Welcome to a new edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival, in which we scour the Web for the best fly-fishing videos available. We have a great selection this week, sixteen more videos that will take you to amazing angling destinations. The Swedes are in the hizzee, for sure.
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 in regularly at The Tug, the Orvis online video theater. See you next week with a fresh set of films!
We kick things off with a killer trailer for an upcoming film called :Stream Fishing Addiction,” which will be part of the 2014 IF4. Just under a minute of gorgeous footage.
Our old friend (and former Orvis rod designer) Matt Calderaro shows off some of the amazing fly fishing in Slovenia.
By now, pretty much every angler knows that there’s wonderful saltwater fly fishing in Cuba, but here’s some more evidence.
The opening shots of this video from Montana’s Bighorn are worth the price of admission. But then come the big trout, as a bonus.
Some great small-stream fishing in Colorado, filmed on a tributary of the Gunnison. The fish are pretty small but beautiful.
Here’s a pretty cool look at fly fishing for natal yellowsfish in South Africa. The landscape is remarkable, and the rivers look perfectly suited for the fly rod.
Captain Quinn and his cohort want everyone to know that they are revolutionizing the sport of fishing.
Here’s a young Finnish angler with a love of pike and camera trickery.
Our friends at Skinny Water Culture served up this very short look at some of the highlights of their fall on the water, featuring SUPs, redfish and tarpon.
This season-end roundup from Sweden features some gorgeous scenery and one great shot of a surface strike.
There are no trophies here, but the video does a great job of capturing a day in the salt when you have to work hard for whatever fish you can get.
Mid June on the Kharlovka & Litza Rivers on the Atlantic Salmon Reserve featured some unseasonably high water, but these anglers were still able to get into some beautiful fish.
The Swedes really pulled out the stops this week, and here’s another from Södra Lappland.
This is a little long, but it features some great shots of bonefishing on Christmas island. . .oh, and a “lovely kiss.”
This isn’t the world’s best video, but it really showcases all the different opportunities for anglers in Swedish Lappland.
A group of friends make annual trips to fly fish for steelhead traveling by pontoon boats on the Grande Ronde River in search of headspace and the big game fish of fresh water angling.
It was great!
Great collection of videos. Thanks!!!
love watching these
What was the species of fish in that Slovenia Video. I saw a rainbow or two and some greyling. Where those other trout just crazy looking browns?
