IN THE PHOTO:

Well - with the great reception of DRIFT (www.confluencefilms.tv) we (Jim Klug and I) are off and running on another fly fishing film. Just days after we started shipping DRIFT dvd's in mass, we jumped on a plane to Venezuela. The location of the first shoot for "RISE" was Los Roques, a national park/chain of islands about 100 miles off the coast. Roques is home to some meaty Bonefish and joining us on the shoot was Millie Paini of Island Park Idaho and Jason Jagger of Steamboat Colorado. Millie's husband Rich also came along to sample what Roques has to offer. We had a great shoot - tons of fish, lots of rain, which lead to lots of mosquitos - but all in all a success. When I got involved in this making of these fly fishing films it was specifically to go to warm locations to shoot - but I had know idea about the bugs. I think I honestly said "I'll take 40 below and a blizzard over these F'ing bugs"
