192 pages; 7X10 inches; color cover with black text FIshing the Film is due out shortly after October 22, and GB and I have arranged a special offer for our respective readers. For those who have faith in us delivering a solid series of 20 books over the next 5 years or so (due to [...]
After seeing how the previous Shareaholic plug-in worked here at FF&W, I decided to switch over to Share This. The new plug-in seems to work better for me (in terms of how it presents in Twitter), and takes up less visual space in the post. In addition, it is more obvious as a “share/tweet” service [...]
Drawing Flies 52 Sculpin (Yellowstone Sculpin, to be specific). I am a big fan of sculpin flies in general, and grew up chucking them in the tea-stained waters of the Upper Midwest, as well as the inky-blue deeps of brawling western rivers like the Madison and the Yellowstone. To me, sculpins are meat-and-potatoes patterns for [...]
This week’s DF 52 fly is to be a sculpin (artist’s choice), and that got me thinking about some of the sculpin-based char imitations that I used on a trip to northern Russia some years ago. Of course, that got me thinking about the TV show that I was part of on that trip, which [...]
I’ve had a few people asking if they had missed any E-List mailings this summer. No, but I’ve missed one (or two). Sorry about that (to say things were busy this summer would be a monumental understatement). I have the October mailing on tap for later this week, and it will have some educational goodies, [...]

I’ve been using it as an adjunct browser for a couple of years and it’s designed specifically for integration with [...]
Fired up the Shareaholic plug-in for Facebook and Twitter… Give it a try, Simon (and anyone else)! Update: Going to give this plug-in a trial period to see how it goes. May adjust how/where it appears, etc., and see if it turns out to be permanently useful for FF&W or not. Any feedback from Facebook/Twitter [...]
Going to WSU – Vancouver next week to see the full collection of Eileen Klatt’s salmon/trout art (and hopefully make that lecture on the evening of the 7th). Perhaps I’ll see a few FF&W readers there?
The FF&W blog is meant to provide a flow of fly-fishing articles, art, and media, as well as a splash of news and other links. I hope that you enjoy the read.
My best,
Jason Borger

"Fly Fishing, the Book Series" was begun in 2010 as a collaboration between my father, Gary (GB) and myself. This planned 20-book series will explore a huge range of fly-fishing topics over 5+ years. The books are available signed and personalized by GB from his eBay store. Unsigned copies (at the basic retail price) are available here or from other angling book retailers.
THE SERIES PASS
A special "Series Pass" for all 20 books is also being offered. One million words, all fly fishing!
