Welcome to the latest edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival, in which we scour the Web for the best fly-fishing videos available. This week, I’m on vacation, so we serve up a classic dozen productions that will take you from northern Patagonia to Swedish Lapland and from Connecticut to British Columbia. We’ve got trout, salmon, and bass, but a dearth of saltwater action.
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 out the awesome Orvis fly-fishing video theater: The Tug. As of today, there are exactly 1,410 great videos on the site!
