Ya !

[@joakimkjell1910]

THE GOAT of producing flyfishing films

[@FlyFishDan]

I envy your story telling skills...good stuff, great vid. One of the coolest things that KZbin brings to the table is connecting other passionate fly fishers from all over the world.

[@lucaspendolino]

oh rolf how you just brighten up any day! yada!!!!

[@MackWhitcomb]

Rolf, I think I speak for the community when I say, PLEASE WE NEEEEEEED A NEW VIDEO!!! No pressure or anything, it’s just that life always seems a bit better when you post one of your videos. It’d even be great if it was a backyard creek fishing video, or exploring a local forest. Love from North Carolina!

[@AntoanIordanov]

In my humble opinion this is the best film you have made. Really nice trip, wonderful people, great fishing. Thank you!

[@MattMooreE9C]

Rolf, you truly authenticate what fly fishing is all about. Thanks for putting this on film, and allowing us to share in your adventures. Cheers!

[@SD-ft6gs]

Another great video log... As a person who grew up in Africa, as an expat, I really appreciated that you did mention what the real conditions were like, and what your emotions were experiencing them as well. great piece again

[@MackWhitcomb]

An introspective look at nature, humanity, and flyfishing. What an incredible film. Looking forward to the next 7,982 films!

[@CatchReleaseRepeat]

I put off watching this for some reason and I don't know why. This has to be one of the most unique fly fishing films I've ever seen. Thank you Rolf!

[@stevey4192]

Rolf, you are amazing. Amazing filming, story telling, and especially amazing editing. Thank you for sharing your gifts.

[@mmmbass6068]

This is life lived best. And sublime filmmaking. Soulful, and comedic too. The peak of human civilisation indeed. You lucky bastards.

[@sethallyn7712]

What an incredible story expertly told. Thank you for sharing it with the world

[@TheFuel89]

Nice to see that Håvard is a human after all. Great film, thanks Rolf!

[@picon1]

Love the pictures, the editing, the storytelling, the characters... DRY OR DIE !!!

[@gallimaufry5281]

Thank you Rolf, what a beautiful and different film. I felt as though I was there

[@jonathansacille8634]

Always a pleasure to enjoy your creations... And once again, pleasantly surprised by the story and your approach to fly fishing. You have a real talent. 😎🔥🌍

[@ArthurMartirosya]

Beautiful film, used to live in SA. Very nice seeing one from you about SA. Thank you!

[@FreestoneFF]

This had me smiling from ear to ear! Simply marvellous, Rolf.

[@RolfNylinder]

[@everest001]

[@henrikc.andersson-officiel352]

[@raimondasbikauskas]

[@par-emiljohansson5087]

Tusen tack Roffe, Håvard å Lemke🙌

[@swooningloonflyfishing]

Fantastic. Truly, you did a great job on this video. Watching you from the north woods of Minnesota, US.

[@CrazyAboutFlyFishing]

Ah so many memories Rolf, such an amazing film. Great film of my old home.

[@jivinmiles6352]

I wasn’t ready for the long toes 😂

[@bartoszruminski968]

Extremely amazing fishing in places where many would lack courage or would not think that it is possible to fish for a dry fly there

[@WSFScotland]

Such a cool film! It reminded me of being a 14 year old in the Spanish Pyrenees armed with a fly rod but with no trout fishing available for a junior. Then I discovered Spanish barbel and big dry flies 😊. Awesome film man!!!!!

[@craigfurness]

3RD time watching this - you are an artsit of story telling Rolf !

[@RolfNylinder]

🙏

[@bobschroeder1879]

Keep seeking real life in your work. You are near. Your efforts are appreciated. Your style is mesmerizing. Few understand the passion of Flyfishing that you portray.

[@Robjay1795]

Though I am just a fisheries biologist and a spinfisher, I absolutely love your vids. Dina films är en perfekt mix av liv, respekt och fiskeri. Hälsningar fran Hamburg

[@GregOlson-l4b]

Awesome! Just Awesome! Thanks!!!

[@OlRustyBones]

Your films make me frustrated with the rest of it all. Thanks! Where I live, and where I grew up, blind fishing=fishing. Sight fishing and casting to rising trout is like a fun treat.

[@jeffbrooks8288]

Rolf, when you said, “snake talk” I burst into uncontrollable laughter until tears ran down my face. Sooooo funny. I grew up fishing and hunting in the mountains of the American west and I hated snakes too. I had some close calls. Your films are the best. I hope I never forget your line, “snake talk.”

[@milesnordling370]

29:00 sums up the absolute addiction that fly fishing is… thank you for another great film, Rolf

[@dusty1308]

Rolf this film is a beautiful work of pure genius. You have a true gift ! Thank you for sharing it with us

[@ernsthorn2788]

Super cool Rolf. Thanks!

[@betonk.2100]

Great story. And it‘s always good to see fly rods and skateboards in the same car. Meaningful travel 😊

[@mantismamba]

I haven’t even started watching your film and I’m already crying for joy. Thank you may The Lord bless your entire friend and family ❤

[@Astronotus001]

Beautiful film ! ❤

[@fishhandsfranky]

The giggle of a Scandinavian dry fly fisherman when he happens upon a well manicured eat is beyond compare.

[@jesperelvin4125]

The donkey laugh timing though! 😂

[@Tfish001]

Beautifully captured and told Rolf. Thanks for the visit!

[@ssbob6101]

Epic story, well done Mission team on showing Rolf and the guys some of our hidden gems

[@Stefnfurryfriends]

When I stood up in the very early morning (4am), I thought damn, isnt there finally a new video from Rolf out? Its time… 😂 and I found it ❤, and very satisfied I saw its finally not just 15min long ❤❤❤. So I could not watch it before work, I safed it for the evening, coming home from a long day at work and enjoy ❤❤ tack så mycket! You made my hard day bright and easy !

[@АндрейРостов-ь7ъ]

You are the best, guys. I like you!!!

Just outstanding Rolf! You are truly a gifted videographer, and story teller! 🙏

[@MopFlyProductions.]

Best in the game right now! I could watch your videos all day!

[@Gratandinorr]

Det är inte ofta man kan se en fiskefilm flera gånger men denna går fint att avnjutas igen, Och som nämnts tidigare, du är en helt fantastisk berättare Rolf! Tack för ditt sätt att göra det. Hälsningar från Västerbottens inland.

[@pecahperiuk]

Simply Epic!

[@gerryquigley5030]

Wow, I must watch this again and again

Amazing trip. Very nicely edited. And congrats, learning a new depth of gratitude for your life is priceless.

[@joziflyfishing]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video… flawless work as always Rolf… Hope you visit us in SA again sometime… was cool meeting you guys at the Johannesburg screening of “A Not Too Steady Flow of Mayflies” Hope you get to fish the flies I gifted you🙏🏽

@8:20 - there's another sense in angling, this captures it, and the higher plane of life it leads to.

[@TheHM78]

The running gag on the klinkhamer and hovards incline on respect for lesotho’s fish got me..😅

[@JaneHall-n6t]

Memories of 30 years ago with Fred Steinberg

[@IntheLoopMagazine]

Wow very special film thank for sharing

[@garethtate538]

Epic epic epci film!

[@villa50bis]

Gosh that was lovely. The fishing started as a bit of a challenge but then became screaming reels and laughing - those golden fish were so obliging! You met some warm and welcoming people too, isn’t fishing great? Beautiful editing as always. I particularly loved the sequence of Håvard missing a fish on the strike with the quick cut to the donkey braying…😂

[@123marius123]
