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.

Surgeon General

No comments yet

This is a variation on the Skunk that was originated by Del Copper. It's been a proven fish catcher on the Pacific North West steelhead rivers and also been good with sea-run cutthroat trout. This pattern comes from the Flies of the Northwest book put together by the Inland Empire Fly Fishing Club

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.
