Whitlock’s “September Hopper Winds” Art - $115–$440

There are few in the fly fishing and tying world who command a level of respect and admiration greater than Dave Whitlock. He has a lifetime that's been dedicated to our mutual passion.

"For fly fishers, one of the best dry-fly fishing experiences occurs each September on afternoons when early autumn winds blow across trout streams. These winds dislodge fat, mature grasshoppers that concentrate on the lush streamside meadow grasses and deliver them to big, wild, hopper-eating, mature trout. Probably most delighted by this scenario are prime, brown trout that are, at this time of year, clad in a vibrant pallet of pre-spawn fall colors." - Dave Whitlock

The Woodland Plantation is a place full of rich history, warm Southern charm and the area is home to the best red fishing in the world. The marshes of Southern Louisiana are considered an excellent year-round fishery, but the late autumn and winter months are prime time for the large bull redfish, which are spectacular beasts that will run 20 to 40+ pounds. All the fishing is done from fully-outfitted, customized flats skiffs, designed to hunt reds in the skinny backwaters, and all of the captains are highly-skilled guides with years of guiding experience.
