bloody awesome !!, never seen something like this before from european flyfishing DVD production - good luck for your next projects from NZ, hopefully I can get the next DVD till end of this year. tigh lines Klaus
I had one of these DVD's. Very good one. Brian is very skillful person. Any idea what weight rod has he been using? Is this 8 weight?
I've used this rig, with as top fly a big sedge as attractor, a diawl back as middle dropper-nymph and an buzzer as pointfly. It worked well (I only once threw everything in a enormous knot...). Caught two rainbows in a few minutes time.
Thanks for the tip.

Tom, you have to take that comment in context, it is a verbatim quote from a book published in the later decades of the ninteeth century. Evidently, circa 1888 that is what the vernacular implied. Note also the spelling. Perhaps I should have indicated "sic" to denote the transcription.
I need a tube holder for my fly vise, any suggestions where I can get one!! Thanks Doug
Hi!
I'm looking for DvD ( VIDEO ) that show a Garry "ROD BINDER" WORKING?
THANK YOU AND HAVE A SAFE DAY!!
Hi Johnathan,
I too live in Norway, well Mandal to be exact. Most norwegians use shooting heads with a skaget, spey or overhead cast. Shooting heads are excellent for distance casting but harder to mend and have complete control of your fly. Though with this said, the norwegians certainly have no problems catching!
Maybe get a hold of both a shooting head and a spey line and have a go with both. Any good tackle shop should let you try before you buy.
I have used Jans terrestrial its a very very good pattern fun to fish with and there is nothing to beat this type of pattern
Is this a "photoshopfish" :-) The mouth/ eye relationship as well as the tail area say sea run trout but the very few spots at the body as well as at the gills say salmon.
Maybe, a hybrid, or more likely a salmon escaped from a coastal fish farm.
Good job dad! Love seeing you at work!
this is the best guidance for making shooting heads i have found.
I like your explanation, Carlos. Someday, if you come to Washington, DC, we can go to a football game and then catch some Smallmouths. Good luck.
That is one of the reasons why I tie flies instead of watching football on TV. I was a kind of Hooligan watching those matches on TV, but some day, years ago, I almost broke my TV's screen with a beer can I throwed to the referee on a penalty. I was close to be the first "Barra Brava" (Hooligan) in Colombia! So I decided to quit football of my life.
No, seriously, the attitude and the mental state of colombian football players made me change my predilections for the the national football team of Uzbekistan! If they were fishermen, they were fishing with dynamite or poisoning rivers...
If you look closely you can see a fish fin in the middle of the photo. Look closely.
After watching Columbia-Argentina in the Copa America last night I can see why you need something to laugh about. Not that the US will do any better.
hmmmm solved my problem with tying them. I was tying the deer hair the oposite direction. Big help.
Thanks

I work as a electrical contractor and the information you have printed here is wrong and could be dangerous! Dimmers are made to be used on incondecent lamps and not for motor loads. If you want to make what you are suggesting here, you must use a fan speed control which is a reostat to slow down a motor. An incondecent dimmer could overheat and burn up if used on a motor load!
The publisher's link in the fact box above will point you to a place to purchase a copy.
Carlos,
Just wanted to thank you for your very nice comment. You yourself along with hundreds - if not thousands - of other people help us make this site an exiting experience.
We may be the minds behind the scenes, but was it not for visitors like you, it wouldn't be half as much fun.
Thanks

A horisontal horisont and it'd been a great photo for a NOISIA fly rod ad.
… 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.
