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.

EFFA Open 2019 - International Fly Tying Contest

The Christmas rush and New Year’s Day being over, it’s about time we return to our normal routines. Time to think about EFFA’s fly tying event! The EFFA Open Fly Tying Competition started in 2012 and has developed into a regular event. The conditions of participation have been slightly modified for 2019.

Fly Tying

 EFFA would like to encourage tiers that don’t tie every single day to participate in our competition. For this reason professional tiers are excluded from competing. Maybe there will also be a class for professionals to compete in the future.

We still have 4 weeks to the closing date, February 17th, 2019. So you better get out your vise and start tying!

Have fun tying, and may your flies be winners!

Chairman: EFFA Fly Tying Department

If you're not fishing on Huchen or on the other side of the world, this is the time to take care of the fishing equipment. At the same time, one can already dream a little bit about the upcoming season.

Christmas Melancholy

The River Pegnitz in the town of Pegnitz

Here, in the upper parts of the Pegnitz, I had many successful situations with the fly rod. In the beginning, however, was an experience that I would very much like to have renounced. Joy and sorrow can be so close together.

The End of Fly Fishing in 2018?

In waters like this, the fly fishing season is over. Similar waters with grayling are depending on the country (in Germany in states), still open. Now it goes on with fly tying, and rods and reels cleaning. Of course, there is a little bit of dreaming about what and where to catch next year.

( Fly ) Fishing in Difficult Terrain

Whether fishing or fly fishing, or just hiking or with the camera, such a terrain should not be underestimated. If such a landscape is located far from populated areas, it is necessary that somebody knows where you are and when you will be back. This is the only way to search for anybody in an emergency reason.
