Best fishing movie

[VABassin'14]

What is your favorite fishing movie?

I can't just pick one between A river runs through it andThe valley of light. both are a must see if you haven't already done so.

A River Runs Through it! I also enjoyed Bill Engvall's Bait Shop. A little goofy, but the only movie that really has anything to do with tournament fishin'. I thought it was kinda funny.

Jaws

A River Runs Through It

I don't think I've seen any others worth watching again

Jaws.. I love that movie

bait shop  is good

I remember a movie called ..The old man and the sea..

with Spencer Tracy. have not seen it in years

[Sam]

The Old Man and the Sea.

[Sam]

Actually, Jaws is a horror movie. 

[Stringjam]

Actually, Jaws is a horror movie.

I would consider it more of a suspense/thriller action movie than horror. One of my favorite films in life.

Robert Shaw as "Quint" was top shelf. Great actor.

[Fishing Rhino]

The Old Man and the Sea.  Classic.

[KYntucky Warmouth]

Moby Dick

[SirSnookalot]

The Old Man and the Sea. Classic.

You beat me to the word "classic"

Many critics feel Spencer Tracey was the greatest American actor.

Dorf goes Fishing.

Other than a few mentioned I have not really seen a fishing movie other than A River Runs Through it??  I will have to check out the valley of light.  Who is in it and when was it made?

Big Bait Posse

A River Runs Through It

I cant believe no one has said Grumpy Old Men yet...

One of the best fishing scenes is in the Great Outdoors when they fall asleep in the boat and wake up with their leeches all over their arms and faces.  LMAO when I think of them all pointing and screaming at each other..ahahhahahahaha

Really? Have  you seen that movie? I'm not surprised.

A River Runs Through It.

A River Runs Through It.

The most UNREALISTIC fly fishing I've ever seen.  Good movie, but the fishing scenes were pure fantasy, and caused a deluge of nancy-pants wannabes littering the trees in my streams with dry flies, LOL.

The movie was published in 2007, but it was a book before it was a movie. It is directed by Brent Shields, and the main character, Noah, is played by Chris Klein. Its a great movie.

Like the movie Rounders caused a huge surge in the popularity of no limit Texas Hold'em. Of course, amateur poker players who think they're awesome are always welcome. I'm sure it's different with flyfishing :-)

Captains Courageous with Spencer Tracy is my favorite. While I think fly fishermen for the most part are nancy-pants wearing elitists, ;D I liked A River Runs Through It.
