Are you ready?

Steve Hudson, founder of FlyBooks.net, has enjoyed fly fishing, fly tying, hiking and the great outdoors since he was a child. The author of more than 30 books and thousands of articles, he knows how important it is to have great how-to books, accurate destination guides, and clear and readable instructional material. That's what you will find in every FlyBooks publication, too, and Steve wouldn't have it any other way.

Steve's fly fishing, fly tying, travel and outdoor writing has been recognized with numerous professional achievement awards. "It's always gratifying to be recognized by one's peers," Steve says. But his greatest satisfaction comes when he hears from or talks with a reader or workshop who has enjoyed a new experience or learned something new from one of Steve's books or presentations. "That's the highest praise there is," he says.

Chattahoochee Media and FlyBooks.net are operated by Steve and Trisha Hudson. Steve's been fly fishing for quite a while, but Trisha is a relative newcomer to the sport. She caught her first fly rod fish (a sunfish) on one of their first dates. You can read Steve's story of that fishing trip here, but be forewarned that the author is an incurable romantic!  Since that first fish, Trisha has gone on to become (in Steve's words) "really good at this fly fishing thing." Steve adds, "Not only does she provide a fresh perspective on the products that we offer, but she usually  outfishes me too!"

Steve and Trisha are passionate about sharing the fun of fly fishing, fly tying and the outdoors with others, whether through books or face-to-face. "We love to talk about and share this great sport," Steve says,. He's spoken to fishing clubs and presented clinics and workshops all over the United States, and he loves to spread the word one-on-one too. Trisha often joins him, too, bringing her own unique perspective to the table.
