The Trout Bum Diaries
Vol 1 - Patagonia
Patagonia' is a fly fishing adventure film that is the result of five months of sleeping in the dirt on a 12,000 kilometer journey across the bottom of South America. The film is done in a high action style with narration between music sequences. The film is filled with shots of real life trout bums sleeping in the dirt, exploring new waters, hiking streams, floating rivers, and of course, catching fish! You won't find any instruction here, and we guard all of our film locations by using imaginary names. This is pure fly fishing entertainment. Does 5 pound brook trout in a creepy middle earth style forest appeal to you? Horse-packing trips into glacial rivers? Tierra Del Fuego and the sea-run brown trout of the south? Pure fishing entertainment? You'll find it here...
