You keep repeating - excellence. From serious history to joyous fishing ... the story, videography, photography, editing and production - and the music! So, so good! Cliffhanger too - I feel like the next episode gonna see some Apache Trout action. I'm smiling big while pondering how to help our great trout waters ... I'm glad you offered your Patreon option to help support your incredible work. Thanks for doing what you do.
Now THIS is a film worth making and watching. The care and pacing and wealth of historic information - the parallel slow activities of traveling, hiking, researching, scouting and then rendering an image of the fish is so rewarding. Thank you for this!
that's my area, near the Navajo and white mountain apache reservations! I caught a baby Apache trout there! my favorite episode so far, because its close to home for me!
as an Arizona native i understand why we threw caution to the wind and just started adding in Brown Trout all over the place. Despite all the water in the mountains it's still not super fishy country. People were just excited about fishing and wanted to see more of them in their fisheries. It's a bkessing and a curse how dang resiliant Brown Trout are. I'm stoked we learned from some of our mistakes before it was too late and are trying to bring the native species back.

@@robertmabry4172 is that above or below the lake? I’ve been to Cabresto lake and I’ve caught a few cutthroats. I’ve also fished the creek above the lake but not very far in.
Your guys' work is pure genius! I love the cinematography, narration and most importantly, mission! Your work is better than anything by corporate documentary makers. I will be subscribing on patreon.
Great storytelling, and editing. I learned a lot. I did a story in West Texas back in 1997 and went searching for the Pecos near Ft. Stockton. It was a trickle then; I walked over it without having to take a bigger step.
Wow! Such beautiful filming/editing and storytelling. Most importantly is the undercurrent of conservation in your series, truly inspiring work! Makes one want to get out and see these truly special native species and help do everything we can to spread the word and help protect them! Thank you !
You guys should seriously look into the Aurora Trout, only residing in 12 lakes in Northeastern Ontario, Canada, very rare and very difficult to catch !
Man this series just has personality out the ass. Ppl always give me looks when I tell them I don’t have Netflix or Hulu and I think “ya cause this shit ☝🏼 is way better”
Ive always loved and appreciated original filming perspectives.. I am newish to youtube land as well as adventure/ fishing content. Fishing has been my passion for as long as I can remember and it has been a true blessing to come across you and your wifes work. Hands down the best out there. You guys are completely well rounded. It is a privilege being able to see your work. So much so ive introduced my 13 yr old boy to you guys and hes hooked as bad as me haha. Thanks for everything !!!!
Will the Bull trout be the finale? Don't tell me, just so excited for these episodes. All of my friends are enjoying these when I share them. I can't wait to see the illustration of the Bull either. Great stuff!!!
Ha! I wish I could say it was to prove a point, but in reality is just because we’re poor. But seriously, I’d you take the time to really search through the audio library there’s some really good stuff in there!
Another awesome educational film! I am sorry you weren’t able to catch an Apache Trout. I’m actually from the reservation. Know the area well that you fished and in the future if you want to film again, I would be willing to point y’all to some local spots. Safe travels thank you for the videos and Tight Lines! 🤙🏼
Thanks, Kit! We actually caught a ton when we return in the next episode! Tune in this Sunday to see it ;) but we’ll still take you up on that offer next time we’re in town
Thank you for educating AZ:) I'm an Arizonian and happened to spot your Van in Taylor around then haha. Loving your videos! Keep up the good work, and I wish you safe travels. Tight lines🔥🔥
Thanks! We shot this video back in 2020 and the primary camera was an a7iii, we now shoot with an a7siii We also have a larger cinecam called an FS700 that is used for a lot of the slo motion stuff you see
What region of the forest did you fish in? I’m moving within driving distance of Carson National forest and planning on making a few weekend outings over the next few months. Where did you research where to fish? Any information helps!
It was very interesting that the largest threat to most of these species was staring us right in the face during the video. Those dense forests are an artifact of the lack of the natural fire regime or ecological thinning that both maintains a healthier forest as well as healthy streams and aquifers. The current overstocked forest condition increases water use via evapotranspiration from the trees as well as preventing deeper snow drifts that melt more slowly and put more water into the surface aquifer that maintains health streams through summer. As described in the video, we see a more flashy short run off period that wastes potentially stored water. Much of this issue has been caused by meddling in the science instead of allowing the sciences of forest , fire, and watershed ecology to dictate. In the end, we get what we vote for. On the plus side, a watershed can return to health in just a year or two after thinning. Streams that were intermittent can become perennial almost "over night". It is an amazing phenomenon to witness.
Not sure the video mentioned it, but cutthroat trout have been around for more than three-million years in the interior west. Apache trout are descendants of the Mexican gold trout which is a younger species.
Hi, unfortunately, the Apache Trout Original is already sold. We do have our latest films Original Baja California Rainbow Trout available on our website : tightloopsfly.com/store/baja-california-rainbow-trout-original-painting
Yes! But it’s not a cutthroat. The Rio Grande cutthroat is the southern most distribution of cutthroat trout. As far as trout in general, there are native trout way down in Mexico!
Have you corresponded with Ted Williams, the conservation writer? I remember him doing a series on endangered trout many years ago and the lack of support from the state game agencies.

Worth the wait. thank you!
I'd say that Tight Loops are in a league of their own in fly fishing when it comes to the standard of visuals, story telling and editing.
My Favorite Cutt! This has been long awaited!
Yesssiiirrr!
Thank you for all you do and teach us. The work you put in to these videos is amazing.
Always a good day when Tight Loops posts
It was worth the wait!
Another amazing film. Thanks for filling the void after the Mak and Owen's series ended last week.
Ha! No doubt. Big void to fill for sure. We’re with them right now!
Wonderful. Simply wonderful 😍
Thank you for a thoughtful and beautiful film. Cheers Torben, Denmark

Another wonderfully crafted episode. Thank you for shedding some light on these wonderful (and endangered) trout.
Ahhhh this was so worth the wait. Glad you’re feeling better Chase. Can’t wait for the rest (although clearly I will). Cute lil cutties.
Finally! So happy to see you and Amy back on the tube. Well worth the wait, but let's not make it a habit eh? All the best to you both.
I would definitely purchase some of your art work there beautiful!
It's been forever but man! I still can't enough of your guys work! You guys truly give production level to aim for! Amazing as always!
That creek you fished in NM is loaded with wild rio grande's even in the lower sections. Such a fun place to fish.
What creek is this?
@@justinmartinez9692 cabresto creek.
@@robertmabry4172 is that above or below the lake? I’ve been to Cabresto lake and I’ve caught a few cutthroats. I’ve also fished the creek above the lake but not very far in.
@@justinmartinez9692 it's in the creek upstream from cabresto lake.
Wow! Love this!

The production on all of these is so great. I love the style. I don't know why this doesn't have a larger audience.
First time I ever heard of Apache Trail, pretty amazing beautiful fish
Awesome as usual, keep up the great work 👍

Wow… just wow
Awesome work y’all! Incredible country! A very special fish that is under appreciated forsure.
Fantastic video. You two are truly great.
Incredible work as always! Love what you guys do! You inspire me to become a better filmmaker and adventurer.
Another great video! Thanks guys for all your hard work and dedication to saving one of our most underappreciated natural beauties the Cutthroat.
Keep up the great work!
We love the amount of effort you put into each cut! Keep up the hard work, it really shows!

Just wonderful! Keep it up!
Nicely scripted and beautifully shot
I swear I will never understand how these are so well filmed and put together
IN-CRE-DI-BLE
Bravo! 👍👍👍
I love how you still use music from the TH-cam audio library. You are proving a point to the snobby film making community!
Ha! I wish I could say it was to prove a point, but in reality is just because we’re poor. But seriously, I’d you take the time to really search through the audio library there’s some really good stuff in there!
I was able to catch a few beautiful Rio grande cut throats in the Rio Costilla creek in northern New Mexico. Beautiful country there.
First time seeing one of your videos. Im 40 seconds in and I already know this is about to be great 🔥.
Too damn good at making videos!
This is excellent
Just found you guys and I’am glad I did awesome video and a very talented artist as well you guys make great content!!

The youtuber TenkaraAddict fishes this region a lot, you might try to contact him and compile reports?
Not sure the video mentioned it, but cutthroat trout have been around for more than three-million years in the interior west. Apache trout are descendants of the Mexican gold trout which is a younger species.
Is there any way i can buy the original canvas of the Apache trout?
Hi, unfortunately, the Apache Trout Original is already sold. We do have our latest films Original Baja California Rainbow Trout available on our website : tightloopsfly.com/store/baja-california-rainbow-trout-original-painting
isn’t the Gila Trout further south?
Yes! But it’s not a cutthroat. The Rio Grande cutthroat is the southern most distribution of cutthroat trout. As far as trout in general, there are native trout way down in Mexico!
@@TightLoops Thanks!
Have you corresponded with Ted Williams, the conservation writer? I remember him doing a series on endangered trout many years ago and the lack of support from the state game agencies.
Yes! I sit on the advisory board of the Native Fish Coalition, of which Ted is a founding member! Great writer.
