Some cracking brownies there mate I'll be over for a holiday defo 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇳🇿

Thanks for the informative post. Have just tied my first 4 PTs using your vid. First one took over an hour! Was too loose to start then broke the thread twice, then tangled the pheasant tail and the thread and had to work backwards to clear the mess! Now it only takes 10 mins and looks better each time!

Hi there. Can I ask What weight mono are you fishing? I lost a lot of fish on 6lb and wondered if you are also fishing similar weight line. Thank you.

Awesome thanks

Very good video thanks.

Good video! I guided in Alaska in the late 80s and this is when I first started tying glowballs..I really liked it when you said there is a difference between a good glowball and a 'shit' glowball! Made me laugh because you are so right! All of us that were guiding were trying to tye the perfect glowball and it was amazing the effort we were putting into this..We finally got it right, I feel. I think the perfect glow ball is one that is somewhat dense like yours, top and bottom. We didnt use the glue underneath, we flipped the fly and tyed another small piece of glowball yarn in and cut. Also today I think I would try the gps threads in 30 or 50 denier..Liked your hack with the thread on the bobbin, I'll have to try that! Thanks!

Great fish and a lovely river

Thanks! Awesome presentation

Terrible casting and bad line control quite shocking really

That when a soft bait would come in handy when like that it's a shame it's only fly rod only when you should be able to take both on the water silly if you ask me but that's NZ regulations for ya lols blame the net 😂good on ya mate cheers for the video

you still making videos?

Are you making anymore vids bro ?

Nice

The Gum Beetle I have heard is a pretty popular fly in parts of New Zealand. Could you tie a couple of versions of their life cycle for us please.??

Hey, I'm looking to do a hike / fishing trip in the north island. Ideally hike up a river and camp in a hut or doco site, fishing along the way. Do you have any recommendations. Potentially even helicopter in, walk out. Cheers

going to give this a crack.

Love the content.

Hi whar size is the Primal rod you use? Thanks John

the most snaggy frigging river I have ever fished, but also one of the most enjoyable. Lovely Kiwi spot, I haven't lived in NZ for 20+ years but this video makes me miss it - love the Hatepe :-)

Great video.. pro tips right there 📸👍😎

Monster hooks on tiny eggs? I wonder about: why does everyone on KZbin use these monster big hooks for these small, tiny eggs? They disturb the smootness of the eggs surface and tend to snag on the bottom. I prefer to mount two windings of Lead wire on a bent hook size 16, so the egg will almost completely hide the tiny hook. The lead will position the hook to guarantee a upright Position in water , which counts for less snagging- its mostly forgotten, that the physics , weight and streaming behavior of Flies in the water is crucial for successful tackle.

No problems pulling the Strike Indicator through the eyes of the rod when fishing shallow??? Thx for information!!

I have fished that exact spot where you were at the start of video and hooked a beautiful trout

That not it

Some donkies in here mate. Solid video

Most exciting thing I've ever seen. Such much action that it's like watching the Superbowl. 😂

That was a mean as video bro. Is this up past the hatcheries?

Thanks mate

Good vids. Been awhile though - taken a sabbatical?

Very nice fishing mate,is that a primal raw 6 weight rod?seems to cast nicely, cheers Tim

Great content thanks bro! Tight loops! 🤘🏻

Awesome! Looking forward to my trip from Oz mainland next March! Love the quick releases; well done!

awesome video.

Good stuff. I want to get a bit into fly tying myself. That would be a good simple fly to get started. Keep those fly tying vids coming.

Hello

Nice bro! You could get that done pretty quick if you wanted too and a good generic

Wow...that's all I can say. Love watching you guys in NZ catch those monsters. I am all in to see what you do in 2021. I supersub'd which means I clicked everything ! Please check out what we do at Overland Pacific Northwest.

Hi Phil, nice bit of back country river, good choice in your presentation. We have been fishing the T in a few pools below the Blue and found that the naturals in #14 are taking quite well but the wind is very gusty. Tight lines, see you on the river. Harera

Awesome vid man!!!

Awesome just subbed. tight lines!
