Thanks Ben. I have recently ventured into the world of DSLR video....and loving it! I do most of my color grading in Adobe After Effects and put the videos together in a program called Powerdirector.

Hey Bob, The flies I have covered in these crazy tying videos aren't actually "My" flies. I have simply made tying videos of other peoples' patterns. BUT you can get pretty much all of the flies I have done videos on from Feather-Craft. http://www.feather-craft.com

Is there a website where I can purchase your articulated streamers? I plan to try flyfishing for pike this summer.

Thanks

I came across your videos on youtube and have to say 'wow', this stuff is incredible. I don't know if you're better at fishing or video making, but keep up the great work! Just out of curiosity, what cameras/program do you use for editing? Also, if you feel the musky bug again send me an email (tolle141@gmail.com) and I'll give you all the info you need to get a few. I know of two lakes up in that Vermillion area where I can guarantee a fish or a few daily. No 45 inchers, but to check it off the list there's no better place. Flies for smallmouths and walleyes are an added bonus...

Great site and good job teaching your boys to fish. I have a couple young flyfisher girls (Grandaughters) myself ages 7&9. Talk about great fishing partners.

I'm finally retiring back to the NW after many years. My brother, an expert fly fisherman by any criteria (fishes every trophy stream in the U.S. -- his bad day is < 25 fish 16" - 20" or none over 20+ inches w/ pictures to prove it), has talked me into fly fishing after 40 years. My professional pilot discipline drives me to a manual to get all basics and techniques deeply ingrained before taking stick or fly rod in hand. I looked at every book on DigitalTags.net before buying this one and a couple others. I immediately fell in love with this book and have been through it several times. I was impressed with Chris Hansen's mastery of the subject and his ability to communicate its full range from thinking about fly fishing to cleaning your gear after an outing. I asked my brother (other fisherman literally stop fishing to watch him catch fish) to critique it to see if I'd been fooled. He thought the content was as well written and comprehensive as I did. He said it was all anyone needed to become a happy, successful fly fisherman (assuming they fish where the fish are!) to the intermediate level. We both considered the illustrations and pictures superb. It's perfect for me . . . I suspect for you too. Thanks to this book, I'm doing well on my local park lake and looking forward to my first real fishing in Montana next year. I'm ready with the right gear and basics learned. I'm confident and highly motivated . . . now show me the fish. I extend my special thanks to Billy at DigitalTags.net. Buy this book and you won't be disappointed.
