@@Madriveroutfitters lol not really. The amount of fish caught in the game, if it was realistic, you'd replace the water with just seas and rivers of fish and that's it. It's more Mideval than anything.
Just started binge watching your series.....great info for this beginner.....now I'll have the info to actually know what I'm doing now.....Thank you guys
I've been fishing for about 30 years. Just finally bought my first fly rod last summer. Haven't gotten the chance to use it yet besides some casting practice in my back yard. But I've loved watching all your videos. Everything is explained very clearly. I feel like I'm fully prepared to get started. Love the channel.
Brian, thank you so much for putting up this instructive series of videos. I literally just bought my first fly rod combo yesterday, after reviewing your videos a few months ago, and re-watching them all again last night, while taking notes! This is an absolutely invaluable series for the beginner fly fisherman. I feel like I have much more confidence in everything that I’m doing after watching these videos, and I cannot wait to get back out on the water here in the Shenandoah Valley! Thank you so much, hopefully one day I’ll make the drive to Ohio and see your shop in person!
Started fishing three years ago. I'll go for anything; bass, pike, panfish, walleye, catfish, etc. I taught myself from online resources because none of my friends are really into fishing. I'm really excited to learn fly fishing because it's pretty much the only form I haven't tried yet and it looks extremely fun!
This is making me so excited to get started. I've been interested in Fly Fishing for a long time. Can't wait to start! Thank you for making these videos.
I love this! I have been wanting to get into fly fishing because I've grown up bass fishing. I'm excited to learn more from your episode series! Thanks!! :)
after watching whole series about fly fishing from this channel, now i starting to do fly fishing! very educated videos!! thanks to you buddy. keep the line tight from Indonesia.
Who here watched the 1999 getting started and flyfishing series? Then started watching this and thought it was a different guy in 2023? Lol great series!! Thank you very much. I literally had to look up the names from the 1999 series to make sure it was the same guy. Awesome stuff.
Hey Brian I started watching you not signed in, and then had to sign in to tell you how excited I am to learn how to fly fish, therapy rod cast dance, and a survival skill with you. I finally bought a set up today passing a garage sale. Rod, reel, line, and fly ready to go. Looking forward to great times ahead with your channel!
I'm blessed to have a pond on my property that is steps from my back door that allows me time to practice what you teach. You are very correct to say it's not just for trout. I've stocked the pond with blue gill and bass and let me tell you, the first time I caught a blue gill on a fly rod I was... pardon the expression... hooked!!! So much fun to dry fly for blue gill.
Hey Brian and team. Great video series, it has been astoundingly helpful to me, a guy who just bought a fly fishing set up on a whim. I’m learning a lot and so excited to finish the series and put it all to use. Very well made, very high quality education! Thank you so much!
I had a nice older lady today give me an awesome fly fishing pole. He seemed to have a very sweet soul and I had expressed interest in learning how to fly fish and she told me her husband passed and gave me one of his fishing poles. I feel blessed and would love to learn. God bless
Wow, just found this video as I am looking to get into fly fishing, didn't even realize you guys were right down the road from me! I'll be sure to stop by soon.
Something I've always dreamed about and never had an opportunity to do!! I'm going to have to sit down and binge watch these 😁🙏 thanks for sharing and I hope you're having a very blessed day!!!
For fly fishing one of the things you need is water.. and if it had some fish in it that would help a lot.. True man. So true. Ain't gonna catch nothing if nothing is there to catch
Hey I’m from Scotland and fly fishing is most common round here and typically used to catch salmon and trout, very informative video thanks I’ve only been fishing using a lure and looking to start cheers for this 👍🏻🏴
Mad River Outfitters I live in England and only recently took up fly fishing and your channel has really helped me! Even though we’re on different continents your channel has helped a complete novice like me to the sport, so for that I say, cheers mate!
I just found your you tube channel and i havent been fushing in years now that in retired and i found my late fathers fly fishing rid and reel i (fenwick 6' and a darwin reel) want to try it again thank you for the information i will be watching
I remember my dad mentioned he wanted to go fly fishing at one point, but since he’s passed, I’ve really considered going upstate NY (another thing he wanted to again) so I think I’ll be heading up there sometime soon. Try out some trout fishing with a fly-fishing rod or something.
Mad River Outfitters will definitely have to buy a rod or see if anybody can rent one out up there, but I’d rather have my own. Might just end up loving the whole thing, even if I’m not a big fisherman myself
Love the videos, well produced and great content! Minor annoyance, but the "Getting Started in Fly Fishing" playlist is ordered backwards. Thanks for the videos guys!
I'm new to fly fishing. Your fly fishing video series has/is very helpful. Could you suggest a entry level rod/reel combo, either something you put together or a pre-packaged outfit. THANKS!
i got a Redington classic trout 4wt 8ft. with the echo base reel 4/5 wt, i will be kayak fishing or ponds, some river fishing, also some reservoir bank fishing, should i use 4 or 5wt line?
Can I ask about rod selection you spoke. At the moment I'm spinning but really want to try fly. You mentioned that for beginner ideal rod is 9ft 6-8wt. Just wondering would I be able to fish in a loch wit 9ft rod? Or do I need longer rod if fishing from bank to be able to cast far? In my fishing club there is a good loch with trouts, also few rivers with trouts and salmon. Just wondering what should be my choice? Thanks
I just got my first fly fishing outfit today and surprising I'm casting decently but some problems I'm having are distance and the lead always comes back to the fly line so it's a straight cast and then at the end with the leader it circles over itself. I'm not getting tangled it just doesnt all lay straight. How can I fix that? Also how can I get more distance?
Getting a kid involved in fly fishing or any sport for that matter is a lot less expensive than multiple bouts of rehab and stolen items they sell from your house to fuel their addictions.
No matter how much I watch these fishing tutorials…no matter how hard I try these techniques…it turns out that every spot every river I try there is absolutely no fish to catch at all…I should just give up fishing..😢
You forgot to mention that you need a minimum of level 20 fishing.
RedX1000 Uh....no idea what that even means.
It's a reference to the game Runescape. In the game, to do fly fishing, you need a certain fishing level, which is 20, to catch trouts.
RedX1000 so not a realistic game. 😉
@@Madriveroutfitters lol not really. The amount of fish caught in the game, if it was realistic, you'd replace the water with just seas and rivers of fish and that's it.
It's more Mideval than anything.
Where I really heard of fly fishing 07 runescape or osrs loll
"you need some water, and it'd be awesome if there was some fish in that water, it'll help you out a bunch"... Hilarious dry humor
It's true though eh?
@@Madriveroutfitters 100%! ... An often overlooked component.
Sounded like wet humor to me. Ha
@@Totaro17 solid
That was awesome. Yes it definitely helps if there's fish in the water your fishing 🤣

Not sure. Suppose it doesn't need to be that big?
Hey I know where theres water with fish in it!
Devin Bray That is a BIG part of any fishing!!
I brought a bucket of water with fish in it but it didn't help me catch anything
Keep practicing?
If it swims you can catch it... catches the kraken on a grasshopper
