Appreciated the interviews w the ranch pioneers!

Only $1,000 US a day.

“Best to practice your pickup-lay down on a river when the water is flowing down stream”? Great video

At around 10 minutes, just as he enters the “casting lab”, he’s talking about translation and rotation during the cast while the guy in the background is casting with 100% (maybe 97%) rotation of his wrist and nearly no translation. Quoting “Hugh”, “There are no rules in fly fishing”

DWR should be avoided at all cost. They are from "forever chemicals" and we do not want to put more of it into our environment. Thank you.

I don't think many trout can survive in this river. They have stocked more than 20,000 trout every year for more than 30 years already, but it is still very hard to catch a decent size one. A good time to fish there is after opener they just released the stocking trout. Those little fish are eagerly eating dry fly. Just bring a 2wt or 3wt fly rod with couple dry fly you will have a lot of fun. Don't expect to catch a big one unless you want to bet your luck.

Thanks, I always learn something from your videos.

Fantastic education.

Fantastic explanation & informational video Simon 🎣🙂🎣. On fishing nymphing 😊

If heaven doesn’t have the destinations of the NFF, I’m not going!

Would all be so much simpler using a light lure rod, mono or braid and a spinning reel 😂

Where do you buy those tarpon poppers

I was always taught not to bend my wrist when casting.

Wicked awesome I have fished the aroostook river on the New Brunswick border and some of the trout I’ve pulled out of there is incredible

why the women talkin so much 😂

Good episode, love sight fishing, and pike can be a blast.

the carp fishing is amazing in fergus, i guess the trout are also cool

HAHAH "Catching trout.... is fun." That blooper killed me for some reason. Love the video and the bloopers. Glad you all don't take yourselves too seriously. Getting out to the beautiful views and enjoying yourself is the best part. Catching a fish is incidental at that point.

Sunday 4/28/2024 - Michigan trout opener this coming weekend (Saturday). My buddy is working so we delayed it a week. 25+ years. Same guys. Same jokes. We fish the small streams. If we catch 2 or 3 8-inchers (or better), it's a good weekend. But, several years ago, at another stream, on the trout closer, we slayed the brookies (a catch of about a dozen 10-12" brookies amongst three of us). One of these years (before I die), I want to hit N. Ontario or Newfoundland & Labrador. Great video. Thank you. sw

Nice video Bill 🎣 😃. I get the same problem. Salmon fishing with 8/9 wht , then going trout fishing with 3/4 wht 🤪 .

❤😂很棒的課程介紹!

Is it just me or is this channel unable to show the hookup?

I watched a video of The New Fly Fisher at the Palisade Lodge in Victor Idaho but I can't find that video. The guide explained the new system of trout catch and release to get the native cutthroats back. A thing was put in the hybrid trout nose and if you caught one of those they would mail you a check. There was no limit on hybrid,browns or rainbows. Great video but when I went back to the KZbin link it was a different video. I hope this rings a bell.

more like a 2 out of 10, seemed like another client, but one of those guys with no skill trying to be a know it all big shot. i loved how gill pointed out what a real guide actually does.

Great Video. I would like to use your video in my digital magazine if it is OK. I think it's OK to use youtube videos but always like to ask. It would be embedded in the magazine. Thanks

Great watch and awesome fishing! 🔥🎣

It was opening day yesterday here in Michigan and I had some issues. I've moved to a new area due to work and had to change my whole technique due to no open rivers or streams. This video has given me some new ideas that I'll try today, thanks.

❤❤好课程，謝謝你

Just epic Phil. The destinations, the videography, the fishing insights, the drone footage etc etc. Thank you for these videos!

get the fish on the reel!!!! its a lot more fun....

Great Job by all on this fishery. Thanks to all the Volunteers, Educators, Students and Anglers! Very special place...

People that care for the health of native waters DON'T dump invasive species in them. That's literally the opposite of conservation.

Hi, it was so nice to see that someone took the trouble to mow the grass on the bank of the river and get rid of all the bushes behind you. I learned this casting technique by placing a bucket on the Army parade ground and casting from the edge into the bucket. The way to do it in most rivers is to hold three or five loops in your left hand and cast with your right hand whilst standing in the river waist deep. Get the picture? Cheers mate. Harera

Got my first steelhead today!

It’s funny when a pro suggests a guide for fishery I’ve been fishing alone since I was 12 (long before Canada’s ridiculous 16+ boating laws and boater safety cards).

Watching this video brings back a lot of fun memories. When I coal mining in Montana I would fish that river around 100 days a year. Wish I was still there

What month did you go fishing for it

Wishing I was trouting today😢

Friends of the Grand are good people. Thanks a million for your work!

Anybody else totally lost on the English in the video description?

Barbless is an absolute winner in my book. You will hook yourself at some point, no matter the skill level! Besides, the survival rate for catch and release is better, when combined with best practices of fish handeling, or rather, the lack of handeling. Tight lines! :)

Perfect day for this video! Happy trout opener!

Opening Day in Ontario here on the Grand and instead of battling the heavy showers this morning, I'm fishing with vicariously with Bill and Rob and Mike et al!

I look st this episode with new fondness. I broke a bone in my ankle so I am looking for easy wading rivers. Also due to the warming of waters, it is imparative to protect the habitat and environment. Great to show the Friends of the Grand and work they do.

Cool video. Love seeing a community come together!

Poor jack hahaha

Such an enthusiastic and softly-spoken instructor. Brilliant video Mister!

2:10 this advice is so underrated and unless you enjoy lots of extra knot tying, just look behind and above you 🤣😉

I would like to say to everyone who say those are not steelhead, I would say when steelhead were implanted in grate lakes years ago at what point did they cease to be steelhead and pacific salmon cease to be salmon just because they have introduced into the great lakes?
