Very nice article, very nice fish, very good pictures. Very very interesting every thing I've read in this article. Congratulations for Carolina&Heiko&friends.Good job guys :D !
The bad part of this film is that, where they are fishing the steelhead are spawning, so they are fishing reds. Not cool !!
Excellent article, congratulations and special mention for photographs
Yellow fever? Ive got it! But why cant catch 1 in the VAAL?!? Ive tried several times.All the way from Newcastle to the vall is a long trip. What would b the ideal times, weather and bait?? And besides the fly fishing how else could i make a "yellow rig"?? Any information or help is apprecited. Thanx guys.
Flyboy's comments are utterly unspeakable and I suggest that in Fiordland there are quite a few "Good ol Boys" toting heavy fire power to warrent descretion from the chopper boys. Most keep at least 500m off the deck and are very wary of men or women standing in water up to their chests waving sticks. This tactic is often done by trampers too as it gives relief from sandflies. In Canterbury a naughty ploy is to sneak up on unsuspecting untended choppers and superglue large rocks to one skid. Take offs can be quite challenging I am told!
Good Article...
In my opinion fishing is fishing, and this is just another form of "fly" fishing. Again in my opinion, the defining difference between Polish/Czech nymphing and American "old school" high sticking is the consistent "contact" with the team of nymphs, the leader builds, rod lengths and actions, and of course the difference in the flies themselves.
Also, (and again--just my opinion) any "fly fisher" that has ever walked back to the car after a day of fly fishing and asked his buddy "how'd you do?" is a competition angler--methinks. :)
What about hiring helicopters getting me to the world's best fishing spots? Why try if I can't fly? Only people with thousands of dollars to spend flagrantly catch fish. And it's always better to get your pilot to land 500m upstream from the other anglers you see on approach. They appreciate you letting them know that you will be just upstream so they can still have time in their day to find somewhere else to fish or maybe they can now relax after their 10 hour hike because they won't hav any fish to worry about. Obviously, people who have time to hike in to these places have little to offer the world and those in choppers are the real movers & shakers, so they should be honored and given way.
2 things great story I introduced many folks to fly fishing by taking them to small water & fishing for panfish or bass,my favorite fly for these little buggers is a black body,grizzly hackle,red tailed woolly worm #12 or 10 (non-weighted),love the simple fish.
Incredible pieces of art, beautifull in detail , my favorites are the pencil drawings.
When I had the money I would buy them all !

Rod,
Really strange... I have no problems seeing any of the videos in any browser (Chrome, IE, Firefox, Safari)
Vimeo works fine:
Too bad about your daily fix!

Hi Martin
It seems to be the Vimoe ones -I've tried their website and those load ok-I've update my flash player -any other suggestions as I'm missing my daily fishing fix!
I cut the strips as the method above but use two blades taped to a wood batten, the thickness of the batten being whatever width you want your strip to end up.It gives you a nice even strip the same width all the way along.
… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
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.
