Great videos. A little disappointed the projection was not HD quality and was washed-out. The video content was quite enjoyable however. I will be going next year.

Thanx for the feedback, please keep it coming, and honest (such as the HD comment above). I really enjoyed this, I think it was a huge success. Not only did Andrew Ladd from the Jets join us, so did Dustin Byfuglien, making a great event even better!

Cant remember all the titles, but it was about ten shorter films including: Red like Winter: fishing for monster Redfish in Lousianna marsh Black Tailed Devils: fishing for Permit Zero2Hero: musky hunting a backcountry excursion in New Zealand for browns/bows fly fishing for mako sharks off San Diego coast bait and switch for Marlin/billfish road trip thru Mexico-marlin/other flats fish
I think the majority of films dealt with other gamefish (non-trout) and the unique fisheries across NA and the world. Believe there was only 1 film on trout.
I think Ladd was invited to the event, and I guess Byfuglien just tagged along. Ladd does not FF, Dustin fishes dont think FF.

Looks like I'll be giving lessons to both of them. Dustin is also coming out on the guided day of fly fishing to try his luck.

A buddy & I are planning a serious Muskie fly outing in the spring. We got a real kick out of the Wisconsin guys who live very fruggally all year to take the summers off for Muskie fishing. While sitting at the breakfast table dressed in fishing finery one of the guys said something to the effect of ........... "I don't know what wer're doing today but there's a good chance that we're going fishing". That brought a good laugh from everyone.
