Delay (and 5 shots)

We´re terribly sorry, but – surprise – the release of Season One on DVD is delayed… Our best estimate as of tonight is three or four weeks from now. We´ll get back to you with the exact release date very soon. The whole thing is done (and we´re pretty excited about how it turned out,… Read more »

A day in the life

Yes, that name is a bit stolen, I have to admit that… think it is ok. A day in the life, great tune by the way! Went fishing today as usual. Many small trout were landed, but the big ones knew how to avoid the fly. Here are some moments from today and yesterday: 1…. Read more »

The jazz bread

The beginning of April 2012 is freezing cold. I have now been fishing quite a lot for a couple of days. I´m not sure it is a good idea, being a musician, to transform the fingers to stiff ice sticks. Can it really be healthy? Maybe somebody out there nows more about it. My legs… Read more »

Pontza's 1st of April photos

As a reply to Fredrik’s hilarious description of our 1st of April trip, I will now post some photos in behalf of my new alter ego Ponza Luvainen. Pontza indeed has vodka in his vains and that makes him immune to the cold water and wind. When others lied in the sun and warmed their… Read more »

Falling down on the ground

I have had two very busy weeks, packed with teaching, gigs and rehearsals, fly tying, grass fishing and a lot of other strange activities.

Bokeh Monster: The Meyer Görlitz 135mm

Colors

Tapani is working hard at the moment. Jazz & Fly Fishing´s Season One is soon up for release on DVD, and Tapani has gotten the important but dirty job of color correcting and color grading the whole 9 episodes. This is a massive job, since it involves adjusting the esthetics of the picture in every… Read more »

Interview and CD review online at jazzconvention.net

The Italian jazz site JazzConvention (J.C.) has just published an interview with a couple of the Jazz & Fly Fishing guys. Read it, and you’ll find answers to questions such as “If each of you were a fish, which fish would it be?” or “Who, among you, has the best score in fishing?” There’s also… Read more »

Signs of Life

After a long, dark winter things are finally starting to look better. Today it’s vernal equinox, and the lighter 6 months are ahead of us! Two weeks ago I saw the first flying insects this year, me and Fredrik have filled our fly boxes for the seatrout season, and the lakes are inevitably losing their… Read more »
