The Take is Loop’s magazine — no need to introduce these guys, they’re basically the big-fish specialists, the ones who’re all about migratory fish and the big flies they can’t resist. Treat yourself and dive in! In this issue, there’s Eoin Fairgrieve, the guy who designs and builds absolutely insane rods — powerful but light as hell! The article you’ll probably relate to most is the one on fishing the Catskills, just a stone’s throw from NYC. But there’s also this fly that drives trout crazy all summer long, plus a piece on how we can protect salmon. And there’s more where that came from — you’re not done reading yet!

But the one that really caught our eye is Christiaan Pretorius’s article on how to catch Permit on dry flies in Xcalak, Mexico!
Alright, go find yourself a shady spot and enjoy the read!
