I don't have any major fly fishing plans down here in Mississippi this weekend due to the fact that I am participating in an epic 2-day Harry Potter movie marathon. Harry Potter is one of the few things that can tear me away from fishing. The combination of magic and fly fishing brought a couple things to mind that I'd like to share:
1. Apparently Emma Watson likes fly fishing. According to her wikipedia page, she supports the Wild Trout Trust, which I believe is the British version of Trout Unlimited. Also, she ties her own flies. In case you need more proof, here's one more. I just wish I could have found some pictures...
2. Casting a Spell, The Bamboo Fly Rod and the American Pursuit of Perfection - George Black. This is a good book on the history of bamboo rod making in the U.S. I can't see myself dropping $1k on a bamboo rod any time soon, but interesting nonetheless.
