Motiv Fishing Belize - A Mayan Prophecy

A fresh trailer from the Motiv Fishing crew's latest exploits, this time it's the jungles of Belize.

MOTIV Fishing cuts their own path through some of the most rugged jungles of Belize in hopes of finding out-of-the-way locations—with fish, and escaping with captured memories. To make it home they have to keep moving, or the jungle will surround and overtake them, making you just another roadside casualty in the vehicular ancient Mayan burial ground.

Belize is a contrast of extremes (beauty and pain), and the road you end up traveling may not be by choice, but as with anywhere that human interaction hasn’t overtaken, once you get there, paradise and unspoiled fishing are right at your feet.

On the 8th Day of Christmahanakwanzakah

This holiday season get that fly fishing film aficionado the must have DVD of the year, Geofish, Adventures with Baba Looey. Follow the madcap Motiv crew, except for Thad who is allergic to donkey dander, as they rescue Baba from a shady Tijuana back alley establishment and search from Baja to Belize for his rightful owners. Along the way they learn that not only does B.L. have a nose for permit and Pacifico, but that traveling with a famous show donkey will get you out of trouble with the cartels everytime.

GEOFISH - Best Film from The Drake Video Awards

You got to roll with the punches and get to what's real

It was not too long ago that the band of trout bums that helped lead the way in the new school fly film genre broke up over issues beyond their control. After the dust had settled, most of the band got back together. Reconstituted as Motiv Fishing, they hit the road to Mexico in a veggie powered rig and in what is sweet redemption, captured the Best Film and Best Humor Award at the recent Drake 5 minute of Fly Fishing Video Awards.

No film better represented the spirit of the awards than this piece, heavy drinking and karaoke.

Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans

As you may or may not know, the entire fly fishing universe is currently in New Orleans at it's annual industry trade show. Day one wrapped up today with the industry party which was immediately followed by the 6th Annual Drake Fly Fishing Video Awards.

Our boys at Motiv Fishing took home the top prize and while we can't show you the clip we can leave you with a little teaser.

Viva Chupa!

The Cleanest Line picks up the scent of the Motiv Fishing boys as they drive deeper into Baja.

Over 2500 miles behind us and we were still truckin’ on used veggie oil! Our F250 truck ran smoother, quieter, and depending on which 55gal drum we suck waste oil from to fill our veg tank, we either smelled like an Italian, Sushi, or Chinese buffet when we rolled down the highway.
