Stories and accounts from exiting and fascinating fly fishing destinations

Don't forget the GFF podcast

Pretty in pink

Sunrise: We only had a few takes and caught nothing - but we had a wonderful sunrise, saw a seal and three porpoises hunting close to the beach. The best way to get away from stress and daily routine and do nothing else than relax. What a morning!

My Time on the Mountain

Rocky Mountain High: Gaining 2,500 feet in altitude and hiking over 28 miles wasn't the tough part of this trip of a lifetime for first time GFF author Shane Murphy. It was resisting the temptation to fish every inch of the abundance of trout-filled water in the 4 days he spent in the Colorado backcountry. If you decide to fish the Colorado high country, Shane offers his description of the trip and shares tactics & flies you shouldn't forget.

Lake fishing in Sweden

Stillwater: Hans Jacob, a good friend of mine, has been going to some lakes in Sweden for many years, and asked whether some of us wanted to join him on another summer fishing trip.

Sailfish on the Fly

Vela: Tom Gorman admits that he's brought a 12-wt. outfit along on fishing trips to various parts of the world where sailfish are present, but the opportunity for him to present a fly to a sail just never seemed to happen. Until during his recent trip to Guatemala.

Salmon and Lobster

Landlocked: The aim on this trip was to explore and flyfish several rivers in the Moosehead Lake area of northwest Maine, about 50 miles from Quebec. Moosehead Lake is 40 miles long and 20 miles across at its widest. Area rivers, several of which flow into or out of the lake, hold landlocked salmon, large brook trout, and mammoth smallmouth bass.
