Best known for his appearance in Felt Soul Media's hit fly-fishing movie Running Down the Man, Frank Smethurst is one of the few anglers qualified to represent the up-and-coming sector of fly fishing in any environment. Whether he's on the scorching beaches of Baja or in an Ohio river that once quite literally caught fire, Frank conveys the sense that he's just one of your fishing buddies. (Even if he would probably be the most-talented, widest-traveled, and best-groomed of your buddies). Frank's next project is hosting Trout Unlimited's upcoming television series, On the Rise on the Outdoor Channel, starting April 10. (Don't miss the excellent trailer for the show!)
