A highly raised thumbs up to that lovely little gadget placed on his jacket to stop the line falling in the water. Highly effective!
Yet again, I am highly in awe of Kasper's photographs. Apart from being slightly jealous of his gift to capture the picture, the whole picture and nothing but the picture, so help me god, the article was a great read and made me knock off a few rather gawdy but juicy pike flies...

Great article. Wish I'd read it before I selected and cut my floating head.
I found this site while looking at different fly rods. Really enjoyed the reviews and unbiased commentary. Could you possibly supply me with a website address for Harvest Fly Rods?
Fantastic wallpapers. Really keep the winter chills at bay waiting for the season to re-open.
Thanks
Good detail in this picture, nice and sharp.
GREAT!
Hi Martin,
I love this new medium. Togehter with the pictures it is as if I am back at your beatifull coastline. The sound of the waves, the walking on the rocky beaches, the sound of casting the rod, the ratling of the shootingline-shootinghead connection throught the guides. Just perfect.
Can't wait to return to your lovely country.

i really like that fly. how many fish have u caught, and what species of trout have u caught the most, off the fly?
I found out this page extremely interesting, both texts and photos were really exhaustive on the argument. really a precious work
wonderfull photo !!!
Finally, an article that captures why I like to stand in the Danish icy salt throughout the toughest months. It's not all about catching fish but enjoying the whole experience. No matter what the season, there's plenty to see and do and for me...Winter brings dreams of the coming season.
There's something to marvel at after fishing on a chilly winters day all rounded off with a hot shower, good hearty meal and seeing the smile on my sons face as my cheeks and nose tingle with life!
I am a secretary of a trout lake in england,i found your site very interesting.
Bob, I'am willing to try Zipcast because it has to be better than the sticky stuff I am currently using. On Tom's e-mail to you he stated that Zipcast uses Teflon inplace of Silicone. On Zipcast webpage it states it uses Silicone in the make up of its product! So what is the story?
Thanks in advance for your responce, KLS
Nice picture, that compass is too beautiful to take out on the water!
Excellent description, a very enjoyable read even for advanced fly-fishers.
Martin,
Your second podcast was soooo cool. Sitting in the evening in Southern California, listening to your descriptions, brings up memories of my Baltic Sea days!
Keep up the good work, it might not always be perfect, but it is different and makes my time spent on your website worthwhile.

Great, great page, I really enjoy the articles and reviews. Love the chilly flies. I will try tying it and use it on catching all sort of NW salt and freshwater species.
I decided to take you at your word and order a bottle. To make a long story short, Zipcast is easily the best line cleaner/treatment I've used in my 40 or so years fly fishing. It made my brand new 3M Mastery even better and put the "zing" back in two of my 4 year old Rio lines. Good stuff. Thanks for the honest review.
Ken,
Unfortunately we don't have the contact information for Dick Stewart. You may try to contact one of the many publishers he has worked with like The Lyons Press or Globe Pequot Press. That's the best we can do.
Martin
If possible, I would like to contact Dick Stewart. I have most of his books and am an avid fly tyer. I would like to write him and ask him a question about a particular pattern. I would appreciate it if you could send me his mailing or email address. Than you, Ken Shewmaker
Dear Martin,
I like the Podcasting very much. I listen to it on my computer with the pictures in front of me. I live in Holland (in the north province Friesland) And also here is every small water frozen. Although we haven't much trout in this area, I like to fish for roach with the flyrod.
Greetings,

I still use a sailing jacket that I've had for >10 years. It's a Douglas Gill Pilot jacket - more of a bomber style than a full coat. Its lightweight, breathable and completely waterproof. Doesn't rust either (and it's not some garish colour either but a dark blue). Fits the bill perfectly. You'll need a hat tho' as there's no hood and the pockets are only small with zippers.
COOL~BEANS This will help me to Tie Tubes quik
Thank you
