Arvid casting a fly line in a mountain river

About me

I’m Arvid. I live in Voss and have fished the mountain lakes, rivers and fjord paths of western Norway for forty years, and most weeks I write up where I went and what the fish took.

My report is free. I sell the fly recipe cards I tie from, the fly box with all of them and a sheet of what hatches when. I draw each recipe the way I learned it, one step at a time.

Questions

Which recipe should I start with?

The Pheasant Tail Nymph. It is the fly I tie most, and it catches fish on every water in the box.

How do I get my download?

Every recipe card arrives by email as soon as you pay, and any change I make is free to download again.

How does merch shipping work?

Merch is printed to order and shipped by Printful. You’ll see the cost and delivery time at checkout.

Do I need to be an experienced angler?

No. The recipes name every material, and the first course starts with a bare hook and a vice.
