Through The Guides

No comments yet

"Through the Guides" is a short form documentary featuring fly fishing guides who show us how to read water, catch more fish, and love the places fishing takes us. Every guide has a story beyond their last trip and fishing report that we don’t see. "Through the Guides" explores the person behind the reel, accentuating their passion to pursue the lifestyle that defines them. Visiting three very different fisheries and following three very different guides, we see what motivates them and how their life away from fishing influences how they chase fish. Contrasting species, landscapes, and personalities all come together in the context of their passion, coaching, and sharing the experience with anyone on their boat. The life of a fly fishing guide is defined by water, fish, and hard work. Maybe they were born to guide, or maybe they learned to love it. Either way, their unique approaches and dedication to the sport influence their lives on and off the water.

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.
