The Blue Winged Olive dry fly is one of the most famous patterns ever. So it is not surprising that there are many different fly tying methods for this fly.
At this pattern, the wing is made of CDC fibers.

Anticipation is the Greatest Joy

A really big trout on Nmphe in Canada

It will take a while until the big trouts can be caught  again. We look forward to it and look after our fish locally. Let's see how the damage caused by the cormorants counts. I wish you all a great fishing in 2019.

A Short Excursion into Alaska

Weekly picture at Fabisch Fly Fishing, Week 07 -  2019

The center of the city of Chicken in Alaska consists of five small wooden business buildings
The center of Chicken is very small

Only 70 km away from our claims in the Yukon is the place Chicken. However, it is not easy to reach. Narrow roads with huge trucks should not leave you impatient. You should simply enjoy this excursion without time pressure.

The Yukon, Pelly Crossing

Pelly Crossing on the Pelly River
The drive from Vancouver to the north seems endless. Here at Pelly Crossing we are already 2700 km away from Vancouver. Nature clearly has the upper hand. Anyone who disappears from the scene here will hardly be found anywhere. This can be a bit depressing, but also a great opportunity to get to know yourself a little better.

The highways in northwestern Canada

Not all highways in northwestern Canada look like this. This one is one of the good ones that brings you to the end of the world. Unfortunately, there is the risk of losing his windshield by falling rocks from other vehicles, quite large.

Fly fishing in Berchtesgaden
Nice mountain view in Berchtesgaden
A long time ago I was very often in Berchtesgaden for fly fishing. I have given many fly fishing lessons there. In 2017 we fished the Achen after a long break. Berchtesgaden is still worth a trip, not just to fly fishing there.

Hibernation on the Wiesent River

Winter rest at the Wiesent
At the River Wiesent prevails at the moment the hibernation. The brown trout have already spawned, with the grayling it will take a while until the spawning business begins.
Just over a month, then fishing for brown trout is allowed again, so fast is the hibernation over.
