Angler's Year
Top Ten, Flies for Ireland
This DVD is a must for every fisherman who wants to learn the delicate art of
flytying. Dietrich's enthusiasm for fishing shines as he methodically guides
the fishing fraternity through the complex task of making a fly.
Punctuated throughout this DVD is the success rate of choosing the right fly
for each occasion.
The beautiful scenery enhances the pleasure of this film, as does the dry
humour of his eccentric English friend "the great Raymondo". Watch as they
tramp the landscape, dressed as if extras in Monty Python's Quest for the Holy
Grail, (which in a sense they are, in a fishy sort of way).
114 minutes of fly-tying and fishing. Dietrich Bohnhorst's entertaining and
practical guide for every game angler. On DVD for only EURO 20

In Ireland there is always something to catch
The angling season, or the angler's year in Ireland is more or less identical with the calendar year.
Most coarse fishing can be practiced all year round and even the salmon season
is all in all over nine months long.
Generally we have a trout season lasting from March, in some areas even
February, till the end of September, beginning of October.
Sea angling is a 12 months, all year round pleasure, providing the weather
being suitable.
In other words: In Ireland there is always something to catch, no matter what
time of year.
In this section of our website you will find various essays and stories
regarding the seasons and how the angler can handle or better, tackle
them.
DEDICATION
In 1995 Dietrich Bohnhorst and Ray Robinson produced DEDICATION, a four part movie, following two dedicated fly-fishers through various entertaining and exciting expeditions on land and sea in the North-West of Ireland.
After DEDICATION was shown on European TV via French Station AB-Sat and in
North America via a cable network it became somewhat of an angler's cult film.
All 107 minutes of DEDICATION are available for only €20 on DVD in library
case;
or order by phone

DEDICATION is not a how to or where to go program. It's a slice of life.
DEDICATION is a rambling fishy tail of two awld fellers as grizzled as the
hills they roam, searching for the ultimate fish.
Indispersed with the actual fishing are numerous fly-tying tips, essential to
every madman, crazy enough to follow their examples.
What is not in doubt in DEDICATION (apart from the stunning photography) is the
sheer joy of fishing in all weathers by two men who know what they are talking
about, - and can (almost) convince even the most sceptical about the "one that
got away".
