- In part 3, of my Fly Fishing Wyoming series, I'm Fly Fishing the most INCREDIBLE Stream in Wyoming. I've transitioned to another small stream to chase wild rainbow, brown and cutthroat trout. I decided to stay 3 days and each day will have its own video. This was the coolest stream I have ever fished, no question! The fishing was awesome, the scenery was breath taking and the wild trout were perfect! I was warned about the black bear activity along the stream and indeed, it was a very active spot for bears. I saw one coming down the trail the first day, but he went the other way faster than I could turn my gopro on. I was also warned to watch for rattlesnakes as they were also present. Fortunately, I never saw any snakes and only lots of bear scat. You can check out the other parts to this series below:

Damn it Drew, I'm sick to my stomach from watching you have all this fun while I'm stuck behind this pile of paperwork on my desk. "Hey guys! I just caught like 600 fish in Wyoming, and now i'm gonna enjoy an ice cold beer and smell this fresh pine air around a peaceful campfire!" Actually, i'm happy for you brother and extremely jealous. Have a safe rest of the trip and catch one for me!
Haha...sorry about that! It's been a good year!
Sounds like a personal problem to me micheal garcia
Drew keep going you are right now one of the best fishing chanel, all the best
Exactly the kind of water I look for. The harder the access, the less pressure & the better the fishing. Kudos for sharing!
Same here!
Solitary, remote, and full of fish + gorgeous scenery - heaven!
Couldn't have said it better myself!
Exactly!
I could live eat and breathe flyfishing!
Few people will understand how hard it is to be a solo fishing camera director. I get so locked on the fishing, the shots are always a hindsight. Beautiful work. Thank you.
I am amazed how easily you fish this stream and the fish you catch. Very cool.
You can't beat the feeling of exploration when stalking up a stream. Superb!
Nope, u really can't!
Incredible how you fish the little ponds, fast water, tight spaces!
It never ceased to amaze me how beautiful nature is...
Wild and untouched the way it supposed to be !
I wish i could tenkara that river..!
Greatings from France
Amazed everyday by what I see in this crazy cool place. Cheers!
Is that Grizzly country?...need bear spray?
@@garyrafferty7625 black bear, I carry spray for sure!
Spectacular! Thanks for sharing.
Truly was!
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Screen saver views every day!
Is this in The Winds, The Medicine Bows, or the Bighorns?
Wyoming is beautiful the streams are amazing all over the state. Bears, snakes and cougars you always need to keep an eye open for. Thanks for great fishing videos , I would love to get up there in the near future !
It has definitely become one of my favorite places to visit. No question, more trips are planned!
Wow !!!! This is a beautiful area. Thanks for sharing. You find some amazing places. I appreciate your videos.
Glad you like them!
I love boulder hoppin! Great film
Thanks, definitely earning those beers!
Awesome video man!! That looks like an amazing little stream. Wyoming is definitely on the short list of places to visit and fish.
Right on dude, yeah it's a super cool place. Definitely recommend spending some time exploring it!
You guys need to make a vid together fishing some creeks for native brook trout
First two bows you fooled were peppered with blacks spots. Looked like lil' Alaskan Leopard Bows🐆🏳️🌈
It's really a joy to watch your amazing presentations and skills. You are, indeed, a masterful fly fisher. Thank you so much for sharing!! Ron, NE Iowa.
Thanks for the kind words Ron! Definitely love the sport and fortunate to do it often. Also, very much still learning!
One of my favorite streams, recognized immediately
Awesome video, beautiful fish!!
Thanks for sharing.
Happy to do it!
Drew,
I had a Pro4X in 2013!! Loved it! Didn't fish much while in Colorado; couldn't afford it, had two boys!! Now I am in California, and have time for fly fishing in the Sierras!! Nothing as pretty as the Colorado rockies!!
Another great video/experience. The creek was gorgoues, albeit a lot of work to fish, and I can only imagine to film and set things up. Some really nice wild fish for sure. Can't beat the solitude, minus the bear, and being able to fish, hike, eat "dog food" and drink some beer in your happy place. That is what dreams are made of!
Definitely a cool place that I'll never forget. Places like it, keep me up at night searching for others like it!
Great video! What an amazing little stream. Thanks for sharing.
You bet! Was a fun trip!
Such a beautiful stream and great fish too.
Was indeed!
Really enjoyed the trip and fishing, thanks
Thank u! Had a great time and can't wait to start the next trip!
May sound corny as heck but that crystal water , flowing over stone, the mountains just seems enchanting. Beautiful fish too, pretty sure I’ll never get to experience the west and it’s streams. I used to wade fish a lot in the Ozarks ,, N.C. and even a lot in Ms. ( which doesn’t have boulders just gravel , sand and a lot of Bush and bramble) where I’ve spent most my life. But I’ve never seen anything quite like Wyoming . Thanks for sharing the great view and fishing. I know after a long day of rock hopping even Parina dog chow would taste great. Ha ha!
Haha, it does indeed. Well I hope you get the chance one day certainly worth it!
Hi Drew, I was in Woning in 1992. Boy I wish I was into flyfishing back then..... Love to come back, especially after seeing your video's. Greetings from the Netherlands ;-)
Awesome! Those are some beautiful little trout pools!
Definitely a special place!
Beautiful stream with some good fish!!..and awesome scenery!!
And it gets better the next two days! Such a cool place to explore!
@@LooknFishy As I mentioned last week or so, heading to Colorado this coming Sat..hope the snow storm doesn't mess up the fishing...can't wait...bowhunting for elk and dries for trout!!
I'm sure it will be a good time no matter what. I'd put money on the fish getting hangry at the first sign of the seasons changing!
Thats a nice but challenging creek with those boulders. Good work!
Thx man, definitely...get a work out and fun figuring out the seams and pockets!
Just found your channel.. love it! Small remote creek fishing is the best!
Super cool to hear, thank u much!
I love fishing Wyoming. I go up every year, back to my motherland, back to my peace.
Fantastic filming, fish, place!!
Really appreciate it, it was a cool stream!
Love your vids Drew.Awesome sport in a blissful environment.Did similar for about six years,after a medical episode.Did'nt document it though.Trust your occasionally eating some of your tastey targets.YUM.Thanks for this,respect from downunder.
Thank you. Well done.
Beautiful fish. The intro with the dirt road and turkeys was cool too. Nice to be out of the wildfire smoke by now !
Thanks dude, yea that was a cool surprise to find way off the grid!
That's some breathtaking scenary you have over there. Regards from Ireland
Great vid Drew! I like the overview shots, I know it takes a little longer and it's somewhat theatrical while you're doing it, but the results are nice. Enjoy the next two days, looks prime!
Thanks Roy, yes they can be but...I actually like getting creative with the vids. Just my way of keeping my mind engaged when I'm off the grid solo!
I agree with initial statement, it adds a lot to the videos when ppl know what state and general area the it is being shot. For me it also kicks it up a notch when the rigging system and fishing method is discussed. Cool video, subscribing !
Yea, have heard that and definitely adding more technique style vids to my channel. Was hesitant in the beginning b/c it seems like there are lots of those style vids on yt already. But I'm listening and have one in mind that I'll share on here soon. With more in the future! Appreciate the feedback!
Been watchin your vids for along time. Just opened an online outdoor company. Traveled from Reno thru 7 states in 19 days fly fishing. First Vid is published. Wife and I couldn't help thinking of your vids along our journey. Great scenery and Fly fishing !!!!
Man, sounds like you're living the dream. I'm ready to hit the road again for hopefully a few months this time!
great content! Reminds me of the good ol days
Great video Thank You!
Appreciate it man, thx!
wow. that stream is a beauty. nice whippin!
Definitely a cool place!
That river looks amazing, such a beautiful place. Wish we have places like that in the uk. Keep the good videos coming 👍🏼🎣
Was definitely a river I'll never forget! Will do it for sure!
Are you on the Res?
Great stream. Thanks for the video
Thanks man, had a good time for sure!
I really enjoy your videos Drew. I am new to flyfishing and hope to be able to cast like you one day! I love that little flip you do when it is going downstream.
Really appreciate it! Mending up or down stream can make all the difference in achieving a succesful dead drift or swinging a streamer or soft hackle!
Slayen' em bro! Love that country! I'm in N. ID and fish the famous St.Joe River. Awesome fishen'! Especially the tributaries!
Beautiful footage and scenery, awesome fishing, great presentation, and you have a nice demeanor with your viewers! Wyoming is a place I've dreamed of traveling to. Gorgeous state! Liked and subscribed! Cheers and safe travels! -Steve- from south central Texas.
Thank u for the kind words. Hope you get a chance to see it. My belief is, if someone takes time from their busy day to leave an honest comment. They deserve a truthful and respectful reply! Least I can do!
@@LooknFishy Thank you for the reply, it means a lot to your viewers! I'm actually watching your other videos and I'm enjoying those as well! Thank you for bringing your wonderful adventures to those who can't be out there. Take care Sir!
Real pretty rainbows. Just real nice spots. I fish these areas so I was amazed years ago on a trip to Utah with the rainbows flashing the red of the canyons you encounter there.
Have heard that before might check it out myself one day!
Sitting here in Claremont ,CA, I'm so envious. Good job! Nice video.
You guys in CA got it tough right now! Hope some good vibes make it that way. Thank you much!
Awesome stream!! Good video. I have not fished the big horn area.....looks like I should!
Got to see a lot of Wyoming in the two weeks I explored it...I didn't find any bad areas!
I also like that ur just human like the rest of us. Love peeping over a boulder to see a beautiful little pool. From N Maine originally & hv done my fair of watching em wiggle on the end of my line. Will check out ur other vids
Haha, definitely human no point in trying to hide it...I fall down often, get lost and say dumb things lol. But I have a good time aslo!
Good size and chunky fish for first season fish. I say that because the par marks are mostly still visible. They're usually only seen in first season fish.
Well done man . . . enjoyed it immensely.
Thank u! Yep, healthy stream and healthy fish. You should check out the other parts to this trip!
amazing video ! i really like the different view angles :D
Thx amigo!
Fishing places like this are my favorite. So jealous bro
Same here! Feel very fortunate that have seen it myself!
Beautiful water there.
Some of the best I have found!
Oh man that was awesome.
Thank u much!
Thank you so much for letting me express my feeling about your fishing
Your share every video so well.
Keep the hard work going and good luck.
Hope to see such awesome more ahead to.
Old friend,
I am with you ,hopefully you are with me
Definitely will, got plenty on here now and more in the works! Thanks for checking them out!
Cool video. Looks like some great fishing
Thx dude, it was a killer trip...the fishing and scenery were top shelf!
You cleaned that place. Nice job
Haha, was a good trip for sure!
Was likely there at or near the same time you were. Isn't it great? Wyoming is fantastic!
Saw a few guys, one lost his cell...hopefully that wasn't you lol! Yep, looking forward to visiting again this summer!
Fantastic.
awesome vids man keep it up!
Thx dude, definitely going to!
Freakin beautiful bows!!!!!! Love the wild fish
No question, wild fish from wild places is what I dig!
@@LooknFishy me too!
I like that cross body down stream hook set- delicious
Thank u much. Yea, the trout seem to point and laugh when I don't set down stream!
Love your stuff! Thank you! Do you have a video in which you discuss your camera gear, setup, and how you handle your camera and angles while fighting and releasing fish?
Here in the east, I climb over boulders like that to catch 6-inch brook trout. Boy would I love to visit Wyoming.
You'd definitely have a killer time in Wyoming for sure!
So when you catch an 8 inch fish, it's like him landing a 15 inch fish. It's all relative, and the little guys are no less trophies. Brookies, especially in the fall, are living jewels.
@@georgesakellaropoulos8162 you are dead on...every catch is a treasure and we should all be thankful for the opportunity to explore these awesome places.
Me too. I fished a stream and I was climbing around Boulders for brook trout that were not even 3 inches long. The biggest one I caught that day was like 8 inches. It's the only small stream that I know of in the area but I live 100+ miles away and I only go fishing every couple of months so I don't have much time to explore.
@@aaronmiller6118 I did some research and found some gov stream surveys that showed brook trout populations in a bunch of nearby streams.
Funny I do that same kind of stuff outside of Chicago here for smallmouth bass hiking up a little creeks middle of the woods find a good hole and catch some smiles I love your enthusiasm when you get to the hole to when you first get to the fishing place that’s like me jumping at the bit can’t wait to get the hell out there LOL
That's what it's all about! Lol, yea it usually takes me 20 mins or so to chill...hiking a couple miles before I start fishing definitely helps!
Yeah same outfit in the same fly LOL
Fish those remote streams while we can.
Loving you taking us to those beautiful parts of the west
My thoughts exactly! Happy to do it!
Good food .I do the same menu when I'm out.
I knew I wasn't alone!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I just recently moved to northwestern Wyoming and hoping to explore the river systems in my area. However, compared to other states, I quickly realized how Wyoming has everything fenced off. Perhaps you have already touched on this topic of water access. Can you help your viewers with tips on how to find public destinations to fish in Wyoming.
I would like to see maybe the techniques used explained or reason for fly choice ect as a newer fly fisher I am always at a loss on which to use/choose. I have really enjoyed watching this summers videos
Thank u. I'll be adding more technique videos to my channel as I build it out. There are two on there now explaining nymphing and using indicators. But I answer every question I receive so feel free to email me at, looknfishy@gmail.com or leave them in the comments. I'm not an expert but I'm happy to explain my thoughts on fly fishing and share what I've learned. I'm an open book!
Que lugar espetacular!!
Great 3 part series Drew. I do a lot of the same kind of fishing. Love hiking to waters that are out of the way. You called the dry fly you were using a "top shelf" stonefly. Is that the name of the fly? Would love to pick a few of those up. Subscribed!!!
Yea, all about the experience and noting beats getting off the grid to fish. It's one of my patterns. The hopper version is in my tying videos. The stone version is essentially the same but instead of reverse tying in the foam, just tie it on and leave some hanging off the hook. I add 2 sets of legs but that's it. Sorry, I don't sell flies. Just share what I use. Stay busy trying to keep my boxes filled.
👌🏻👏🏻from Denver Colorado
Glad to see your packing.........
Yep, rather have it and never need it, than need it and not have it.
You’re fishing my home waters. Nicely done. Sure appreciate the effort you put into making these videos. If you ever get back to Wyoming, and you should...give me a shout and I’ll let you know where to go around Buffalo👍 Though it looks like you already found one yourself. We have some pretty good high country spots as well. Not many are day hikes however. I know one place that gets skipped by most, and you can fish it and be back at your truck the same day.
Thanks Gary! I'm definitely planning on returning in July and would love to learn more about the area, if you're willing. Definitely want to protect your information...my email is, looknfishy@gmail.com.
Now that is some Kind 'O' Pocket Water.
Yea, definitely had some pockets and some flow!
Awesome vid! Love the fly! Hopper imitation?
Thx man, stonefly or hopper!
I love your videos. Thanks for sharing your adventures! I appreciate you showing the fly you used. Looks pretty big. Would you mind sharing what size the fly was and what your leader was/tippet size? Thanks man!!
Thank u. Sure, was a sz 10 tied on firehole outdoors terrestrial hook. 11ft leader tapered to 3x...gotta move those fish quick or pull them back!
Man we love fly fishing. I've been fishing the galatin and surrounding 100 miles for 47 years
We do indeed! Hope I can say the same thing one day! A good life!
Then you miss the old days where social media was not around as well as the terrific fishing.
Great Video!!! Dog food? I call that Spam Musubi!!!
Haha, it's fine dining for sure! Gotta have spam and vienna sausages!
Nice videos man!
Thank u much!
That sheet foam fly looks like it might be a good one for grass carp.
Some place Drew, some place Geez.
Incredible wasn't an overstatement!
Was thinking how scared I would be solo that deep in grizzly country, until I saw that you are well equipped with spray and sidearm. Have you come across many bears on this trip? Had any trouble in camp at night? Great videos, and mad skills.
Mo=More fishing brother 🦈🦈🦈
Great video mate, beautiful scenery and awesome fishing I love that sort of water to fish well done. Hey could you tell me what orvis rod and and length you are fishing? Regards Stuart.
Thank u. It's the h3f, 10'4wt.
Wow, great video! Beautiful country and fish. Nothing wrong with your dinner, either! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thanks. Yep, gotta love some spam especially with a side of good beer lol!
Very nice vid.
I love the nature over there, except the snakes.
What kind of camera did you use.
The colors are good and the movie is sharp.
tight lines and greetings from The Netherlands
Thank u! Would have been cool to see one but at a distance lol. Gopro hero 8. Really like it!
Love those kinds of streams, also love me some spam
Truly special places. I'd be worried about anyone who dudn't like spam lol!
Spam and robocalls are the bane of my existence lol.
@@georgesakellaropoulos8162 nothing is worse than robocalls, lol!
@JG WENTWORTH I bet he's not Hawaiian. They thrive on that stuff lol.
Great video series from WY ... thanks for not disclosing locations .... really like your day pack, what model is it? Seems like a good system for easy hiking.
You bet! It's nothing fancy just an ozark trail backpack from walmart. I just need something to hold gear and it was like, $20 bucks!
@@LooknFishy Thanks ... I keep looking for a better pack and yours seemed more functional than the one I'm currently using.
My heaven! Away from people. Peaceful! Serene!
Definitely was!
Just subbed I'd love to go fly-fishing in the mountains. I'm just doing it in south texas
South texas has some great fly water, fresh and salt! The Devils river remains one of my favorite trips!
I fly fish the Guadalupe all winter, it's some great trout fishing.
@@quintili1 yea, heard good things about the TU program there!
I really need a trip like that soon. Thanks for sharing. Looked awesome. Have you thought about a Simms type collapsible walking stick to hit the ground in front of you where the snake concern might be? Or is that just too much more to keep up with?
You are on point with the collapsible walking stick. Never considered one until I was using my net to hit the ground in front of me. Definitely something I'm going to look into for these kind of trips. The stick worked but I'd have to go back to where ever I walked into the stream to get it.
Drew LooknFishy I saw TFO is now selling one that collapses into a holster like the Simms wading staff for about half the cost. I almost bought a Simms in March. Talked myself out of it, but doing backwoods trips like you’re sharing encourages me to get one for those trips. Hadn’t thought much about the snake side of it until you talked through your journey. It’s a long way to medical help if I get tagged. At the Lower Mountain Fork, I’ve seen mostly small copper heads. I did get ran out of Evening Hole one night when a giant water moccasin decided to surface at the top of the water right at the top of the hole I was casting to. I figured he was giving me fair warning. He won that round.
@@WOScholar great info, will check it out! You're absolutley correct getting tagged that far away from help could easily turn a serious situation in to an emergency! Had my share of run ins with territorial cottonmouths, I let them have their space for sure!
Just had to join up .
i have a cabin with a deck over this river in this canyon. u are less then a mile from my cabin in this video! very cool dont see many people posting about it. thanks for not giving the location
Keep it to yourself. I'm jealous, but people will ruin it. It's nice to know quiet places like this still exist.
Drew, for your 5.5 foot bed of truck, look at the kodiak truck bed tent. Fits all 5.5
Yea I have considered a tent but those are pretty much exactly like what I have and trying to find an option for gear storage and sleeping. Thinking a topper is in my future...but I have also been researching the go fast campers bc they seem to offer a mix of tent and quick set-up/break down, which is what I don't like about traditional tents. Thanks for the information!
Hey Drew, nice video again. Was wondering whether you carry bear spray...
I do, keep it on my left side and my first option.
Well done. Enjoyable video. No unnecessary yapping during fishing. Should have posted the recipe for the "dog food" though... :-) Spam is one of my favorites.
Thanks man, yea I just fish. Will make sure to add the "dog food" when I do it again lol!
Man, that's some epic water! I do a lot of new mexico and colorado out of a truck topper in similar fashion. I do "dog food' tacos, "dog food'" raman, "dog food' alfredo, The chicken and tuna packs make a good substitute as well. A variety of Knorr side kicks, dehydrated hash browns, mashed potatoes, raman soups make for some interesting combos. If Im in on some brookies or browns ill bring one or two pan size back for the pan for dinner as well, of course the native trout always get the pass!
I'm definitely gonna steal some from your menu! My next truck will have a camper shell for sure!
@@LooknFishy Yeah, I was wondering where you're sleeping? Setting up a small tent?
@@gtoutdoorexcursions2938 nah, too lazy to set up and break down a tent every day. I just snuggle up in the back seat of my truck...it's tight but works for me lol!
@@LooknFishy I hear ya, I've been known to drive 15 hours just to catch 7 inch trout in the morning in a small stream, having my little house on the back helps, the last thing anyone wants to do is set up a camp, lol!
I get that! Yeah every time I get back from a trip I make a note of what I'll need and change for future trips. Camper shell is on top of the list!
Awesome video Drew, I just subbed I came here from your instagram
Thanks man, definitely adding more to the story here. Can't really do that in 60 sec clips on ig!
