Classic Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival 09.13.24: Friggatriskaidekaphobia Edition!
Welcome to the first Friday the 13th edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival of 2024. I am offsite today, so this is a classic edition from a few years ago. 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 fourteen glorious fly-fishing videos, with destinations from Cape Cod to Saskatchewan, and from Swedish Lapland to Chile.
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 cool trailer for a film by Gilbert Rowley, which was part of the International Fly Fishing Film Festival (IF4).
And here’s a trailer from the Fly Fishing Film Tour (f3t). This film is about a woman I met at Wollaston Lake Lodge two summers ago, and she is as authentic as they come.
Here’s a short, sweet look at winter fishing in Utah.
They got stripahs out they-ah on The Cape.
Anglers Sanna Koljonen and Emilie Björkman met up along the Lainio river in Swedish Lapland for some days of no-nonsense fishing for Atlantic salmon.
Just a half a minute of sweet bull-trout action from young Max Rhulen.
Another doozy of a trailer from the IF4, this one about chasing giant brook trout in Labrador.
The dudes from Carpe Diem had a tough time getting this beautiful trout to eat.
Dou you like to be stoked? The folks from f3t are here to help.
This video highlights the excitement of a float trip down a trout-filled river in Chile.
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, the grayling won’t eat your dry flies. You must embrace the nymph.
You can get into a lot of fish–and trouble–in just three days fishing in Yellowstone National Park.
The Atlantic salmon action on Russia’s Belousiha River looks pretty amazing.
Finally, here’s a great, longish video about a group of guys who head to Canada to chase bull trout and cutthroats.

Blood on the marquee. Perfect.
Some of us would appreciate not promoting anything having to do with Russia these days.
Some of us would appreciate you not bringing politics to a fly fishing blog.
