Oh look, now its all of a sudden a great day. Thanks rolf.

[@jandoege8781]

Ya !

[@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.

[@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!

[@joakimkjell1910]

THE GOAT of producing flyfishing films

[@lucaspendolino]

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

[@gallimaufry5281]

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

[@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!

[@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.

[@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

[@ArthurMartirosya]

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

[@Tfish001]

Beautifully captured and told Rolf. Thanks for the visit!

[@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. 😎🔥🌍

[@AntoanIordanov]

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

[@stevey4192]

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

[@MackWhitcomb]

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

[@betonk.2100]

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

[@FreestoneFF]

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

[@RolfNylinder]

Many thanks!

[@TheFuel89]

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

[@mmmbass6068]

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

[@picon1]

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

[@CrazyAboutFlyFishing]

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

[@swooningloonflyfishing]

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

[@dusty1308]

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

[@raimondasbikauskas]

Great, amaizing , woderful film !!! Thanks

[@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!!!!!

[@mickot3]

Such a beautiful landscape ❤

[@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.”

[@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.

[@milesnordling370]

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

[@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

[@everest001]

Just wonderful as always! Thank you.

[@henrikc.andersson-officiel352]

Helt otroligt som vanligt.

[@Astronotus001]

Beautiful film ! ❤

[@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

[@ssbob6101]

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

[@d.rohrborn6301]

What a great video. You guys connect cultures with fly fishing. Mr. Nylinder thank you for that stuff and big respect to all of your crew. Cheers.

[@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 ❤

[@Adipper]

Great to see the gang back together and new friends in pursuit of Yellow Fish. An incredible adventure well captured and narrated Rolf. Thanks

[@TheXJRMAN]

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

[@fishhandsfranky]

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

[@par-emiljohansson5087]

Tusen tack Roffe, Håvard å Lemke🙌

[@SilentWoods123]

Thanks for bringing to the dry fly and dry land of Afrika!

[@jesperelvin4125]

The donkey laugh timing though! 😂

[@fogbow]

[@markstrempel4747]

[@TheHM78]

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

[@MopFlyProductions.]

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

[@alexredhat3476]

[@prolificnorthwest]

[@petercollin5670]

I'm not sure if I have heard Hovard speak english before. Cool. What a unique story.

[@GregOlson-l4b]

Awesome! Just Awesome! Thanks!!!

[@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🙏🏽

[@markhoffman9655]

Wonderful epic adventure - and some spectacular fishing! Will have to watch this a few more times to drink it ask in ...

[@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 !

[@playhouseinthewoods6103]

Such a treat on a tuesday! Thank you Rolf!

[@RiverBrat]

Beautiful film, thank you Rolf!

[@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…😂

[@tomdemianvingsgard4532]

Thanks for all the good vibes😊

[@JaneHall-n6t]

Memories of 30 years ago with Fred Steinberg

[@bjornrahm5195]

[@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.

[@oscarnorlin8717]
