Welcome to another edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival! Each week, we scour the Web for the best fly-fishing videos available and then serve them up for you to enjoy. This week, we’ve got an even dozen videos, featuring a variety of destinations. We are light on the saltwater and heavy on the trout, with killer videos from British Columbia to the Faroe Islands and from Maine to Wisconsin.
For best results, watch all videos at full-screen and in high definition. Remember, we surf so you don’t have to. But if you do stumble upon something great that you think is worthy of inclusion in a future F5, please post it in the comments below, and we’ll take a look.
We kick things off with a trailer for a film that follows fly-fishing guide Paula Shearer in search of bull trout and oversize cutthroat.

Ooh, more fishing with BABs (BigAssBobbers)! What a disheartening trend.
So good to see the delux edition of south eastern BC fishing featured. Great shop wonderful people, really there is no need to go past cranbrook and the great fishing in some sense of solitude. If you go further expect north to fish expect crowds along the easily accessible main highway and lots of fishing rafts full of anglers and some pretty hockey pokey outfitters.

Why?
Couldn’t agree more.
And not with the “why”
