There is some objectionable language in the video so if you are against that type of thing, don’t press play. Otherwise, get down….

If you are a trout bum and literature fanatic like me, you know who Ernest Schwiebert was (Matching the Hatch, Trout, Nymphs, etc). He died in 2005 but I happened across his estate auction on Ebay this evening. There are some fantastic original artwork items on there and also much of his equipment which is to die for. I’m going to see if I can at least “win” something. Good bidding!

I’ve been waiting for this film to arrive at my home since I finished my 10th-ish viewing of Trout Bum Diaries Volume II: Kiwi Camo. I’m addicted to the action and adventure that these lucky SOBs experience.

This trip was a bit different than their last. They weren’t the obvious masters of their environment. It made me, Anglerwannabe, a very happy guy. Not that I don’t want them to catch fish that make us all sick, but it’s nice to know that fishing can be hard for everyone. Now, fishing the little pond/lake/puddle across the street from me aint easy so going to a foreign country and relying on people that don’t speak my language to provide transportation and yack hair is darn near unfathomable for me. I don’t think I’ll ever have the opportunity to try something like that.

The DVD had really nice landscape photography they are known for mixed in with close-ups of the catfish-head salmonid called Taimen. It had some typical hungover tent scenes. It had a few fish-on (or beast-on) sequences though noticeably less than previous films. That didn’t distract from my enjoyment though. The AEG boys are really getting good at making these types of flicks. I don’t want to go too much in to detail about it as the trailer for the film does a good job.

I’m so excited.When I checked my mail today, I was greeted by a dvd mailer that had an AEG address on the outside. Either they were sending me a thank you package for my music suggestion for their next film (I Hear Sirens) or their third feature film had just arrived. It was the latter, but I’m still thrilled. Of all the DVDs I have, the AEG Media films are my favorites (though the Sporting Fly DVDs are a close second).I’ll post a review later.Woo hoo!
