09 Jan Favorite Fly Fishing Movie

Low & Clear

Even though I’ve only seen the trailer, this could already be my favorite fly fishing movie. Can’t wait until the release.

As a writer, I constantly imagine how I’d frame, present, and detail the better days on the water. In a strange way, and even though it’s a movie and not a book, this looks like something I’d write. I have actually imagined the premise to a degree.

Although we’re different in most ways from the subjects of this movie, my good friend Spencer Higa, of Falcon’s Ledge Lodge, and I have spent hundreds if not thousands of days on the water. Our experiences, ways of fishing, and a lot of inside jokes and jabs are just ours. For us fly fishing has been much more than chasing trout dressed in funny pants. Perhaps someday we’ll chronicle it in similar fashion, me with a pen and he with a camera. What do you say Spence? It’s at least a good reason for “research”.

Anyway, check out the Low & Clear trailer:
