Finally, a Fly Fishing Video That More Than Lives Up to the Hype

by Tom Chandler on March 23, 2009 · 7 comments

Why is it we need a commercial from a newspaper to truly explore the reasons we fly fish (hint: it involves a bikini):

San Antonio Express – Fly Fishing from Adam Richard Jones on Vimeo.

(found via that guy at Taunted by Waters who has too much time on his hands, but it turns out Moldy Chum had it first. Too bad I don’t do video searches.)

This is precisely why I practice dropping my backcast almost the whole time I’m fly fishing. Sure. That’s the ticket. Tom Chandler(Quote)
