I will be in Tuscany and Venice in late March, 2013. Any fishing possibilities or recommendations? Fresh or salt water opportunities?

Thank you for your kind words. It's midwinter now and I am looking foward to the warm days off spring. You are a very lucky man Flavien to live in Normandy, much longer seabass season! I tried to fish for seabass in Morbihan, Brittany some time ago but not much more than a few juveniles came to hand, but stunning surroundings there. Hope to visit the french coast again for seabass.
cheers

Marcelo,

I'm an avid canadian fly tyer with a taste for classic streamers. I've got a copy of the most beautiful book, ForgottenFlies and have always admired your work. In particular, the quality of your heads are simply amazing. Can you indicate what head cement you use to obtain such a fabulous finish?

Thank you in advance,

Ditto from me. I grew up in Upstate NY..infact smack-dab in the middle. Never got skunked. Even now, when I visit my old stomping grounds.

Hi Luke,
a quick first reply from a neighbouring country. Feb is difficult. If your unlucky everything is frozen (the Dutch are great speed skaters and that for a reason). It could even be that Northern Pike is in closed season.
TL Florian (who froze his butt pike fishing last weekend at 21 F with no fish :) )

Woot!

Ready for the spring I can see. Great box and definitely some really nice flies in there. And plenty!

A good way to spend the off season.

A nice fly,but in my neck of the woods(U.S.),we would call it a wolly worm,either way nice simple fly,that works in both still,& moving waters,tight lines,& bent rods.

Please send me a link to purchase this item, this pattern perfectly matches the caddis larva I saw while fishing yesterday.
Thanks.

I saw this pattern from a friend who got it from this site. So I tied some on a size 12 hook to try on trout and it works great on brown and brook trout.

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

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.
