While Darin only mentions what Ed caught, the only reason Ed caught was because of Darin!

Many thanks to my good friend for teaching, coaching.

The Lost World Of Mr. Hardy

Recently, I was asked to preview and then review the film, The Lost World Of Mr. Hardy. After watching the film for the first time, I was struck by the purity and Hardy passion for creating high quality products for the angling community. With its roots in Alnick, England, the Hardy Brothers set the standard for creating and manufacturing exceptional fishing tackle. In the same way, the producers of this film have done an exceptional job of capturing the history of the Hardy family and bringing to life their, until now, untold story. This DVD is a must see for any angler wanting to learn more about the history of rod building, fly reel construction, and the personalities that pioneered modern angling development. Look for The Lost World Of Mr. Hardy in your local fly shop or online where DVDs are sold.

 

The Lost World Of Mr. Hardy is produced by Trufflepig Films. You can visit them at www.thelostworldofmrhardy.com

Fly Shop Posts

If you are looking to fly fish in places like Oak Creek Canyon or Lees Ferry, AZ, and you are staying in the the Flagstaff area, there are only a few fly shop options. While on a family trip to Flagstaff for some winter fun (sledding and skiing), we visited Babbitt's Flyfishing Specialists in the Old Town area. It's a nice little Orvis shop that even includes the typical fly shop dog. My kids pointed him out after I walked right past him, lying in his comfortable chair. Grant, the guy behind the counter, was very helpful and engaging, two traits that every person in the retail fly fishing industry needs to master. We enjoyed our visit to the shop, but I quickly became jealous when Grant mentioned he was heading up to Lees Ferry the next day. I suspect he wanted to get in some last minute fly fishing in before the El Nino driven storm will drop up to 8 feet of snow on the area.

I recommend visiting the shop and stock up for your Northern Arizona fly fishing adventures. Here's how to find them:

Babbitt's Flyfishing Specialists
15 E. Aspen Ave
Flagstaff, AZ 86001
928-779-3253

Have you ever listened to a blog?

We have added a feature to the Virtual Fly Guides Blog. Courtesy of www.iSpeech.org , every blog post will have a "Listen" button. When the button is clicked, the text portion of the post will be read using word recognition technology. This feature is beneficial for a number of reasons, most important for those followers who may be sight impaired.

If there is no text associated with a particular blog post, the title will be read only.

Hope you enjoy this new feature.

Also, we are working on adding our Virtual Fly Guides Podcast to iTunes. We hop this will be finished soon.

Darin

To all of those members who initially received a "pending" response when attempting to join the VFG Bulletin Board, I have found the error and have fixed it. I activated all of those who were in the "pending" file. I hope this was not too much of an inconvenience. We look forward to all of your reports, photos, videos, and comments.
