The Holy Well – Official selection of the 2023 Fly Fishing Film Tour
Directed by: Ben Meadows
Produced by: Dorsal Outdoors
Location: Mexico

Species: Tarpon

For 15 years, a group of friends have battled budgets, bad timing, and bad luck. From weathering hurricanes, to being marooned on an uninhabited island, they’ve seen it all. Well, except for good fishing.
This year they’ve joined forces with a sage of flats fishing, Nick Denbow, who just might have the key to unlock their fishing misery. All signs point to the “Holy Well.”
ABOUT THE FILMMAKER

Stories are the most powerful and meaningful way to communicate with one another. Over the past decade, we at Dorsal Outdoors have crossed jungles, storms, flats, and mountains, with maybe a few fish along the way. But most importantly, we have discovered stories worth sharing. That’s our obsession.

The great stories. Ones that hook you from the start. The narratives that stick with you long after the credits roll.
A harmonious lend of contrasts: relatable and inspiring. Edgy and wholesome. Ambitious and attainable. Those are the stories we’re excited about.
