Actually I would like some tips on how to sort my flies. How are you others sort yours? Wets, nymphs, dries and so on, together or in their own boxes, by season or any other way?

I have just begun tying muddler head flies, a bit tricky to get consistent. I have a patch of particularly stubborn deer hair that does...

Then I happened to stumble upon Sexyloops and some things came to light. Lasse: When I worked as a carpenter I had certain favourite hammers within the same given wei...

I just clicked the link to Fly Fishers Pro and their page title "What are the Best Fly Rods in 2019?" There I saw a summary of the pro's and cons of the rods tested. I guess that they want to sell rods so probably there is marketing bullshit mixed in their reviews but it made me curious. What makes ...

I am interested in attending the meeting. Bosnia sounds cool. But I think I might have to skip the trip to fish with Stefan this summer then, that I have loosely planned to do instead of messing around with Paul in the jungle. It depends on my economy.

That's fantastic mate!
