Description

Boyd Waters is a deer hair fly tyer, guide and content creator known as Fly Fishing Studios. He brings a blend of humor, heart, and hard-earned wisdom from both his military service and his years chasing fish. Boyd shares his journey from US Army Airborne to fly fishing guide—and how Project Healing Waters gave him back the brotherhood he missed after leaving the service. We swap stories of fly tying disasters, the art of packing for a trip like it’s a mission, and how certain rivers become sacred ground once you truly know them.Boyd reminds us that fishing’s not just about the catch—sometimes it’s church, therapy, or simply an excuse to sit around playing cards with your closest friends. He opens up about fatherhood, the power of community, and the freedom that comes from learning to surrender—to the river, the moment, and even your emotions.
