Blood Knot DVD

With Brian and Colby Trow

Two hours outside of our nation's capital, the Shenandoah Valley offers an incredibly diverse, and largely unheralded, freshwater fishery. Seldom are native mountain brook trout and large spring creek rainbows and browns in such close proximity to some of the best smallmouth, carp and musky fishing in the country. Twin brothers Brian and Colby Trow are determined to use their love of fly fishing together to make a name for the sport in their native state of Virginia. More than ten years and one nasty economic recession later, Brian and Colby understand the risks and costs of running a small business. Success often takes long hours and time away from family, but it is time on the water together that keeps them going strong.

“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten” - Benjamin Franklin

"Be sure in casting, that your fly fall first into the water, for if the line fall first, it scares or frightens the fish..." -
Col. Robert Venables 1662

As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.

We've all had situations where seriously chewed up flies kept catching fish after fish after fish. It is no sin to tie flies that come off the vise looking seriously chewed up.

Warning:

The hooks are sharp.
The coffee's hot.
The fish are slippery when wet.

Beware of the Dogma

All the hooks sold on TenkaraBum.com, whether packaged as loose hooks or incorporated into flies, are sharp - or as Daiichi says on their hook packages, Dangerously Sharp. Some have barbs, which make removal from skin, eyes or clothing difficult. Wear eye protection. Wear a broad-brimmed hat. If you fish with or around children, bend down all hook barbs and make sure the children wear eye protection and broad-brimmed hats. Be aware of your back cast so no one gets hooked.

Also, all the rods sold on TenkaraBum.com will conduct electricity. Do not, under any circumstances, fish during a thunder storm. Consider any fishing rod to be a lightning rod! Fishing rods can and do get hit by lightning!
