My wife is a movie-phile and subscribes to NetFlix.
She is also in NYC right now on a vacation. When we chatted on the phone
I mentioned that her new DVD had come in the mail. She replied, "Open it
and watch it, then go ahead and send it back." I argued that I wasn't
that interested but she insisted that I open it. The sweet, dear thing
had put a Kelly Galloup DVD about the Madison on her list thinking of me all
alone and bored while she's gone ... <G> I watched it last evening.
Review: Worth the price we paid ( nothing extra ) but not much more than
that. Maybe a person that has never been to the area and has very little
overall FFing experience would find it useful, but there is little that
can't be learned in 5 minutes in any area fly shop ( accesses, reasonable
fly selection ) . Production quality is borderline amateurish, and there
is damn little attractive footage even though it's shot in a beautiful area.
I didn't even feel a restless need to get on the road and go fishing after
watching it ... something fish porn nearly always does to me ...
the one thing I did like was that few fish were caught and none were big ...
made me feel like a better angler than some videos where every cast nets a
whale <G>
