Larry Offner
Larry sportin' his first cutthroat - yeah baby!

Name: Larry Offner

City: Denham Springs, LA

Occupation: Engineer (and the man behind www.warmfly.com)

Why I fly fish: I started fly fishing five years ago. I saw "The Movie" and just had to try fly fishing. I got hooked up with a local Baton Rouge club (Red Stick Fly Fishers) and the rest is history. I'm obsessed with the sport!

Best day: I recently went on a trip to Mountain Home, Arkansas. It was my third coldwater fly fishing trip. On day one, near Bull Shoals Dam, I caught my first ever cutthroat trout. It was also the first time I had fished a dry fly! It was an incredible experience! I caught the cutthroat on a #20 BWO. Over the next three days we caught dozens of rainbow and cutthroat trout. Although I'm a Louisiana boy surrounded by warm and saltwater there will be many more coldwater trips in my future!

Favorite lake, river, or salt fishing spot: My favorite place to fish is Lake Concordia. It's an oxbow lake located in Ferriday, Louisiana. It's loaded with MONSTER bluegill. There ain't nothing like a stump knocker bluegill on a 2 weight fly rod! Yee-ha!

Trip of a lifetime: Trip of a lifetime? This will be boring for most, but I want to fly fish out West. I want the stereotypical trip to Montana. Wade fishing a clear stream with mountains in the background…catching large trout!
