    Wow. Another incredible stream Drew! The clear water, the colors and scenery and fabulous mountain Trout. I really appreciate your videos and how you put them together. Yours are so much better than 90% of the other fly fishing stuff on TH-cam. And somehow, despite living out of the back of a truck, you still eat better meals than I do prepared at home in my kitchen! If anyone out there is reading this and have not subscribed, please do so. Drew deserves to have 100K subs.

    Drew, I am a fly fisherman from the mountains of Ecuador South America. I heard many years ago in Colorado (where I learned to fly fish and fly tie) that trout only live in beautiful places. I found that to be true, and you are sharing with us many of those beautiful places where you fly fish for trout. Thank you for that! Those streams look like the ones in the mountains of Ecuador. I am a new subscriber and can't wait to keep watching your videos. Keep up the good work. Tight lines!

      Never, but keep in mind I'm 26+ hours from home. Not really interested in learning a new technique on the road and my local water is tailwaters where the indi rig is great b/c of the constant changing of flows. I'd probably learn it if the right water were closer. Heard it was effective. But the indi rig never disappoints no matter the water or area! Although, I was fishing a dry/dropper in this video.

    Another beautiful piece of this gorgeous state. Thanks. Since you show us the action, I have no sense of whether you feel a need to test a pool before going back in. In our good streams, it’s best to rest a pool 5 minutes every 2 fish to keep hooking big fatties. Did you do any of that? Your fish size stays consistent - and they are cutts, but I wonder if you might have seen more bull and rainbows by resting?

    • @LooknFishy
      @LooknFishy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I do rest the holes while I change depth on my dropper, etc. But since I'm usually just there for one trip, I try to see as much of the stream as possible to get an idea of what it holds. I'll usually fish the best spots again on the way out.

    Drew, I’ve picked up something on your cast that I was hoping you could comment on. It seems like your forward stops on false casts are abrupt hard stops, but on your delivery cast it’s more of a soft stop with drift to deliver the fly. Am I perceiving that correctly? Is that to have a soft landing and not spook fish? Thx

    The largest cutthroat Ive ever hooked came from the next pool upstream on the feeder creek from that first pool. Tried to net it three times, but it kept flopping out, then it spit the hook.
    The largest cutthroat I've ever *seen* was hooked by my friend in the second pool you showed. It broke her off. It might have been a bull, but it took a dry fly, so i dunno.

    I always have a hard time mending line and keeping the fly looking natural and not pulling on it. Any tips to not do that?

    • @LooknFishy
      @LooknFishy  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Make sure you're lifting up and then adjusting the line. A good fly line helps...one that isn't too heavy and lifts off the surface easily...I like textured lines...the golf ball like surface stays high on the water for easy mending and shooting. Last, a good medium action rod helps a ton. Something with some flex in the tip will allow minimum effort to mend...the rod does the work. Stiff rods require a some force to flex which usually means lots of power needed to mend and results in moving the indicator or dry.

      I was using a dry dropper in this video. Walk thru it and the flies from my 2 month trip in another video. A link to it is in the description. I fish indicators a ton, just not much during summer trips out west. I walk thru my 3 favorites and why in this video. th-cam.com/video/OCPU5lZLtY4/w-d-xo.html

    Drew, you are living a life that many out here dream of....but I know there were career decisions, and a lot of sacrifice to make it look so easy. The videos you share take us along with you on your adventure just like we are traveling with an old buddy...cuz real friends don't have to talk and fill up the air all the time. The streams you find are jewels and you're a damn fine fly fisherman. I could go on about the production values and the editing, but just know you are putting out quality better than the majority of poorly made @#$ here @ the Algorithm. Just one more thing...Get yourself a personal GPS locator since you are out there all alone without even a dog to run for help!....We don't want to hear about you on David Paulides' "Canam Missing Project" channel

      Thanks man, definitely rather have a persons respect more than anything else! All I can control is my attitude and effort, so I'll stay positive and keep working to make these videos the best I can! I have a spot plb, my wife pretty much demanded I get one for this summer and planned future trips! Appreciate the good vibes!

    Hey man how do you upload your videos if I never see you in the city. Do you record everything then edit it at home or does your truck have wifi 🤣 seriously ive been wondering this

    • @LooknFishy
      @LooknFishy  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha, I don't have wifi and only do ig or fb on the road. I record everything and share the videos when I get home. This road trip was mid June to mid August...sharing end of July to Dec.

      @LooknFishy  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha, I do when I have something to say, like 2 vids back when I caught the fish that broke me off with my both flies in its mouth. Herm Edwards said it best when talking about celebrations and such..."act like you've been here before"! I dig that attitude!
