Welcome to Hans Weilenmann
Flytier's Page
4892 patterns and climbing by 264 tiers, fully illustrated & described
Hans Weilenmann is familiar to many as a demonstration tier at fly-fishing shows, both in Europe and North America. His articles and reviews have featured in several books and magazines, including Fly Fisherman magazine.
Hans has been tying flies for more years than he cares to remember. Simple, yet effective patterns for trout and grayling are his forte’. He has been known to tie flies too small to be seen by most anglers, but which are certainly noticed by the fish.
Another of Hans’ specialties is the use of cul de canard in a variety of patterns, notably in his signature fly.
His interest in fly-tying, macro photography, and a background in computing and networking, all came together in Fly tier's Page, a web site he created as a gallery of fly tiers the world over,and their patterns.

Developed by professional research engineer and fly tier Norm Norlander, the Nor-Vise and Automatic Bobbin are truly innovative tools.
Unlike other “rotary vises” that simply "rotate" to position the hook, the Nor-Vise is designed to “spin” the hook to apply material. With the hook shank held in perfect alignment with the axis of rotation (on centerline) it works like a lathe and provides for better thread tension control and more precise material placement.
About the Nor-Vise
I personally rate this Fly Tying Vice as the best for both quality and innovation on the market.

'The Fraternity of Fly Fishers'
"The literature of fly-fishing is a minefield of disagreement ...on issues of momentous inconsequence." Brian Clark and John Goddard, The Trout & The Fly [1980]
I've been incredibly lucky. Early exposure to the outdoors, fishing with my dad and grandfather brought me to fly fishing way ahead of schedule. Gramps relented and taught me to fly cast when I was eleven. The old European method, standing in the stream, hard-cover book under my right elbow with the warning, "now we aren't going to get the book wet are we dear."

About Us
The Glasgow Angling Centre story begins over 21 years ago in the famous Barrowland Market in Glasgow.
The Managing Director and owner Paul Devlin started with a small market stall in the Barras selling mostly second hand tackle but quickly progressed, due to demand, to a larger market stall. The first shop opened in the village of Cumbernauld, on the outskirts of Glasgow, which is still open to this day and is as welcoming as when it first opened.
They also have 4 members of staff who have proudly represented Scotland internationally in Fly Fishing and Coarse Angling. In addition 3 fully qualified instructors and coaches, therefore, if you need any advice GAC always has someone with the necessary skills and experience to help.
Matching the Hatch
Two morons rent a boat and go fishing. They catch a lot of fish and return to the shore. 1st moron: I hope you remember the spot where we caught all those fish.
2nd moron: Yes, I made an 'X' on the side of the boat to mark the spot.
1st moron: You idiot! How do you know we'll get the same boat?

The Global FlyFisher started as a strike of luck, a flap of a butterfly's wing, a mere coincidence - more than 10 years ago.
By The GFF partnersAs many other great web sites, The Global FlyFisher was built on good intentions by a bunch of guys who mostly by chance met through the Internet back when that was still a fairly uncommon way of getting in contact.
Two personal homepages
Back in 1994 and 1995 Steve Schweitzer and Martin Joergensen sat thousands of miles apart and maintained each their personal little addition to the already then growing wealth of web sites out there.
This took place back somewhere in the transition between the years 1994, 1995 and 1996. They had each built a page with information on their home waters: Steve had a site about the US Midwest and Martin a site that dealt with Denmark, the Baltic and Northern Europe.

Fly Tying Forum some useful Contacts and ideas.
Jesus, Moses and God are out fishing for Rainbow Trout at Westlow in the new boat.
Jesus gets out of the boat, walks on the water and starts casting in all directions with his black Mop. After an hour with no success he says "God damn it." "You must have more patience my son," God replies.
Moses then parts the water, gets out of the boat and starts walking on the dry land and starts casting on either side of him with his favorite White Mop. After an hour of no luck he says "God damn it" God replies "Patience is a virtue my son".
Moses gets back in the boat and the lake returns to normal.
God then borrows Jesus' Black Mop and proceeds to catch five large Rainbows. He then borrows Moses' White Mop and catches another five large Rainbows. Jesus turns to Moses and says "Who does God think he is anyway",

Fly Fishing for Beginners
Welcome to the Fly Fishing for beginners website, a "fly fishing 101" primer
where we aim to educate not only beginners but novices as well. If you're
looking for some darn good trout fly fishing basics and fly tying information
and resources, you've come to the right place
With this Fly Fishing for beginners site I aim to slowly walk the beginning fly fisher (and even the novice), one step at a time, through a quick and simple fly fishing for beginners course, learning the fly fishing basics and some of the equipment so they can make an informed decision before purchasing anything. Then we'll dig in to learn how to assemble the gear, the frequently used fly fishing knots, a little about trout behavior and the difference between the trout species and we'll even review some fly fishing etiquette. After that, we'll spend some time on fly tying in the Fly Tying 101 section. We'll start with the fly tying basics and then we'll discuss the tools and materials needed and then we'll review the more popular flies used for trout (including a hatch chart). I never had a true appreciation of fly fishing until I took a fly tying for beginners class and began tying my own flies. I hope that each person visiting this site will consider taking up fly tying themselves or at least trying it. I've found it to be very fulfilling and relaxing and a great winter time activity. There's nothing like catching a beautiful trout on an imitation that you tied yourself. In a sense this is a simplified Fly Fishing 101 and/or a Fly Tying 101 course.

Loren is also a very popular public speaker, regularly presenting on topics relating to fly-fishing for salmon, steelhead and trout.

Dear Friends!
I am glad to welcome you to the MEGOFF website! For more than 14 years I have been producing fly reels for you.
The first MEGOFF fly reel by was designed and produced by me in 1996. I used my knowledge in aeronautical engineering and experience in the aerospace industry to create a comfortable and functional fly reel for myself.
Since then, many years have passed and I have designed and created a lot of reels, but every new reel is created in same way, as if I am making it for myself. I produce a limited number of each reel model. Often, reels are made as one of, unique, single items. Such approach raises the process of creating reels to an art. Reels by MEGOFF are not just superb fishing tools, but also the realization of my creative abilities. Since 1999, I have learnt to master the techniques and skills required to produce reels from titanium alloys. At the present time, the production of titanium reels is one of the main focuses of my work.
Recently, one of the aspects of my work has been the development of new reeldesigns under orders for other manufacturers. Years of experience and the introduction of modern three-dimensional computer-aided design allows MEGOFF to successfully develop innovative and unique reels that combine the best elements of modern and classic design. I am always glad of your interest to the MEGOFF reels and I am ready to personally answer your questions.
