Fish Out of Water: short film about teaching vets to fly fish
Permalink  
 

Hi All,

I ran across this short film on hulu.com about fly fishers teaching vets with PTSD and depression to fly fish. Pretty moving stuff:

Hey Vince,

Napa Valley Fly Fishers does exactly that, through "Project Healing Waters", with a group of vets from the Pathway Home at the Veterans home in Yountville. We are always looking for guys to help out with the project. I am teaching the Fly Tying at the moment and as you know I ain't no real tyer so it would be great if maybe we could you get you in sometime to show the guys how it supposed to be done.

Cheers

Alastair
