You go and spend two days on the Niangua River to ring in the New Year with your wife and kids, and while you are away from the Internet, Brian O’ Keefe and Todd Moen do it again by releasing another truly inspiring issue of Catch Magazine.  This online publication is the real deal, when it comes to photography and videography for fly-fishing.

The “El Dorado” video by Todd Moen is what fly-fishing videos are supposed to be.  Well shot, and a great watch.  The feature about shooting in the snow reminded me of some of my favorite black and white shots (taken in the snow), and really had me hoping for a heavy snow fall (something we haven’t seen yet in St. Louis).  Chris Short was the featured “new” photographer in this issue, although he has and does continue to do alot of product shots for FF’ing manufacturers.  His shots are clean and good.  But the feature that stole it for me was that by Brad Harris on fishing Tasmania, there are some great shots there with some serious good lighting.  All in all, another fabulous issue, check it out here.
