DVD Reviews of Successful Fly Fishing Strategies
DVD Review: Teriffic Fly Fishing DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been fly fishing for decades, starting in the northeast and since then having fished all over. I have seen almost all the fly fishing DVDs and videos produced and this show is, without a doubt, about the best. It is just what its title says -- about strategies and how to fish different kinds of water, no matter if that water is located in New England, the west, the south or Alaska. The DVD covers rivers (both large and not-so-large), little streams, lakes, bends in rivers, undercut banks . . . you name it.
The viewer learns how to position himself for casting and then why and how to cast the correct fly, be it nymphs, dries, hoppers, streamers -- everything is covered. And the results are beautiful - a variety of beautiful trout are caught and released. We do relate to (and laugh) when we see what happens in one location - where a stream joins a river - with a whitefish and squawfish hooked on nymphs and brought in.
This is not a casting video - as the title says, it's about strategies. And what a joy to see the late author and respected teacher Gary LaFontaine in such fine form. He was such an expert, such a wealth of knowledge and such a nice man. And here he is, not only passing along wonderful knowledge, but also being so friendly and fun-to-be-with. He and Dick Sharon are perfect because they not only educate and instruct the viewer but also entertain, and have a good time doing it. They are a terrific duo.
I can understand why the overwhelming majority of customer reviews for this show (including some from professional guides) are so highly complimentary. This is a DVD that I watch over and over again, sometimes for knowledge and tips, sometimes purely for the entertainment value of being out on the water in my heart and mind when I can't be there in person.
Description of Successful Fly Fishing Strategies
This video covers nine different types of water, including small creeks, good-sized rivers, medium-sized streams, stillwater lakes (with float tubes),deep slow moving rivers, 90 degree curves with undercut banks and deep holes and boulder-strewn, fast moving water. We show different fishing situations and demonstrate how to fish with dry flies, nymphs, emergers or streamers, or a combination. We also show how to attach and use different types of indicators and how to set up and fish two flies at once. The purpose of this video is to provide important, valuable anduseable information, all while entertaining the viewer. We believe that you cannot expect people to learn (and view the tapes over and over again) unless they enjoy watching themunless they have a good time. This tape is entertaining as well as educational. Gary and Dick each have a great sense of humor and truly have a good time together. This comes "through the lens."Bestsellers in DVD
