Fly Fishing Nation

"All over our beloved planet earth, even on the most remote places one may possibly be able to get to, chances are, that there will be somebody flyfishing. Fact is, that it is such highly spirited flyfishing individuals who are instrumental in pioneering pristine places such as Tierra Del Fuego (Argentina), Khalovka (Russia), or New Caledonia (Australia), to name a few.

(Silver Ghost - Carribean Sea - S.Dombaj)

Thanks to the enormous drive and the almost on madness bordering dedication these guys sport, it is, that the formerly white spots on our maps have turned into the most desirable places to go for enjoying the great sport of flyfishing. These pioneering sportsman and women are the living proof, that for the kind of flyfisher we are talking about here, there is no place too far, no wind to strong and no waters to rough, to take a flyrod just there and even beyond, so god will.

(Argentina - Rio Gallegos - Private Estate "Las Buiteras" - S.Dombaj)

Curious?

Well, then let´s go and catch some of our spirit by the way of a photo journey around the world ... Witness flyfishing-freaks going beyond borders and obstacles. Be part of the experience when people of different countries go for their goal:

The often seemingly featuereless appearance of some of the most remote locations on this planet, reveal their secrets and hidden treasures often only to the eyes of the spirited flyfisher."

Hola Guerillos!

May - tribute to this toothy month! Pike close-season has just ended and freaks around the globe are hereticly celebrating these days on the shoreline, ambushing toothy critters. Still can´t get enough of fishing? I gotcha. Here´s your golden shot:

SFFM - URGENT

Hola Guerillos,

I am proud to announce the frigging hottest event in the history of flyfishing:

THE SFFM
"The Saxonian Flyfishing Meeting 2010"

13.Juni.2010

In terms of fishing fairs, the SFFM is considered to be the redefinition - the riotkid that cracks the borders of a simple game angling fair. Hard to believe but did you guys ever see a fair with a Shisha-Bar, Chill-Out-Lounge, Models (presenting the L way of fishing) and much more? I could go on forever, but after all it´s very simple: Be there or be square!

-The FlyFishing Nation is part of the party
-Pro Team Loop Int. Members are hitting the spot!

Cheers,
Esteban!

Slovenian Bash 2010

Slovenian Bash 2010

by Julian Sion feat.:
Stephan Dombaj, Blaž Klančnik,
Günter Bosch & Stefan Haider

Shortly after Stephan´s "home coming bash" a couple of days ago we were hitting the road once again towards Slovenia. Time to bring him back to real life since he spent a whole season down in the dirty south of Argentina. Changing his hardcore adjusments for decent lightweight tackle - ready to sell versions of LOOP´S XACT and EVOTEC (additional tackle for 2010)

(On the road again)

Although he tried to convince me that he´s is not soo keen on fishing I didn´t believe him since he was sleeping the whole way from Cologne to the HQ in Graz (Austria)...saving up his energy for the task. Meeting up with the rest of la familia in Graz we continued our way to Bled (Slovenia)

(...on tour)

After a long journey around 900 kilometres through the night and mountains, we arrived in Graz/Austria.

(Slovenia)

After our arrival in an amazing stunning area we felt miles away. All the exertion seemed to be forgotten and we looked forward for our seasonstart in a beautiful river.

(Sava B.)

We got some support from Blaž Klancnik. He knows all rivers in Slovenia well and helps if you want to visit this great area (www.flyfishing-marmorata.com). Blaž was a very skilled and friendly guide and brought us to nice fish.

(New Stuff)

Standing on a small bridge, we had a nice view over the river. My heartbeat began to beat faster and faster as I saw the gorgeous trouts and graylings, swimming in the clear water.

(Sightfishing)

Furthermore we went into the water and started to fish. Only after a short time we caught some nice rainbows and some smaller graylings.

(Hitting the spot)

On the first day we had a fantastic fishery with strong rainbow trouts.

(Fighting a bow)

After a good rustic meal we felt quickly asleep. On the next morning we took small breakfast and bought our licences. Just 30 minutes later the tackle was rigged and we started to try a different section of the river.

BassBooster Tales

It´s really funny to see what other guys are doing as soon as you leave the stage for a couple of days. I got a request from a friend asking me about the BassBooster Series, which was quite amusing since there were just a couple rumors about it and nothing really specific. I should know it because I was spreading them while getting my hands on the very first design-type. The BassBooster was supposed to be an addition to our PikeBooster Series - almost the same design features except the EVA-fighting grip, lighter and shorter though.

(Down with the syndicate)

The first design-types are still 8-9ers, so not lighter at all since we built them up on short and high modulated versions of the "PikeBooster" blank, supposed to be for intern use only. BASS BOOSTER wont be released! The most fucked up thing... this wrong information were spread by formerly hopes that got it all wrong now... Anyway, all the rumors about the BassBooster Series are fake - don´t listen to the fakies and wannabes out there...stick to a reliable source: Either to official Loop Page/Blog or to the one and only Guerilla-Page since oh7! Down with the syndicate! If you wanna see real prototypes - check this out:
