Expense Skilton began fly fishing at an early age with tutelage from Limestone Legends such as Charlie Fox, Vince Marinaro, and Ross Trimmer. Find out about the history of Pennsylvania’s Cumberland Valley and its influence on fly fishing in The United States and Canada. Pennsylvania’s spring creeks such as LeTort Spring Run, Big Spring Creek, Falling Springs, and parts of the Yellow Breeches were the birth place of terrestrial fly patterns such as beetles, ants, and the well-known LeTort hopper and cricket. Skilton is a Renaissance guy. He’s the president of the Pennsylvania Fly Fishing Museum, a purchaser and seller of historical fishing pole, art and flies, and is likewise a devoted chicken raiser for premium hackle. If you ever considered raising your own roosters, Skilton deep dives into the rigors of raising chickens and how to get differing outcomes for hackle colors and sizes.
