Thanks Kelly. I had been looking at the Frost's Blue Smelt for a long time wishing it was a feather-wing so it could be included, and figured I could create something. I'm pretty happy with how the pattern turned out.

Alex,

Some Amazon sellers will not send to other countries than their own (typically USA or the UK) while others have international shipping. Look for the term "International delivery" in the book details.

Or maybe you should try ordering directly from Borger himself? The link is in the fact box to right.

I am an Inlander - some 500 miles off the Baltic Sea. I hate driving so long, catching a cold but no fish for the fish are out of flyfishing distance, or the waves are too high or the wind too strong. I hate to take more then 1 rod with me and I prefer the flyrod. So what to do if the circumstances dont match my needs. I always have a spinningwheel and 2 sbiros in my bag. my flyrod is 3 meters long and it is strong enough to be used with a spinning reel and sbiro. I cant throw it a 100 meters as i can do it with my spinning rod. But 50 meters often save me being without a fish. Maybe some of you will try it. Good luck and tight lines with a fly at the end

So where do you purchase this book if you live in Sweden? Tried to order it at amazon.com but they didn't ship to Sweden. All the best! /alex

Hi David

He builds this "spool keepers" by his self. He calls them "Spool Minder". You could find a video on his youtube channel.
It looks very handy. I think I will build some by my self. It looks very easy to craft a bunch of them.

Absolutely fan-bloody-tastic images. Glad Isaias made the cut!

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.
