A STREAMING SERVICE OF A DIFFERENT SORT AND THE DUBBING TWISTER YOU NEVER KNEW YOU NEEDED
THE SUBSCRIPTION - FISHING TV
So we’re all about the great outdoors and eschewing our digital lives wherever we can in favour of an unplugged world where the kicks come from fly fishing. However, unless we go full Unabomber, it’s impossible to escape the clutches of a modern digital life. Assuming that screens are an inevitable feature in your life, if you are going to fork out for Netflix/Amazon Prime/Showmax etc, why not make space for a subscription you really want? Fishing TV does what the name says, serving up a smorgasbord of fishing content from around the world. While there’s a ton of non-fly fishing content, you’ll most likely find a home in the fly fishing specific channel. Froth at the mouth over Fly Fishing Nation’s epic arapaima flick Gigas, settle in for Rolf Nylinder’s New Zealand saga, Only The River Knows, lose yourself in English trout streams in Chalk, or get deep into the back catalogue of Confluence Films with Providence, Drift and Rise. It’s well-priced at R109.99 per month or R1 049 for the year and you can watch it across the usual spread of devices and applications from Android to Apple, Samsung TV etc. If you have to be at home, you might as well make the most of that couch time, right? fishingtv.com
SMHAEN - DUBBING TWISTER
We love the thinking behind the new Master Dubbing Twister from Danish fly tying tool makers Smhaen. The only dubbing twister we know of that has an integrated dubbing loop control system, it does the basics of a classic dubbing twister, but then goes further. By applying a small amount of pressure with your fingers, you can open and close the built-in pliers. This allows you to easily control your dubbing loop as required, giving you more options with what can be one of the most finickity elements of fly tying. At 28gms and 6,1cm it is suitable for most fly tying applications from small to large flies. smhaen.com
