The people behind GFF

A short intro to what and who drives the Global FlyFisher

By Martin Joergensen

We do this for fun!

Not for money. Not for fame (well, maybe a little). Not out of duty.

For fun!

We are currently five guys running the site as partners:

Martin Joergensen, Denmark
Bob Petti, USA
Steve Schweitzer, USA
Kasper Muehlbach, Denmark/Sweden
Bob Skehan, USA

We're just plain fly fishermen and fly tiers like the rest of you.

We write about stuff we want to - and stuff we guess you want to read about. We cover patterns, fly tying, fishing methods, DVD's and books and gear. Most of the things we show are things we do ourselves or own ourselves. We do get review copies of books and DVD's, but it's not like a never ending fountain of packages at our doorsteps. Mostly we have to say "please!" quite a few times to get our hands on things and oftentimes we have to buy it ourselves... which we do... a lot.

We have a bunch of people helping us with content and usually provide space for anyone with anything interesting to say. So if you want to be a part of the "GFF family", just let us know. We work with pros as well as amateurs and aren't concerned with your level of writing or photography as long as you have something relevant and interesting to tell.

There is a whole section with articles about the site.

A few random articles for your entertainment Merry Christmas The Global FlyFisher staff wishes everybody a very merry Christmas - and a happy New Year if we don't see you before then. A Christmas Fly saw its way into Martin's fill-the-box-project. A slightly more colorful variation of his usual drab and dull flies. December 24th 2005 Build a rod, 4 We're now at the final stage of our rod buidling process, and ready to coat the wrappings. this requires a clean room and a lot of care. Jan-Ole Willers shows us in great detail how to do the best job and where to do it. May 31st 2007 Bob Jacklins Yellowstone Ties Bob Jacklin is one of a handful of true legends in Fly Tying, and certainly needs no introduction here. In this DVD, he ties six of his favorite flies for fishing western trout waters - Grey Wulff, Royall Wulff, March Brown Nymph, Green Drake, Platte River Special, and Great Western Stonefly. December 22nd 2006 Trout Bum Diaries - Kiwi Camo - A New Zealand Adventure The second chapter in Angling Exploration Group's fantastic travels, and just as entertaining and action-packed as their first adventure to Argentina.
