We’re busy at work this week and feeling under the weather, so this week’s Shout Out is short and sweet. We stumbled across the trailer for “Kiss the Water” a few days ago and have been excited to add this documentary to our “Must Watch” list of fly fishing movies. Directed by Eric Steel, (the same guy that did “The Bridge,” the documentary that chronicled a year of suicides on the Golden Gate Bridge) this visually stunning flick crosses the pond to tell the story of the late Megan Boyd. Although never having fished a day in her life, Boyd had a reputation for tying flies so intricate and memorable it earned her the British Empire Medal from Queen Elizabeth II.
If you’re a fly tying fanatic, be sure to check it out some time. Vimeo even has is for rental and for sale on their VOD service.
Tight lines!
