Beyond the Basics & Reading Moving Water
Eventhough I already know how to Fly Fish - this is a great way to take my fly fishing to the next step. I find the DVD easy to navigate through. I particularily liked the segment on releasing fish.

Less talk - more action needed!
Looking at issues beyond the basics, and particularly the skills for reading water, were excellent themes to start from. Unfortunately, this DVD lacks structure and focus. The technical shooting is poor (it does feel like amateur video), and there is way too much unstructured talking. Overall, you feel that the cast when shooting one day and whatever happened that day...

The technical shooting is poor (it does feel like amateur video), and there is way too much unstructured talking. Overall, you feel that the cast when shooting one day and whatever happened that day is what you get on this DVD. Also, the "reading the water" part is certainly not going beyond the basics. It is the basics and nothing more. Overall disappointing.

I have other dvds from this series. The beginning video was a pretty solid introduction to an intimidating subject. I was really hoping that this would build on it and have a similar production value and valuable information.

Disappointed,

With a title like this I was excited to see what this DVD had to offer. This DVD spends a disproportionate amount of time watching the host fight fish! I watched this a second time because I was looking for... more. I actually found myself fast forwarding the fish fighting scenes to try to find some focus relevant to the title. Overall relative material to the title is not "beyond the basics". After watching the video you find yourself wondering if you somehow missed something. The video spends several minutes using white pointer arrows to indicate reading water, while watching the host fight fish is probably around 20 + minutes. Flyfishing DVD's are expensive and hit and miss. If you are truly curious... rent this one.
