Great video Brayden! It's nice to see you take us on fishing trips throughout NFLD like this! Nice salmon and trout! Looking forward to the Mackerel fishing on the 5wt!
I used a 6wt on the Torrent in 2022 and it was awesome. BTW, I just started following you and saw you were at my stomping grounds at Black Brook in 2022. Sure enough it was me and my fishing partner down stream from you folks. I had the salmon on. Very cool to see that.
A lot of fun buddy ! I have never really done any fly fishing not many steam like that close to me , So it's just a little rod & lake tout or big Pike :) Had a little incident so slowed my building progress & can't hold a rod for a few weeks now but hope to get back out soon :)
@@Braydencoish For sure i have a little more time to watch since my booboo, Tucker & I Garry got me watching your channel, was trying to keep up with your awesome camping trip last week !
I've been fishing a 3wt here on the Avalon for over a decade. I've yet to have a problem landing fish quickly or releasing them safely. If i fished bigger water I'd go to 5/6wt.
I think the 5 weight is going to be one of my go to rods for salmon , unless I plan on targeting larger fish ( 10+ lbs ). It’s sure a fine difference between the classic 8 weight , yet still about the same fight duration , even when horsing them in.
@Braydencoish I should add that with the lighter weight gear you want a rod with a stiff butt section. A noodle won't work IMO. Maintaining a low rod angle is also important.

You can’t beat a 5wt rod and 5wt line for action 👍 I have a 4 piece with the 5-6 wt really nice feeling handling trout or salmon

Plenty strong enough to get em in , but you feel it all !

I know we have some vicious winds here in NL, but 5km per second has gotta be a record! 😅
@@RemedyElixir 5km per second ?
5 km SOUTH wind it said 🤣

@durritidumange I agree. I opted for an 8’6. You still need the backbone for sure !
I agree.
Do you guide???
@@Steadyoutdoors I can guide residents of NL !
No out of provinces , I don’t have a guide license sadly. Working on it !
