Feature documentary about the subculture and obsession with fly fishing. The location is the mecca of east coast fly fishing, the Catskills, and it's river systems of reservoirs, rivers, creeks and streams. Through meeting colorful characters, we learn of the history of the sport and the people who played important roles in its development all the way to the modern era.

The drifting waters of the East and the West Branch of the Delaware River meet in the in heart of the village of Hancock in Delaware County. The community was settled shortly before the American Revolution and was founded on the strength of lumbering and rafting along the river. In the mid-19th century, French and German settlers also joined the early transplanted New Englanders who helped to create the town. Funding provided by a grant from Empire State Development.
