I got to spend a wonderful morning of fly fishing for striped bass with my client and good friend, Lt. Colonel Richard “The Machine” Comstock, out of his compound on the MA coast. It is a little piece of Paradise and the fishing is always enjoyable and relaxing. The Colonel and I have been fishing together now for more than twenty years… Hard to believe. Where does time go…?

I thought I would share our morning together in pictures. I have been a photographer/writer most of my life and spent 25 years in commercial photography working in advertising and editorial assignments, while also working as a charter Captain and guide the last twenty-nine. Writing, fishing, filming are all passions of mine, but in the end, it is all about the people. I have been fortunate to have worked and fished with the greatest on earth. Thank you, Richard. What a wonderful morning on the water!
