganked a case of beer from his unlocked truck. We didn't have time to actually see what we were taking, so we ended up with some weird chocolate beer and a case of Natty Light. His dad drank Natty Light, so we continued to drink it throughout high school. So it wasn't until college until I realized that Natty Light wasn't a good beer. It was just a whole lot better than chocolate stouts.

True story....
