loved it loved it loved it.The wind noise was not a problem it just made me feel like i was standing there beside you,also with your commentry i could feel that anticipation of a pull on the fly at any moment,and, when it came could visualise and feel that excitement of a good fish on the end of your line.EXCELLENT
Hi igmar,
The fish is surely a sea trout - no doubt in my mind...

A fantastic layout . I am very imprest with the overall cost and the simplisityof how it has come together it has given me some good ideas.
Now of to BQ all the best tying and flying
Here in Argentina is not uncommon amongst people to regard others either as heroes or foes, with nothing in between.
Encouraged by him or not, Mr. Krieger does not escape from that point of view, which I think not only damages him as an instructor but also destroys great opportunities to learn what ever is worth learning from anyone and just move on.
Regarding the public waters Mr. Krieger loves to fish in Patagonia, I wish to add that Argentine anglers without dollars in their pockets are kicked out, sometimes at gun point, exactly from some of the very same places.

Alex,
Duh? Not to be smart, but did you try clicking on the knot names?
Martin
wonderful wonderful ran across the article while looking for something to present to my tying classes and there was the answer your patterns. many thanks
Hi Vanuz,
Your right...DistantStreams is down and off line for good. Contacting me there would of been fruitless but the guidesyndciate address works, that I can guarantee. Try it again: admin@guidesyndicate.com or my personal email: ripleydavenport@email.com
So, your interested in Lithuania? If you still are, then let me know your intentions. We are (as always) going over to visit family very soon and later in the year but I am flexible with dates. I have already been over twice and I feel the pull again.
Finland?
Unfortunately, there are many formalities to get in order and Fly Fishing Team Denmark were unable to meet the deadlines for this years World FF competition.
A couple of the teams members had babies due and work held others up but plans look set for next years event in New Zealand but that's a long way off and much could change.
Your pictures are very nice. Lovely scenery. Slovakia seems very inviting.
Good to be in conatct again Vanuz

That's a really nice one! But it looks like a baltic salmon to me, though. Ans Yes I am jealous, lol :)
Hi Martin, congratulations for the fly.
Look my "Chernobyl Ant Tube Fly"

I think the man in the back of the picture is nothing to brag about, picture could have been rated Global Class if he was not in the picture.
The article is great and shows that the "correct behaviour" seldom is how the fish really behave.
The movie is great and it adds a new dimension to the gff, now there is words, pictures, podcasts and movies to educate and entertain readers.
Great work!
Anyway, how are you Vanuz?
Long time no hear. Hows the fishing been treating you?
yep, you´re right. I have tried to reach you at your old distantstream email address, but it seemed to be down.... then I tried your new "syndicate" page, no luck again, so I have just given up :?
I´ve been mostly fishing in Slovakia this spring (to many business trips there). I fished rivers and trout lakes and cannot complain, but no evidence, though - did not have my camera on me :)
....just been making plans for upcoming period, that´s why I tried contacting you regarding Lithuania trip.
How about your invasion to Finland? 😄
EDIT: I have just found some photos to illustrate how picturesque our country is :)
what the hell do you guys drink when fishing? 😄 😄 😄
You are so right about this video. It's all about mr Krieger. His audience sits in speechless adaration before him. It seems no one else has the ability to say anything worthwile about flyfishing.
However, I visited some of those wonderfull places: stunning, he certainly picked the right places to flyfish!!
Bob,
Well you sure are in the royalty regarding tube flies, and in my opinion you have broken the barrier several times with your stuff. Need I mention one of the first patterns ever contributed to this site (https://globalflyfisher.com/node/13655) or your entry in our fly tying contest back when (https://globalflyfisher.com/tiebetter/flymeister/category?category=6)?
Martin
"The King of Tube Flies" it seems my stock has risen lately, only took me 71 years. Sheesh!!!! I wonder what me next trick will be *LOL*
Whoa,
I'm especially impressed by the video!
It's the best I've seen for a long time and watched it again and again.
At least I showed it to my daughter and it helps her to improve her swimming skills, too.
Thanks Martin and I hope there's another GFF-summit this year!

Dude, that's just wrong, wrong, wrong.
I have been considering buying that same rod as well, the action feels kinda' nice in the store. But I never got around to taking one home, maybe now I will, if they have one in my local store.
If you are wondering how the kit performs, one of the best casters I know have posted a youtube clip showing how well it performs (in the right hands ;) ): youtube.com/watch?v=Xu3D0C1jB2c
Alex,
The "filter" is really an action and you need to start Photoshop, go to the actions palette or toolbox and select Load Actions from the menu. Locate the *.atn file, which you unzipped and load it and you can now realease it on any image by clicking on it and pressing the play button in the actions toolbox.

… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
