WOT 212: Fly Tying Salmon Flies and the South Fork of the Snake River with Ken Burkholder

The Wadeoutthere Fly Fishing Podcast

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Ken Burkholder, from Boise, Idaho. Ken grew up playing music and fly fishing. Growing up in a musical family, with two older brothers to drive him to the river helped him live his early years doing what he loved: practicing the oboe, and fly fishing.
After eventually earning his masters in the oboe at Northwestern University, the mountains called Ken back. He put his passions to work as a member of the Boise Philharmonic Orchestra in his hometown in the winter, and a fly fishing guide on the South Fork of the Snake River in the summer… living his dream for over thirty five years. Ken is also a signature tyer for Fulling Mill.
We discuss tying salmon flies and golden stones, problem solving on the vise for beginners, and the South Fork of the Snake River.
