New on MidCurrent : Fly Fishing Photography

March 17, 2009 By: Marshall Cutchin

“Not your average fly fishing photos” is how one previewer described the images included in our new Photography section on MidCurrent. And that comment is exactly what we were hoping for. We’ve long believed that the really terrific images — the shots that photographers take when they try to capture the quintessential moments of fly fishing — deserve more attention.
The artists here are a mix of well-published photographers and relative unknowns, but they are all serious anglers with clear and celebratory visions of what the sport is about. And we’ll be publishing work by many more photographers as the weeks roll by. Be sure to let these contributors know how much you appreciate what they are doing. It is becoming more and more difficult for photographers to make a living photographing fish, but in our opinion they are an essential part of the sport.
