Too often, when a non-sporting magazine does an article about fly fishing, they present it as something it isn’t—extreme or exclusive of something.

The result is this ruminative and beautiful video about why anyone would do such a thing as to throw fur and feathers at trout. Shot on the Eucumbene River in the Snowy Mountains of Australia, this video offers no hero shots, but plenty to think about.
