The Fonz himself was on the Wet Fly Swing Podcast recently!
Be sure to listen, because it is definitely interesting. If you don’t know, Henry is a die-hard fly fisherman.
Here is the brief synopsis from Dave at Wet Fly Swing about this podcast with Henry:
“Henry Winkler, an actor, author, producer, and angler, is here to chat about fly fishing, Happy Days, and his incredible life.”
“We find out what it felt like to get offered the movie, Grease and why he turned it down, how he got the role in the HBO show Barry, and how he managed to do great things while being challenged with dyslexia.”
“We dig into his books and movies – how they came to be and the inspiration behind them. And we discover similar truths about fly fishing and acting.”

This video is by Ahrex Hooks:
“Caddisflies are perhaps one of the most important food-sources in freshwater for trout and graylings – both as nymphs and hatched insects. The swarms of insects can be massive and can lure even the most skeptical fish on the fins and inhale them. In this video we have teamed up with the skilled Dutch fly tyer and fly fisherman Jan De Haas, who demonstrates an egg-laying version of a caddis- give it a try.”
Materials list:
Hook: Ahrex FW531, Sedge Dry # 10
Thread: White
Egg: Chartreuse Tying thread
Body: Natural dark grey CDC
Wing: Natural dark grey CDC and natural deer-hair

From Flymen Fishing Company:
“With the new Fish-Skull Articulated Micro-Spine to add a marabou tail, a Nymph-Head Heavy Metal Tungsten Bead to get the fly down quickly, and all new body material, we take this proven and effective old school pattern to the next level.
While the Bluegill Bee has been a long-time favorite for panfish (for good reason, it works!), don’t hesitate to throw this fly for trout as well!”
