Brian McCabe

Brian was born in Pittsburgh where he soon after moved to central Idaho.  There he grew up learning to fish the Big Wood River and the areas around Sun Valley.  When Brian was ten, his grandfather E.H. Adkins taught him the art of fly fishing.  Soon after he learned his new skill, his family moved him to Watertown, Wisconsin.  In Wisconsin, which was vacant of Western trout streams, he adapted his new love to fishing for carp on the Rock River, until the liberating effects of obtaining a drivers license allowed him to branch out.  He then explored the southwestern waters of Wisconsin's rolling farmland and honed his skills of small spring creeks.  His passion for the west was not lost as he spent most of his summers with his grandparents out west.
