An International Journey into the Passion of Fly Fishing

Trout Grass traces the cultural and geographic trek of Tonkin bamboo and the people who transform it into a vibrant fly rod. From lush forests in rural China to a rustic workshop in Montana, this unique tale is a scenic and captivating ride into the passion of fly fishing. Directed by veteran cinematographer Ed George, the 50-minute film also features renowned writer and angler Thomas McGuane.

Trout Grass has “the understated elegance of A River Runs Through It,” said the Chicago Tribune. The film achieved success after release in 2005, when it screened at a dozen festivals throughout North America and Europe. Winning “Best of Festival” and “Audience Choice” in several cities, Trout Grass also aired on PBS affiliates throughout the western U.S.
