Good people,
This is the first post for the GFF Summit 2007. We will use this forum for all the practical arrangements, discussions and contacts for driving etc.
Read the intro and sign up in this article.

First call
The forums are very quiet
The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF forum is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads and reply to old ones. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

I am in!
So the venue has stayed the same, I hoped for that deserted island Ripley talked about last year. However, wherewer it´ll take place, I cannot miss it 😄

Hi Vanuz,
Don't worry to much about the Island.
The option given is the best by far and gives more choice and flexibility.
Besides, Steve and I will be out fishing on the Friday (AGAIN), to reap all the fish!!!
Remember last time? 😄
All being told, Steve and I landed about 25 fish at the last GFF summit, on the Friday between 50 and 60cm. A couple attached.
This year I intend to catch bigger fish. The heat is on...!
See you soon Vanuz!

Please, tell me where you hide the "cage" this year 😄
Cage Vs Divers
1. Cages will be placed at certain intervals along the coast.
2. In addition we are considering divers that will swim around and physically hook the sea trout on my fly.
I will have a couple of nice sea trout in the back of my car for those that wish to buy one at the weekend.

Hi Ripley,
Hi Ripley,
Your idea with the diver …, I think this is not going to work well!
Today I created a “fly” for diver fishing and I’m just going to prove it in September.
Oh by the way, please don’t wade to deep at the same time (not deeper than 6 or 7 cm), because I’m not absolutely sure if the “fly” knows the difference between a diver and a fly fisher. 😉
See you soon
Kai
?
Looks like a golden retreiver tied of with the propeller from the Titanic - but just polished up?

No Ripley,
No Ripley,
not a Golden Retriever!
The archetype is the Beast of Baskerville - see and feel it in aktion.
I have already tied one for Henning, did you want a special one for your own?
Kind regards
Kai
Yep
Hi Kai,
By all means...Tie me one. I'll try it.
I will be using a very simple tried and tested fly at the summit which I am sure will do me proud!
The waters very "ripley".
