In this episode we WadeOutThere with Mike Savlen from Kennebunkport, Maine. Mike grew up in New England with a love of both fishing and art. He fell in love with fly fishing when he moved to Vermont and found flies worked better than lures.
Mike’s art became his primary professional focus when he “stopped listening to other people” and followed what truly made him happy. As a painter in the Rocky Neck Art Colony in Gloucester, Massachusetts he was encouraged to continue painting fish by one of his art mentors.
We discuss keeping things fresh in art and fly fishing, Mike’s sailing voyage from New England to Key West and how it influenced his paintings, casting to sea run brown trout, and the importance of doing the work.
