Regarding your confession that you have never read ‘Floating Flies...’, Mark Twain once said that a classic is a book that everyone talks about but no one reads.

[@colinjohnston5465]

Lovely seeing you guys fishing on the Test. The river made the national news in the UK last month because the water company wanted to dump raw sewage into it rather than having to pay to process it which they are paid to do. There was a national out cry and the water company changed their mind... Unbelievable that company executives believe dump raw sewage in a precious ecosystem is a good idea.

[@ArthurMartirosya]

Rolf your videos are absolutely brilliant. They are very different from the shiny commercial fly fishing stuff. I get back and watch these again and again. Thanks a lot!

[@Nickjhuisintveld]

Same story for me!

[@innovativeatavist159]

This man's body of work is impressive.

[@MF-CLIMB]

Why would anyone ‘dislike’ this video? Absolutely brilliant. Thank you

[@mantismamba]

Agree! Probably jealous of how good the film is

[@mythandmischief1675]

Just thinking the same thing. Rolf's videos are some of the best storytelling on KZbin. Plus Trout!

[@MF-CLIMB]

@@mythandmischief1675 I’m not even into fishing but I love his videos.

[@buckshot2280]

Someone left the gate open at the tard farm again , a few got out and went on a dislike spree 👎👎👎👎 🤣🤣🤣

[@nalimenemax2653]

I think some ears could have aversion to high pitch male voices? I mean, wtv. floats your boat ..for me good camera takes, healthy looking fish ..not a dislike, I'm just muting the sound, sorry

[@cymbolic_space1832]

thank you kind fellows. as the snow piles outside my window, and the holiday intertia comes to an end, my last day before returning to the labour finds me enjoying your adventures. im dreaming of the end of spring run off, the calming of my mountain stream, and the snap of a rising cut throat to a royal coachman floating rapidly along its surface. these celluloid moments quell the yearning just enough to manage a few more months of old man winter. if ever you find yourself in british columbia, find me on the stream and i will show you wild creeks.

[@alexhoskinson4253]

"And perhaps I wasn't a very good father...at least not in June." Haha, love the dry humorous lines. Nice work man!

[@gravebow9677]

Amazing film. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry at 30:16. We've all felt that dread of losing a great fish. Much love from Texas.

[@3000waterman]

I live within a few minutes of the Test, and its fishing is pure bliss. I've fished northern Sweden too, and found the blood loss to mosquitoes, with their incessant buzzing in my ears, just too much to be pleasurable. I guess I'm a wimp. Anyway, this film was a great pleasure to view, and it catches the obsession that fishing can be. Thank goodness, that overwhelming obsession has dwindled just a little in me, so sleep comes more easily.

[@charlieboutin3341]

One of the best movie/videos I’ve ever seen in my 58 year life. Incredibly well done! 👍👍 Thank you and Best wishes from Texas! 🎣

[@jlreuvers]

In so many ways this is an exceptional film. Great details like some comments, design of the title screens and the good taste of background sounds. This film makes you feel the flyfishing emotions, like wondering if there is fish in the stream, wondering how to catch a fish you see, catching a fish, feeling insecure about your approach, solving the puzzle and so on. A film worth watching twice to see and learn more. Thanks a lot!

[@elisjournal4435]

Absolutely Jos! He does such a good job of highlighting one of the greatest joys of fly fishing; the puzzle-solving. I am working on highlighting that in my own future videos, and this is a great example of how to do it!

[@influuntmedia4083]

Have already seen it a hundred times, but why not see it again 😂😍

[@phils8393]

I grew up in Romsey town on the river test , when I was a kid we used to fish all the secret places on the test every day . I live now over in the Alps in Europe now, your video brought back fond memories

[@gnsrobz]

This is legitimately an epic piece of film making! Authentic, entertaining and funny! What a legend! This guy deserves 14 million subscribers let alone 14 thousand!

[@elisjournal4435]

Seriously! Makes my vlogging-style look like amateur hour haha!

[@philipnelson1234]

Loved the beginning about the English traditions, it gives our sport an elitist rep. But Rolf and his pals are down-to-earth funny dudes.

[@angusmcangus7914]

A fabulous film. The very essence of fly-fishing. Well done.

[@everest001]

Just brilliant work, Rolf, seriously. I could smell the cow parsley. This is the best fishing film I've seen all year.

[@korriebroos5804]

Rolf Nylinder's movies brings so much joy to me. It is what real fly fishing is like, Getting stuck in trees with the fly, snapping off on a good fish, missing takes, I have watched all of his movies, SUPER>

[@elisjournal4435]
