No comments yet

Big bugs or terrestials is a food-source that really can get the fish to rise and inhale a fly on the surface. In this video we have teamed up with Håkan Karsnäser once again, and he demonstrates his favorite super floatant daddy long leg or crane-fly pattern with an Italian-style twist.

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.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

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.
