I am looking forward to seeing the rest of the pictures from the summit that everyone else has submitted to Martin.
Hi Steve,
I shot some nice picture of you, Paul and your nice seatrouts.
Martin will have them all, but if you are keen to have them too, send me an E-Mail.
Kind regards to all the GFF-summiter and thank you for the great time.

Hallo Martin,
I was quite surprised to be mentioned in your podcast. You are correct, Matthias is German, not "Matthias" like your - cool - american pronounciation. I am living with my family since 8 years in San Diego, SoCal. One of the things we definitly do not have here is Sea Trout fishing like I used to do it just south of the Danish Border near Flensburg. We do have fly fishing though, for several kind of bass and halibut and - small - bonefish, both in the bays and in the inshore kelp beds and beyond that we have the Pacific with all the possibilities. Changes of Latittudes, Changes of Attitudes...you could say.
Cheers and keep up with the good work,
I always like to check in on your website.
Matthias
Nice Cap promotion...ha ha ha. I think all i need to do now is catch a nice fish and take a pic of me with my GFF cap on.. :D
Great fishing Brian.!!! :P

Aha Mr Alcholic (A.K.A. Roolis),

Hi how you doing l would like to ask you if you can give me an order to tie for you fly hook l am fishing fly maker if you have any quastion you can about hooks am making all types of hooks
Amazing - I dont think I ever managed to tie more than two identical flies in one session.......
I have always used a needle knot. Its never failed me.

Jan,
I personally use the needle knot about 90% of my fishing these days. I have loops on a few lines, which I use for salmon fishing where leaders are changed from floating to sinking or on some trout lines where I use furled leaders. All my plain day-to-day lines and shooting heads now have plain needle knots and knotted or monofilament leaders.
Martin
hi Martin do many people use the needle knot, i have gone back to it, i think the presentation seems better what do you think please
Stephen,
The needle has been mentioned several places on this site, but holding tubes can be a little more complex than just a needle as this recent in-depth tube tool article shows.

So am I! ;-)
I have a lot in already and some on the way, but if you have images from the GFF Summit 2007, lemme hav'em ASAP and yours may be included in the gallery I will build for the event.
As I wrote to all of you: originals and as many as possible. I will edit and sort.
Thanks!
Martin
You don't need a tube holder a large sack needle is cheaper and more effective as the tube will jam up on the eye and will not rotate.
beauteful pattern ......I' m interested to ty myself ...because am beleving on this pattern and I ' am sûr...you are a good fisherman and good Flytyer.....excuse my poor english language...remerber who ' s guy speaking right now....Yes it 's me Laval.....and I no, you prefer a CANADIAN '' STUF ''
Rodney,
Remember im a "mad fly fishing English man" :P so i fish all year round. Of course in December the weather is very cold here in Denmark but i have had some good results with the silver fish in December. You will just have to put up with the frozen ice rings and your " Man Tackle" shrinking away. :shock: The few fish that are around can be very big.
Well im off out fishing now...
Steve
Hi, would just like to say, a great site GFF. lots of good info to be read in all types of fly fishing, please keep up the good work.
And if there is a list for the GFF peak cap, PLEASE put me on it.
Martin & co great job
Dave :wink: from Wales
December in Jutland? I thought people don't even come out of their houses during that time in that particular area. ;) Sea trout on the beach? :) We shall see, definitely interested if Nina permits. ;) Right now there are no specific plans for my stay. We will probably do some beach fishing trips around Copenhagen and hopefully some trips for pike and perch too.
… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
