jdangler Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 Gotta have, Thanks for the heads up. If any thing like the first, with the addition of fish being caught, it should be great. Quote
headscan Posted June 14, 2010 Author Posted June 14, 2010 From this blog post it sounds like more focus on technique for various scenarios, which should be interesting. That was the one thing I wished the first one had more of. Quote

dutchie Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 thats going to be a great early xmas gift for me , just coming out in time ''Sept ''to really get one pumped befor heading out chasing them steelhead in the skeena again and did you see that reel , ''hardy bougle '' with the click an pawl , she was screaming , almost as good as a 30's perfect for sound , dame that was just to short , what a tease it is Quote
BBBrownie Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 cant wait! Looks like a good one, that chrome really gets my heart beating, september is coming! If there is some scenario specific technique in this one it should be good to pick up where part one left off...sure nice to see that this volume includes steel! Quote
BBBrownie Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 just read an article written by Scott Howell, apparently they included some footage of swinging and twitching steelhead poppers on the video. I am not sure if anyone has seen the clip of one of his guides fishing this style for steelhead on the N.Umpqua on his website, but it sure is a sweet clip, not sure whether the steelhead smashing the popper or the guys casting abilities are more impressive!

Brookie2 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Just got mine in the mail today....anybody seen it yet? Your thoughts? Quote
headscan Posted March 5, 2011 Author Posted March 5, 2011 Thought it was great. It was nice to see the actual techniques instead of casting since there are already so many videos covering that. Seeing how he works his way through the run was interesting. I thought the best part was seeing him swing without a take for a while and lose a bunch of fish since that's more realistic than a lot of the other videos out there. Quote
Brookie2 Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Just watched it, enjoyed the video...lots of good stuff in there. Just too much Sage propaganda though! Quote
headscan Posted March 14, 2011 Author Posted March 14, 2011 Just too much Sage propaganda though! The way I look at it is the DVD probably would've cost twice as much or never gotten made without that paid propaganda. It didn't bother me much, but then again I've been known to fish a few Sage rods Quote
Brookie2 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 LOL, I figured I'd get a response back. Just stirring the pot! Quote
SouthBow Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Funny part was when he covers up his guide company decal on the side of his sled. lol Quote

As I see it when you get video's that have a second video follow up the first is always a instructional video and the next couple then get away from the instructions. Look at hendrick's video's the first two were most instructional then anything, then it went into teachnique and fishin. Also I haven't watched many video's but is this Ed's first video, if so I can totally see why it was more instructional then anything else. Anyways for me I thought the first Skagit master was awsome (i'm a firm beliver that you can learn something from everyone, some people explain things diffrently that makes it eaiser for other, to think you have already seen everything is a little bit .........) Haven't watched the second one yet but plan on soon. Can't wait to see the next two that they are advertising on their web site (I belive they are in filming right now.) One last thing, with the sponsor advertising, I agree with Marc on this, if it wasn't for them then I highly doubt the film would of been made, and the compaines that ponny up the dollers deserves some advertising. Who remebers the first trout bumb video I mean the sponser advertising was absoultly crazy, even though I enjoy fishin the product I found it to be overwelming at times. Quote
