WOT 190: Nymph Presentation, Midges, and "No Bad Days" with Jon Easdon

April 03, 2024 • Jason Shemchuk, Wadeoutthere

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Jon Easdon, from Colorado Springs, Colorado. Jon grew up in Colorado fishing with his father, who took him to a fly shop when he became fascinated with fly fishing as a boy.

Jon has been fly fishing his entire life since then, and now guides in that same fly shop, Anglers Covey. There, he continues to follow his passion on the water and off the water, welcoming new folks to the sport he loves.

We discuss presentation while nymphing, the South Platte River, as well as fishing and tying midges. Jon also shares how finding sobriety saved his life and his relationship with the river. And why he truly believes there are “No bad days” in fly fishing.
