The Dead Drift DVD- featuring Dean Bell
Available for preview and purchase here! I recently got my hands on a copy of "The Dead Drift" the latest offering for Stealth Films of New Zealand. There are a lot of fly fishing films out there. Lately the style of film that has been popular is the intense fish porn variety. Lots of music and jumping fish, slow motion takes and screaming reels. Nothing wrong with that, and it makes you want to fish but you don't learn much from those films. "The Dead Drift" is not that kind of film. It's beautifully filmed and full of great fishing moments but what sets it apart for me is the educational value. Host, Dean Bell, does a remarkable job of explaining his strategy as well as tactics while vacuuming some lovely New Zealand rivers. If your like me you don't need a DVD to tell you that you want to fish New Zealand but there's a lot to be said for one that tells you how to make your trip a success. Louie Cahill, USA
