1. Fly fishing professional photographer and Epic Ambassador Jess McGlothlin traverses an alphabet of destinations from the Amazon to Baja and onto Columbia and Darien Lodge. Is Ecuador next?

2. The Angler hat collab between author David Coggins and Cody Wellema of the Wellema Hat Company makes me want to hand in my sombrero and shift to the USA.

3. Normal transmission resumes in the Bonefish paradise of New Caledonia with the end of its state of emergency. Let’s make a plan to fish there together if you want to chase BIG bones in 2025.

4. The fly tying vices and accessories crafted by Switzerland-based Petitjean Fishing Equipment SA are simply divine.

5. How important is cold clean water? Richard Wilson’s May 23 article: Atlantic Salmon: On The Brink of Extinction carries an abundance of alarming facts.
