- This is the first part of a series about my fly fishing trip to New Zealand's North Island.
I managed to dodge cyclone Gabrielle and had some good days.
This is my first day, where I explore a few streams in the Te Urewera region.

Bloody brilliant video, ego left out, technology left out and the action allowed to speak for itself! Well bloody done! I troll the internet for fishing videos to watch and 99% that I find I never watch, the presenters don’t realise the manner in which they telegraph to the prospective viewer what it is that prevents the viewer proceeding to watch. Oh and no soundtrack other than the natural one. For me to relate to a video it has to relate to my experience of fishing and this one ticks it in spades, few fish, small fish and in this instance a little familiarity with the region. Well Done.
Thank you so much! This is the best comment I've ever had!
I've fished a few places around the world and when I'm in a new place it is sometimes difficult to find information about places to fish, access, etc. I decided to make these videos mainly to show people what the river and the fishing is like in a particular location - the sort of thing I would find useful when looking for somewhere to fish. I don't seem to catch the big fish very often, so I just show what I catch. I do add some music sometimes, but that's so subjective. I often skip videos just because the music is annoying or just not to my taste, so it's a risk to add a lot of music to the video.
I'm slow at producing the videos, so I have a bit of a backlog. I'm working on a final video from my trip to France last year and then I have another NZ trip to work on.
Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment.
@@ITriedThis I skip an enormous number of videos just by seeing that they have someone who has created themselves an identity that is displayed at the beginning as i find that they are ego driven and the content that start with someone travelling and talking to themselves, effectively, I skip. My reason is I watch to get the fishing experiences of my past and as I have never gone fishing, looking into a mirror, talking to myself, all my thoughts out loud, nor been able to hover along above myself, nor hover over myself fishing, stuck my head under the water to view a struggling fish, nor made sure my face was close enough to the fish being released that I to was splashed and never ever had a soundtrack playing while I fished. I f it doesn’t relate to my experience of fishing I am unable to connect and so I don’t bother. Don’t take to heart too much of what I have said but do keep making your videos. Very well done.
@jamescrydeman540 I second you to your comments mate. So many fishing videos you see on TH-cam are ego driven. Particularly as you mention they talk to themselves and commentate as they are casting at a fish as if they own a water. There's more talking than the actual fishing some times and then there's the music.. Well.. The other thing I can't stand either in a lot of fishing channels they speak about how many fish they've caught at the end of that day on the river to confirm to themselves and have the audience hear out loud how well they have done and what they expect to catch on the river at the start of there day. That's all about your ego. Basically living in a world of arogance. I think some people are too big for there boots. It's just the way people portray themselves on camera some times as if they are automatically going to or expect to catch that fish. After all its called fishing, not catching and most humble fisherman don't speak out loud what they should expect and then talk about how surprised they are if things don't go there way.
well done for an insightful fishing videos and promoting NZ. Great to use your video to plan a great trip. Keep them coming
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy the videos. I'm making a couple of new videos from a trip to the French Alps I did recently. I'd never fished there before but I found a few nice spots.
Another NZ video coming later too!
Nice work mate ,and thanks for naming the rivers,down where I live our rivers have been torn to bits by the cyclone, Hawkes bay fish wont return for probably 12 to 18 months, enjoy the rest of your travels ,tight lines
Sorry to hear about the rivers near you. Hope they recover soon (and the rest of the region). This was filmed a couple of days before the cyclone so these streams may have suffered too.
I did some fishing in the rivers around Taupo after the cyclone, and they were not too badly impacted. I may post some video of that soon.
Thanks for watching.
Not sure that was a compliment. Take as you like.

I’ll be a bit more blunt…..Who provides pinpoint directions on TH-cam for where to go fishing?? Thinking that you might as well poor chlorine or similar into the river in terms of future prospects.
You can find these places by spending literally 5 minutes on google maps and New Zealand's Fish and Game website. That's what I did. I don't think I'm giving away any secrets.
@@ITriedThis I guess it is standard practice never to name a spot on youtube, it tends to ruin spots. Just say North Island river etc
@@ITriedThis you are great
Pathetic comment Mr. McGinn
Just cause you know where it is doesn't mean you going to go and catch anything there. As it's not exactly on most people's doorway don't think pressure going to be too much of an issue, have you fished the tongariro!!
