*Project Background:
‘Our Two Hands’ is an investigation into our societies complex and intimate relationship to fly fishing for Salmonids. How did we arrive at this crossroads of conservation and sportsmanship and what are the creative alternatives to the currently flawed management practices for Salmon and Steelhead? The balance and longevity of steelhead fly fishing culture lies in the fate of these fish. The beauty and pursuit of these fish has created a culture, community, and livelihood for recreational fly anglers, guides, small companies, artists and many others around the world. We want to introduce you to the new efforts being made in the conservation arena. The economics of fishery management, the guides on the river day in and day out, and the culture of two-handed rods and the swung fly. We could eventually lose the cumulative experience if we don’t input a transfiguration of fishery management, re-think our world views regarding technology and nature, and come together as a community.
Thank You,
Bloodknots Fly Fishing
