Czech nymphs

Does anyone remember the early to mid 90's? The rage in the US, at least among tyers of trout flies, was Polish woven nymphs. Fast forward to the dawn of the new century and these articles and flies have all but disappeared? Were they a fad? What happened?

Largely painless server move

How to Start the New Year's Right

Fishing for Hawg browns and 'bows in western tailwaters

New Zealand Trophy Waters

Seeing this footage of large trout in deep streams rising to nymphs - naturals and artificials - really stirs my appetite to go to New Zealand

Best wishes

Greetings from the GFF partners

First snow in DK, First skiing in CO!!

First snow and New Zealand

We had the first snow in Denmark this night

Re: Czech Nymphing

I tied up a bunch of Czech Nymphs last year following Oliver Edwards' directions. They are easy flies to tie - given the proper materials - and look great.

Czech nymphing

Great Czech site on the subject

Bonefish Bitters

I started using the Bonefish Bitters while fishing on my own in Mexico. I wrote: "I continued using my Bitters and caught many more fish on them the following days. After two weeks of fishing I felt like a champion and was very satisfied with myself."

Disk Space Blues; Yippee for New Year's!!

Martin's disk space rebuttal: I agree. But let's think about New Year's!!!

Disk Space Blues

It happens every other month - GFF runs out of disk space

Before the talkies

One of the precursors for GFF was all B/W

Nymph Project

Got hooks?

Mass Production, one at a time

Sometimes it doesn't pay to do things ahead of time

The old stuff

Prince Nymphs

Mike Hogue drops by and offers us some variations of one of the all time popular trout flies - the Prince Nymph. By adding "a little flash and glamour", we have a few new things to try the next time we're getting skunked and want to try something different.

Re: Winter waders

The case for neoprene

Re: Winter waders

The case for neoprene

Winter waders

In spite of what most people think, breathable waders are well suited for winter fishing

Lamiglas Appalachian

On your knees, casting to a small spot fifteen or twenty feet away. Float the line behind you and then "flick" the line foward. Man, I love this rod for that kind of fishing. It's like it knows what I want to do and casts a perfect narrow loop with impressive speed.

So this is Xmas..?!

It's unbelievable! The season is almost coming to an end...

Arctic Runner

Thinking and not doing

Great ideas, wrong priorities

Earning my luck

Too many rods?

How many rods does one guy need?

Book Addiction

Do I need a 12 step program?

Re: Lucky Me!

Not quite as lucky

Sneak Peek

Some new stuff coming up

Tying Contemporary Saltwater Flies

There is no question that saltwater fly fishing is a booming industry - at least compared to the much older pastime of trout fishing.

Imitative Fly Tying, Techniques and Variations

Ian Moutter, author of Tying Flies in the Paraloop Way, returns with his second book: Imitative Fly Tying.

Fly Rodding the Coast

No doubt that Ed Mitchell is an authority on coastal fishing. Judging from his book titles alone makes him one of the top experts on the subject.

Lucky me!

I fish - a lot, actually!

Mad dogs...

Mad dogs and Englishmen go fishing in Denmark in October

Paralysis by Analysis

How much do you care about your casting stroke?

GFF needs your input!!

Our 10 year anniversary is coming up...how do we celebrate?!

End of the rainbow

In Denmark fishing for escaped sea farm rainbows is possible when a cage breaks. The sport is good and you can catch - and kill - several prize size fish in the 50-60 cenimetre or 20-24" range in a day, helping removing them from nature.

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
