Some of his other books include The Sporting Club and The Cadence of Grass, and Gallatin Canyon.

Staff

Marshall Cutchin
MIDCURRENT’s publisher, Marshall Cutchin, was a fly fishing guide for almost 12 years in Florida’s Lower Keys. Based in Key West, he guided many top anglers and tournament-winning teams. Besides regularly fishing more than 275 days a year in the U.S., he also guided fly fishers in destinations like Belize, Mexico, and the Amazon. He is also the former associate publisher of EQUUS and Polo magazines, former director of operations of the VLS division of IMS Health, and former web marketing manager for RPM International.

Glenn Pittard
MIDCURRENT’s marketing director, Glenn Pittard, comes to fly fishing by way of golf. After chasing the little white ball for 30 years he decided that being a scratch golfer was over-rated and picked up a fly rod instead. These days you are more likely to find him searching the flats than wandering the fairways.
