Tying a popper fly
Catching a fish on a popper is great fun and everyone should try it once.
But before you can fish a popper you need to tie or buy your poppers.
Here is a simple and efficient pattern.

About a year ago we visited Vincent and Céline from Coyolles Fly Fishing, as they invited us to join them for the Rise Film festival.
Wether one can call 4 years a tradition or not, targeting Dutch pike at the Polders has become a yearly thing for us at Rodtrip.

In May 2016, we went back in Ireland for the second time.
We spent a week at Castlehamilton and fished most of the time small lakes with our float tubes.

The second edition of the Pike Challenge is now over, we expected really tough fishing but our really brave and skilled competitors did the job !
We were really pleased to see the enthusiasm around this contest, we opened the registration last Friday and it was already full after about 50 minutes… that’s just crazy !
We are super excited to announce the second edition of the Rodtrip Pike Challenge.
Two years have passed since the last time we went to France to fish the gorgeous zebra trouts of the Albarine.
The call of the clear water river was so strong that last Wednesday, we decided, Mathias and me, to go meet her again.

At the end of May we visited the Fly Fair in Holland.
This year it was being held at a brand new location, namely the trout fishery Berenkuil in Putten.
Last year we went to Castle Hamilton (see our video bellow), to check out if pike fishing in Ireland is as good as they say.
We went, we saw, and we had some serious fun.
Our Rodtrip team really enjoys an adventure which can be done by any flyfisher, young or old, on a budget or not.
Like every year in March, trout fishing starts. We are always very excited to go back to the river and to catch our first fish on the fly.
