I bought this for my Dad's house on the coast. The representation online doesn't match the item exactly. The frames are alot smaller than I thought, and definitely alot more fragile. The entire thing is VERY heavy so you would need to know where your studs are in the wall in order to put it up. The quality of the frames are good, but the "flys" look cheap.

Kelly Gallup is the go to guy when it comes to Rocky Mountain Trophy Brown Trout fishing. If your coming anywhere out here in the Greater Yellowstone Area to fly fish, you owe it to yourself to get and study the book by Kelly and Bob Linneman, the primer Michigan guide, and also Kelly's DVD's on streamer fishing, finding "soft" water, particularly during runoff, which this year has extended into August. Also, you need to look at Kelly's streamer "system", how to tie and use streamers, in colors and shapes when working a trout river or stream, particularly when there is no dry fly hatch in progress. This stuff is practical, thorough, makes sense, and works. I use his methods on the Snake and Wind rivers and in the lakes of the Wind River Mountains. It really works if you want that big fish.

This video was shot and edited with professional equipment by someone who is a veteran in the instructional video industry. Harry is a veteran teacher and writer and his presentations always get rave reviews. I would put the quality of this DVD up against anything on the market.

Reading the water and showing actual fishing techniques on many kinds of trout streams is the great part of this DVD. This is very informative and sure to change my techniques. Harry is so enthusistic and focused. That has to infect viewers, it did me. The photo work is good. This is a top notch educational DVD. If you put his ideas to work in your fishing, it is sure to increase your catch and make your time more enjoyable.

If you are looking for information on fly fishing... look elsewhere. This is a badly photographed and produced video and not worth your time.

I have been fishing for about 2 years and only just started using a fly rod. So for me I found this dvd to be extremely helpful. In my experience as a fisherman, the most frustrating part has been the question "Where are the fish?" This video answers that question. You find out were you can expect brookies, rainbows, browns and cut throats to be on small mountain streams (like I fish), medium sized rivers and the big rivers like out west. There are plenty of tips on which types of flies to use, which cast works best in which situation. There's info on which gear works best when. After I hit eject on this dvd I was ready to drop in on a nice pool and catch some trout!!!!!!!

I was tired of opening my hdl, usps, ups and fedex boxes with my kitchen knife. I bought this knife, and it works, metal is good so it is sharp and it cuts well for a long time before you need to sharp it again in a wet stone 1000 grid ore 6000 grid. For my use, the ergonomic of the knife is really good, the size is good, it is strong, it will work for years and years for me

As with other Gerber knives, the Gerber 30-000176 Epic Knife, Serrated Edge arrives very sharp and has an easy edge to maintain. The weighting is handle biased and when held there is a thumb grip just in front of the handle which is well placed. This knife does not fall into the category of a large fixed blade, rather it is the size of a non-folding pocket knife (see photo comparison with the Gerber 22-01589 Big Rock Camp Knife). The sheath allows for mounting on either side (lefties or righties) and smartly secures the blade within. One weak point is the "sheath" due to the difficulty of pushing the blade into it without cutting blade-side of the sheath. I would guess that after 6 months to a year of use the blade-side of the sheath will be weakened because the blade nicks it as it is pushed in. This is the reason it is 4 out of 5 stars. Overall, it is a good introductory knife for those who wish to have a small fixed blade, however do not be fooled as to its size. The Big Rock Camp Knife is a good alternative for those who wish for a larger cutting area.

I think anyone who ever contemplates life would enjoy this film but for me, being a flyfisher and lover of rivers, it really resonated someplace deep inside. The performances are outstanding all around, especially the job Brad Pitt does. He really makes you believe he could and would jump right into being Paul, his character. Of course it's not all fishing and scenery but a lot deeper than that. The irony and pain of the truth...that no matter how much you love your family members and no matter how hard you try to help them, sometimes they don't want the help but only want to feel the love that comes from it being offered. So no matter which angle you view this film, it is at once visually beautiful, thoughtfully poignant and multi-faceted. It has much relevance to our everyday lives and I guess for me that quality is what a great film should possess. Like the book, a classic...

One of the most beautiful films I've seen in my life. The natural scenery of Montana is sublime!

This is one of the best movies about growing up in a challenging natural world.

Set in Montana between 1910 and 1935, the story reflects on the communication gap between two brothers and their minister father, all of whom love fly-fishing. I think this is one of the most visually beautiful movies to stream across the screen in a long time. A simple and powerful movie and a timeless tail that speaks to everyone.

The young folk might find this movie too slow moving for them. However, anyone who appreciates the people of the greatest generation will enjoy the deep reaching relationships in this film. I'm glad I have it in my movie library. It's worth watching again.

Her approach differs a little to that of many world class fly fishers but the end result is unmistakably "as good as it gets". A highly informative teaching/learning tool, this DVD takes pride of place in my collection.

This is the best fly fishing instructional video I have seen. Joan explains the processes of casting in a very clear, concise manner. The video is produced exceptionally well and is a pleasure to watch. I have been fly casting for over 40 years and still can get refresher tips from this video. I have recommended it to many people that I know. The Queen of Fly Casting still reigns!

After reading Joan Wulff's Dynamics of Fly Casting, I decided to obtain the video. the video is invaluable and precis in showing the correct way for a begineer to fly cast,from start to finish it is a great help and benefit.

I am beginner fly fisherman and I found these basics very helpful in getting started.

Joan Wulff is one of those people with natural teaching skills. The DVD is really easy to follow. She explains many basic way of casting and gives you advice on how to practise at home. I think that in order to really learn how to cast you need a river and a bush at an annoying place, but in order to have a fast start Joan Wulff's DVD is superb. I would highlight the word dynamics from the DVD's title. She really explains the physics of casting, and making you understand rather than showing you and prompt you to memorize I think is her way to give us wings. Wings to explore and learn by ourselves, and who knows, perhaps to improve the current technique. After watching the DVD several times, practicing in the garden 2 or 3 evenings and going out fishing half a dozen times, my expert fly-fishing partner is confortable enough to fish few meters away from me without having the fear of been hooked. I think watching Joan Wulff's DVD is a good starting point, at least it worked for me.

Bought these for my grandson. He loves fishing. Makes his own flies. He said this gave him a real assortment. Price was right!
