"Friends of Back Cast Fly Fishing Film Festival" anchor Pre-Event Social Gathering

Several old Friends and a couple of new ones set the tone for a lively social atmosphere as film fest fans streamed into the Cardel Theatre lobby. I always appreciate the time and energy everyone puts into making Back Cast FFFF a very special evening for the local fly fishing community.

They did a fine job of serving up generous portions of Perogies in three variations. And yes, the Chocolate Dessert Perogies tasted just a good as they looked!

'NOT YET BEGUN TO FIGHT' coming to Calgary Feb 19, 2014!

CANADIAN PREMIERE

In the space between war and a new battle, NOT YET BEGUN TO FIGHT unfolds. A retired Marine Colonel reaches out to five men, a new generation returning from combat. He brings them to the river. He puts a fly rod into their hand, teaches them to cast, and shares his secret: there are places where you can still be consumed by a simple act, find joy in a fight, and be redeemed as you gently release another creature, unharmed, into quiet waters.

'FALL RUN' coming to Calgary Feb 19, 2014!

CANADIAN PREMIERE

2014 | Official Selection | Wild & Scenic Film Festival

“Fall Run” is the ultimate Pacific Northwest steelhead adventure. This is the true story every angler dreams about retelling around the campfire forever. Hooking and landing a steelhead on a fly is not easy. It is arguably the most difficult type of fly fishing in the world. Add the challenges of Mother Nature’s moods, an unpredictable wild creature and one single, split-moment chance to capture it all on film……..and you’ve got a recipe for a movie house flop. But against all possible odds, luck lands on the right side for the filming of this high-action angling adventure.
