Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival 09.14.18


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. This week, we’ve got an even dozen videos that offer a good mix of destinations, some saltwater action, and 50/50 on the Water content. From the mangroves of Cuba to the bull-trout streams of Alberta, and from the Coast of Texas to the chalstreams of southern England, there’s loads here to get you pumped for the weekend.

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 lovely video whose voice-over should sound familiar, and it tries to capture some of the deeper reasons we head to the river.
