Welcome!

This website is divided into two parts. The first deals with various aspects of fly fishing. Trapper Badovinac is a long time fly fishing guide, outdoor writer, author, lecturer and commercial photographer. He's penned two books, written articles for numerous magazines and presented to many fly fishing clubs. His photos are available to publishers, and from time to time, the general public.

The second part deals with graphic design. Shooting Star Publication's designers designed both of the above books as well as countless other books, brochures and display ads. Click here for more information.
