Marc Conoscente - West Lawn, PA
Fly fishing has been a passion of mine since the age of 9, where a guided trip in Colorado was all it took for me to get hooked on the sport. Following that experience, fly fishing became a pursuit unlike any other. Growing up, I honed my fly fishing skills on the ‘not so famous’ trout streams of New Jersey and spent summers fishing the beautiful waters of Colorado, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. While I love all forms of fly fishing, I enjoy salt water fishing the best. For me there is nothing better than fishing for stripers and blues down at the shore where I grew up. I have been fortunate enough to turn my hobby into my career, and I have been working in the industry for over 5 years, first with Orvis and now proudly with TCO. My passion for the sport carries into my joy of teaching the technical aspects, and providing others with the skills necessary to improve their overall fishing experience. Whether it’s fly tying, rod building, casting classes, or even entomology, I look forward to sharing my passion and experience with others and helping to create great memories along the way.

Shane Clemens - West Lawn, PA
Fly fishing is not just a hobby for me, it's a passion. I come from a family where hunting and fishing is a way of life. At a very early age, my grandfather taught me all his secrets of fly fishing on the small streams around the PA Grand Canyon. He instilled in me the passion of being on the water, something that has stayed with me my entire life. My father also taught me to respect and appreciate the outdoors and to pass down these same qualities to my two daughters. On my perfect weekend, you can find me hiking the small back wood streams in Tioga County with my wife, only carrying with us a backpack, two short 3 weights, and a few cold IPAs. When I am not on the small streams in PA, I love traveling and finding new water. This is truly a passion for me, and turning this passion into a job with TCO is an amazing opportunity.

Jim Lewis - Bryn Mawr, PA
After a pretty good stretch of fly fishing adventures, it’s tough to fully capture everything that continues to draw me to the game.  A good friend (and one of the fishiest dudes I know) once remarked that there are so many “firsts” in reference to fly fishing and that pretty much summed it up for me.  Whether it’s the first dry fly eat of the year, the first bonefish on a seemingly endless Bahamian flat, the first fish a client catches on a fly rod, the first encounter with a black bear while towing a drift boat down the interstate, the first lesson learned on any given day on the water, the first ‘going home fish’ on a Yellowstone trip, the first steelhead on the swing, the first Upper Delaware smallmouth on a Hendrickson dry, the first time on the water you have been on before…and the list goes on.  Always an adventure, always something to learn.

Ben John - Reading, PA
I was born and raised in Pennsylvania with a love for the outdoors.   If I wasn't exploring the woods and tails of South Central PA, I was fishing. I quickly developed a love for fly fishing at a very young age. After attending a tying lesson with my father at the local TU chapter, my passion for fly fishing grew even further.  Fly fishing and tying have become a huge part of my life and I enjoy sharing my passion with others.  I am blessed to fish the well-known streams such as Falling Springs, Le Tort, Big Springs, but some of my favorite streams are the unknown mountain creeks chocked full of wild brook trout.  I also spend a good portion of the colder months chasing Steelhead in the Great Lakes tributaries.  Fly fishing is part of me!

Streams & Trip Descriptions

Eastern PA has some amazing trout streams... but one has risen above the rest since its inception. The creation of Blue Marsh Dam in the 70's resulted in a tailwater fishery that rivals those of the West, The Tulpehocken Creek or "Tully" as it is known by locals. Both rainbow and brown trout thrive in this 50-75' wide tailwater. Make a point to fish this stream when in the area. You will not be disappointed!

 

Tulpehocken Creek
The Tulpehocken Creek is an excellent tailwater where the trout growth rates rival the best US trout streams. Tulpehocken Brown & Rainbow trout are known for being challenging & running absolutely HOT when hooked. The 'Tully' is one of the best streams in PA for year round quality fly fishing.Learn more about The Tullly
