How it all began, fly fishing for Steelhead in British Columbia

In October 1989,  two friends and I sat together after grayling fishing. Our topic: The pretty dead time of fishing after new year. Shortly before, I had read an article about winter steelhead fishing on Vancouver Island, and so the talk was given. It said, in February no snow, good rise of steelhead, easy to reach with airlines like LH, KLM, Air Canada etc.
After a while of talking I ventured to hint that such a trip well would be beyond my financial capabilities.
At that time my fly fishing school runs four years with a small trade of fly fishing equipment. My two friends offered me the idea to buy several  fly fishers equipment when I use the profit for the journey.
So I ended up in February 1990 in BC. This year I will visit British Colambia the 38 time.

This blog runs alongside my new Canada fly fishing shop. The shop is based in Germany. After more than 6 years of experience as a wholesaler with stock in BC, dealing only with shops, I have decided to sell directly  to customers in the future. Right now there are 6 pages with different products for fly fishers in all parts of Canada.
The blog you will inform you about various new products as well as maybe about steelhead fishing with nymphs.
After more than 20 years of experience in BC, I will tell you a few secrets about my way of steelhead fishing in small creeks and in bigger rivers.
My name is Wolfgang Fabisch, I´m a certified master instructor of EFFA ( European Fly Fishing Association )  -  formerly  known as FFF-Europe
This will be a blog to share information about steelhead fishing. I´m looking forward to receive questions as well as posts from all over Canada.
