  • While strike indicators are the common term, Domenick Swentosky writes about them as “suspenders,” a term introduced by George Daniel in his book Dynamic Nymphing. “It’s a brilliant distinction that eliminates confusion and defines the purpose of these small items that we attach to our line.” Via Troutbitten.
  • Brood V is a short film that tells the story of four anglers, two wooden drift boats, three days, and 24 miles of river, all in one float trip centered on the 17-year cicada emergence in western Pennsylvania. View the film here.
  • Land Tawney, CEO of Backcountry Hunters and Anglers, talks about the ins and outs of access laws and resources to know where you can legally fish in each state, in this most recent Orvis Podcast.
