Fly Fishing

Fly Fishing Tunes -- solid new blog

For me, and I think for a lot of folks, there is a natural and close connection between fly fishing and music. Whether it’s the recorded music played in the truck on the way to the stream or the live music in the bar after a long, great day on the river, music accompanies much — not all — of the fly fishing experience. There is, of course, time in the river, when the only music comes from the water rushing over the rocks and the wind in the trees.

Thes site -- www.reelgrea.se -- is about the songs that—I think—are best suited to “before” and “after” parts. It goes way beyond old The Who and Zeppelin CDs (though we do appreciate those too). These are songs that could be, should be, and are being, heard live in the bars and saloons of the great fly fishing towns across America today—places like Missoula, Redding, Bend, Mountain Home, West Yellowstone, Jackson, and Truckee.

These songs exist at the intersections of blues music, rock & roll, country, alt. country, folk, gospel, bluegrass, and Americana.

These are great songs . . . Come check 'em out.
