Owner, Creative Director

Will Phelps

Will Phelps is a filmmaker and fly fishing enthusiast originally from the Southeast, where his passion for art and exploration first took root. As his creative ambitions began to outgrow the confines of his surroundings, he followed the call of the west to Montana—a place where his love for cinematic storytelling and fly fishing could fully converge.

Will is on a mission to redefine how fly fishing is portrayed on screen. Through striking visuals, compelling narratives, and candid conversations with seasoned anglers, he delivers content that speaks to both hardcore fly fishers and those simply drawn to the beauty of the outdoors. His work stands out for its authenticity, depth, and a clear reverence for nature.

When he's not behind the lens, you’ll find Will deep in the mountains, wading through rivers, or chasing fish in remote corners of the world. His adventures often lead him off the beaten path, driven by a DIY spirit and a relentless curiosity for the next great story.
