- Welcome to "FLY FISH AMERICA" presented by Bluff Line Media.
This new series features both short and long-form documentary films sharing anglers’ stories and exploring unique habitats across the Western Hemisphere.
For this episode, we visited the northern most state in the lower 48, Minnesota. Due to its diverse ecosystems and abundance of water, any angler will find ample opportunities for amazing fishing. From tannin-stained streams along the North Shore of Lake Superior to the gin-clear creeks of the bucolic Driftless region, we hope you enjoy this fishy journey across the "Land of 10,000 Lakes".

Wisconsin driftless for sure! wide variety of scenery and fishery for trout.
Beautiful film, thank you for sharing. The world needs more kindness and humility. :)
Too true! Thanks 🙏🏼
Super thanks!! What a great story.
Thanks, James!
It’s great to have Minnesota get some love it doesn’t get nearly enough
We loved it!
Great video, excellent story. I'm familiar with all the areas in this film. Hidden gem.
I am also from Minnetonka! Summers growing up are best like you said. Such cool video and story.
Can't say enough about this video - especially the bit on the North Shore. We spread my mom's ashes at Father Baraga's Cross, my grandpa still lives in Schroeder (and still owns some land on the road down to the Cross), and I spent my life fishing those exact waters. It was excellent to see the attention paid to the logging and development of the Schroeder area. The log dams you talk about were built by my great Grandpa; he and my great grandma actually started the first general store there as well -- eventually that turned into the late Cross River Cafe. There's nothing like the North Shore, and you guys did a great job of capturing so much of it in just a few minutes. Excellent, excellent stuff - and a couple nice brookies up above the barrier too. 99% sure I could send you a pin on Google maps with your exact location in that wider spot in the trees. I caught my first brookie a few hundred yards down river of that spot.
Thanks for sharing, Zach! That area certainly means a lot to many Minnesotans and after my visit, I can see why. What an incredible and interesting place. Appreciate you watching the film!
Unbelievable work guys. Always tell a great story!
Great production. Steve put me on my first trout on the fly rod and I have been obsessed with bluff country ever since. Love the Lanesboro shop.
That’s awesome! It’s such a beautiful area.
Another great video. 6 years ago me and a friend did a recon fly fishing mission to the Wisconsin Driftless. Now we make the drive every year in September. Just like the Ozarks it truly a magical place.
It reminded me a lot of the Ozarks, but still a very unique place with tons of beautiful fish. Thanks!
This video brings back great memories of my father taking me fishing on the North Shore of Lake Superior. We met nice people, Addie and Pete Sorlie at Paradise Beach that show us where to catch those beautiful brookies. I was tying Herters patterns like the balloon streamer and a cork topped parachute to catch unforgettable beauties on. Great video I hope I get the chance to fish Minnesota again.
This was my first visit to the North Shore and we were blown away! We’ll definitely be back.
New to fly fishing and tying. I have been reading some Virgil Flowers books and it is nice to see where he fishes. Going to have to visit. Old Chief in Texas
Sounds great! Good luck!
I think I need to make the 6 hour drive this year and fish there.
Yes, you do! Just not right now. 🥶
That Is a very incredible story! love hearing about these kinds of things! thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching, sir!
Nice video. Kudos to Nick, tireless worker on the North Shore.
Indeed! Thanks for watching.
Awesome movie thanks for highlighting such a great place to fish.
Thanks for watching, Brent!
Truly miss Steve. Thanks for the video.
As always. Amazing content. I'm always so excited to see new videos from bluff line.
More to come, my friend!
this is such a awesome video!!! Will definitely be visiting this summer with the ol lady!!
Have fun! Thanks for watching.
Beautiful! Reignited my desire to get back out with a fly rod. Haven’t fly fished since I was a kid. Great work! And can you help me with the music at 14:50??
Glad you liked it! The music is Cosmic Guilt’s.
Thanks for the film!
Wow!! Thanks so much, Jake!
Love your content! As a Local in MN, I used to run a route through South East MN, and it never disappoints with the scenery.
Glad you enjoy it! It’s an amazing place for sure!
Those are some stout smallies! Great film.
Yes they are! Thanks for watching!
“Slow motion: The Movie”
Hey! I resent that. I only use slow motion 89% of the time! 😂
Awesome video guys! The north shore is an amazing place to fish and live 🤙
Yes it is! Thanks!
great video guys. I spent time in Minnesota when I was a kid, and fished every second I could. so sorry for your dad, my dad died of cancer too, so I know how it feels. happens so fast
Thanks for the support and take care, sir!
Excelent!
Love this.
Thanks!
Where you are standing at 28:10. I caught a 30 inch 10 lb kype jaw male that was painted by Bob Ross himself back in 2008 at that spot. Only fish we caught that day. Things have changed in SE MN over the last twenty to 35 years. I recognize a bunch of the iconic spots you visited on the north shore, it's really cool to see others enjoying the places I once explored. I've since moved to Montana to pursue flyfishing dreams, and it's been as advertised. That said there's things in Minnesota you can't get here, the smell of the black soil in the forest, big fat morels by the pound, more spring creeks in striking distance, and of course the lesser known water that rivals anything it's size in the mountains. I miss a nice easy riffle, run, pool, walk. I like that you're doing what you're doing down there on the root river, and I wish you the best.
You’re more than welcome to wax poetic in my comment section anytime sir! Well said. Thanks for watching!
Wonderful work yet again. Congrats brother!! 🤙🤙
Thank you, homie bro!

Excellent video! accustomed to the trout fishing in the Rocky Mountains of New Mexico/Colorado, I would like to visit your shop when I get the opportunity and to fish in that area of Minnesota . I currently live and work in the Twin Cities and will pay you a visit. Condolences to the family,just recently lost my brother-in-law to cancer as well.🙏
Thank you for your support, Chuckie! You’ll love the crew at RRRCo. Take care!
Question, was that area historical Atlantic salmon and grayling range?

West Texas would be cool
Theo Hamm's finest.
