Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!

I made a movie about a fly-fishing adventure!

I think before you put too much time, thought, and effort into this little project, you ought to ask Beetle for some advice on choreography. He's been there and done that already and nobody and i mean NOBODY does it quit like him.
 
I dont remember getting my invitation to be in the movie. Ill check my email again in case i missed it

More like Broken Rod Mountain ....

Why spoon, when you can fork?

This film looks a little bit too pro fly fishing for me, given what I saw in the trailer. Doesn't really show both sides of the issue. Fly fishing has a well known dark side that is virtually ignored by the men in this film.

For example, it is expensive, boring and difficult.

By the end of the trailer, I had lost all hope in any objectivity on the part of the filmmaker, or his subjects. Those among us who do not like to fly fish and generally frown on it as a way of life (FF) will feel alienated and marginalized by this movie.

★★

two stars.

just kidding. I look forward to watching the censored, family-friendly version of this film whenever it comes out.

I suggest some actual fly fishing, watching guys talking around a fire is kind of boring, lol
 
I would suggest less hipsters.

Just kidding. Looking foward to the final product. Where was most of it filmed?

This years fly fishing show will not be a happy experience for you. I am going to hang around your table all day along with Beetle. Of course i will be wearing my camo and you will never know im there.

Kidding, not kidding.

It was all filmed over the course of a weekend on the esopus

The guys speaking seemed so glum and melancholy.
It seems so unfortunate that they speak of the trip as such an escape.

Move guys... move...
You're still young...

I guess that's a downfall of filming interviews after sundown, in 25° weather, post-bourbon. I do think the final edit will show a nice ebb and flow, here's to hoping!

What I wrote was not a critique of the movie...
(I'm sure it'll be great)
but how these guys characterized the weekend...

"It's definitely an escape...you definitely feel you need to get out of the city and run around, take some time outdoors and sorta breathe"
"I really cherish the chance to come out to the country or the mountains, to relax, recharge; it's a welcome respite."
"For me, it's kind of all encompassing. There's probably not a day that goes by that I don't wake up thinking about it."
"The sound of the water takes your thoughts somewhere else."

It just seems to me that each of these guys could better serve themselves by being closer to it.
Life's too short to be living the way you hope to on an occasional weekend.
I don't know, maybe they all enjoy living in the city, too.
Those quotes don't make it seem so, though.
 
Pipe down FF. Ohh by the way, can you brush the snow off my stand tomorrow night. I ll be up first thing Thursday morning to shoot one of those funny looking deer you have running around your place.

Yeah, 2-4 inches to dust off...

Don't you have your wife do your shoveling?

I'll wake her up early and get her out there to clear a path to your stand.

When ya leave, be sure to take her home with ya...
She may be able to shovel snow, but she's not too good at cleanin' out a barn.

Money talks... good paying jobs are often more abundant in cities.. if i could have my same job and live in the middle of nowhere next to some great trout river, I would in a heart beat
 
I like the logo at the end.

What makes these guys hipsters?? The fact that they have beards and wear flannel?? Aren't outdoorsmen supposed to have beards and wear flannel. Would you find them less abrasive if they wore tight t-shirts, went tanning, and got their eyebrows waxed??

Look forward to the finished product. Hopefully you guys got into some reservoir browns in the lower special regs area..
 
Moosekid,

Do not be upset. I meant no offense. I did not say these hipsters were abrasive. I can not even identify the enigmatic qualities that make these men hipsters, I just know that they are.

lol. i'm not upset, dude. i bet they are too. just curious if a beard and flannel is all it takes to get labeled a hipster.

at the end of the day, i can't trip -- 'cause i AM a hipster and that's my uniform...

Thanks!
And, we did have plans to hit the special regs section, unfortunately some events unfolded that kept us from getting there this trip. Already dreaming about next spring, I've been told those waters are great.
