Via @finripplemedia // Dragonflies utilize a combination of remarkable flight abilities and exceptional eyesight to evade becoming a trout’s next meal. Here’s how they manage to stay one wing-beat ahead:
1. Agile Flight: Dragonflies can fly in any direction, including upward, downward, forward, backward, and hover in place. This agility allows them to make sudden, unpredictable movements to evade predators like trout, which may leap from the water to catch them.
2. Rapid Response: Their ability to change direction almost instantly makes it difficult for predators to predict their flight path. This rapid response is crucial when evading fast-moving predators.
3. Near-360-Degree Vision: The large, compound eyes of dragonflies provide them with a wide field of vision, allowing them to detect motion from almost every angle. This nearly panoramic sight enables them to spot approaching predators quickly.
4. Environmental Awareness: Dragonflies are very aware of their surroundings and can use vegetation and water surfaces to their advantage, making sharp turns around obstacles where their pursuers cannot follow.
5. Heightened Perception: The dragonfly’s exceptional eyesight is not just about the wide field of view; it also allows them to perceive movements at a distance, giving them more time to react and evade.
6. Speed: Dragonflies can reach speeds of up to 30 miles per hour, enabling them to outpace many predators, including the swift movements of hunting trout.

Fast water and a dancing caddis can make for some epic takes! Missing those summer afternoons…

Free Falling
Free falling is a fly fishing documentary on Baltic salmon in northern Sweden, shedding light on the drastic decline in salmon migration in the wild rivers up north during recent years. Free falling is a spiritual sequel to Home rivers recycled, a documentary released by Undefined flyfishing project telling the success of the Baltic salmon. (FULL FILM LINK BELOW)
It was a classic comeback story on how the salmon went from being almost extinct to inhabit the northern rivers in such a way that the Torneälven was considered one of the most prolific Atlantic salmon River system in the world.
Home rivers recycled ended with a pledge, to revisit the story in 25 years but solely 2,5 years later it looks like the salmon populations in the Baltic Sea are free falling. This concern pushed the production of making Free falling — a testimony
of what fly fishers along the wild rivers in Sweden are experience in 2024.
The film follows Emilie Björkman and Lars Munk during the season of 2024 in the Swedish salmon rivers up north, as the live life as free, roaming fly fishers; but it also mixes in conservationists and scientists trying to explain what has
happened and why it’s happening.
This is a story about the urgent, biological situation but also give you a glimpse into some of the people whose lives is deeply interconnected with the salmon.
One could argue, when those people glance into the future without the presence of wild salmon, they are also in somewhat of a free fall.
Free falling is produced by Undefined flyfishing project with support from Hooke, Loop, Patagonia, Vision flyfishing, Costa del mar, Ahrex hooks, Nám products, Sportfiskarna, Baltic salmon fund, Stiftelsen Vindelälvsfisket.

Via @theflyfishingnation // Some Yucatan permit vibes! 🇲🇽 Sound up.
Si returned to @xcalakonthefly in October last year for the first time since wrapping up filming “What Lies Above” about the floating crab eating permit down there in June 2023. This time it was about putting the camera down and just enjoying the fishery! A sort of celebration with Chase after the film made its way around the world in the @flyfishingfilmtour in 2024. He asked legendary @alphonsefishingco guide @garydeklerk to come along for the trip and help capture some of the experience, and what a trip it was. Si managed his first ever tarpon (albeit juvenile), on a floating crab and with that his first ever grand slam! For gary it was his first trip targeting atlantics and target them he did. Pure class. They were trying out the @scientificanglers Magnitude Clear tip lines and needless to say, they did the trick! Si was fishing the @lamsonflyfishing cobalt 8 most of the time and it performed once again.
Great memories, many margaritas, a great group and as always wonderful fishing. And some permit tattoos too…
Some places you just attach to, you crave, you connect with. Needless to say it’s a place we’ll be retuning to every year!
To join the fun this year or find out more about the place shoot us a DM or email [email protected].
Big thanks to Chase and the team at @xcalakonthefly for the hospitality and the guides for putting onto some amazing fish.
Short clip that tries to give the essence of what fishing at @xcalakonthefly feels like. Some footage from October and some from previous trips.
You can also watch “What Lies Above” on our YouTube channel if you haven’t yet. Link in bio.
