Eric Naguski is an author and guide from Boiling Springs, PA. Central Pennsylvania fly fishing is something of fly fishing folk lore. From the chalk streams to the spring creeks, many say this area has some of the most historic and best trout fishing in the country. Rivers like the Letort, Spring Creek, Yellow Breaches, Big Spring and more. You can feel the history and nostalgia just setting one wading boot in the cool waters of Penns Creek or Little J.
In this podcast, I dive into the fishing and flies of this beautiful area with author, Eric Naguski. In his book Favorite Flies for Pennsylvania, 50 Essential Patterns From Local Experts, Eric covers the meat and potatoes of the hatches and flies for fooling local trout. The good news is most of these patterns are great for trout fishing around the world. With some of the key patterns, he offers a look back on the designer of the pattern as well as best fishing techniques.
I love how Eric pays homage to some of the fishing legends of this area. He’s not shy at saying he and so many of today’s fly fishing professionals are standing on the shoulders of greats like Vince Marinaro, Charlie Meck, Joe Humphries, and others.
