Fly Fishing DVD Review

Intro to Fly Fishing

"Why Fly Fishing"

WE WERE recently treated to a copy of the new film "Why Fly Fishing" — funded by The American Museum of Fly Fishing and created and produced by Jeffrey Pill (the former senior producer of 20/20 and creator of "Successful Fly Fishing Strategies," "The Art of Speycasting" and "Joan Wulff's Dynamics of Flycasting") — and were frankly blown away by the quality of the production and the care with which its content was assembled. The 31-minute DVD, introduced by former FFF president and Trout Unlimited director Gardner Grant (who was a generous contributor to the project), includes the first filmed interview with John Gierach, who talks from his office ("What I like about fly fishing is its insidious nature") and catches a few fish.

"DRY FLY on a Stream" shows how to analyze a classic long run and position yourself properly to fish attractor dry fly patterns. As LaFontaine points out, it is often better to position oneself for an across-and-down presentation, which allows more options with attractors than the classic up-and-across-stream cast.
