Our destination is wild and rugged West Virginia with master storyteller, Curtis Fleming, founder and host of the hit TV and YouTube series Fly Rod Chronicles. Often overlooked, West Virginia boasts hundreds of miles of wild trout streams offering endless opportunities to discover those hidden gems every angler dreams of.

Born and raised in WV, Curtis is living the dream, having fished and filmed in over 280 locations around the world, but is it all fun and fly fishing?   Find out as Curtis takes us behind the scenes and shares what it’s like to host a reality TV show.   

Today, Curtis dials us into his favorite streams like the North Fork, the Elk, and the Tug Fork and shares stories of an adventure like no other in the backcountry of Alaska, plus famous faces like golf legend Nick Faldo, fishaholic Senator Joe Manchin, and basketball superstar Jerry West.  Stick around to the end for Curtis’ hilarious encounter with the legendary Lefty Kreh!
