Throughout the years he has put out 25 longer films and 30 plus shorter films which is truly remarkable.  During the days.  RA is the Director of Marketing and Talent Relations at Breedlove Guitars in Bend OR where he currently resides.  Without further adieu please welcome my good friend RA Beattie to the show.

Our destination is Flaming Gorge near Dutch John, Utah, and the incredible alpine lakes and streams that blanket the high country with guest, expert fly angler, guide, and videographer Ryan Kelly, known on social media as the @GreenRiverFlyFisher.  Few anglers know about the hundreds of alpine lakes and streams in this area, yet for those anglers willing to do a little hiking, the opportunities are endless for backcountry Rainbows, Cutts, Grayling, even Tiger Trout, some topping 20”.          A little bit about Ryan, he has been fishing the Flaming Gorge Area for 40 years and worked in the fly fishing industry for 28.  As a videographer, Ryan is highly sought after with clients such as Simms, FlyLords Magazine, and many of the local businesses.   You'll be blown away by the quality and creativity of his work.  In his movie Escape, which is part of the 2021 Fly Fishing Film Tour, Ryan shares his personal battle with an autoimmune disease that forces him to stay in forced motion to escape the pain.  This movie has some incredible and unique fly fishing footage.   Ryan anticipates it being released soon for the general public.   What's more, Ryan shares some great tips on creating “moments of addiction” with a camera.    So grab your hiking boots and your camera and let's head into high country northern UT with Ryan Kelly!

With the help of Paul Nicoletti and Rex Messing, listeners travel with the crew from Boulder, Colorado to Portland, Oregon. Along the way, we'll revisit our time on the Big Horn River, the Missouri at Craig, a few days on the Madison, and get a taste of steelheading in the PNW. We also take a walk through the hallowed halls of the Simms Fishing Products wader making facility and dig into why Simms chooses to make some, but not all, of their waders in the US. As always, this episode is made possible by the folks at Scott Fly Rods and Yellow Dog Flyfishing Adventures. We truly appreciate their support.

Show Notes:  http://wetflyswing.com/15 In episode 15 of the Fly Fishing show I had the pleasure of interviewing Peter Charles from Hooked4life.com.  Peter teaches steelhead fishing on the Grand River, one of the really classic and challenging Great Lakes Tributaries. Peter brings a unique perspective to steelhead fishing because of the challenges of presenting a fly to steelhead in the Grand River.  Peter talks about how to assure the fly is above their heads.  Lot's of great tips and perspective in this one from one of the best.    Show Notes with Peter Charles: 03:25 - Canadian Tube Fly Company 04:15 - Peter Charles' youtube channel with fly tying videos 05:55 - FFF Federation of Fly Fishers casting instruction 06:20 - Grand River is Peter's home river for steelhead - Great Lakes Trib. 12:40 - Fly Fishing Film Tour 16:16 - Simon Gawesworth interview who covers using intermediate lines 22:15 - Link to the Emerald Shiner and Peter's youtube videos 25:15 - B and C thingy is one of Peter's goto flies 46:00 - If you catch bass in the summer then it will hold steelhead in winter 46:45 - Brown trout Weamer fly tying tutorial - This is a great fly for any species including bass and steelhead 54:00 - Larry Halyk is one of Peter's mentors and a great fisherman 54:50 - Guideline was Peter's first pro company   You can reach Peter at his website:  Hooked4life.ca where he teaches spey casting and is a certified FFF casting instructor.   "The first thing I tell people is that a prey item doesn't charge a predator." -Peter Charles   Peter is a pro for Simms, Loomis, Airflo, Shimano and the Canadian Tube Company.  His skills are obvious as he talks about the research he has put together fishing for steelhead.  Some of the items he notes includes the need to make sure the fly looks natural and is not threatening. Also we chat about the need to remove as many things as we can that might cause a fish to reject a fly.  For example, using too short a leader might be one major reason a fish would not be interested. Are you thinking about how the fly swings in the water?  For example, in very cold water he will use an intermediate line to cover the water effectively.  He also notes that observation is an important thing to focus on before you even start fishing.   [caption id="attachment_2443" align="alignnone" width="566"] B&C Thingy is ready to go[/caption] Conclusion with Peter Charles I wanted to give a big thank you to Peter for coming on the show and providing the great steelhead tips.  He fishes for steelhead in a very challenging place I know we are all going to take away some good stuff from this one.

We push through our hangovers to produce a mostly-coherent conversation about what goes into making a good fly fishing film as well as the multitude of unique story lines that came together to make this so much more than just a film about Brook Trout.

A  great show this week! I had the chance to sit down and talk with Simon Perkins, the newest addition here at Orvis Rod & Tackle about the Fly Fishing Film Tour as well as his own short film, Sipping Dries. We ran the trailer in the podcast feed a few weeks ago. As the main event, I interview my friend Dave Brown of Dave Brown Outfitters on fishing taiwaters, as it seems you guys can't get enough of this topic! In addition, I take a few questions from the podcast listener line. We moved the podcast studio, again. As a result we have had some tech issues with the sound which kept us "off the air" last week. I think it's all worked out. Thanks for sticking with us!

Our own Simon Perkins has a film in this year's Fly Fishing Film Tour. We are going to have him on the show to discuss his film "Sipping Dry" in the coming weeks. In the meantime, check out the trailer. From the website at www.flyfilmtour.com: There are plenty of addictions to get hooked on in the world of fly fishing.  One of the most consuming is the obsession with the dry fly, which explains why anglers travel the globe in search of epic hatches and large trout rising on the surface.  "Sipping Dry" takes you to a place many refer to as the "dry fly capital of the world"--the upper Missouri River near Craig, Montana.  The film introduces a handful of characters who have altered their lives to revolve around this fishery and attempts to convey their infatuation with sipping trout, insane hatches, and the river they consider to be the ultimate in the world of dry fly fishing.
