For those interesting in angling literature, here’s an interesting little tidbit that popped up while we were on the road yesterday – elite auction house Doyle is hosting an online auction of the damned impressive angling book (and art) collection of Jake Johnson (1930-2017) of Bozeman – Doyle will auction an extensive collection of angling […]

The July/August 2018 Edition of The Mission has dropped – read it here. And it’s even more interesting if you’ve read the People of Fly Fishing interviews we recently did with Tudor Caradoc-Davies (one of the mag’s founders) here and here.
Dammit, I can’t believe we missed this Spring 18 issue of Montana Fly Fishing Magazine when it dropped a few weeks ago; read it FREE here. Any the boys at Catch have dropped Issue 57, though you’ll need to pony up for a year’s access to get beyond the first few pages…
Thanks to the good folks at Fox Chapel Publishing we have a brand-spanking new copy of John Bailey’s True Tales from an Expert Fisherman: A Memoir of My Life With Rod and Reel to give away (just released in April). The title received the Book of the Year Award from the Angling Writers Association, and […]
Read it here.
If you missed the first half of Tudor’s interview, read it here. What do you consider your home water and what about it keeps you coming back time after time? Probably the streams of the Western Cape, like the Holsloot, the Smalblaar and the Elandspad. They are about an hour from where I live. The […]
It’s my pleasure to post the first of a two-part interview with Tudor Caradoc-Davies, one of the principals behind The Mission, the very well done digital fly fishing mag out of Cape Town, South Africa. Garnering perspectives from guys and gals in other countries is always interesting and serves as a healthy reminder that the […]
If nothing else today, read the Editor’s Letter from Grossman – particularly if you’re a young, spry, going to change the fly fishing world aspiring guide, though the tribute to Lefty is probably the best I’ve read in a long list of pretty damn touching accolades that have flowed forth over the past weeks. There’s […]
Jam packed with good stuff as always, read it here.
Adorning a damn big window in (of all places) Orvis Dallas.
Superlative work from Tudor Caradoc-Davies and his team across the waters in Capetown on this issue of The Mission; don’t miss the piece from guide Matt Goreli – Of Destinations and Douchebags, or the foodie piece KFC – Kimberley Fried Catfish. Read it all right here. By the way, we’ve been chatting back and forth […]
Read it.
Today we’ll post the third giveaway from Waterford Press, another of their laminated guides to gamefish of North America. Thanks again to Mike Onorato and Waterford Press who were most kind to send over this guide – Bass and Freshwater Game Fish of North America – in the bundle for us to play with, learn […]
Worth it for the spring hatch and Skwala discussions alone, the stillwater focus and the smallmouths are just icing on the cake. Read it here.
For the second time in as many months, I’ve had the chance to pick the brain of a very skilled, very experienced fly fisher who spends a great deal of his fishing time chasing bass. Rick cut his piscatorial teeth, as did many of us, chucking bait and hardware with family and friends from his […]
