The Drake Magazine hosted their Second Annual Video Awards at the 2007 Fly Fishing Retailer Show in Denver. Focus of the videos? On fly fishing of course. The short clips run the gamut of storytelling - from a father and daughter guide team fishing together in their home waters of Alaska, to fun times in the sun with tarpon and permit. They evoke a few chuckles, appeal to your soft side and may have you chopping at the bit to go after new fish in a new location. Worth checking out. Click here.
