One of the most under utilized by anglers is appropriate eyewear.

Major considerations would include protection from Ultra Violet rays and from any accidents when it comes to fishing tackle.

They are a great tool to have with you as they allow for a clear view into the water by blocking out all the glare caused by the sun.

Equally important is their use as eye protection while fishing. We will not guide or  instruct lessons without their use.

No matter how seasoned an angler, accidents happen, and winds are unpredictable – this could easily have been an eye!

Modern Fly Fishing - Vol. 1 - Czech Nymphing - Master Class DVD

Modern Fly Fishing – Vol. 1 – Czech Nymphing – Master Class DVD

/in , , /by

Reviewed by Martin Joergensen

Quiet and easygoing. Entertaining and educating. High quality and Global Class!

If you ever wanted to know about this Czech nymphing style of fishing, which has been talked about so much (OK, let’s say hyped) the last 20 years or so, this is a very good place to start.

Swedish Johan Klingberg and photographer/producer Jussi Sjölund have done a very good job of conveying both the fascination and the technique of this much debated fishing method. I write much debated not because there’s a conflict, but because the method is much talked about, and most people who have heard of it, seen it practiced or tried it themselves seem to have an opinion. I have often turned to the short cast Czech style when appropriate, and even though I’m nowhere near being proficient, I must admit that it’s a very efficient method, and I can only encourage you to try it when the water is suitable – which this video shows that most running water is.

The video gets around the subject and covers all relevant angles, both the history, the flies, the rig, the people and of course the techniques. We get a gentle and nice introduction to the seemingly simple movements during a fishing outing in Bohemia in the Czech Republic where we meet some local masters of this fishing method. The Czechs have demonstrated the efficiency of this nymphing style since it was introduced into competition fly fishing back in the eighties. The people introduced all seem to be either participants or coaches to Czech national teams and can boast all kinds of titles from the world championships in fly fishing.
Now, I’m not an avid fan of competing in fly fishing, but I have to respect the fact that the Czech nymph method has been adapted by most of the teams and has proven its worth many times. There might be waters and conditions where this is not the best method, but in any densely populated water where you can get within close range of the fish without spooking them, this is bound to be efficient.

The video demonstrates this by showing anglers literally hauling in fish. Many small ones, admitted, but some of the fish caught are more than decent, especially once the scene moves from eastern Europe to Sweden where the target is rainbows. Johan utters an occasional “uh” and “ah” as he gets into bigger fish and the pressure on the light gear increases.

The extra material is as long as the main feature itself, and contains some valuable tying examples as well as an instruction in setting up the multi-fly leader.

This video earns a Global Class rating in a very quiet and modest way – Scandinavian way so to say. It doesn’t have hectic hand held scenes or fast paced rock music, but it has a well defined scope, a consistent style and a lot of educating content. Once you have watched it you will be much wiser on the efficient art of nymphing the Czech way, and whether you’re watching it in mid winter with frozen water all around like I am or in the peak of the season with easy access to water you will immediately want to go fishing.

We go the extra mile to develop gear engineered to stand up to the toughest conditions. We know you are counting on our products to allow you to go further and experience the best your outdoor adventure has to offer.

It’s gear with grit and an iron clad development process that yields performance day after day for years to come.

That’s why Hodgman is recognized throughout the world as one of the oldest and most respected names in waders and outdoor gear. In fact, after the company started in 1838 Hodgman manufactured what was probably the very first pair of waders ever made.

Today, Hodgman leads in the design and production of waterproof/breathable waders and foul weather grit gear used by avid sportsmen and sportswomen worldwide.

ULLFROTTÉ ORIGINAL – THE MATERIAL

Ullfrotté Original is the material developed by Woolpower AB in Östersund in the early 1970’s in collaboration with the Swedish military, scientists, doctors and survival experts. The textile is highly wear resistant and consists of fine Merino wool, polyamide/polyester and air.

ULLFROTTÉ ORIGINAL IS 80% AIR
The material is knit so that one side is smooth, and the other has terry loops. The lofty terry loops, in combination with the crimp in the wool fibers, creates a knitwear capable of trapping a lot of air. Up to 80% of the material actually consists of air, which means that the material has an excellent capacity to trap body heat. The more air you can keep still around the body, the more heat you can retain.

Air does not to any large extent transport heat away from the body, but textiles do. Ullfrotté Original’s lofty knit has few contact points with the body, which reduces the number of points where body heat can be wicked away.

The permeable Ullfrotté Original material easily lets moisture escape from the body. As you become hot and you perspire, vapor pressure builds up inside your clothes. The moisture molecules strive to get outside where the air is colder and the pressure lower. If the material is loose and the fibers have the right properties, they will help transport moisture away from the body.

The soft terry knit surface of Ullfrotté Original can easily be worn on warm skin to maximize body heat retention, while simultaneously helping to wick perspiration away from the skin. Ullfrotté Original retains body heat, even when wet.

MERINO WOOL FROM ARGENTINEAN PATAGONIA
Merino wool is known as a very fine, soft and crimpy wool and is perfect for garments worn next to the skin. The wool used in Ullfrotté Original is 22 microns, meaning that the thickness of the wool fibers is 22 thousandths of a millimeter. This results in comfortable wool that is also strong.
