Drake Magazine Video Awards 2008: Our Latest Creation, “CONNECTED”

Posted under fly fishing media by Dave Teper

Connected, Drakemag VideoWill and I have just put the wraps on our latest video creation, “Connected”, for the Drake Magazine Video Awards this September in Denver.  This short video starts by punching you in the face and ends with a kick to the grundle highlighting some of this season’s tarpon fishing followed up by some of the sickest permit footage imaginable. Captured and edited in 1080p HD,  we have assembled some stunning footage from on, above, and underwater in an effort to introduce permit fly fishing to the masses without watering it down.  No how-to’s, time lapse shots of clouds,  or boring interviews, just raw fish porn.  We hope you enjoy.

 

We will be releasing it on the web following the awards.  If you would like to come out and see our footage, as well as the other 9 videos in the Drake’s competition, come out to:

See It Here

A lot of people have been asking for a copy of our movie, but we are currently working out some music copyright issues, as well as polishing up a few edits.  DVD release is set for late 2008 or early 2009, and we promise that it will be worth the wait.  In the meantime, enjoy the trailer that we had on the Fly Fishing Film Tour this year.

Fly Fishing Snook: Stop Blind Casting And Start Looking

Posted under fly fishing media by Dave Teper

Everglades Snook On Fly: Dave TeperBig snook are as spooky as fish come. They live in areas that see no boat traffic, and stay out of the wind even with a hard blow. Pole into a muddy cove or up one of the Everglades many creek systems and make a super stealthy approach, as snook in these areas will blow out from the tiniest boat wake, loud talking, blind casting (both from the disturbance in the water, and the unnecessary movement made while casting at nothing), and just about anything else that moves or makes noise.

In March and April, the waters warm up, and the prevailing wind blows east-northeast. This wind blows a lot of the water out of the creek systems that big fish winter in. This movement of water forces snook to come out of their hiding spots, just long enough for us to get at them. Carefully present a fly in front of these fish, and let them swim to it. Once the fish is really close to the fly, strip it a couple of times short and fast. If you did everything correct, you’ll be in for one of the greatest eats you’ll ever see.
