Five Flies from C Stevens on Vimeo.
I had originally planned on making a documentary series on my fly fishing trip up to the Salmon River in NY. Ms. Graham had brought up the idea of making something bigger than the NY trip but my Dad’s overall love for fly fishing. Excited by this new idea I had put so much time into a 20-minute full documentary which I had to shorten to about 5 mins to be able to share with my peers. This shortened version is my Dad describing what fly fishing is to him. The title “Five Flies” comes from my father’s start to fly fishing started with five flies my grandfather had given him. I was able to recover footage from our past trips dating back to 2015 and even some pictures from my Dad’s young days. These pictures/ videos are from the Cascepedia River in Quebec, New Zealand, my home state Wyoming, Idaho, Australia, Mexico, and Connecticut.
