Fly Fishing for INCREDIBLE Trout!!

  • This was a simple video with no music, no crazy edits, just fishing and adventuring in the wilderness. Fly fishing in low water presents some difficult challenges, the biggest being that it's tough to get into a position to cast at them without spooking the fish. But downsizing tippet, flies, and going finesse can also help you in many cases.
    I was using a 8'4" 3wt rod with cortland's ultralight trout series line. I've found that this line helps me to keep a low profile when it gets to this time of year.
    Here's to getting some rain and to having a good summer of fishing! #fishing #flyfishing #troutfishing

    Thank you for not editing or putting on music. The sound of the rushing water is better than music. Your consideration is greatly appreciated as well as the fun fishing adventure👍

    I enjoy hearing the sound of the water and birds chirping in the background. I like the music you usually play as long as it isn’t to loud to drown out hearing the creek or you talking. Another great video. 👍

    I’m a big parachute Adam’s guy. I live up in NY and fish a lot of the Catskills streams. People ask what I’m throwing and I tell everyone you can catch trout anywhere up here if you just throw a #16 parachute Adam’s like two feet above a weightless #16 soft hackle pheasant tail. Yesterday I fished a couple different creeks after work. Got a dozen or so brookies in the one from 6-10” and the other I was fishing some new water down from where I usually fish. Usually I catch sub six inch brookies there so I was throwing my 2wt glass rod on 6x. (Yeah we need some rain up here too the low water is miserable) Well I was a bit surprised when a 18+” brown sipped my Adam’s haha. Fought him for a couple minutes and he broke me off half in the net. I guess I’ll back for that one. I did get a nice 16” brown a couple pools later as a consolation prize but… man that big one is hard to get off the mind hahaha. Lastly, if I’ve been getting skunked in a very likely looking hole I’ve been taking off the dry dropper and throwing a little micro bugger ive tied. It’s like a size #8 maybe #10. Small enough that even though it’s a beadhead fly it hasn’t really been spooking fish in the low water but also big enough that it’s a decent imitations of the sculpins and darters around here. I tie it in brown and gold. That’s actually what I got that 16” brown on. Anyways, another great video man!

      Hey I’m heading up to the Catskills in a couple weeks and actually trying to find some brookie streams because I’m just into small streams and less pressure, but yeah I know of fir brook off of the willowemoc creek but that’s about it, any other suggestions would be great

      @edwardrolle7723 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@charliesutphin3808sorry man I don’t give spots out to just anybody, especially in a TH-cam comments section. A lot of these streams quite frankly don’t need to see the pressure. But I’ll give you some tips… there’s a lot of big popular trout streams in the Catskills that everybody knows about right? You’ve got the Beaverkill, willowemoc, esopus, neversink, and Delaware they’re really the big 5. There’s more but I’d say those are the ones that see the most pressure. Spend some time looking at a map and follow these rivers looking for tributaries coming off the mountains. A lot of these creeks hold state land too. You don’t have to look too hard to find them. I caught wild trout out of 29 different Catskill streams last year and natives in 18. I’m already at 16 this year and a lot of them are new creeks. I’m sure there are few people as obsessive with mapping these little wild gems as I am but hey trust me theyre out there. Besides, I’m the type of guy that gets just as much enjoyment in finding the fish myself as I do in catching them. It makes the whole thing that much more rewarding! I’m actually going out to check out one new creek and one awesome creek right now. Good luck

      But hey anything can be bought I’m 25 and broke… if somebody wants to pay my rent this month I’ll happily sell you my list of about 40 Catskill streams, where they have public access AND what you’ll catch there. 25 brookie streams or your money back guaranteed. It’s not cheap putting gas in the car to get out and fish 2-3 times a week XD

    Cool that you can fish in such a tiny stream! Well trout not huge but well done. Where was this? East coast, NY? Or similar? I guess trout are too spooky for micro-spey and creeks too small. Don't need music or fast cuts, fine the way they are. Fished the creeks around Ithaca as well, no results, but similar fishing. Now in Norway, also lots of piddlers. But in the mountains 500g-1kg fish (but very difficult on fly, mostly on spinners or earthworms). Amazed you can flyfish in such tight bush, amazing you can backcast at all. Tight lines! Keep up the vids!

    I live in CT and lt looks like another low-water summer going into fall. Last year it was dry fly fishing heaven on the West Branch of the Farmington. Water temps will be an issue. Small flies and long leaders. 6x and 7x will be the norm.
