Well, I am stuck over here playin Army in Kosovo this winter so I am having withdrawals and ordered a fly fishing video from Amazon.com called 'Jum and Kelly Watt's Fly Fishing Video Magazine, Flyfishing with Joseph Butorac on the Sauk and Skagit'. I paid 19.95+ shipping and handling and have to say it was disappointing. Only 30 min long, and they only showed one nice steelie caught. It was a nate though and they released it which pleased me. I would have only paid 9.95 for this one, anyone else seen this video? What about other ones you might recommend for someone who can't fish until May? Thanks guys and girls, fish on. Justin

I don't really care for the Watts video either.
I have seen many of there shows on OLN channel.
You might want to check out "Fly Fishing for Trophy Steelhead" by Lani Waller
Also the Jim Teeny video "Catching More Steelhead"
Lani Waller has many other videos relating to Steelhead Fly Fishing. Two thumbs up.

I have the video and really enjoy it, not because of the Watts or the one steelhead they catch but because of Joe.

Joe was an incredible fisherman and inovator and yet at the same time very modest-almost too modest.

I watch it everyone once in while along with Joe's tying videos because they obviously remind me of Joe. Joe was always so kind and so freindly to me and for that I will be forever grateful.

Anyways, when I first asked Joe about that video he went into about 15 minute about how horrible of fisherman the Watts were and how they didnt listen to a thing he said. I think he wished he would have never of made that video with them...if that video was produced with a couple decent fisherman, I can guarentee you would have seen alot more fish caught!!

What Ryan said.Joe in his time was one of the best rods on the Skagit/Sauk and a lot of other rivers for that matter.That one fish that the Watt's caught was the only one in three days of fishing. You can lead a horse to water but....................

Check out the 3m steelhead series videos.They are top notch.You get to see a chromer take a surface fly! Much better than watchin' Bill Dance gettem em on topwater plugs!
