Welcome to an all new edition of the Orvis News Friday Fly-Fishing Film Festival! Every 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 thirteen great videos that will transport you from Sweden to South America and from Wisconsin to Wyoming, as these filmmakers explore issues of legacy, conservation, and simple beauty.
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 gorgeous video and guitar performance from our friend Håvard Stubø of Jazz and Fly Fishing. Listen to his interview with Tom on last week’s podcast.
