About this project
My good friend Aaron Jasper and I started a fly fishing forum about three years ago. A place for some friends to talk at first has turned into a robust community. With over 1500 members and over 38,000 absolute unique viewers in the last year, Trout Predator Online has become one of the most active and robust online fly fishing communities. We want to take things to the next level, but it's hard considering we fund every venture on our own and it's hard to scratch together the cash. We have produced over 70 short instructional and adventure videos over the last couple years as a team, and in the next year we would like to release two or three full length videos.
What does taking things to the next level mean?
1. Raise funds to buy video equipment, editing equipment, and editing software.
2. Raise funds to press and distribute our two full length films.
3. Using these films to raise awareness about protecting our precious rivers.
We believe we can provide even more information to the Fly Fishing and conservation community if we could just scrape together the cash to do things right. With four full time jobs between the two of us, it's difficult for Aaron and I to do this alone and that's why we need your help.
We have done our best to provide you with good info and invested hundreds of hours of our time on the stream, editing, and maintaining our community. Dig deep and do whatever you can to help grow the community and bring awareness to our precious rivers that need protecting.
