DENVER (February 14, 2024) – Exclusively on World Fishing Network, join Fly Fusion magazine Founding Editor, Derek Bird, for season four of the Fly Fusion Series, debuting at 9 p.m. ET on February 16. Tune in as Bird casts his line into the heart of North America's most breathtaking locales, weaving a narrative that captures the essence of fly fishing through captivating storytelling and stunning cinematography.

This season, presented by Scientific Anglers, Skwala, St. Croix and Yeti, Bird is joined by acclaimed writer and conservationist Kirk Deeter, along with respected writer and guide Paul Bruun, pro angler and guide Paula Shearer, angling legend Mike Dawes, Master Casting Instructor and Fly Fusion Field Editor Jeff Wagner, and former Director of Fish & Wildlife, John F. Turner. Altogether, they’ll explore the trout waters of Wyoming and Idaho. As if that wasn’t enough, Bird asked legendary television and film Producer, RA Beattie, of Beattie Outdoor Productions, to add his cinematic magic to the mix.

“If you’ve joined us over the last three seasons you’ve experienced some epic western Canadian fly-fishing adventures. If you’re new to Fly Fusion, this season we’re going to start off on my home waters in the Kootenays. Then, we’re going to travel south to explore the streams of the famed American west. I invite you to join me on a journey of learning and discovery, where I meet up with some of North America’s most knowledgeable fly anglers, along the banks of some of North America’s most iconic trout rivers,” shared Derek Bird, Fly Fusion Editor and Host.

Plus, don’t miss the Fly Fusion Trout Tour, in association with the Fly Fusion Series and the International Fly Fishing Film Festival. This is a well-formed excuse to get together with fly-fishing friends while watching an epic collection of trouty films from Gilbert Rowley, Phil Tuttle, The Braker Bros, Todd Moen, RA Beattie and Fly Fusion Films. Premiering in Sundance on March 15, the films will make their way around the American and Canadian West. Limited cities, limited tickets and monster trout.
