I found Will Taylor on Instagram. His photography had a different look and feel to it and I was very interested in his North Georgia waters. Blue Ridge, Georgia was only down the road about an hour drive from where I grew up in Chattanooga, TN, yet I had no idea that trout the size of my leg lived there.
I made contact with Will and found him to be a great guy who would make for an interesting guest on Saltwater Experience. We scheduled it and then met at Hawks Cay a few weeks later. I wanted to have Will on the show because I wanted to visit him in North Georgia and experience this amazing fishing. We are getting close to filming the episode where I go visit him. Hopefully it will turn out as good as when he came to visit us.
After fishing, we sat down for a while and talked about all sorts of stuff. Will told me how he got started, why he spends a lot of time in Florida, his struggles and successes with sponsorship, and his thoughts on the future of flyfishing. I thought it was a good conversation and I really enjoyed my time with Will.
