New film release from us. TROUT BUM 3 - ICELAND

The forums are very quiet

The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF form is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Hi. [b:b413a65a44]TROUT BUM 3 - ICELAND [/b:b413a65a44]is on its way! The guys say it'll be ready and released march 2008! Some pretty spectacular char and brown trout fishing from the undiscovered highlands on Iceland in here.
View the trailer (Norwegian version) [url]http://www.thetroutbum.com/ORRETBOMS3.html[/url] (You [i:b413a65a44]have[/i:b413a65a44] to learn Norwegian :D ).

The first film [b:b413a65a44]TROUT BUM - FLYFISHING AS A WAY OF LIFE [/b:b413a65a44]filmed in 2001, was a huge success in magazine reviews and the start of everything.
This is the third film. More feeling than ever. EDIT: And I have to admit, even if I regularily fish the northern parts of Norway, and know many of them well, Iceland hammered me with personal records both when it comes to char and brownes...

All the best from André, with a #2 rod and a 6 pound char.

Nice footage André, looks like you guys had a lot of fun up there.
This sure brought back a lot of good memories, can't wait to see the whole film.

Hard to come up with reasons not to move back...

P.s. Where was the first part of the trailer shot?

Thanks, guys. Jepp, we've got some very fine footage from both up in the highlands and down in the small river with the big browns, and other different locations on our trips. And that's all because of the two cameramen.

The first char location on the trailer must be one of the worlds best places for char.

Here's a photo from a fantastic brown trout river aswell.
Iceland has some hidden secrets that is nothing but amazing when it comes to trout and char. I've never been enjoying a film like this before - as the fisherman.

Hi André, yes Iceland has a lot of gems, some well hidden and remote and often vulnerable to too much fishing pressure (I have seen some sad examples).

The reason for asking about the first char location, is that in this short clip it reminded me a lot of a river, famous for salmon fishing in it's valley, that I have fished a few times in the highland (although it's much too long since I've been there).

Hi again André :D

I heard you used an OPTI Creek #2 line and rod in Island for the trouts :shock:
is it true?

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.
