Coastal fishing
I can't fish wading or even standing anymore due to MS, so I have to adapt. I sometimes use a pontoon boat or a kayak, but at other times I simply sit in a chair or my wheelchair on the beach and fish. It's possible and can even produce a fish now and then - even though I rarely catch anything these days.

Thanks to Henning Eskol for filming and shooting stills.

Baltic flies for calm and clear water

In this part of the series on different coastal conditions, we look at a common situation: water clear as gin and maybe even calm as a mirror. Not the easiest of fishing conditions, but adapting gear and flies to the situation helps.

Autumn Fly

A great looking and very catchy Danish sea trout fly, useful all year round in spite of the name.

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.
