    Those opening sequences of the trout dancing under the foam are absolutely breathtaking! I love how excited (and salty!) Amelia gets in these videos. lol. Thanks for sharing.

      Keith is right. I my self am from SW Scotland UK aswell. . dull ,wet, and windy. Typical Jan winter day. 🙄 . You do get some fantastic weather. Looks like the best filming and drone work out there. I love ❤ all the slow motion and the way u use it to show of the fish when it eats and the final take. It is truly spectacular to watch on camera. It has to be some thing else when your standing there in person and the reel sounds of and the line tightens lol 😆. The old ticker pumps faster lol lol. Nothing in this world 🌎 will come close to it. Stunning work.That pod from the drone was stacked with fish. Never seen anything like it. 👍 🤜🤛🤜🤛👍.......can't wait to get back out. Been tying flys and cleaning lines and gear ready for this season.... can't come quick enough. ........ catch u all in the next one........Malky....

I get excited, chills and tickled at your approach and decency. Thanks from an old and somewhat disabled woman who now gets her fly fishing wonder from both of you. Thanks so very much. You are masters of your craft. I am jonesing to be back at it!

    wow that was super crazy, like a feeding farm at the local zoo lol, never seen a pool like it where it seemed like there was 40 plus fish lol, even a cast not quite up to your personal standard or not intended to strike for a take, there's a fish on, that's crazy stuff. But hey when your in a canyon such as this with beautiful surrounding I'd be happy to take them all day.

    Love and appreciate your videos always. Thanks to ya’ll (and tons of luck) I was able to pull in 10 rainbows out of a spring I’ve gone to multiple times with no results! I notice that sometimes when I see you set your hook, as opposed to doing the general trout set, (like lifting it up) you set but also keeping the end low. Is there a particular reason you do that?

    • @jensenflyfishing
      @jensenflyfishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great to hear and good for you :) The #1 thing I don't do is lift a high rod - always angled to the side to offset the directionality of the take itself. If all you do is lift you'll miss a lot of fish whereas an offset setting will connect far more often.

    • @jensenflyfishing
      @jensenflyfishing  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can DIY certainly as many do but hiring a guide is important as there is considerable private land access otherwise to contend with - not as much an issue if you speak Spanish but if you don't it is difficult. We were in the Coyhaquie region and loved it.

    • @jensenflyfishing
      @jensenflyfishing  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      In 9 full weeks of fishing nearly every day, we noticed that every piece of water we fished could be legally accessed. Some locations might require a long hike or camping out but literally everything was publicly accessible. The lodges and guides do have contact and accesses they pay for but it's not like you couldn't quite easily walk to this reach of water. The lower end of the water in this video is only 4.2 km from a bridge, easily walked for those motivated.

Where do you draw the line and why get excited about something that happened 100+ years ago in stocking trout?

      That's an interesting take and has 100% validity in principle. But for a second let's back things up 150 years to when these fish were stocked and why - for sport and our enjoyment. Fast back forward to today - notice that there are fences and houses all along the river? Along every road? Along every field? Let us ask you - is there an inch of land, water or ice on the planet that isn't managed to the projection human values? National Parks & Refuges wouldn't exist without human value, nor would any other land management. And that's simply from a catch & release angler's perspective of the planet. Now let's just look at it as a laymen's perspective - the world has bowed to humans at every turn. It would be wonderful to think that our or your "my" version of sportsmanship or conservation could be washed over humanity or that we could change the direction of our species' herd, but given the above and how close to a major city in Patagonia we are in this video, that ship has sailed. There are wonderful protections in place on this river and those should sustain this generation so the coming ones can pick up the mantle into the future. All the best.
