Skagit Master Trailers

Since Adobe Flash has run it course and won’t work on my site, I am posting the 4 trailers for our movies here. Until I get the issue fixed, here is the only place on Skagitmaster.com that you can view them. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Setting the hook

When and how is a great question, with no perfect answer.  I try to address this, in this clip. JM

New clips for steelheaders

I posted a couple new clips for you to check out.  They might help you find fish and fix that casting flaw that might be nagging you.   JM

Casting Switch Rod in Tight Quarters

Most of the time, we are dealing with less than ideal casting conditions.  Here are some simple tips to deal with the brush.

Skagit Lines on Single Handers

I produced a short clip of Yours Truly showing how easy it is to incorporate a Skagit Line into your single hand rod fishing arsenal. For tight quarters, there’s really nothing better: I’m developing SM5 to cover this material, presented by expert anglers dedicated to using Skagit style lines on small rods.  The world of […]

Another Casting Flaw…D Loop Crashes On The Water

by Jeff Mishler I spent some time last week helping a new-to-the-sport angler/buddy work on his casting.  My initial intent was to find a fresh steelhead for him, but his casting flaws brought the line, leader and fly down from the sky in a heap, keeping his fly too close to his casting position for […]

Introducing Dave Pinczkowski!

If you haven’t seen SM4, please check out Tom Larimer’s introduction of the man who has led many down the path of life with a two handed rod. The video is here   JM

Skagit Master 4 Filming in the Midwest

After two weeks of chasing Midwest steelhead, I’m quite happy with how Tom Larimer and his band of steelhead buddies pulled through.  We suffered through the lowest water conditions since 1944.  That’s steelheading.  Fortunately, we caught some fish.  Swung flies through some excellent water using the latest Airflo Lines and Sage ONE Rods.  The WaterMasters […]

Some Reading Material While You Wait For the New Site

Tyler Corke Chapter 2 No Name River #4, BC By Jeff Mishler Lunchtime I angled the sled into some quiet water at the head of Patterson’s Run and came off step.  I nestled the bow in behind a band of rocks and Tyler dropped the anchor off the bow, gave it about two fathoms of […]

Inspired!

To date, I’ve filmed most of the fly tying masters I need for SM3. Still trying to pull a couple grand masters together…But with all of the feathers and fur flying, I realized that my winter box was missing a couple important color combinations, so I went to the vise and cranked one out. Steelhead […]

Tom Larimer keeps us in the loop!

Tis the Season for Poppers

If you haven’t seen this, you could, if you owned SM2. Or watch it here… I looked through my boxes of flies recently and realized I will most likely never use 90% of them. Every time a new fly concept surfaces, it decreases the likelihood even greater. The Ska-opper is a blast to tie. Pop […]

How To: Whatever You Want To

I’ve been working on a “How To” video channel for steelheaders interested in taking their skills to the next level. We produce the Skagit Master DVD’s to help you move up the ladder by refining angling skills using the latest rods, lines and flies. SM3 promises to do the same, but with your fly tying […]

Winter is Winding Down

You wouldn’t know it with the rain we continue to get.   Fortunately, the fish are late, still coming in numbers and the crowds are off chasing bigger chrome stuff.   It’s my favorite time of the year, this late spring thing.  You have the river to yourself, and the fish cooperate if you can […]

Winter is Marabou time

I forgot how much movement marabou produces when the water is cold, off color and the current not too heavy.  Fished these this weekend and love the look. JM

SM2 in Blu Ray???

I was wondering how many of you Skagit Master fans would be interested in an HD/Blu Ray version of our shows.  The best player for Blu Ray I’ve discovered is a Sony Play Station.   So, if you have one of those or a Blu Ray player, are you game?   The retail would be […]

Skagit Master 2 is at the warehouse and on it’s way!

As of December 28th,  our fulfillment company has begun filling pre orders.  No more 3 week wait. If you order now, you will receive the DVD in a matter of days.  Yippie. Thanks, Jeff Mishler
