Here’s an excerpt from a recent review about our GAIA Fly Reel in Fly Fishing Magazine:
Anyone looking to buy a distinctive, small, light reel for a for a #2/3 rod (or even a #4/5 rod) for fishing small brooks and streams for funky little wild brownies will have fun doing it with one of these reels. And who knows how much it might be worth in a few years!
On the 3rd of March (Kungsbacka, Halland) we are delighted to announce that ProFly Sportfiske och Vildmark opens the doors to its new store between 09.00-15.00.
Martin Lindström and Jon Hanson, both with many years experience and education within the sportfishing business, manage the store.
The opening event will have full focus on flyfishing. During the day, various demonstrations will be held by brands carried (Imago, Vision, Eikre Fly), casting shows by Mikael Blomberg as well as wellknown flytiers such as Johan Klingberg, Niklaus Bauer and Frank Hjortberg.
To celebrate the RISE Fly Fishing Film Festival we’re offering 20% off our IPT rods.
We LOVE fly-fishing films, nothing motivates and inspires us more than watching fly-fishing adventures on the big screen. Against our best judgement, to celebrate the RISE Film Festival, we’ve decided to offer 20% off our IPT rods at select retailers until March 31, 2012.
HRH (Switzerland), Capricorn, Jakto, Hökensås Sportfiske, Profly (Sweden), High Mountain Outfitters (US), and Mavungana Fly Fishing (South Africa) are all helping us celebrate. Stop by their websites or stores and get yourself an IPT Rod! Follow our blog, twitter, and/or Facebook for updates on additional retailers.
IPT stands for Imago Performance Tool, although you’ll want to hang our stripped down work of art on your wall – this rod was designed from the perspective of a Trout-Bum lifestyle: Used everyday, all day. Built by our own team and facility in the USA.
We product tested the IPT around the world to make it what it is today, check out our latest video of IPT product testing in the craggy waters of Rock Creek, Montana, USA.

The latest addition to the RISE Fly Fishing Film Festival. Check the schedule of confirmed dates to see a showing near you!
Mavungana Fly Fishing
We are excited to welcome Jonathan Boulton to the Imago Family. Jonathan lives in South Africa and founded Mavungana Flyfishing, a series of fly shops located in Dullstroom and Johannesberg, South Africa.
Shot in Italy, the gang of Fly Fishing Switzerland and flyfisher.ch got together to close down some late season trout fishing. Thanks to Pascal for the edit!
A people film about fly-fishing and work.
What do you do when the current of work grows so strong you start to drown in it? You take off fishing the scenic waterways of Montana where trout, and the people catching them, teach you how to breathe again. Follow the journey of one man’s fishing adventure that takes him across the state of Montana in search of the next fish, fresh perspective and a more fulfilling life — after all, staying afloat in this contemporary world is a challenge.
How do you Breathe?
A Film by: RC Cone
Written by: Zack Wheeler and RC Cone
Presented by: Imago Fly Fishing
Breathe will be on the RISE Fly Fishing Film Festival.
A film documenting the world’s most extraordinary insect hatches and the fantastic fly fishing that accompanies them. The first fly fishing film to be shot on a RED One Camera. A Gin-Clear Media production.
