Perfect timing for the terrestrial fly fishing days of August, I am pleased to introduce Pennsylvania’s living  iconic legend…A dean of the Cumberland Valley “Limestone Alley” of selectivity’s snooty trout sanctity. He is a limestone spring creek guru that lives in the shadows and legacy of Marinaro, Shenk, Fox and Koch. Hallowed Waters host Matthew Supinski teams up with Orvis fly fishing guide and world-renowned fly tying guest Tommy Baltz as they discuss in-depth the hallowed waters of the Letort, Big Spring, Falling Spring and Yellow Breeches and their selective trout imprint on the Pennsylvania limestone spring creek legends and their contribution to modern American terrestrial fly fishing. Fly pattern designs and dynamics like the Letort Hopper and Crickets, beetles, ants, Jassids, cicadas and so much more are focused on! I have known Tommy since my Washington D.C. hotelier days having fished the Pennsylvania limestone creeks weekly back then in the 80’S as he and I have fished with some of the legends back then. We discuss our relationships, epiphanies and interesting anecdotes with those limestone legends, their amazing ground breaking books which influenced mine and how it influenced all of us and modern fly fishing today…don’t miss this one!
