Jazz & Fly Fishing - Season One
Jazz & Fly Fishing is a jazz quartet, a fly fishing community and a surrealistic film project rolled into one. It all started in Helsinki in 2008. Two young men met in a pub and came up with the idea to put together a jazz band of fly fishermen - and film it. Season One tells the story of the band's 2009 tour in northern Scandinavia.
Off The Grid
RA Beattie's new production Off the Grid, is a collection of films from two years on the road - fishing and filming in an assortment of locations around the world. All of the films are connected by a common theme: they highlight people, places and fish, that were out of the ordinary. Avoiding the "Big Name" waters, hatches and fishing grounds the film showcases fly fishing in a different light.

Flyfishing
Rivers:-
Stream levels are still looking pretty good . Thredbo and Eucumbene rivers are at a very fishable level and will and have produced some great dry fly action. The weekend just gone has been very warm with good Hatches so thing should be picking up over Christmas . The Thredbo has been fishing very well down below the bridge with good reports off rainbows and a few browns in the last week once again things are looking good for Christmas . Best areas to look at is in the higher reaches around Kyandra or up around Tantangara we have been getting some good reports off bigger fish. The Thredbo river has been fishing well around the Thredbo village with some good reports off brown been Caught.
Best areas have been the upper Euc and up around the Thredbo village using B/H Nymphs , Klinkhammers, Humpy Royals, Adams parachutes.
Try not going to heavy on the tippet with the water being so clear around 4lb to 5lb will do the trick.
Lake Eucumbene:-
fishing is starting to get better and better so everyone should have a good time over Christmas
Reports have been better over the week around Rushy bay down below the toilets with rainbows moving in closer and around Midway Point . Wet flies on dark are the best options with Craig’s Nigh time, brown and black Beetles, Fuzzy Wuzzy, Woolly Buggers are the best patterns to try. Homeleigh Bay, Rainbow Pines, Seven Gates and the River Mouth are the best spots to look at. Pick areas with good weed beds and some depth. Searching out clear water is a must as wave action is stirring up some areas and making the water cloudy. Just been getting good reports around Rushys bay and around seven gates the rainbows are starting to come in closer. Most fisherman are starting to strip there fly’s faster so when using woolly buggers get them moving. I have been using size 12 fuzzy Wuzzys and getting good results.
My best fly’s have been fuzzy Wuzzys, black woolly buggers, black Muddlers,
The Mudeyes have been moving around now so the fishing is starting to improve.
Good reports around Seven gates green Nymphs, tom Jones, Olive woolly buggers
Lake Tantangara :-A few very nice quality fish have been reported but not much in the way of numbers at this stage. Reports suggest that the fishing has improved over the past week.
Best flies will be small nymphs both beadhead and unweighed, stick caddis, caddis pupa, Klinkhammers, black wolly worms, Mark2 Woollie Buggers and woolly worms and buggers
Lake Jindabyne fly: 'NEEDING MORE REPORTS'
Still no current Jindy fly reports. What we here the water is warm and the fishing is Slow So if you are out there fishing go deep and slow
Best time off the day would be late around 6pm till dark. The only tip I can give you is good luck 
Jindabyne:- Spinning and Trolling no Reports
Eucumbene:- Trolling and Spinning
Eucumbene:- Reports from the lake have been ok.Launching access is available at Old Adaminaby, Anglers Reach, Dam Wall . With cooler conditions there should be a few more fish taking shallow running minnows and Tassie Devils, strike pro blades and X-Rap Rapalas, RMG Scorpions this week.
Mostly flatline tassies and small minnows. There are fish in close and on top early in the day but as the sun gets up going wider and deeper is the best bet.
Tassies in, 89,105,pp,48,y62,73,23,88and most of the new Tassie are getting some good fish. and any of the yellow wing patterns have been excellent S12 is working well. Dual Depth versions are a good option for getting down a fraction deeper.Best Stinger Lures are 17,18,25,3,4,22,11, Strike Pro Blades and Min Mins are working very well
