<p style="text-align: left;">It's back, and bad-ass as ever. The dream-child of <a href="http://www.headhuntersflyshop.com/" target="_blank">Head Hunters's</a> Mark Raisler, <a href="http://focalfish.com/">FocalFish</a> is "a platform for fly fishing guides to exhibit their photo&rsquo;s on a daily basis." Featuring well-known artists like Brian Grossenbacher side-by-side with talented fishing guides like Rance Rathie, FocalFish is a rare window into the world of fly fishing and guiding. Illustrated by stunning photos and video, it's a fresh, gritty contrast to the all too common flash-filled, photo-shopped grip-and-grin shots that adorn most popular fly fishing media today.</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.slimytrout.com/2011-blog/rss-comments-entry-13718650.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>November 10, 2011 - Horrified.....</title><dc:creator>Steve Hoovler</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 Nov 2011 21:23:15 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.slimytrout.com/2011-blog/2011/11/10/november-10-2011-horrified.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">205124:9176559:13671017</guid><description><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><img src="http://www.slimytrout.com/storage/psu.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1320960300024" alt="" /></span><span class="thumbnail-caption" style="width: 500px;">...
