  • In part 14 of the truck bed camping road trip, I relocated to a new stream in Wyoming and find some big trout looking up. The dry fly bite was so good! What a day!!
    I started my 9 week road trip on July 31, 2022, and spent roughly 3 weeks in WY, ID and MT. Check out all the videos from this trip in the playlist linked below:

  • @craigfiebiger1730
    @craigfiebiger1730 ปีที่แล้ว

    I live out there in the summers and have a friend that has a much smaller creek on his land adjacent to BLM land, so it is only fished once a year. I always do well and the cutts are just like those. You have experienced Nirvana now, Drew!

    It would be cool to see shots of you removing the hook. I'm a new fisherman and I saw you wet your hand before removing the trout at 7:02, which I believe you did to protect their natural coating of the fish. Would love to learn as much as I can from you through the videos. I've been fishing without barbed hooks because I don't want to hurt the fish in any way beyond catching them before releasing them back to the river. Appreciate the content!

  • @louied6065
    @louied6065 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice! Those cuties were gorgeous. Next time you’re back East huntin wild brookies, look into the Monongahela National Forests in West Virginia. They’ve done a lot of stream restoration and if you like to hike , I bet you’ll get into some in the 10’’-12’’ range. 👍🍺

    Another amazing video Drew! Nothing like having the river all to yourself at “Dry Fly Paradise”! That female you caught at 7:15 was beautiful!
