Welcome to our latest edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival, in which we scour the Web for the best fly-fishing videos available. This week’s collection features an even dozen videos from some pretty cool places, with a ton of saltwater and carp action.
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.
And don’t forget to check out the awesome all-new, improved Orvis fly-fishing video theater: The Tug. As of today, there are more than 525 killer videos on the site!
See you next week with a fresh set of films!

This video from our pal Dan Decibel is overly long, but it gives you a sense of how much fun it would be to hang out with the Skinny Water Culture guys for a couple of days.
OMG! Our first-ever video from the Canary Islands, off the coast of Morocco, where they’ve got some killer fishing for stillwater carp.
We don’t often get videos from Tasmania, which is one of the world’s great trout-fishing destinations. Check out these beastly trout caught in very shallow water.
