  • Anchored Podcast Ep. 262: Ross Purnell of Fly Fisherman Magazine
    Feb 14 2025
    Ross Purnell is the Editor of Fly Fisherman magazine, a position he has held since 2009. His journey into fly fishing began at age 16 when his mother gifted him a subscription to the magazine, inspiring a passion that would shape his career. In 1996, he joined Fly Fisherman under the mentorship of then-Editor John Randolph. Beyond his editorial role, Ross is an avid fly angler who has traveled the world with a fly rod in hand. He resides in Palmyra, Pennsylvania, and continues to contribute significantly to the fly fishing community. In this episode of Anchored, we discuss how he followed his passion right into his dream career, and we get the inside scoop behind the magazine. If you listen to this show, you know I’m here to discuss the culture, community, and craft of fly fishing. I’m not all that interested in talking about clothes. What you do on the water matters a whole lot more than what you wear. That said, I have been wearing a lot of Skwala apparel recently, and I’m thrilled to be working with them. I’ve worn just about everything out there, and Skwala makes the most thoughtful, innovative, and effective fly fishing gear I’ve ever experienced.
