Ultralight Fly Fishing on the Blanco River, in the Texas Hill Country.

I took my 000wt fly rod up for a day of river fishing with the idea of shooting video of it. The #2 camera crapped out on me that morning at the deep pool, but I wasn’t really catching much there anyway. So I moved on the the Green Mile Run with the GoPro HD camera on a chest mount. The action really picked up on this section and I got a lot of good shots.

    Done deal. As soon as the water is warm and the (hopefully) high waters subside in the spring lets get out there!
