A bit of a recap of some of the highlights from this summer in Iceland.

Sexy browns, sexy salmon, sexy bendy rods.

Sexy.

ENC Ambassador Spotlight: Captain Will Paul

He is as native as the sycamores that nod over the rivers, as local as a redeye bass. Captain Will Paul was born in Greenville, raised on the rivers that wind through the Coastal Plain, and early on was inspired to share the grandeur of a quiet Eastern North Carolina stream.

Quiet, that is, until a fly-hooked striped bass or hickory shad breaks the surface of the water and tail-walks across the stream, and the angler in Captain Paul’s boat lets out a whoop of glee that echoes down the river.

Owner of the Rocky Mount-based Tar River Co., Capt. Paul spends a few months each year guiding at the famed Tikchik Narrows Lodge of Alaska. It’s a stunning location. The salmon are strong and wild. But not so strong and wild as to make him forget the waters of home, the languid creeks that corkscrew under soaring oak and cypress. Get hooked on Eastern North Carolina, and you’ll always find the road home.

Pictures don’t do these massive brown trout justice. 🤯

This incredible brown trout from the West Rangá Trout Beat measured an impressive 84 cm!

Congratulations, Dave, on landing this beast, and a big shout out to Dagur for putting him on the fish. 👏🎣

Words & images from my bud @dafason , “Iceland. Four days of clouds, rain, wind and that flat gray light that makes you wonder if the mountains around you actually exist. Then Iceland gave us one of those days. One perfect day when everything opened up. Glaciers. Volcanoes. Big skies.
Chrisburkard invited me on a mission to chase fish, but like most good trips, the non-fishing parts became the most memorable. Dagur with his Red Hot Chili Peppers sing alongs, what officially qualifies a trout as “mega,” and debates over the best Icelandic candy.
The meals at West Ranga hit every note after long mornings and afternoons outside. The meals where everyone gets quiet for the first few bites. I also may or may not have had nine pieces of the hors d’oeuvres before dinner one night.
Travelling like this always reminds me how unique fly fishing is. A fish gives you a reason to travel halfway around the world, stand in shitty weather, and stare endlessly at water for hours, yet still be stoked. Somehow along the way you end up seeing places you never thought you’d see and meeting people you probably never would have met.
The fish are pretty damn cool too.
Thank you Iceland.”

A special thanks to @west_ranga for hosting us

A hot summer day, where my casting was less than stellar, but “guide” Dave Fason always comes in clutch with a proper lunch in the shade to make everything better. #glassisnotdead #carponthefly #carpkwan
