Fish Tales


EVERY SO OFTEN we receive an unsolicited story from one of our subscribers that reminds us that you don't have to be a professional writer to pull in readers and make them feel transported, if only for a few minutes. "An Alaska Story," sent to us by Stephen Kyle, is just such a piece.

Don't forget to check out MidCurrent's 2021 Holiday Fly Fishing Gift Guide. We highlight more than 20 great gift ideas that start at $8 and top out north of $1000. There's something there for everyone.

Tim Flager demonstrates how to tie the Grizzly King in this week's featured tying video. "The Grizzly King is an ancient fly pattern, think England, early 1800s," notes Flagler.
