Zac grew up fishing primarily small streams around his hometown in Buffalo, Wyoming where he worked in a small fishing shop and guided fly fishing trips. Since then, he has caught every genetically pure, native cutthroat subspecies in existence -- with a bamboo fly rod, started Fish Whispering, a cable TV fly fishing show, and found a home in Montana where he continues to guide and make bamboo fly rods. Zac enjoys the whole experience of being on the water and fooling fish, especially with traditional gear, like glass and bamboo rods, furled leaders and flies tied with natural materials. However, he also loves using newer techniques such as Euro-nymphing and using any fly necessary to find fish.
