African Tiger via Jeff Currier

Holy Cow! Have a look at the size of this tiger that Jeff caught in Africa while filming with Confluence Films. He says: Our fishing and filming in Africa these past two weeks far surpassed our expectations!  Wait till you see this Confluence Film segment on the big screen! There are no words to describe it. Check out some […]

Tigers

I’ve been away from the office this last week, sadly because of a funeral. But upon my return I noted an email from my friends Jeff Currier. In part he notes: I’m headed to Tanzania as the angler for the latest Confluence Films project. Confluence Films has produced two popular fly fishing movies, Drift and Rise. We are filming […]

The Salmon Trip is Complete

The last two and one-half days have raced by. The third day of the trip, Duane and I explored more areas that we had not fished before, and re-worked areas that we had fished on days one and two. The fish were not super cooperative (when are they ever?), but we did manage 8 landed […]

Home Again

The trip is over, and we made it home between violent Mid-West storms. Wisconsin does get tornadoes, and we had three in our locale just before we arrived. The last part of the trip was a two-day fishing excursion on the Madison, probably my most favorite river in the US. When we visited in late […]

Selectivity

The concept of selectivity is an easy one to understand–there’s a really, really high concentration of one type of food organism, and the fish feed on that organism and shun all others. This allows the fish to target a known food item and thereby maximize food intake and minimize energy expenditure. Well, we normally think […]

Tarpon at Night–Dead Drift

My friend Chuck Furimsky, founder and owner of The Fly Fishing Show, was recently fishing for tarpon in the Florida Keys with our mutual friend, Capt. Jake Jordan. They were up at 3 am to catch the outgoing tide, and were sliding the boat into the Gulf side of the bridge in less than an […]
