Get to know the folks that make Mauser Fly Fishing happen.

 

Perry McDougald

Where were you born?  Jacksonville, North Carolina.

How old were you when you first picked up the fly rod?  I can't remember the exact age, but I remember my dad trying to teach me how to fly fish on my grandma's pond.  I would guess around the age of 12.

First fish you ever caught?  First fish ever was a tiny largemouth from the same pond my dad tried to teach me how to fly fish on.  First fish on a fly was a brown trout from the Watauga River in Valle Crucis, NC.

Favorite fish you've ever caught?  My favorite by far is a redfish, but my most memorable are small cutthroat on a hidden creek we dubbed "No Nate Creek" in CO.

Coolest place you've ever fished?  Everywhere.  There's nothing not cool about fly fishing.

Bucket list trip?  Ummm...which one?  My number 1 would have to be for Yumame Trout in Japan.

Favorite food?  Cold Swiss Rolls and a canned Mountain Dew.
