Just saying Hi

Hi all,

Just recently discovered this site, looking very good! I'm hooked on flyfishing for 2 years now and was looking for a site/forum with a global thought, not just for 1 nation so i think i'm in the right place here 😄
My name is Koos Verhoeven, on the net better known as Ruza 😉 , 28 years old and I live in the Netherlands. Have been a lure fisherman for years mainly chasing pike and perch before i discovered a flyfishing rod. Just recently (may 2007) been on fishing holiday in Norway, with 2 friends and a flyrod cruising Southern Norway, a great experience! After that i was hooked on stream fishing. Due to the fact that we have no possibilities for stream fishing for trout in the Netherlands (in fact we have no wild trout in our country :( ) I've been looking for places to go outside of our national borders and so I've found this site. Hope to learn a lot from all of you and if anyone has questions about trout fishing in Belgium or Germany let me know, I can give you some information.

Cheers,
Ruza

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
