  • Ken Tanaka is back on the water! This time, fly fishing in Idaho!
    The 2020 Western Tour is here! Once again I had to include the Henry's Fork! Easily one of my favorite streams. These beautiful waters and area bring me back time and time again. This time I was able to share my experience with good friend Chris O'Malley. In case of his personal best and to find a trout over 20 inches.

    Your videos were a big reason why i made the day trip to fish the henrys fork. Man was it worth it. I broke 20 inches on a fat cutbow, personal best. Hares ear.
    Thanks for all the great content, hope to run into you on the water sometime.
    Tight lines.

    Great video Ken ! You are such a funny guy , but on top of that a great fisherman! I watch your videos are try and learn from the best ! Good job helping your friend land his first 20 ! It shows what kind of unselfish person you are ! I myself have never landed a 20 but did break a couple off ! It’s what keeps me going, the quest for big fish !! Again great job with some nice fish landed !! I see your using an h3 , what model and can you explain your setup ? Tight lines !

      Thank you very much for the kind words and support. I really appreciate it. It was something special to be there for his first fish as well as several years later for his personal best!
      I am using the H3. Although you will see from the upcoming videos it was only because my rod broke! T&T Avantt. Luckily they were able to get me a loaner rod but I had to fish my back up for a couple of days.
      I do explain my set up at the end of the video. BUSTED, Shame on you for not watching till the end! 😉
      Let me know if you have further questions about the set up.
      Once again thank you again!

    • @Wish4Fish
      @Wish4Fish  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Please... American is the only country that cries about that! Rubber sucks! I'm not spending more for a cheaper product. I haven't found ONE rubber net that won't break after a couple uses.
      As long as you keep in the fish in the water, keep the net wet with the fish in it. They are fine. Besides this a hand woven net and is extremely soft.
      So no... I will not use another rubber net again. Thank you for your concern though.
