John Elkins
Better known as Big Fish John on the river, he has 45 years experience as a
fly fisherman. John enjoys tying his own flys, leaders, building his rods and
hand nets. He feels the more he puts into it, the more enjoyment he gets
out of it when a fish is landed.
After leaving the military in 1995, John and his wife moved back to Mio and
what he has always considered his primary fly fishing spot, The Big Waters
of the Au Sable River.
Although content fishing streamers and nymphs, John's passion is Dry Fly
Fishing. His specialty is hunting down and catching 20" plus trout during emerging duns and
spinner falls.
