  • In part 9 of the truck bed camping road trip, I'm fly fishing a stream that was loaded with trout. This stream was amazing. Every hole held a beautiful cutthroat! The scenery was also spectacular! I end the day camping in this amazing valley!

    Beautiful stream and fish. Many of your places I recognize, as I am older and have fished these states for a lot of years. I don't recognize this one, because it looks like 15 others that I have fished. 🙃 I respect that you don't advertise the names or locations. Thank you for that. These small remote streams are treasures to be enjoyed when you stumble onto them.

    This reminds me of my youth working on a tug on the east coast I would
    Work 20 on 10 off I fished every day for 20 years salt in winter fresh in summer
    Being able to do that is a great life at 65 I will tell you it comes with a price , with all the places I've fished I'm getting to a point where starting a family late and
    Not saving a lot of money my thoughts of retirement are not what I thought they would be not so much financially but the places I've been fortunate enough to
    fish I don't think I'm as able as when I was young ,but wouldn't change a thing !

    Don't sleep on the whitefish! They are a native species, they fight hard and they are a sign of a healthy fishery. Many a slow day has been saved by cooperative whiteys! I call them freshwater bonefish. Great videos, I love following along on your trips out west. I hope to run in to you out there someday.

    My experience in Montana is that you really ned to fish from a drifting boat when going through someone's ranch. The local fishing guides are very valuable when it comes to knowing where to put a boat into a steam and exactly where to take it out several miles down stream. You will notice that just about any back road crossing a stream will have the bridge barbed wired to prevent people with an attitude from entering a stream by climbing down the embankment.

    He talks too much, it's not necessary to fill in the silence.

    Guy is probably best fisherman on any social media TH-cam or whatever - but never gives location, river name or anything else - thinks he needs disclosure discretion for some kind of inflated self importance

      What this guy doesn’t realize is that by giving locations he would attract many more viewers and make many x what he would make guiding at 500 hundred a day - and trust me the amount of people taking him up on these locations would be minimal and have NO effect on his returning

    I do not see any reason to fish if you throw them back, sport fishing is for people who do not need to be fishing.

      I don’t see a reason to play basketball or any other sport if you don’t make money from it. Maybe everyone should just sit around all day and rot away instead of enjoying life at all.

    Talk less and fish more.
