Hi Everyone

Not sure if everyone has heard but Carl McNeil and Jeanie Ackley from On the Fly just won the Drake Fly Fishing Video Competition with Once in a Blue Moon.

I think we all agree that fly fishing films have got unbelievably good over the last few years so for these guys to win this comp is a phenominal effort. This comp was held at the Denver fly tackle show with entries from all over the world.

Go Nu Zuland !

So if you haven't got the DVD yet then make sure you do, and if you want to see the clip that won the show then check out this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4pOOMpFW_8 - Once in a Blue Moon Wins Drake Fly Fishing Film Competition

The other good news is Carl and Jeanie are already working on other films.

Carl and Jeanie are a class act... and excellent folks as well. The DVD is nothing short of spectacular.

Steve my advice is to watch it on a Friday night so you have time to calm down, its so good it makes your hands shake and in your case that could lead to some toothy accidents!! LOLLOLLOL
