Pursuing Esox

We are happy to announce that in 2014-2015 we will be teaming up with Austin Green, of The Uncommon Angler, in the making of his new film "Pursuing Esox: Musky, Pike and Chain Pickerel on the Fly." Austin is an up and coming photographer that we've been following on Instagram for a while now. He's a wizard behind the lens and his shit is next level. The Teaser for his last film, Gold Rush on Beaver Island, was featured on Phil Monahan's "Orvis News Friday Fly Fishing Film Festival." Needless to say, the dude knows what he is doing and has big things to come; we're sure of it.

Pursuing Esox is the new project that Austin is working on, capturing the craziness that is Fly Fishing for Esox, on film. We're not talking just musky here folks, we're talking all things Esox: Musky, Pike, Pickerel and whatever else may come in between. We will be fishing together as much as our schedules permit to bring you some awesome footage, so stay tuned!  Also, be sure to check out Austin's Blog, The Uncommon Angler, for updates on the film as well as other things fishy. Get ready fellow fishbums, it's about to get greasy.

Below is some footage that I have compiled the last couple weeks with my Go Pro. This is not a teaser of the film, but more-so a little taste of what Fly Fishing for Esox is like. Now, imagine what it will be like with Austin behind the lens! Pretty crazy stuff.
