The results are in for the 2014 Gink and Gasoline Fly Fishing Photography Contest.
Clearly, our readers stayed busy with both fly rods and cameras in 2013. We had so many amazing entries this year. I am so glad that I did not have the difficult job of judging all of this great work. You guys rock!
And the winners are!
1st place goes to Reuben Browning
For this amazing photo of a free swimming rainbow trout. Great work Reuben! Enjoy that new Echo 590-4 fly rod, you’ve earned it!
Second place goes to Joel Dickey
For this beautiful underwater view of the silver king. Joel gets the awesome Fishpond boat bag.
Third place goes to Stu Hastie
For the Double Rainbow. Stu finished first last year and that MFC reel was his prize. Nice work Stu! You’ll be casting like a pro with your new RIO Perception fly line!
I’d like to thank Echo, Fishpond and RIO for their generous support of the G&G 2014 Fly Fishing Photography contest. Without your help it could not happen.
Most of all, I’d like to thank everyone who submitted photos! You guys continue to blow me away with your talent and passion for fly fishing. Keep up the great work and we’ll see what you’ve been up to in 2015!
Come fish with us in the Bahamas!

Wow all of those photos are really cool. But I have to say, you got the winner right. Reuben’s is one of the coolest photos that I’ve ever seen. A lot of things have to go right to get a shot like that! Kudos to everyone!
How about a guest post from each of the 3 winners detailing how they took the photos?
Thanks for all the comments folks. Yeah, I’m keen to share the story behind that shot of mine sometime. Like all of you, I’d love to hear the story behind Reuben’s shot. Such a beautiful sharp image, so cool, and I’d love to know how Joel’s shot was lit. Beautiful light!
Beautiful work all!
That has got to be one of the most impressive photos I have seen of the free swimming Rainbow! All are very good and the photographers should all be proud! Great job fellows! God bless
Awesome shots and congratulations!
Joel “Big Nasty” Dickey has an eye for the glass lens. Always good stuff and excellent guide. P.S. I pulled the “Big Nasty” out of my butt. Hes not really called that. Or is he? Haha! Take care fellers and awesome submissions…
Nice photos. I love that tarpon shot!
well done. awesome job to all the photographers who entered~
Wonderful photography and artistry. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, that 1st place photo is very impressive.
Louis, will you be able to provide a link for everyone to view all submissions like you did on the facebook page last year?
Can you convince Reuben to make a poster of that photo? If so, my order is in. Really beautiful, capturing both the trout an its environment in a unique way.
Love the winning shot. Can I buy a print to hang on the wall here at the Nautilus Reels World Domination Headquarters?
Just crazy talent, great job guys!
great photo you made the right choice. Thumbs up! Hope you can teach me how to do that in the Bahamas.
Those pictures are unbelievable. Great job!
