IF4 - 2026
Our screening of IF4 last October was such a massive hit that we've decided to do it again this year. The International Fly Fishing Film Festival (IF4) returns with a curated collection of world-class films spanning conservation, family, adventure and culture, including a standout short featuring prominent American chef and cultural storyteller David Chang chasing permit in Mexico.
