Italian Job - Rodcracker Reunion (Germany)

Italian Job - Rodcracker Reunion (Germany)
by Stephan Dombaj

"I´m coming down next weekend!" - Hiobs-message for every trout in a certain radius around Cologne. Sergio, an addicted Seatrout-hunter, came back home to charge up his streamfishing-batteries. Well, the flipside of the medal was the puzzeling element. As a seatroutfisher he´s used to fishes that fight quite a lot more than any streamfish...

(60cm+ Bow on a 2wt Opti Creek)

Due to the fact that the first migratories are starting to run, there should be the chance to get at least one at the typical resting points. Trophy bows, still big´n fat and ambitiously fighting... even the most hardned seafisher get´s a hard on... So it´s time for another Italian Job - enjoy the pics:

(Good morning Mr. Brown - Sergio´s first one)


(Descent averagesize)


(Where´s the fucking fly???)


(Ay, that´s a good one)


(landing)


(What a nice fish...)


(Good one - 47cm)

Time to hit another spot... what about this one:

(Chubs, Barbel and Trout...some questions?)

This is a typical sign of bridge-bitches, waiting for their meal... iem to go... GloBug. But no time left for "Bridgies" Migratories for the win! (Of course I couldn´t resist... I came back...check out Bowhunting with lighttackle)

(Skating Stimulator for the win)


(...time to kill topwater)

The next pool reveal it´s silver secret in form of slightly moving bow-fatties. Now we are talking, time to get some work for my 2weight. (Whatch "The Flyfishing Guerilla" - first striking scene)

(First Big-Bow of the day - 60cm+)


(...with Sergio)


(Tell your Mom to beat me up for slappin´ you)

While Sergio and Paulo were fishing the upper parts again, I saw another pig in the strong current - Sinking Line and Streamer for the Win! One Cast - BANG!!!

(I was screaming - but they were out of reach... so I tried to document this moment...)


(And there she is...even bigger than the first one!)


(hahaha, fucked up Selfportrait!)

...Time to hit the road

(...)


(Fishdog!)

Kyller Instinct - Kyll River Revival 08

Kyller Instinct - Kyll River Revival 08
by Stephan Dombaj

"Green Hell" - an appropriate term for the upper parts of Kyll-River. A small river, more Creek than River, abundantly covered with vegetation. Descent fishes - more colourfull than big and heavy. To shorten it up: A esteemed playground for some light line action.

Once I had 3 hobbies: Fishing, photography and cooking.
The idea to combine hobby and career spooked always somwhere in my head. So I became a gourmet-cook, which is a fulfilling but also a hard job. Now Flyfishing-Nation gives me the chance to make flyfishing and photography to something like a profession, too.
That's really cool, couse flyfishing has given so much to me!
Flyfishing is there for me.
I'm there for fishing.
Some call it passion.
We call it Flystyle.

Considering being raised in Lappland, Sweden, near so many great rivers and lakes I must say I was a bit of a slow starter.

Not until I left the north and was living in Stockholm I tried flyfishing for the first time and in an instant I found what had been missing all my life! I finally understood what would be the highlight in my life.

Fishing has always been a common activity in my family, summers spent in a small lake-by cottage fishing for pike and perch, but that gene that make you stand casting for hours, asking questions to improve your knowledge or simply just dream about that special place, with that great fishing. That gene must have been sleeping a beautysleep during my childhood. I just didn´t understand it all by then. Although, a beautysleep makes it more powerful afterwards. Once woken it sure got the hold of me and totally changed my life!

It´s now five years since I first tried flyfishing, and my interest has gradually gone from modest to almost obsessive. I now consider myself working fulltime in sales with my “normal” job and fulltime in fishing. In between I try to maintain a normal familylife, with my husband and a daughter who I´m slowly trying to bring into this fishing-maniac-world.

As always, the time for fishing is too short, the days with the rod too few. I try to do as much fishing as possible, best of all in a small river up north, watching that dryfly dancing in front of a big greyling or trout waiting for success. If not up north, I gladly try fishing where ever possible. I still consider myself a rookie, but eager to learn, and taking every chance to improve.

Jan Wolff

When Stephan Dombaj asked Jan Wolff to become a member of Flyfishing-Nation, Jan accepted in a split second. His reasons to join were pretty simple: To be part of a group of flyfishing fanatics and addicts to serve the flyfishing community with photos, reports or even movies in an uncommon way from everywhere around the globe. Jan is a very passionate flyfisher and flycaster and is always armed with a flyrod and video camera no matter where he goes to get the possible footage of the lifetime. Up to now he traveled to more than 10 diffrent countries to follow his passion including Canada, Iceland, U.S.A., Slovenia, Norway and Austria for example. Although, he is intrested in any kind of fish you can catch with a fly, his favourite target is the B.C. steelhead and if conditions allow it to get them hooked on a dryfly. Be prepared and expect exceptional reports from Stephan and Jan... Two absolute crazy flyfisher and if you put them together, they become unstopable. Hardcore flyfishing to the fullest!
