Spring must be here. Guess I need to find a plow.
Blue Charm Tube Fly. Can’t wait for salmon season.
I’ve had the chance to do sit down interviews with Brian Mulroney, Canada’s 18th Prime Minister, in FLA, Beijing and Ottawa. Great voice! He’s turning 80.
Cabinet Shuffle Day.
Before I see what today’s challenges will bring me, a little escape and thinking about this years fishing. Orange Rat-Atlantic Salmon fly.
Throwback Thursday. Argentina rainbows.
Was lucky enough to work with, learn from and fish with Len. He’s been gone while, but he is still teaching me.
As the snow piles up, tying up a couple of my favourite Atlantic Salmon fly. The Blue Charm. Dreams of leaping Salmon this summer.
Yesterday, before the storm, always a pleasure working Steve @betterbeercom Great working with clients who know the power video can bring to their business.
Shout out to Bluestar Products. Was working outside on a documentary on Saturday where the air temp was -24C and a breeze making it feel like -31C. The fleece eye cushion and can skins were really, really beneficial! #bluestargear #fs7 #rokinon #smallrig #pixe5
Just another day, interviewing a Nobel Prize winner.
Prep day for upcoming shoot. Starting work on a doc Saturday. Details to follow!
Frosty day in Ottawa. I do get into some neat locations as a freelancer.
Did myself a favour and upgraded my eye cuff and headphones for the chilly temperatures we’ve got coming. Now I’m ready! Thanks #bluestargear. Oh and they are a Canadian based company. Great to shop at home.
A great day to be on the ice! Not the biggest fish but plenty of perch, pike and pan fish. 10 inches of ice.
GG awards in the railroad room with the founding fathers looking down on us.
Last day for me working in Centre Block. 10 plus years of renovation, I don’t expect to still be working when it reopens. 1995-2018. Was a cool place to work.
Last live show from Centre Block/House of Commons. Working for CTV National today. The house is moving to he West Block for 10 or more years. I expect my career will be over before that, if it isn’t already.
