... Read more
Why Fly Fishing is a 31-minute DVD created to explain and share the grace of this age-old sport. As a sport, fly fishing has a rich history with many of its own icons. Some people are not aware that the passion for fly fishing among its participants easily equals or surpasses even the most fanatical "team sport" (i.e. football, baseball, basketball). Fly fishing is an individual event with a level playing field that welcomes all comers. Everyone enters as a beginner, there are no age limits and progress is measured by self-satisfaction. This is a DVD every dedicated fly fisher should own, as well as beginners and even people who might be curious about why practitioners are so dedicated. Not only does it make fly fishers feel good about what they love, but, for the first time, they have a beautiful film that explains to non-fly fishing friends and family why the sport is so seductive. It shows, as words alone never could, why fly fishers become "low-level fanatics" (John Gierach's words) and behave the way they do. All profits from Why Fly Fishing DVD sales go directly towards the American Museum of Fly Fishing to help further the understanding of and appreciation for the history and traditions of the sport of fly fishing by preserving, displaying, studying and interpreting the artifacts, art and literature of the sport. "By exploring the many facets of the sport -- the athletic, the intellectual, the scientific and the artistic -- this film shows the deep satisfaction and fun anglers experience. All this is seen through the eyes of some of fly fishing's foremost practitioners -- Joan Wulff, Nick Lyons, James Prosek, Flip Pallot, John Gierach, the Revel brothers, Keith Fulsher and Diana Rudolph. This film is also a great way to introduce the sport to others whom fly fishers hope will now understand this obsession and who then might become interested and participants themselves. It also helps everyone truly appreciate why the love for it is so strong." --Gardner Grant, Trustee of the American Museum of Fly Fishing

In all of my years fishing, I've recognized that most of bass fishing's intelligentsia tends to focus on the bass and its behaviors to teach the angler how to better catch them. While this is important, too little time is devoted to helping the angler to understand the angler, and his/her responsibilities toward success. Anglers must have a better understanding of the limitations and governing factors of the sport, and of the common sense truths that promote the development of an indestructible confidence needed to execute the demands of fishing.Do you find that confidence in your bass angling skills is erratically elusive? Whether you're a seriously devoted tournament angler or an aspiring novice, every bass angler experiences this universal problem. And there are very specific and justifiable reasons for it. Fishing with Confidence addresses these reasons, and lights the way to more prosperous and confident fishing. Fishing with Confidence goes beyond the over exemplified and often redundant 'tips and techniques,' and in groundbreaking fashion tells the story of bass fishing straight. Author John Mark Warren uses reasoned and sound fishing principles, his 35 years of insight, the wisdom and truth from professional anglers, and an exposure of a market driven media to create a template that ensures lasting self confidence in every aspiring and passionate bass angler. John has faced the challenges that every serious angler faces. His uncompromising standard of truth and accuracy shines a new light on just what makes good anglers more proficient and confident anglers. So, when you are done looking for manufactured remedies at your local bait shop, try honing your craft with Fishing with Confidence. 'Need to know everything that you need to know about bass fishing in order to return home grinning, and not grouching? Just absorb John Mark Warren's Fishing With Confidence! - Uncle Homer Circle, Award winning writer, published author, and Bass Fishing Icon

You will catch more waves than a shortboard with the thicker and wider dimensions of a "Turning Point" hybrid fish surfboard. It combines stability with a unique design perfect for carving turns like your shortboard friends!The bottom features a single concave (see picture on product page) for speed and drive down the line, allowing you to spend less time working the wave for speed and more time shredding it up.The swallow tail makes for a wider surfboard in the back giving you more surface area in the wave and making it easier to to stand up. The cool thing about the swallow tail... it's easy to turn once you're up. Because the fins are set more to the edges of the board it makes the turn radius tight and responsive. Allowing you to turn up and down the wave without slamming on the edges.The pointed nose puts almost unlimited turning potential in your grasp while the aggressive rocker gives you the ability to paddle into waves from knee high to double overhead.The epoxy EPS construction gives you unbeatable durability and a super light feel allowing you to float better, paddle faster and ultimately catch more waves then your traditional construction. This is a proven shape with cutting edge construction... you can't go wrong.A perfect surfboard for the larger surfer looking for that shortboard feel but with more volume and length, or as a great transition board for someone that wants to move down to a shortboard from a longboard but isn't ready for a large length and width jump.

The Fly Fishing Anthology features glorious artwork and more than twenty stories and essays celebrating, reminiscing, and bemoaning the high sport of fly fishing. This first-of-its-kind book is divided into six themed chapters. The first chapter features stories of initiationnone painless and all memorable. Chapter two explores the glorious vistas of fly fishing country. In the third chapter, our writers go nuts for trout, that highest echelon of game fish. Chapter four examines the seductive art of fly-tying. The fifth chapter is devoted to reminiscences, and the final chapter defends the great sport of fly fishing. More than half of the pieces take jabssome gentle, some sharpat the sport of fly fishing and the men and women who aim to master it. Highlights include John Gierach’s Keillor-esque vision of a sleepy Colorado trout fishing town jolted awake by the age of neoprene waders and Latin terminology, Charles Elliott fly fishing for the elusive bone-fish at the elbow of baseball great Ted Williams, and newcomer George Tichenor self-deprecating with cheerful aplomb as he practices casting a fly on the revered Willowemoc. The writing represents the best that fly fishing literature has to offer. In these pages, dry fly master George LaBranche argues with passionate conviction that dry fly fishing is the highest art of angling. Zane Grey waxes poetic on the wild, lonely beauty of his beloved West, and sports-writing genius Red Smith wrests a hilarious, epic tale out of an amateur fly tier’s first Silver Tip pattern. Of course, the fly fishing legends are present in these pages, including Cornelia "Fly Rod" Crosby, G. E. M. Skues, and Joan Salvato Wulff.

... Read more
In one of the enduring classics of fly-fishing literature, Terry Hellekson addresses everything from the history of fly fishing and fly-tying around the world, to fly-tying material and hooks. This newly revised and updated version offers the original two volumes combined in one hardcover edition to create the definitive book on fly-tying. This is not just another book on popular fly patterns, although it is the authority on those as well. Terry shares the insights and interviews with fly-tying greats of years past, along with the history of some of the popular individual flies and fly-tying vises, making this a great read. He also shares years of wisdom and knowledge on colors, fly-fishing techniques, and tricks of the trade on the best kinds of tools and materials to buy and where to find them. This new edition is organized into two clear parts: the first section deals with the origins of fly-fishing, the concepts of vision and perception of color, the tools and materials from which flies are created, and looks at species of mayflies, stoneflies, and caddisflies. The second section of the book progresses on to the other insect orders, terrestrials, and crustaceans, then delves into the specifics of streamers, shad flies, steelhead flies, and more. Even a fly-tying novice will be enthralled, with illustrations that clarify the patterns and a reader-friendly style.

... Read more
With his colorful tattoos and booming hip-hop sound track, Mike Iaconelli has turned the world of big-money competitive bass fishing upside down. In Fishing on the Edge, Iaconelli tells his own story–and it’s a whopper: a Philly-born, Jersey-bred Yankee who’s been stealing the spotlight from bass fishing’s traditionally all-Southern anglers, attracting fans and dominating one of the fastest-growing sports in America.How did Mike Iaconelli, a college-educated kid from New Jersey, come blasting into a sport dominated by old-school stars like Gary Klein, Kevin VanDam, and Denny Brauer? How did Mike, aka “Ike,” take a secret childhood passion and turn it into a profession, earning million-dollar sponsorships and a storm of media attention, ranging from ESPN’s SportsCenter to profiles in The New York Times and Esquire? While Mike has attracted both fans and foes on the tour, his success speaks for itself, especially his victory at the 2003 CITGO Bassmaster Classic, the Super Bowl of competitive fishing.Forty-four million Americans fish, but no one does it quite like Mike Iaconelli. In Fishing on the Edge, he lets you in on the secrets to his extraordinary success–how he developed his “power” fishing style, how he attacks the water, positions the boat, and perseveres through those days when the bass just aren’t biting. With sidebar tips that can be used by any fisherman–from using spinner baits to picking out the right rod to his no-fail “secret weapons”–this is an intensive, informative, and often raucous journey through the life of a brash young man destined to do for fishing what Tony Hawk did for the X Games: take the sport to a whole new level. At the same time, it’s the compelling first-person story of a man who prepared carefully every step of the way, kept notes on every fish he ever caught, and executed the perfect plan to get to the top.A tale of passion, competition, and extreme personality, Fishing on the Edge is a book for anyone who loves the sport of fishing, wants to turn a hobby into a career, or is simply fascinated by a man’s unstoppable drive to succeed.From the Hardcover edition.

... Read more
The first of the modern fishing films, shot in the wild panorama of 1970s Key West. As they fly fish in the aquatic wilderness of the Florida Keys, anglers and authors capture the essence of the sport in words and dramatic film footage. Colorful scenes of Key West from another era - with treasure hunters, smugglers, hippies and eccentrics - are background to stunning cinematography and tarpon fishing at its finest. Authors, Richard Brautigan, Tom McGuane and Jim Harrison join with legendary flats guides, Woody Sexton, Gil Drake and Steve Huff. Original music written and performed by Jimmy Buffett. "Tarpon is a gem and, frankly, a window on better days. Without a profound respect for tarpon, this celebration of their majestic power and the enchantment of their pursuit, could never have been made. Tarpon fishing was and is a dream, and this may be the only time it's been captured" - Thomas McGuane. "This long-lost gem of a film has acquired cult status in the flyfishing world, and with good reason. It has the most breathtaking footage of the tarpon-stalking experience that you'll ever see. Like the fish itself, this is a work of art" - Carl Hiaasen. "Tarpon is a timeless and beautifully executed film about life, sport and culture. You'll be moved, amused, outraged and, most of all, entertained" - Tom BrokawThis product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

Lake Brittle, Gardy’s Millpond, Powhatan Ponds, Keokee Lake
... Read more
Lake Brittle, Gardy’s Millpond, Powhatan Ponds, Keokee Lake, Lake Shenandoah... The number of lakes that offer great fishing in Virginia is substantial, from 3-acre Phelps Pond in Fauquier County to 50,000-acre Buggs Island Lake. Now trusted outdoorsman Bob Gooch has written the only comprehensive book on the state’s still-water fishing. Virginia has only two natural lakes but numerous impounded still waters that offer exceptional and diverse fishing. Thirty-two of these lakes are owned by the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, and managed specifically for fishing. The managers stock the lakes’ waters and monitor the various fish populations, adjusting fishing regulations as needed to ensure the desired balance of numbers and species. Other multipurpose lakes such as Buggs Island Lake, a flood-control reservoir, can also be fished, and these lakes are all listed in the last chapter.Anglers can visit nearly any of lakes covered in this guide for warm-water fishing for largemouth bass and bluegills. Many offer both black and white crappie, bullhead and channel catfish, chain and redfin pickerel, and fliers. And if your sights are set on pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, or muskellunge, this guide will direct you to the lakes with those harder-to-find fish – as well as a host of others, such as redear and redbreast sunfish, walleye, warmouth, yellow perch, even white bass.Ranging from the Northern Neck and the Northwest Mountains and Valley to Southside and Southwest Virginia to the Upper Piedmont and Coastal Plain, the book covers fifty-six lakes, one by one, illustrating many of them with maps. The bottom line: If it swims in Virginia still water, Bob Gooch can tell you where to find it.

... Read more
Carp anglers talk about watercraft all the time. But what exactly is that? Some would say it's applying understanding of the environment in which the carp lives and the fish itself to catch more of them. And how do we improve our watercraft? By studying how the behaviour of the carp changes as environmental variables fluctuate daily and seasonally. We can do this by spending time on the lake or river bank and by reading about it. Carp Fishing Science is unlike all other carp fishing books. It provides information which the angler can use in order to anticipate changes in the carp's behaviour, especially those related to nutrition and activity, therefore helping to improve the reader's watercraft. Jon Wood, marine biologist and experienced fish farm consultant, has written a book which looks at carp fishing from a very different point of view from all other publications; from that of the fish rather than the fisherman, which is really where it should be from. In Carp Fishing Science, he presents a distillation of more than two hundred scientific publications and has extracted the most valuable proven facts about the fish to allow the reader to know the animal in greater detail, modify strategies and put more fish on the bank. This book bridges a gap between that which has until now only been supposed and that which has been shown through scientific studies. The author delves into aspects of carp biology, fish physiology and environmental science in order to clarify some of the myths surrounding carp fishing and answers questions such as why and how carp feed, which substances have been shown to cause a positive feeding response to carp, how the fish uses each of its senses and how the nutritional requirements of the carp change through the year. If you are a carp angler, a carp producer, a bait maker, a fisheries student, or just someone who has always wanted to think like a fish, then this book should be in your collection.

... Read more
"The Pivot Fish", named because of the pivot type turns you get from the board instead of rail to rail, is a quad fin retro fish surfboard... Wide, Stable, and FAST. The ultimate wave catching, quick turning short surfboard.The fish surfboard is a one of the most unique designs when it comes to "wave catch-ability." This board maintains the width of a mini-longboard, but is much smaller in length. This helps maintain your stability while making it a cinch to paddle for a board this short.Nose V concave to single concave at the tail. Get the best of all worlds with this combination of designs. The "V" will help you turn quickly while the "single" at the tail is designed to channel water off the rails allowing you to generate speed and make some killer cut-backs. The quad fin setup is much quicker and faster than the twin fin setup typical of a "retro" fish so hold on while you race down the line.With either Epoxy EPS or Traditional glass construction you have a surfboard you can't pass up... Epoxy construction makes this fish surfboard lighter and stronger than a traditional glass construction fish. This makes the surfboard float better, paddle better and virtually indestructible (it's not really indestructible but pretty close). Traditional glass construction makes this surfboard more responsive than its epoxy counterpart, however it will be more prone to dings... a simple trade off for a purist.The Pivot Fish surfboard is perfect for the intermediate surfer, or someone who wants to move from a long board down to a short board.

... Read more
No brand of fly fishing challenges anglers more than stalking bonefish on tropical saltwater flats. Fly Fishing for Bonefish offers a definitive profile of this elusive fish and thoroughly dissects the skills needed to catch it. Brown shows how to find and see bonefish - how to spot feeding and mudding signs, the camouflage techniques the fish adopts, the effects of tide, temperature, and weather on where the fish will be and how it can be spotted. Then he gives helpful advice on how to fish cruising or tailing fish, which stripping techniques work best, how to set drag, and the most effective ways to strike and fight bonefish. An especially interesting section treats fly selection and design - with color plates of more than seventy patterns tied by some of today's most innovative fly developers, including Carl Richards, Craig Mathews, Jack Gartside, Jeffrey Cardenas, Lefty Kreh, Ben Estes, Tim Borski, Jim Orthwein, and many others. Brown also catalogs major bonefish destinations around the world. With its hundreds of color and black-and-white photographs (the color sections on how to spot fish are exceptionally valuable), dozens of line drawings by Bob White, and a crisp, authoritative, and extensive text, Fly Fishing for Bonefish is the definitive book on what may well be fly fishing's ultimate challenge. (7 1/4 X 9 1/2, 372 pages, color photos, b&w photos, maps, illustrations, diagrams, charts)

... Read more
This fly fishing video teaches you everything you need to know about catching trout on stonefly imitations including the various families of stoneflies, where they are found, when and how the trout feed on them and how to go about imitating them. It is the most complete fly fishing dvd ever done on this subject. Everyone loves to fish the larger, easy to see and easy to identify stonefly imitations. Presented correctly, at the right time and place, stonefly imitations can account for some of the largest trout taken. The stonefly nymph and adult stages of all the important species of stoneflies life cycles are covered. It includes scenes from stonefly hatches most anglers have never witnessed. All the proven techniques that bring success in imitating these flies are demonstrated in this fly fishing video. Of the various stages of the stonefly s life, the nymph is most important. By far, more stonefly, nymphs are eaten by trout than the full, grown adults. Most of all, in terms of importance, is the presentation of the stonefly nymph. Generally speaking, if you are fishing on or very near the bottom, you are fishing correctly. If not, it may not matter at all how close the imitation is, you are probably not going to do well at all. This fly fishing dvd shows you how to go about catching trout on imitations of both stages of life. Nymphs crawl to the shoreline and crawl out on the banks to emerge. This migration from their locations in the riffles and runs to the shore is the time they are most subject to being eaten by a trout. The trout may key in on this migration prior to a large hatch of stoneflies and position themselves nearer the banks than they normally do in any given stream. This means that the best time to fish the nymphs are prior to hatch although trout can be taken to some degree year round on nymphs. The adults mate on the ground and vegetation on the shore, not in the air like most other aquatic insects. During the day, stoneflies tend to stay hidden under leaves and limbs of streamside vegetation. They are generally not available to trout until they begin their eggs laying process. Most species dip their abdomens into the water to lay their eggs, although some specie may crawl into the water to lay their eggs and other laid them above the surface of the water. The eggs laying process usually occurs most often just before dark. The adults, like the nymphs, vary greatly in size and color. The shapes are all about the same, with a few exceptions. This means that often you can get by with attractor or suggestive imitations of the adults as long as the size and color are close. Specific or imitative patterns will probably work best in most cases, however.

"The Pivot Fish", named because of the pivot type turns you get from the board instead of rail to rail, is a quad fin retro fish surfboard... Wide, Stable, and FAST. The ultimate wave catching, quick turning short surfboard.The fish surfboard is a one of the most unique designs when it comes to "wave catch-ability." This board maintains the width of a mini-longboard, but is much smaller in length. This helps maintain your stability while making it a cinch to paddle for a board this short.Nose V concave to single concave at the tail. Get the best of all worlds with this combination of designs. The "V" will help you turn quickly while the "single" at the tail is designed to channel water off the rails allowing you to generate speed and make some killer cut-backs. The quad fin setup is much quicker and faster than the twin fin setup typical of a "retro" fish so hold on while you race down the line.With either Epoxy EPS or Traditional glass construction you have a surfboard you can't pass up... Epoxy construction makes this fish surfboard lighter and stronger than a traditional glass construction fish. This makes the surfboard float better, paddle better and virtually indestructible (it's not really indestructible but pretty close). Traditional glass construction makes this surfboard more responsive than its epoxy counterpart, however it will be more prone to dings... a simple trade off for a purist.The Pivot Fish surfboard is perfect for the intermediate surfer, or someone who wants to move from a long board down to a short board.

Covers gear and tackle, fly selection, casting, setting the hook, playing and releasing the fish, float fishing Insight into a wealth of fishing experience from one of the most well-known fly fishers in the sport today Illustrations by Dave Hall and photos by John Gierach Through his accounts on the water, author A. K. Best shares his lifetime of fly-fishing experience. "I have always thought that going fly fishing simply meant that you drove to the stream, strung up your rod, tied on a fly, looked for a rising trout, and then cast to it until you caught it. It does work out that way sometimes and it's a lot of fun. But other times, it gets a little more complicated and that's even more fun." It's these complications that A. K. deals with, untangles, and explains in his first book devoted to fishing.

For the subspecies of saltwater angler who insists on doing his fishing with flies, Kreh is the guru and this is the holy book. Now in its third revised edition, Fly Fishing in Salt Water first surfaced in the late '60s when the idea of fishing the seas with a fly for bluefish, stripers, bonito, and bigger game like tarpon and tuna was not only novel, it was sneered at. Fly-fishing in saltwater is still a relatively new frontier, but time has proven Kreh a visionary and the virtual father of the sport, and this how-to remains an essential part of a saltwater fly-angler's tackle. Why fish salt water with a fly? Because, says Kreh, it combines the best physical and cerebral aspects of fishing and hunting, with the added complication that "no stocked fish roam the seas." Unlike trout fishing ("Trout fishing writers have always tended to complicate a rather simple sport," carps Kreh), where the angler must understand from the start that trout in a pool are relatively stationary creatures that exist only on the food available in that pool, saltwater species are fish in transit, constantly on the move, often in schools, and they gulp down anything they run into. Kreh's bible begins by engraving that difference in stone. Then it patiently introduces you to the sport's basics step by step: the necessary tackle and how to care for it; technique; fly patterns; fish behavior; the long cast; understanding tides and where fish are likely located; and specifics of deepwater fishing, inshore fishing, and fishing at sea from boats. "The sea has always been a fascination to me, and the creatures in it offer the greatest challenge a fly rodder will ever know," writes Kreh. His unparalleled infectious enthusiasm--just look at the cover photo of the author: a happy man if ever there was one--and expertise make that challenge as reachable as it is alluring.

... Read more
Why Fly Fishing is a 31-minute DVD created to explain and share the grace of this age-old sport. As a sport, fly fishing has a rich history with many of its own icons. Some people are not aware that the passion for fly fishing among its participants easily equals or surpasses even the most fanatical "team sport" (i.e. football, baseball, basketball). Fly fishing is an individual event with a level playing field that welcomes all comers. Everyone enters as a beginner, there are no age limits and progress is measured by self-satisfaction. This is a DVD every dedicated fly fisher should own, as well as beginners and even people who might be curious about why practitioners are so dedicated. Not only does it make fly fishers feel good about what they love, but, for the first time, they have a beautiful film that explains to non-fly fishing friends and family why the sport is so seductive. It shows, as words alone never could, why fly fishers become "low-level fanatics" (John Gierach's words) and behave the way they do. All profits from Why Fly Fishing DVD sales go directly towards the American Museum of Fly Fishing to help further the understanding of and appreciation for the history and traditions of the sport of fly fishing by preserving, displaying, studying and interpreting the artifacts, art and literature of the sport. "By exploring the many facets of the sport -- the athletic, the intellectual, the scientific and the artistic -- this film shows the deep satisfaction and fun anglers experience. All this is seen through the eyes of some of fly fishing's foremost practitioners -- Joan Wulff, Nick Lyons, James Prosek, Flip Pallot, John Gierach, the Revel brothers, Keith Fulsher and Diana Rudolph. This film is also a great way to introduce the sport to others whom fly fishers hope will now understand this obsession and who then might become interested and participants themselves. It also helps everyone truly appreciate why the love for it is so strong." --Gardner Grant, Trustee of the American Museum of Fly Fishing
