Keith Reeves has been fishing the rivers and streams of Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri for 25 years in search of Smallmouth Bass. In 2015 he put down his spinning rod and picked up a fly rod. Since then he has devoted his free time to tying realistic, lifelike fly patterns that mimic the natural food sources of native Smallmouth Bass. His mentors include Mack Wilson, Duane Hada, and outdoor writer Johnny Sain. He spends his  summers as a fly tying and fly fishing instructor alongside Duane, Ben Levin, and Tadd Fore on their annual Smallmouth Tour where participants enjoy a two day tying and fishing workshop. Wet wading small creeks is his specialty! Keith lives in Fort Smith, Arkansas where he teaches at Southside High School and lives with his wife Tiffany and their two sons Wyatt and Jasper. Aside from fishing and teaching, Keith enjoys hiking, camping, canoeing, hunting, and various other outdoor activities.
