Part 1/3 of our "Lifecycles" - Series

April 1st is opening day! As Iceland's fly fishing guides don't get to fish much themselves during the summer season, some of them make use of the very first days of the season. But only the toughest dare to fish opening day in Iceland; a big mistake, according to Iceland fishing guide Matti Hakonarson. In "Frozen Guides" we join him and a client as they fish the first week of April for hungry trout and char.

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.
