Being from Michigan I feel like I owe it to the fish that was brought here from your tributaries to go to their wild waters if not to fish at least see them . I’ve only got one fish here this winter on the swing, it’s been tough . The knowledge you guys have is amazing and I could listen to you for days Ps I know most PNW anglers don’t think Great Lakes fish are steelhead . I promise they are , they look and act just like ocean steelhead.

This guy steelheads. I love the implied sentiments about flyfishing culture 😅. Swung fly steelheading is its own thing as far as I'm concerned. I love to see someone else out on the river yarding on their fish. There are SO many guys who are in love with "the culture" around fishing, yet are standing in a 70 degree river fishing a 5wt using light tippet fighting fish until they are dead so they can post a picture on their facebook. Completely missing the point.

This could be so much better without the curseing

What a wonderful film! The remarks about the culture of fly fishing are so profound and deeply felt, and unpretentiously expressed.

Awesome interview…as good as they get!

Awesome video! So happy I stumbled upon it 😃

Once salmon always salmon not sure why people are so crazy about steal head try Atlantic salmon fishing !!

You are living a life i would like to try living you are good man to listen to and watch sneet fishing movie

Agree! More from Bruce! Really fantastic descriptions!

I strictly spey fish salt water surf, i can't do any traditional techniques. Have to use the double haul without hauling with the hands, i can send out 100' and flip a heavy fly pretty much anywhere i want, and i was surprised how accurate i have become. And i cant fish all day as whit my single handed im done after 1hr because my shoulders are done fighting the louisiana cost winds.

Good looking Fj, mine is white also.

Great stuff

great video of one of the nicest fly shop in the vancouver area !!

good stuff !

Love the passion

29:35 The torpedo line is a 1950's line, not 1800's. The English didn’t use 12’ rods and short/fat lines in the 1800s. This is completely wrong and nobody ever wrote that.

awesome, just awesome

thanks Bruce for getting me in the game and giving me so many lessons. Steelheading with a long line here on the Skeena, but love the long line. Chances are waaaayyyyyy against me in April, but a chance nonetheless . . . I get that some don't get that.

Awesome!

This series is so well done. Such a pleasure to watch!

Super vid. MG what a gem this channel. You are gifted in creating beautiful vids. Should have gone to bed hours ago cant stop :P

Wow Travis your def of the culture of flyfishing m8 that was spot on and very deap at the same time love it. Certainly for me that is true. Very beautiful vid my friend thx for sharing cool music too 😊

His definition of the culture of fly fishing gave me chills.

I wanna fish with you Travis.

What a wonderful video. Nicely done!

Something about seeing your home water while watching an awesome video that gets you really excited about swinging flies for steelhead. Great shit, thanks.

Wonderful! Thanks for the great discussion …

hahaha, when i tried to show Mr. Kruk something real new to learn, I got blocked and hated on. Bla bla bla learning from everyone? surely not this old guy anymore

Awesome video. To the question "if you had to fish only one fly, which one...", John Gierach had the best answer ever: "I wouldn't fish."!

Thank you for this🙏🏼👊🏼

This is fantastic

Awesome!

This is epic!!! Thanks and best...pops

We share many of the same common interests. This video makes me feel like I was standing there with you. Well done!

More of this please ☝️

Great video Ryan. World's best store right in the heart of Surrey, BC!

Mastery involves a clearer and clearer understanding of what matters. This is such great instruction!

You understand the pricing of Fly tying stuff much better. Good Video.

Great video Kirk!

Great film, Ryan’s one of the best in the industry

Awesome episode! Really enjoyed this one

Really enjoyed that and a great guy to have on the channel.

Great job Ryan. Good to see ya behind the lens 👍🏻

Something is wrong with music? Interfearing with interview and plus video shrinked in the middle

Would like to see a video of them bone fishing.

Absolutely stunning. A great interview James encapsulating the essence of this journey we call flyfishing.

Beautiful portrait of the man who's made the rods of mine which give me so much joy and pleasure to fish and own; someday very soon I'll make that Mecca trip to see him again in that workshop where all those marvels start and finish.

Truly J.M. Reid. The black and white couldn't be more fitting for this chapter. Great work guys!
