Wading

A bit about wading, wading boots, wading staffs -- and what to do when you fall

Your host
Martin Joergensen

This episode
A trip to the southern coast of Sweden inspired me to do a podcast about wading on slippery surfaces in still and running water. Unfortunately the recorder broke down (drowned!) after a few minutes of recording, so most of the podcast is actually recorded in the harbor of Copenhagen.

PS: I'm sorry about the cell phone noise and the clicking sounds (from my zipper near the microphone) heard in part of the podcast. I have spent some time trying to edit it out, but it can still be heard.
I will make an effort to avoid such sources of noise in the future.

Last cigarette? - Sean ligthing what may well be his last smoke ever. Hard pressed by the Frying Pan waters he calmly lights a cigarette. His next step might well be a wet one.

Pesca a mosca

Yeah, it's Italian, and no, Martin doesn't read Italian! But the nice layout and the great pictures is more than enough to make him enjoy this "Complete manual of fly fishing" in Italian. And in spite of having to spell his way through a few sentences, has already learned a couple of new things.

How simple can it get?

Tying instructions? Materials list?! You must be kidding me! The list is close to being an insult and it is almost ridiculous to tell you how to create this fly in more than a sentence. This little saltwater fly is soooo simple.

Tie a muddler

Martin Joergensen: "One evening when I was tying flies with a couple of friends, one of them, Nils, asked me to tie a muddler, just as a demo. I did. Luckily the other friend, Henning, was quick and caught these great pictures of the process."
