The New Fly Fisher - Series Premise

It's all about education. There are quite a few fishing shows on television, even some purely fly fishing series. The problem is few, if any, really help you learn. That is why this series was conceived.

The New Fly Fisher is truly designed to be an educational and instructional experience. It will teach you more about entomology and ecology. How a graphite or cane rod is designed and built. Why leaders are constructed a certain way and which cast will help you to correct for difficult water currents. To explain why large Brown Trout are spooky in relation to other species or why small streams are such precious and fragile environments. Each week guests of the series will instruct us in something new and interesting about fly-fishing. These guests will include well-known fly-fishing celebrities, authors, regional experts as well as little-known fly fishers who understand a specific water system or tactic that we can all learn from. We are taking a 3 -dimensional approach to education. Clear and concise above water instruction, animations to help explain a specific point or tactic, and stunning underwater videography.

Additionally, it is important to know that this series will provide information about fly-fishing for all species of fish in North America. Whether cold or warm water, or even salt water - we will bring you instructional information that will help you to enjoy this sport to the greatest extent possible. Like the Federation of Fly Fishers mandate - All Fish, All Waters. Additionally, we make efforts to produce episodes that are based on fishing in locations that are accessible and affordable. Places we can all get to. Each season we will do several shows based on destinations that we all dream of within the United States and Canada. But the bulk of each seasons episodes will be taped in places you can readily and affordably get to by car or plane.

We ask that you help us to develop and groom The New Fly Fisher by providing us with feedback about what you like, dislike and want to see. If it is feasible and obtainable, we will do our best to try and incorporate your ideas into the series. We sincerely thank you for watching our series and coming to our website.

Cheers,
