The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.

Night Stalker

Please notice: LeaderCalc hasn't been optimized for small screens. Turning some devices horizontally might make it easier to use, but using a suitably large screen is the best solution.
Category: Nymph/Wet Fly Leaders
A leader for fishing wet flies, streamers or nymphs in low light conditions or turbid water. Use a leader a rod length or shorter, which makes it easier control the fly in the dark and to land fish without visible contact. If you want the fly to fish deeper, consider extending the tippet section.

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.
