Real World Fly Fishing Demo Version

The free demo version gives you just a taste of what the full version has to offer. With 8 sites on 4 trout streams, you can try out the casting, check out the graphics, try matching the hatch and more. Compared to the full version the fly selection is limited, and the fishing guide won't provide quite as detailed advice, but the game is fully playable until you catch 20 fish. After that the fish won't bite, but you can still check out the sample fishing sites. Give it a try and if you're having fun fishing 8 sites, imagine having over 475 sites to explore in the Third Edition!

The first time you run the demo it will require you to register on-line. Your activation code will be e-mailed to you automatically. When you register, please let us know where you learned about Real World Fly Fishing.

The demo version is a self-extracting executable file. It will unpack the data it needs (this may take several minutes) and then it will launch an installer.

You're free to share the demo version with others, as long as you share the version provided here with no alterations.

Church Coulee Creek, Wisconsin

Church Coulee Creek is a peaceful meadow stream with brown trout and the occasional brookie. It supports an average population of trout, but gets relatively little fishing pressure. Some pools are much better than others, so take your time exploring all 39 fishing sites. A few spots could produce a real trophy fish.

Deschutes River, Oregon

The Deschutes is a world-class steelhead fishery. This outing takes you fishing near where it flows into the Columbia River in August as the steelhead run is really getting going. There are some smaller trout as well, but the fresh sea-run rainbows are the main attraction. This area has a very high population of rattlesnakes, so watch your step!

Farrbetter Flies

Roger Farr is an artist and fly tier in Englad who has developed some amazingly realistic flies. These are not only incredibly life-like, but also very durable and practical to use. This download adds a sample of his work, including caddis, mayfly and terrestrial dries and a few oustanding nymphs. If you have the Third Edition of Real World Fly Fishing this download will also add a few of Roger's custom materials including mayfly and caddis wings, a caddis nymph case, a foam mayfly body and realistic insect legs.

Allt a' Ghlinne Bhig

This is a spring outing on a wonderful freestone stream in the Highlands of Scotland. There are a fair number of brown trout, and while they don't run particularly large, there's a chance to hook an Atlantic salmon. This early in the year there aren't many salmon present and they're not eager to take a fly, but if you're patient and search the deeper holes you might be in for a real fight. This download adds both the stream and the Atlantic salmon.
