Derrick is a lifelong angler. After a successful twenty-year career in the world of corporate America, he traded in his suit and tie for waders and boots. Although he’s never said no to fishing of any kind, his true passion is fishing for trout on the many streams across the WI/MN Driftless region. Derrick loves sharing his passion for fishing and is a patient teacher–a skill perfected over innumerable fishing adventures with his two young daughters

Derrick is both Wilderness First Aid and CPR/AED Certified.

Doug picked up his first fly rod more than fifty years ago and never really put it down. While he's happy chasing just about anything that swims, he's most at home on the small spring creeks and freestones of the Driftless, where he's spent years quietly figuring out what works and what doesn't. Doug is a patient, easygoing teacher who enjoys helping newer anglers get comfortable on the water and find a little more confidence in their cast.
