Lots of good fly fisher folks were pleased and surprised (as were we) to discover a few weeks ago that the generous team at Bonefish and Tarpon Trust was giving away online copies of their Bonefish and Tarpon Journal. It gets even better…..here are the 2010 and 2009 editions online – just click the cover […]

Stumbled across this from the Madison-Gallatin TU yesterday….. Since 2003 MGTU has been producing banquet posters to help celebrate the Annual Trout Fest Banquet (our only fund raising event).  These posters are signed and numbered by the various artists that were commissioned for that years banquet.

Sacred Lands – Eastern California – Mindrelic Timelapse from Mindrelic on Vimeo.

Today marks a first for Chi Wulff. For the first time in almost four years of blogging about fly fishing and other tangentially related things, we’re posting a movie review that has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with fly fishing, rivers, oceans, food, booze, sex or what ever else it is that occupies the (sometimes) […]
