Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival 08.10.18

Welcome to the latest edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival, in which we scour the Web for the best fly-fishing videos available. It was a pretty light week for new productions, but we’ve discovered 10 videos with a decidedly homegrown feel. All but one are from right here in North America, and the focus is one trout, trout, and trout (with a pinch of grayling).

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 Orvis fly-fishing video theater: The Tug.

We kick things off with a cool video about the native brook trout of Maine, shot in and around the town of Millinocket

Trout streams are fountains of youth for 86-year-old Joe Humphreys–a man who was born to fly-fish, lives to teach, and strives to pass on a respect for our local waters. check out this great trailer for an upcoming documentary.
