Hey!! Yeah, I totally suck at fly fishing, and I'm very ok with that!!! Thanks for the shout-out!! You the man, Ben! 🙂🙂✌️🎣
You have some good vibes. Subbed 👍
@@dtffishingmi thanks man! 🙂🙂✌️🎣
I love Reds Fly Shop YT channel, Joe is a master at teaching people online how to fly fish. He's a straight up great guy, and I've never heard him badmouth anyone.
Haha guilty as charged! Although the good news for you, and sad news for us is the van is gone. Though we moved into an equally, if not more "adventurous" alternative. Thanks for the mention, I feel like this was in good fun! I've always appreciated the honesty in your videos, and its always good to have a few ball-busters around ❤
Edit: I would also binge the fuck out of a @PhelpsontheFly surfing channel. C'mon Will, give the people what they want 😄
Still really enjoy your channel. You were both so helpful in helping me start my incredibly small yet steadily growing channel. Probably watched Journey On more times than can remember
Thanks! You know how much the support means to us!! @@halfmoonflyfishing
Love you guys!!!
I still think someone was mean to him in Maine so that colors anything that has to do with the New England region.
thank you!!!@@loricollins3163
Rolf Nylinder - putting my mosquito problems into perspective.
"It builds up inside of me and I just have to let it out" ☠️
I wanna a video about the WildFly falling out.
Yea but we got a long way before any of the parties involved will let the beans spill
Whoa whoa wait when did that happen
What are we talking about wild fly is the jam
@@joeysalas7923 this about how there is drama between wild fly and blue line. We won’t ever see a sailboat or short bus diaries again
Ben talked a bit about his beef with wildfly in one of his membership videos. It boils down to him having taken time of work to show them around Colorado, only to get bailed on without any notice.
What makes Huge better than most, honesty and availability to your viewers. Like you mentioned on some podcast, even just dropping the "heart" in a DM shows you saw the message and responded which is far more than most of these channels. You have the range to drop into a scientific aspect of a bug, but the self awareness to moon a passing train in the next scene. Ben makes fly fishing videos for the american fly fisherman because thats who he is and that's who he cares about LOL
Hey Dude, you're my fave fly fishing youtuber. I watch some of the others too, but I enjoy yours the most. I like the fact that you post every week. I like that I'm not getting overloaded with drone shots, story lines, slo-mos, technicalities, and hipster music. You keep it simple: beers, fishing, cul-de-sac reggae, honesty, and a little humor. Lastly, I like that you aren't afraid of losing your audience members.
''Ben. It's Mrs. Smith, your grade 3 teacher. Remember what I thought you about making fun of others. If you don't have anything good to say..., you can always talk about drinkin' beer and eatin' fried chicken.'' 🍗🍺🤣👍
So glad you mentioned FlyfishDan, love that guy! You and him are my go to fly fishing youtubers 🍻
Dan rocks!
He has way to many clickbait titles
@@TiredAmerican247 WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE THE NEXT EPIC PERSONAL BEST FISH EVER CAUGHT ON PLANET EARTH!!!
@@FlyFishDanHahahahaha, I almost fell off the couch! Love your channel Dan and please keep being you!
The New Fly Fisher is the best. It’s my go to relaxation show.
Also- you threaded the needle on Kelly Galloup. Dudes a straight legend, and he can ramble as long as he’d like
Also, your channel rocks too
The “Again half as long” clip is one of my favorites to drop on people
If you ever do a part three, you should have Hank Patterson as a cohost.
“If it’s a medical condition, I apologize“ and “Kelly Galloop” 😂 I have no idea why I like hearing your opinions, but I do. And the sly self deprecations are hilarious. But in the end, it’s clear you are a caring, compassionate, sweet person down deep (like, very deep… buried under layers and layers of tons of sarcasm and cynicism 😮). You keep it real. Thank you amigo.
People that complain about the length of Kelly’s tying tutorials have never watched a 10 minute tying tutorial 20 times in a row trying to keep up. 😂
Fly fishing requires a lot of study. Discipline. The ones having success have that character trait
Gee, if there was only some way to interrupt a video for slow people...😅
And SMART people that don't have to watch a video 10 times take advantage of that technology!😂😂😂
@@Michael65429 what sorcery is this that you speak of???
The real G’s like the 40 minute tying tutorials because he drops some serious knowledge about streamer fishing and HOW and WHEN you fish certain patterns that he ties😎
@@halvo11 I’ve watched a few streamer tutorials half a dozen times and I’ll pick up something new every time. Tons of information
Mosquitoes and Mayflies is the best fishing mini series I have ever seen
Regarding Hardman: Out east we don't have many big wilderness rivers. During the development of the nation people built around navigable water and the east coast is a lot more populated than our west so once a water body becomes larger, it becomes developed.
Our tiny mountain streams with native brookies are incredible and show people something not everyone gets to enjoy.
I used to love their fishing in confined rock/cement walls /next to someone's backyard creek fishing vids they used to do but don't anymore for some reason , And they mixed it up with spin fishing to include everybody .
@@rosariocannistraro3561 yeah I think mixing it up with spin fishing doesn't subtract from it being a fly fishing channel. It adds to it, to help people transition from spin fishing to fly fishing.
Also I think it's natural progression to watch a channel (TV show) for a while and then grow out of it. I watch a lot less TH-cam now because I'd rather not just consume content but possibly make it or be productive and do something that has an impact rather than just consuming stuff.
And our thin blue line streams are getting ruined by these channels... I've been witnessing the demise for over 50+ years and I know of what I say.
@@Michael65429 what do you mean our thin blue line streams are getting destroyed? Do you mean they're getting fished too much?
Let them hate on the mountain streams around here. Less people to contend with and that’s fine with me
Ok, great call on Rolf's vids. The fact that he has to deal with that many mosquitoes AND fish AND make videos gives him huge props. Mosquitoes suck. But c'mon about Joe at Red's! I want to hang with that dude.
If a video has a clip of someone making coffee that’s an automatic out for me
Ahahahauaahaahahh
You forgot packing the suv, the 4 hour drive and bad obnoxious soundtracks.
Dam I have that in one of my videos but my channel sucks butthole anyways. Probably the worst on youtube.
I am guilty of that, but nobody really watches my garbage anyway. I need a checklist or something to make sure I don't violate these rules.
how about slo-mo shots of guys boots as they walk in waders?
I like Red's and Kelly Galloup's channels as they both provide lots of useful information. I watch fly fishing videos primarily to increase my knowledge, not for amusement. Kelly does tend to have long videos but I find them packed with tips and techniques and sometimes even wish they were longer!
Ahh yes - The New Fly Fisher
The best place to catch up on that Orvis corporate video you watched last week, last month, or three years ago!
I agree, the setup was entirely too long.
Rolf Nylander is so calm and poetic with his videos.
He doesn’t always catch fish but talk about his experience and teach us about everything, love it.
You should watch Carpe Diem, also another Swedish fishing channel!
The New Fly Fisher has so many slow motion shots. Sooo many omg.
Yup, and Melnick and Spicer suck
Much love from Canada -- you are the reason I got back into fly fishing after a 10 year break -- cheers!
New fly fisher just feels like a series of ads for fishing lodges in Canada. They catch fish, but there's a real "Richard from Houston" vibe.
Stay tuned for my new series I'm producing with an iphone, "the Chronicled diaries of my fly fishing journey in Alaska, sponsored by YETI". Featuring subtly whispered narration
Big fan of Tight Loops - they are great filmmakers and much more than their rig.
If anyone didn’t know that Hank Patterson was a character should quit fly fishing.
Rolf IS killing it
Hell yes, Rolf is the MAN. His storytelling is everything.
As for some of the others you mentioned........
I hate to say it, and I've been wanting to say it, so I'll just vent about it here (since you opened the door). The more professional film gear you have and effort you put in--'epic' music, swoosh transitions, bokah shots, slow-mo macros, etc.--but you DON'T have an actual story, the more I hate it. I'd rather watch Luke on Outdoor Boys with his GoPro just running me through his little adventures than listen to your stitched together attempt at getting me to feel something about whatever it is you're doing.
Thanks for this video, Ben. That was like a weight off the chest!
(but also, keep making videos, all. Just learn and grow and don't settle as a creator).
Seeing @KevinRapkochFishing get that shoutout just made every AZ angler's day, great stuff as always Ben!
Thanks man!!! 🙂🙂✌️🎣
You nailed it on Curtis Fleming, and the new Flyfisher. Warp speed snooze. Great video, gave me a good laugh.!
looking forward to seeing my channel in ep 3 ;) my tens of viewers will enjoy the shout out.
love your vids ben, keep it up.
I get a kick out of your videos but I learn more from Reds fly fishing, but keep doing what you do. How come no comments on tenkara channels?
Thanks for recommending Rolf, just checked out a few videos and they're great.
Whoa...HFF caught a grizzly bear on a fly!
who could ever compare with the caustic expertise and downright humble humility of the Mr Huge? NO ONE!!!! keep on truckin' Mr Huge. totally witty and smartass, my favorite method of communication.......
Don't ever apologize homie - Had your back since day one.
Huge flyfishing, flyfishing Dan and carp on the fly are my three favorites.
The waders bit was by far the funniest thing you’ve ever done…..and that’s not a stab at your funniness. Bravo.
Yep, that cracked me up too! 😅
Dude, no shout out for the man Alvin down there in Texas? Wicked funny and informative
JFC how dumb are you
Agreed, love his simple guide flies (see Ben, I spelled it correctly). Great for simpletons like me.
My least favorite trend that several channels do is *trout gently sips fly* "omg he absolutely CRUSHED IT!" No, he didn't.
Dude it is so refreshing to have someone tell it like it is!
Rolf is the GOAT!
I love Rolf's videos even if they've convinced me that I couldn't handle the mosquitos in northern Scandinavia.
@@JeremiahGreco 100% I have no idea how they survive those things.
UNDISPUTED. The crazy thing is he really has no idea how brilliant he is.
Thanks for picking up the thrash and shining up the gems off the Finternet!
FlyFishDan wins the clickbait award I think. Every single title is like - I NEVER THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAPPEN!!! PERSONAL BEST??
Spoiler, he hooked and lost a (possibly big) fish within 5 seconds and there is a huge build up.
You’re welcome
@@FlyFishDan Haha I had a feeling you would see my comment. I'm not a hater. Like Huge said, it takes balls to post any content at all. The more click bait the title is, the faster I swipe away though. 😆
@@FlyFishDanbig fan Go Cougs keep it up
lol 100%
"Troutbitten is only about trout." Well, yeah, hence the name! A lack of diversity is not a bad thing if I want to see trout videos. There are plenty of other channels for other species.
@TightLoops is awesome. Love them
Finally someone says what we were thinking about The New Fly Fisherman
Half an hour, you're never getting back
@@douglaslaughlin3946 the kind of videos they play at the dentist office in the waiting room
@@douglaslaughlin3946You made it through an entire episode? Congrats... i could't do it.
Yes!!! HAHAHA! I can’t stand fly fishing videos that act like they wrote an extravagant novel describing the intro of the video.
Rolf is my fav, his videos are simultaneously beautiful and relatable. He’s awesome. Good watch before bed.
Totally agree with you on Rolf Nylinder! Great guy talking bout some deep shit. And he catches beautiful swedish Grayling.Whats not to like?
Always entertaining. Been watching Fly Fish Dan for a while now. At least I know you approve.
LOL the “Canadianess” love it stay huge.
Wait there are other fly fishing TH-cam channels besides you? 😂
Nailed it with Rolf (really enjoy his videos) and Curtis (Could tell you some stories of the “staging” I’ve heard from his earlier WV days.)
Direct , honest , informative and funny . Great job
Rolf nylander is Killing it! I love his humor and look forward to every diaries he makes!
It's Monday. It's Huge. Never have compared Ben with other TH-cam fishing dudes. He's in a class by himself. Coming to you from Canada where we need to watch Huge because we are so dull.
Now I want to create a chronicle just to hear him banter! Lol
Oh man Fly Rod Chronicles with Curtis Fleming is “great!”😂
while i don't agree with knocking the other channels, your take is spot on with most of them. i love fly fish dan, he's so jolly lol
New Flyfisher loves those 'trote' as they say up in maple syrup land
Great video Hank Patterson; when’s the next tenkara how-to video dropping?? 🎣
We need one of these for instagram/meme accounts. Also Rolf is the GOAT, no one comes close to what he is putting out.
Long time no see, ready for this, theres one guy I can’t stand, hope you cover him. 😂 so mad. You’re literally the best fly fishing nerd on YT, Ben.
My favorite one was the flyallszn jab. I would add that Johnny and Kelly are joking about th wearing it of the streamers. They clearly stated that you should only count them if legally hooked lol
The pick up trash ending is god tier
I like to watch Hardman some. I get a kick out of seeing the weird little creeks and ditches. For some reason I have a fascination with odd little pieces of water that may hold trout.
Proper video. U should do a satirical VIDEO about people who wear zipper waders🤣
😂
Hey man don’t dis yourself, I enjoy the hell out of your videos! Can’t wait for Mondays to come around
I’ve actually had some pretty good customer service experiences from farbank. I’ve had a few reddington rods and reels crap out on me (totally my fault) and they always treated me well and got me back on the water pretty quick. Rio lines have not been the best tho lol
Hahaha! That’s funny. This is great and I watch half those channels. I’m just glad we live in an age where we can easily access fly fishing content to get our fix when we can’t be on the water. I will say this much -an entire video of chest cam footage is a hard no for me, no matter what they’re catching. 2nd to that I don’t need to sit there and watch you make and drink your coffee, that’s a definite “skip ahead.” I drink coffee every day and it’s never that important.
The thing with Adam and Scotty made me think about when you posted the first video you were fishing a ton with James from About Trout. I hope he's still guiding and you two are still buds. Also, there was talk about you and Alvin meeting up. Would still love to see that episode.
He tells the good jokes
@thereallevel27 that is the claim! I haven't heard one of these good jokes. Decent humor. Great bass knowledge.
Yeah, I miss those Jayden and Chad instructional videos 😄
Ben and Alvin would be a great colab
@@czwirner both of them have talked about it at one time
I feel like I had to watch just to make sure I wasn’t being roasted…. 😂
Blue Line Co.....hooks 6" stocker, screams "Let's goooooooooooooo....". Hard Pass.
Haha! I believe you're confusing our channel with another one? Because we totally agree.
the one blue line co video I saw was all slow mo brand logo shots and cheesy scripted ads for products. felt so fake and gross
I think you're thinking of Jon B
The primary audience of fishing videos is people who don’t fish or fish a lot. In that context it doesn’t really matter if they are good or not.
Well Huge like a lot of people these days you just had to talk bad about others. Let's see some fishing ok?
You did see the amount of snow outside his car, right? His area recently got hammered with another round of winter.
I did see it. I'm not just talking about this one time. I like Huge and would love to fish with him one day.@@spuddoright1970
He didn’t really talk bad about anyone in this video
stay HUGE with HIMS
Good stuff! Imma check some of these folks out. Thanks Huge!
How many more stocked trout do I need to eat to be in episode 3
Rolf is crushing it - dudes on another level
Hahahaha thanks for the Curtis Fleming hate as well
🌴 So I’m watching this while drinking a beer , Burrrrrrp and eating fried chicken , burrrrp , and tying fly’s , I don’t entirely suck at fly fishing only because I watch You tube videos that help me , plus I find them entertaining and informative,well some of them ,but some of them are Huge !
Fly fishing chronicles with Curtis Fleming.. OMG, the worst half hour on television.
I too suck at fly fishing. Your fly fishing channel is the only one I can stand and subscribe to… amusing and informative. Thank you.
One things for sure: ol Ben over at huge fly fisherman don’t miss. Ever.
Ben! You nailed it on this video. Keep it up brother
Loved the zipper front waders! Best thing ever made for a 63 year old that has to pee every 10 minutes
Yes Kelly goes on and on, but its part of the vibe i think and if you're patient and hang in there he drops some funny lines. The recent one where he was just so stoked casting dries with his glass rod was so great. Didn't catch a fish but he had a great day and it definitely changed my view of things. He's just such a master
Great video definitely need another one of these lol
Im glad you openly admit to just wanting to give people shit. But in the end you just try to put out informative ans fun videos. Good on you Ben
Pretty much spot on with your assessment of some of these channels. Just keep up what you’re doing , it may not be for everyone and that’s OK that’s why there are so many fishing channels. Stay Hugh and thanks for sharing.
I am in no position to slam anyone's videos cuz I have no idea what it takes to do one, but I will say Gallup is kinda long winded, but he's a great tyer and fisherman.
Troutbitten is the best video channel by far!
When telling my buddies about how I enjoy watching Hardman Fishing Adventures and Huge Fly Fisherman my sexuality was questioned.
Is it actually possible to catch a fish while being recorded without yelling "LETS GO"?
Tbh, this is the only fly fishing channel I watch. I came across the fly shop and guide etiquette videos a couple years ago, cracked me up and sold me on your channel. Can always count on a video on Monday morning to start the week off right. Stay Huge!
You're really missing out
@@tomrivera8480not really, I watch Ben, Jensen occasionally, and Kelly Galloup. All you need
Curtis Fleming is from West by God Virginia where everything moves at the speed of dark. Enough said. Stay huge Ben.
I'm glad that Rolf Nylander gets noticed. His viewership is way too small.
Tight Loops. I stumbled onto them with their great video on the Nelson trout in Baja. After that, all their videos reeked of "vanlife millennial photographers looking for content".
