Ethan Pole

Ethan is an experienced fly fisherman.  He first learned to fly fish at a young age angling on rivers in Montana.   As a young man he returned to his roots of fly fishing when he moved to the “Driftless Region” of Northeast Iowa. Ethan has now moved but returns to the region in the spring and summer months to spend time at his families cabin, visit family, friends, and to engage in his passion- fishing.  ”E” is a teacher at heart – he loves to teach how to tie a double rig or how to get a drag free drift- or to help someone catch that first fish.  He’s totally addicted to the art of fly fishing and his days casting a rod.  Ethan loves the great enjoyment that an angler can receive from the natural engagement and seductive feel of a fish on the line. He looks forward to joining you on the water.

Jason Skoda

Jason grew up fishing the trout streams around Decorah with worms and bobbers.   After buying his first fly rod in ’98, he spent almost every day for two months trying to catch fish (which he finally did).  Years later while on a fly fishing trip to Yellowstone National Park, an add in a local paper said “Do you want to land your DREAM job?”  Soon after the trip, Jason was back in Montana attending the Sweetwater guide school which helped him land his dream job.  Jason spent 2 years as a fly fishing guide at the 4UR Ranch in Southwestern Colorado and that experience opened his eyes to the enjoyment of helping beginners and experienced fly fishers learn new water.  Jason remembers what it was like to be at the beginning of your fly fishing career, and will help you learn and understand what it takes to catch your first fish.  He also has the insight and knowledge to help the most experienced angler maximize their chances of success.
