Daily Reel...'Backcountry - North Island' Official Trailer

Backcountry - North Island Official Trailer from Gin Clear Media on Vimeo.

The backcountry of New Zealand holds a special place in the heart of all Kiwis. “Going bush” is a national past time, and Kiwi fly fishers like nothing better than the sun on their backpack, the cold touch of a mountain stream and the opportunity to sight fishing to giant trout in pristine settings.

The film follows six fly fishermen, from different places and different walks of life, as they each explore a treasured corner of the North Island. This land of active volcanoes, rugged gorges and dense forests provides an epic backdrop for some of the best trout fishing on the planet. As each story weaves into the fabric of the film it becomes evident that, despite their differences, the characters are all bound together by their passion for the backcountry.

Backcountry – North Island is Gin-Clear Media's 7th fly fishing feature film.

2014 Yellowstone Angler 8-Weight Reel Shootout

A few weeks ago we posted The Yellowstone Angler's 8-weight rod shootout...their thorough review wouldn't be complete without the reel end...

Via TFM:

The Yellowstone Angler just released their latest review and it's a comprehensive breakdown of over two dozen eight weight fly reels from a lot of the big name brands across the industry.    

Check out the Yellowstone Angler to read the full review and to see their favorites, complete misses, and a couple surprises are in the mix as well. 

How did your favorite fly reel fare in the review?

Of course, our Morgan's favorite reels didn't make it into the review this year, but Allen will get there soon enough...

Luis has been validated finally as his reel of choice, the Galvan T-8...kicked ass did well by sitting comfortably in 3rd (Remember...if your not first, your last).
