Come hang out, but some flies, freeze your…off with us this Saturday.

Get out of your shell quick complaining about the cold kick Jack Frost in the rear end!

Fly fishing is a primer for wonder. It brings us to be confronted by the sublime and the beautiful. What do we do with that? What does it mean? Let's explore.

It’s Giving Tuesday, and today our hearts turn toward the men and women who have carried burdens most of us will never see—and given more of themselves than we can ever repay.
We invite you to visit our website and discover the heartbeat of our mission. At our core, we keep it simple: we are an outdoor ministry walking alongside veterans on their journey toward healing.
Through the quiet beauty of fly-fishing—whether one-on-one or in the strength of a group—we create space for them to breathe again, to reconnect with each other, and to encounter their Creator, where deep hope and lasting restoration begin.
Stand with us. Stand with them.

A few weeks back, I was invited to do a lecture at the Pittsburgh West Trout unlimited. I decided to speak on something that was very untypical for that type of crowd. My talk was a bit more philosophical. Yet, incredibly pertinent to humanity, let alone the world and culture fly fishing. Here's a blog post that kind of sums up my conclusion with the anticipation of a series of podcast coming soon to unpack all of it. Hope you enjoy it happy reading.

I was invited to do a lecture for the Pittsburgh West trout Unlimited, November 10 at 7 PM. Located at “the barn,“ on the campus of Christchurch at Grove Farm. There will be a few trout fishing tips, but this is a slightly unique lecture. Come join us and support a good cause as well.

The Lawrence County Standdown for veterans was a great event. What an honor to shake so many men and women's hands who have served our country, while representing Cross the Divide

In honor of fallen Navy SEAL, Tyrone Woods, our 2025 Ty Woods Memorial Hunt with Ty's father, Charles Woods, was another amazing time to enjoy God's creation and share a rich time of fellowship and camaraderie. This year's participant was Travis Kiser, a Marine veteran who did deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan with Fox 2/7 as a SAW gunner.

After a brutal hunting opportunity last year in Colorado that was upended by a blizzard, Travis participated in this year's Ty Woods Memorial Hunt with Charles Woods and CTD Oregon Hunting/Fishing Coordinator, Andy Marcum. Though it required patience and prayer, Travis fully enjoyed the beauty of eastern Oregon in September, as well as the success of harvesting a great bull and bringing home some quality meat! As the capstone of this experience, Travis also decided to recommit his life to following Jesus, getting baptized in the Wallowa Lake.
"Before I went to Iraq, I got baptized...sort of like a good luck charm. But I got back and knew something had to change."
