Travels with Charlie: A kids Fly Fishing journey to British Columbia by Todd Moen

- I'd like to introduce my son Charlie, in this very special film “Travels with Charlie: In search of B.C. Coho salmon.” My eleven year-old Charlie Moen makes his debut on film with a trip into British Columbia’s Great Bear Rainforest in search of Coho salmon on the fly. Born into fly fishing, this young boy finds big fish on the rivers feeding Kimsquit Bay. Led by Jeff Hickman, guide and owner of Fish the Swing and Kimsquit Bay Lodge, Charlie finds classic high-action hookups, gorgeous aerial shots and plenty of chrome.
“Travels with Charlie” is an uplifting story of a boy’s perspective on fishing and working with his filmmaking father in a coming-of-age adventure. Orcas and whales, eagles and bears…this is the quintessential B.C. It captivates even the seasoned angler with its reminder of humble and exciting beginnings into the sport of fly fishing. With much pride and a whole lot of nostalgia, we present to you a very special film starring the next generation of Catch Magazine.

Moen’s footage is always so enjoyable. I hope he is paid better than most in the industry as his work deserves it. Everyone already knows this but I just wanted to say I enjoy his work . Thanks
That shot of him getting an *almost* lip piercing and laughing was amazing! Love how he responded in joy from that!! Great film!
Congratulations boy! Be happy for fishing and for having a great and generous father!😃👏👏👏👏
World class quality filming every time!
You are absolutely right!
Thanks for the movie, everything is wonderful. I'm waiting for other expeditions
Thank you!
How awesome
Way to go father and son. I have fished with my now 34 year-old daughter since her very early childhood and count every day spent on the water with her a precious gift. You really brought back some special memories. Thank you.
Thank you Tim. So great you have been able to share this passion with your daughter. Glad this brought back some good memories!!!!
That’s awesome, Tim. I wish I had done the same.
Oh well, I have nothing but regrets now…
Wonderfull film ! With my 11 years old son, we fishing seabass and trout in britain in France. Beautifull moments between a father and his son. Many thanks for yours videos.
Thank you very much!!!
I love this a kid Is fly fishing I wish my would fallow me continue bud again congrats
Thanks Bobby!
4:36 lots of spawning salmon. Great content, lucky kid!!
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video.... my dream be on the river with my Edorardo and Federico 8 and 6 years old.
Thank you for sharing with us yours emotions .
Wow what a terrific piece Todd! Reminds me of earlier days when my dad taught me everything he knew about fly fishing. Thank you for bringing back memories🙌🏼
Thank you!
Great moment captured there but I sure hope this was sponsored because that looks like one heck of an expensive trip. Keep that kid busy and make him work and hustle on his own stuff so he doesn't take it all for granted!
Nice. 👍👍👍👍🙏
One of my favorites to date. Some of the emotions displayed; unbelievable. That hook to the lip was cinematic gold.
Congrats Todd
Thanks so much Tony. I love how you described that. It’s just perfect cinematic gold. Will never happen again like that. Lucky I was there at that moment to capture it as tight as I could. Charlie was so tired at that point he was using both hands to cast the single hand rod. Haha
Amazing 😍🔥🔥
Hello young lad. Im 60 year old, and from Denmark. I have never catch a salmon in my life. But when i se You and Your happines, when You are fishing, I'w let me be inspiret. So now i will planen buy gear and find out where i can catch my first salmon. So tank You, for Your video. It is not too latent, to Lean to fish :-)
On one hand I want to see more of this kid crushing it... but on the other, I'm scared he's already putting me to shame with a fly rod.
Hahaha! I love it! Thank you!
What an absolute joy to watch. Thank you both for making and sharing this video. To say it warmed my heart is an understatement. Bravo to Charlie and Dad! Here’s to more travels with Charlie👏🏻
Really appreciate this Aaron. Thank you for your support and taking the time to watch.
So sick
I am 16 here.
Have never been to BC, but Fly Fishing has been the main way me and my father bond.
It is nice to see others experience the same thing.
Right on. Thanks so much for sharing this. Glad you are having great experiences with your dad on the water. Thanks for watching!!

Ohh Boy love it >>> Bc And salmon Bring-it-on** Tc Uk Cheers Todd
Hi Tony! Hope all is well. Thanks for watching!
I thought you changed the title to this charlie's fly fishing trip, but how come it's cooler 👍
8.20 That's why you ALWAYS wear eye protection.!!!!
I wanna be that kid - his dads occupation must be something like CEO in Silicon Valley or similar...LOL Quality filming though!
Don't want to see the Ole Timers anymore. Redo all your videos with Charlie, your new star 🌟!!!
I kinda agree! Thanks for this comment!!!!
Great video. Can you just tell me, what song is in 3:03-5:12? It's absolutely amazing!!
Way to go Young Charlie - landing fish that weigh almost as much as you. as they say - your future is so bright - you have to wear shades (in this case - Polarized shades LOL )
Amazing. First Lesson: always bow to a jumping fish 😎🤙))
Great video! BTW, those two killer whales are T69E and T69F.
You did A-OK in this job?
Boy you kicking but many adult men (including me)
Fantastic work young man! And what a setting to cast a line, also your bottom lip lives to see another day.
This is soooo beautiful! Enjoy that connection with your son! Few people are that blessed!
Fantastic stuff kid! As a fly fisherman myself, I'm envious of you. You're only 11 and you're doing things I wish I could but probably won't ever get the chance to. Be thankful for what you have. Great job dad!
Thanks. Thing about Charlie is that he gets it that fishing might not ever be this good ever again. He’s seen me come home from work trips far to often saying the fishing was super tough.
Best clip ever. My son is only three but hopefully I can show fly fishing soon.
Did outstanding young man pleasure to watch talented new blood coming into the fly fishing game with best camera man in fly-fishing business looking forward to seeing more of you .
This is such a awesome video only what I can hope to be like one day with my child in the future
Superbe vidéo , quelle chance vous avez de pouvoir fréquenter une nature si belle...
So awesome se a kid doing like a pro whit those big fish on fly awesome job
Man little man hook himself...much respect
Que lindo!!! Saludos de Argentina
crazy how the memories came back to me about my fishing at that age with my dad. Didn't matter that I was catching brookies in the colorado high country instead of big cohos. The experience with my dad at that age is irreplaceable. i enjoyed this video as much as any as it brought those memories back so vividly. Great job!!
Thank you Kevin!
Birth of a new Trout Bum!!! All extra money, and then some, will forever be spent on new equipment, airfare, lodging and guides. What could be better?
Haha! Well, hope not!
Flying Fishing is something of beauty,
I wish I started flyfishing at a young age
Love it man!
Just curious do you know if that river Holds Steelhead? Cutthroat Trout ?or Dolly Vardens - Bull Trout ?
We have no idea! Haha
Men are not just "born"; they are "made," by experiences like this. You've got to love to see a father take the time to "make a man."
This is great. Thanks so much for that. I totally a agree with you.
Next generation. Wish I had started at a young age.
Yes, these younger kids getting to fish a bunch before they are teenagers are very lucky. Thanks for watching!!!!
...
I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on
But take your time, think a lot
Think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not
...

Father and son on a really thrilling fly fishing trip adventure.
You did a good job boy!
I really enjoyed watching this fly fishing trip. Like father like son. Stay positive! You are great! Congrats🙏😁
Thanks so much! I love this!
@@CatchMagazine
I appreciate that😊👍
I wish I could give 2 thumbs up
В этой реке и на поплавок поймаешь лосося. Я не пойму,в чём приоритет нахлыстовой снасти перед поплавочной удочкой? Хорошая инерционная катушка обеспечит дальний заброс и плавную проводку мушки.
Это просто другая игра. На многих реках ловят только нахлыстом. Я согласен с вами, хотя поплавочная удочка просто забьет их.
As a local I must say this represents BC fishing beautifully. Great story and great fishing. My five-year old and I thoroughly enjoyed watching this- bringing up many memories on the Dean.
Thanks Matthew, glad you and your son enjoyed this one!!! Thanks for the message.
I absolutely love this and the kid did put on a clinic!
Thanks Mark!!! I agree!
Very nice video...pretty good...greatings from germany
Thanks for watching!!!
А в России сетями вылавилибы всего лосеся
The look on his face when he hooked that coho from the log is awesome! Taking my nephews fishing with me the last few years has been one of the best experiences of my life. Passing it down to the next generation is what it is all about and seeing the passion in their eyes is priceless!
Thanks. Yes, that facial expression is just unbelievable. I think most kids would would have that same reaction. I guess I was just so lucky I was zoomed in and tight on Charlie to capture it all that way. I really can't believe that all happened!
Very useful fishing lesson sir... I like it.... Good luck...
Awesome and epic!
It is always wonderful to see a kid doing fly fishing. Cograts Tood, your heart must be happy to share helluva experience along with your son.
Thank Pablo! Really appreciate it. Yes, I’m a super happy dad! Just happy for Charlie it all came together.
Hickman is the man, good job Charlie.
Was a good week. Thanks for watching!!!
One of the best things I’ve seen on TH-cam in a long time. Thanks for this.
Thanks Zach! Really appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
I like fishing
Well done lad
Wow, breathtaking. Awesome catches
Thank you. Appreciate it!!!
Please please a vague idea of where this is.
Check the credits or video description.👍
very nice! Sounds like Charlie, and Kasix Sherman, need to connect? Tight lines.
Outstanding in so many ways, thank you and well done!
Great video!
It also made me decide I will have to go stay and fish at Kimsquit lodge as soon as we can fly from Australia again.
Well Charlie from an OLD youngster to a new one ...keep your nose in the wind..dont miss one detail on any adventure...and always enjoy the moment...great work Charlie
Only Wow, this son never forget this trip and will his hole life addicted in fly fishing. Concrats!
what a nice young lad, his fish handling was awesome
Go forth and conquer young blood. You are the future!!
That’s awesome! Thanks for this!
Thats the future of the sport! Great captureand story!
Thank you so much!
There is nothing finer that steelheading with my boys 10 and 13. Seeing their Spey casts improve with each trip. Great memories and more to come! We haven’t seen that many fish on the Clearwater this year though. I still wouldn’t trade it for anything.
realy realy nice videó.
4:33 - was that a fish that you see between them near the weeds in the water?
Yes. Good eye! Those were chum salmon along the edge.
Mazing 👍🏻
Incredible movie.
Awesome 🤩 congratulations on some beautiful fish 👍🏻
Very nice👍
Good..
I thinking this might be Toms most favorite video he’s ever made to date🤗😎🇺🇸
Doesn't get any better than this. Enjoyed the film thoroughly.
Awesome. I was always blessed to have a father that took me salmon fishing
Very cool. You are a lucky guy! I wish my dad would have taken me salmon fishing as a kid.
Wow, another amazing video!
Thanks!!!
Very nice to see a young man having a great time in the outdoors and not in front of a TV playing a game
Tip of cap to you young man. Life long addict now welcome to the group!
Well done young man! I wish I had your age when I started fly fishing. Cherish the moment, let it sink in really good and enjoy the ride, son.
Legendary!!
Thanks Spawn!
Amazing video!!!!!
Young lucky guy. A good father = a happy child. :)
Top shelf fishing videos!
Thanks Mike!
I REALLY ENJOYED YOUR VIDEO, MY EX SON IN LAW RUINED MY GRANDSON ON FLY FLY FISHING.. HUGE PRESSURE-VERY COMPETITIVE , JUST SOURED HIM ON IT, WOULD REALLY LOVE TO GET HIM EXCITED ABOUT IT. ANY THOUGHTS ON HOW I COULD SWAY HIM? i KNOW HE WOULD ENJOY IT IF I COULD TALK HIM BACK TO TRY. VERY JEALOUS GRANDPA
SUPER!!!!!! 💪😎👈
To keep up the interest for fishing I guess it's easier to do so in a salmon river in BC. In Sweden or Norway, when it's atlantic Salmon, it can take a week or so to get the first bite.......... :-)
That was awesome
