Fishing on Foot Blog

Fishing on Foot began as a YouTube channel in September 2023 but its origin goes much farther back. I’m a lifelong, all-species angler and have always had an extra fondness for fishing that could be done on foot, whether wading or walking the bank.

I grew up in a non-fishing family, but was fortunate to be in the Tampa Bay area and had plenty of places where I could fish without a boat. First, ponds and creeks I could walk to or ride my bike to and then piers, bridges and wadeable saltwater areas.

As a fishing writer I’ve had opportunities to fish all over the United States and in a few other countries, at times with guides and pro anglers. However, many of my favorite outings are the ones I do on my own two feet, whether wading a trout stream, standing on the surf, walking a pond bank or even walking on a frozen lake.

Through my YouTube channel and this blog, I want to share great angling opportunities that don’t require a boat, blogging about specific outings and providing details on destinations, fishing techniques, gear and more.

Thank you for reading. Be sure to check out Fishing on Foot on YouTube!
