May 19. 2006	Modern Spey Casting
May 19. 2006	Casting trio, The Pefect Cast - Distance and Delicacy - Cracking the Code	These three DVD's on casting and salmon fishing are quite an odyssey through these subjects and at the same time a journey almost as far around the world as you can come.
May 8. 2006	A Fine Fish	In my part of the world, rainbow trout are exotic fish. They certainly are not native to NY waters and are rarely stocked in streams or rivers.
May 7. 2006	First podcast fish	The sound of catching a large sea trout
May 1. 2006	The Rise	This past weekend, I met a couple friends for a day's fishing on Willowemoc Creek. I was walking back to join the crew when I decided to fiddle with my new camera awhile.
Apr 29. 2006	Driving experience	Cars, gasoline prices, rod holders and many other issues
Apr 28. 2006	Use a tripod	If you want really sharp fishing images there's no avoiding some kind support for your camera. A steady tripod is the best solution and the one that you see pros using, but there are other ways of supporting your camera as GFF partner Martin Joergensen explains here.
Apr 27. 2006	Glorious light	Another round of good advice for getting better fishing pictures. This time about the few moments during the day where the light is particularly exhillarating—namely around sunrise and sunset. This article tells you how to get the most from these often few minutes of great light.
Apr 25. 2006	Tango Trout	Author Joe Kissane got an unexpected and generous offer when a friend called from Buenos Aires to invite him to Patagonia on a fly-fishing trip to the Rio Manso Lodge in the shadow of the Andes Mountains. He was told that the waters were relatively untouched - and full of trout.
Apr 23. 2006	What a day!	I had one of those fishing days you can usually only dream of
Apr 21. 2006	Malbran	Malbran is the fly that catches everything. Created by Ramiro Garcia Malbràn and tied with simple and cheap materials it's the ideal fly for fierce predators like dorado, pike and bass.
Apr 20. 2006	Global braid	I love the opportunities the web gives us to become global citizens. I just got a 90% price reduction by buying in the US!
Apr 19. 2006	Tool turning	Dutch Henk Verhaar finds that producing his own tools is just as satisfying as tying flies or building rods. Follow his small course in woodturning here and learn to turn hair stackers, bodkins and other beautiful tools in exotic woods
Apr 18. 2006	Cool pictures	Great pictures. Good that you caught fish, Bob
Apr 18. 2006	Thanks	The guy, the fish
Apr 17. 2006	Bornholm 2006	GFF partner Martin Joergensen's annual trip to Bornholm! A highlight in his fishing calendar and always a great trip no matter how lousy the fishing is. This year fishing was fine and the trip a success in spite of troublesome wind and a late and cold spring.
Apr 14. 2006	The Underwater World of Trout	Several years ago, a friend of mine was telling me about a video seminar he saw at a local Trout Unlimited meeting given by a man from New Jersey who liked

Apr 14. 2006	Clouser's Flies	It sure is nice to see Bob's flies celebrated in such a book. Heavy bond paper with a glossy sheen, beautiful full color photos, and lots of step-by-step instructions. Very nice.
Apr 14. 2006	The Cast
Apr 14. 2006	Fishy's Favorites	Jay "Fishy" Fullum is no stranger to readers of Fly Tyer and other popular flyfishing magazines.
Apr 14. 2006	Lefty's Favorite Fly-Fishing Waters

Apr 14. 2006	Atlantic Salmon: An Illustrated Natural History	The subtitle for this book is "An illustrated natural history", and that is exactly what it is.
Apr 13. 2006	Wingless Wets	On a shelf in the shop was a little book that was propped open. It was Leisenring and Hidy's The Art of Tying The Wet-Fly and Fishing The Flymph. Inside, I found a treasure of patterns and some fishing instructions and I suddenly switched gears and began fishing these great little flies.
Apr 13. 2006	Creative Fly Tying	I'm going to work this review backwards and do the complaints first.
Apr 13. 2006	A New Generation of Trout Flies	Ok - so - how happy was I to see that someone finally convinced Scott Sanchez to write a book?
Apr 13. 2006	The Mango	The Mickey Finn is one of the first streamers many beginning fly tyers learn to tie. Kasper Muehlbach never used it and for years a yellow and orange fly was missing in his fly box. Last year he was inspired to tie a replacement.
Apr 13. 2006	Classic Wet Flies	Wet flies have been around as long as fly fishing itself. Are they starting to see a renaissance? In fly tying circles at least, that may be the case, as tyers look for new challenges and new sources of inspiritaion.
Apr 13. 2006	Fishy pictures	We want to capture our fish in two ways: first on the hook and then in the camera. Once the fish has been hooked many of us already envision the poster on the wall, the image in the online gallery or just a print to show to the fishing buddies.
Apr 12. 2006	Bring it!	One of the most common reasons for not getting the really good fishing images is that people simply don't bring their camera. Either they leave it at home - which is really stupid - or they leave it on the bank - which is just moderately stupid.
Apr 11. 2006	Strange X-mas	A Christmas Tree out of season
Apr 10. 2006	Strange X-Mas	Minnow, sand eel, fry. This little fly will imitate most small, transparent fish. Based on a now-classical Danish sea trout fly with an added zonker strip, there is little new under the sun. But it does catch fish as pictures in the article will show you.
Apr 3. 2006	Opening Day - After	Still 15,000 fish shy
Mar 31. 2006	Opening Day!	The Opening Day of Trout Season is tomorrow here in New York.
Mar 31. 2006	Locked and Loaded	One of my pre season chores is sorting out my flox boxes. You know - discarding flies that have outlived their usefulness, adding to stock from all the winter tying, and generally tidying up.
Mar 30. 2006	Bornholm!	The annual trip to Bornholm is now. Yieeehaaaa!
Mar 30. 2006	The Nedbank guide to flyfishing South Africa	I have had the good fortune of fishing with several South African fly anglers over the years, and apart from being great anglers and very nice people (like most anglers I meet), they all left me wi
Mar 30. 2006	Fish Flies I and II	This is an amazing couple of books! Volume one has been sitting on my bookshelf for many years and I have had it out many times to check facts about various patterns.
Mar 30. 2006	Fly Fishing the Great Western Rivers	Some books just have it all: great images, well written text, large format, beautiful typography and all the nice graphic details. But very few have gold print.
Mar 30. 2006	Fly Waters Near & Far	I have been lucky enough to fish quite a lot of places in this world, and generally consider myself a well-travelled fly fisher.
Mar 30. 2006	Woolly Wisdom	A book which is any fly tier's wet dream - or nightmare - depending on your angle of observation and approach to flies and fly tying.
Mar 28. 2006	Windy casting	This time out fishing and even catching fish - although not on the recording.
Mar 27. 2006	Yellow Fever	Imagine a fish that takes a fly as readily as a trout, whether it is nymph, a wet fly, or a dry fly. Czech nymph style, wet fly swing, North Country style or upstream dry fly. Now magine that, pound for pound, at least twice as strong as a trout
Mar 24. 2006	New forum	We did it! We exchanged our trusty old and lagging forum with a new and better one. Now, the forum isn't the busiest place on GFF, but this new software might do the trick and lure a few more people to share the fishing secrets with the rest of us.
Mar 24. 2006	Packing	Preparing for a weekend trip
Mar 20. 2006	Make that None	A long way from here to 15,000 trout
