Holy crap! I mean carp!

In the Northwest wild chinook salmon churn through picturesque rivers.

In the Rocky Mountains, world-class trout swim in cool streams.

In
Des Moines, live carp slog through sewage pipes before meeting a screen
- and their demise - at the treatment plant in the southeast part of
the city.  Via: The Des Moines Register  LINK

AEG Fly Fishing Film Tour - Seattle Edition

Andy_winter_2008_037

A packed house at the Seattle's Neptune Theater was treated to another fine evening of Fly Fishing Film Tour goodness which was followed up with some post show synaptic lubricant with cast and crew. The pace and flow of the show has been tweaked a bit since the premier in Ventura with some editing and rearranging of the roster of films.

Andy Parkinson of Fish Mongolia, that's him on the left, sent us his pics from the evening. According to the Fish Bum crew Andy saved them from potential disaster on a couple of occasions but could not save them from the local milk vodka or me from doing my Kubla Khan imitation.

The tour heads next to Montana for a limited engagement in Missoula and Bozeman before the team splits up and the east coast venues start their run.

In case you missed the latest Fish Bum trailer here it is to get you fired up to see the extended clip at a tour stop near you.
