The Weekly Five - 19
Will Denver fly tiers go hairless?
The Weekly Five #19 is out with links to the latest fly fishing industry news, packaged for earnest anglers everywhere.
The northern half of New Zealand’s South Island contains world class brown trout fisheries – as evidenced by this recently released YouTube video, shot and edited by the legendary Todd Moen, featuring Brian O’Keefe, and guided by (always enthusiastic) Stefano Bonazza.
Those of us who grew up devouring the insightful writings of Swisher & Richards, Selective Trout and Fly Fishing Strategy (signed copy), will lament the passing this week of renowned author and angler, Doug Swisher, aged 91. Thank you for your sage advice during my formative angling years, Doug.
The City and County of Denver is set to decide on Initiated Ordinance 308 this year banning fur and potentially some fly tying materials. Colorado Trout Unlimited is urging Denver’s fly tiers (and cowboy hat wearers) to vote NO.
Cooper & Matt at No Name Lodge have just sourced their sixth 17-foot Maverick skiff, gearing up to run two Puerto Rico locations in Salinas (Permit-oriented) and Boqueron (Tarpon) this season.
If you’re planning to fly into Mexico for some Tarpon practice, consider booking with Pedro Figueroa Coral, the highly recommended San Felipe Fish Whisperer. Take a mate and you’ll pay as little as USD$190 per angler (two anglers per boat).
