mikechell 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 Good video. A bit "dramatic" ... intensity on his face like he was the first person to ever tie a fly that way. BUT ... How DARE he bring that big fish in without "putting it on the reel"? According to many, that can't be done !!! Loved the videography on the stream, though ... I LOT!

It appeared he was using a glass rod. Probably makes it a bit easier I like the part where the trout missed the natural the first attempt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DFoster 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2019 The producers of this film, Carpe Diem have dozens of very well made fly fishing shorts on You tube. Does anyone out there know anything about them? Their films seem to be made in Europe. Are they a retailer, the European version of Orvis? I did a quick google search and there is a Carpe Diem fly fishing based in Virginia but I don't believe they are the same organization. I subscribe to the you-tube channel but I can't find anything about them on it either. Their films are very well done and I am curious about who they are. Thanks all!
