Honestly, this photo is way overrated. You get 1 since I hate seeing trout get squized.

You could make some money selling prints like that! Great Shot!

What a great shot. I almost wanted to set the hook myself. How was this shot set up. And where are you fishing that rainbows will still take flies with a camera in their face?

Hi Darryl,

What a great shot. Try sending it to this place (http://www.flyfish.com/about/photo_contest/) and I think you will have a great chance winning a nice price.

Only the River Knows

A truly different - and truly epic - fly-fishing DVD, which is very unlike most fly-fishing DVDs inasmuch as it has a story, a narrative. The story of two Scandinavian anglers fishing in New Zealand and getting lost, only to find a desolated cabin and a diary left behind. The diary possesses especially one of the anglers who relives the story in the booklet and seeks out the author.

Slinkies

One of the most effective methods of drifting a fly through deep pools in Great Lakes steelhead rivers is to use a slinky. You can buy slinkies from a shop, but you will pay a premium. The components are pretty cheap and they are very easy to make at home.

Tying Tenkara Flies

A very nice, thorough and easy to understand introduction to tying the super simple tenkara flies used for this ever more popular type of fishing. You get 17 patterns and 2.5 hours of video on fly-tying, but little on the fishing itself.
