DAIWA REBELLION SPIN RODS

By Bradley Sissins

Studio Product - Fishing Rods

Fishing rods are one of the hardest items I do to get perfect. The combination of a slim tubular items with multiple colours, metals, cork or eva etc make it challenging. I began shooting them during film days before digital, my setup still remains the same… a fully custom-made Lightbox. In light...

FLY FISHING IN THE BLIZZARD. MATT TRIPET FROM THE FLY PROGRAM

By Bradley Sissins

No comment

Over the years I’ve owned multiple versions of Nikon’s 85mm lenses like the 1.4D and 1.4G versions, while both were good at their times, new cameras and sensors push the boundaries of what may be classed as a good lens in the past. They’ve always been a popular portrait lens but I find them...

Silicone skirted lures can just be painful to shoot, as someone who is pedantic about getting everything in perfect angles, silicone skirts just don’t play the game. Nothing ever is straight, but one thing is that it’s basically impossible to get them perfect. And here’s the reason… every skirt color or finish (like...

DRAW – ALPINE DEER HUNTING WITH MATT TRIPET

By Bradley Sissins

Uncategorized

No comment

Bow hunting deer is a much more intimate experience that demands more of the hunter in terms of skill, patience and perseverance. Unlike hunting with a gun, success with a bow rides on your ability to capitalize on an opportunity to close the distance and take a well-placed shot. Stealth and camouflage play the...

HIDDEN – STALKING DEER WITH MATT TRIPET

By Bradley Sissins

Uncategorized

No comment

Camouflaged and hidden deep in the sticks on dusk, great for stalking but not ideal to take images. Over the years I’ve owned multiple versions of Nikon’s 20mm lenses like the 2.8D and 1.8G versions, while both were good at their times, new cameras and sensors push the boundaries of what may be classed...

TOP WATER WALKING – HALCO SLIDOG 105 CORAL TROUT

By Bradley Sissins

Studio - Halco

No comment

When I started shooting all the new Halco lures and colours I was asked to feature the new Slidog 105 as a surface walking image. Easy I thought but I didn’t know that it’s a heavy fast sinking stickbait, all the other stickbaits I’ve shot like this are floaters! Creating a floating lure “walking”...

Fly Fishing Preparation in the White Out. Matt Tripet from The Fly Program

Portraits with wide angles are a general no no, but the modern wide angles allow portraits that also convey the landscape that the subject is in. Using a wide angle allows you to capture a landscape view while still focusing on the subject. Over the years I’ve owned multiple versions of Nikon’s 20mm lenses...

Last Light in the Alps. Matt Tripet from The Fly Program

By Bradley Sissins

Uncategorized

No comment

That last moment of light in the Alps can really change the whole mood, one minute it is howling 40 plus knots with horizontal snow and minus temperatures to all of a sudden, a ray of warm light from a sinking sun breaks through, the wind drops for a brief moment and the snow...

DEEP DIVING – HALCO SLIDOG 150 LUMO

By Bradley Sissins

Studio - Halco

No comment

Creating a lure diving into the water is a bit tricky but add a large super heavy stickbait and then it becomes a real change. The Halco Slidog is big and heavy, as soon as it hits the water it moves that quick that it’s easy to miss the shot. A few trial runs...

By Bradley Sissins

STUDIO - DUO INTERNATIONAL

No comment

Ok I love DUO Spearheads and this new one, the Quattro, a four jointed 70mm minnow is just simply one of the best little trout lures I’ve seen in years. Not much else to say but really looking forward to seeing these in action soon in the Snowy Mountains. This was a simple flatlay...
