A Wilderness Fishing and Camping experience like no other! p20

In the late summer of 2022, I lived off the grid for 9 weeks exploring and fly fishing some of the west's most remote streams. I recorded every day and started sharing my 9-week truck bed camping road trip after I returned home in mid-October. In part 20, I've driven to this wilderness stream and will spend the next 3 days truck camping in paradise. The fishing is epic!
I started my 9 week road trip on July 31, 2022, and spent roughly 3 weeks in WY, ID and MT. Check out all the videos from this trip in the playlist linked below:

Man O' Man, I remember those good old days fumbling around in my Fj80 , being bounced around like a sardine, trying to read coffee and grit stained wrinkled national forest service and logging maps. Those were some hair raising rides straddling serpentine cliff hangers, riding the forever land wash boards. Those obscure pot holes were killer on my suspension and the occasional submerged boulder lurked below the mud holes. It was so worth the efforts, fixing flat tires, dirty finger nails and fish fingers. Can't wait to do it again this coming summer . Thanks Drew for letting me tag along through What a great place!

[@LooknFishy]

I dig the drives and exploring as much as the fishing! It's exhilarating!

[@PaulRowan]

@@LooknFishy absolutely, 10-4 indeed indeed. Man your hitting some of my holes from way back, glad you are on it, doing it!

[@stevebahl6835]

That spot would be hard to leave with that beautiful scenery and quality trout! Memories for life I'd say! Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@jeffrey4869]

Drew, you're living the dream! You're blessed. I haven't seen you catch even one small trout. That one cutthroat at 10:20 was a real beauty! Love your videos.

[@LooknFishy]

Was a good trip!

[@ryantherock7664]

From following your whole journey id say Idaho has the prettiest water and scenery

[@stapfomat]

That is one awesome evening rise right in front of the camping spot👌🏼✌🏼🔥

[@LooknFishy]

Perfect ending!

[@streamsidedrifter]

These videos are helping with my winter blues haha! Hope you’ve got plenty more coming! 🎣

[@LooknFishy]

Got 20 or so more to edit from this trip lol!

[@streamsidedrifter]

@@LooknFishy I figured you’d have plenty of footage! Looking forward to it.

Thank u!

[@strikef16falcon58]

Wow, what a fantastic location to fish.

[@michaelcapurso]

Gorgeous location

[@paulmanzone8373]

My faith restored!! I really didn't believe there were wild trout in creeks and streems left in the United States. Thank you

[@SuperGed777]

Drew, you are living every trout fisher’s dream. Thanks for sharing!

[@mikemurphy2764]

What a stunning camping spot. Beautiful stream.

[@diegohuc7117]

How cool was that?!!! That must have been one of your top 5 best camping spots and fishing you had so far!!! How fun!!!

[@LooknFishy]

Absolutely was...stream was amazing!

[@jbeavers151]

My hero! Love watching your videos!

[@jimgollach6202]

That was definitely to cool. Now that's what I call a four star diner with a view.

[@LooknFishy]

Absolutely!

[@13jonnyray]

That fishing at the very end was crazy. Thanks for sharing!!

[@uni_shadow164]

Wow Drew, that last spot with the rising fish pool. OMG what camp spot. It had some big fish too...Great job!

[@rustyrodgarage2686]

Dang,that 2nd camp spot was awesome.come on summer!

[@Mntnere]

Always look forward to your travels and flyfishing videos. Good to watch when I can't go. Keep it up and stay safe ,enjoy

[@desertbrewcrew1974]

I love the endings where you show the next episode. Like the old tv shows. Great video

[@nialllittle3820]

You know you are teasing everyone of us when you post these videos 😅

[@edmiller4149]

Nice spot you found! Great site and…….terrific fishin’. You da man, Drew.

[@philliplawson2932]

[@morepork559]

I can almost smell the fresh air! Damn, you're lucky, Drew!

[@LooknFishy]

Can't wait to get back!

[@billanderson5078]

What an awesome stream

[@mikerawls9619]

Once again great video Drew.

[@scottrick5190]

Great day, beautiful stream and awesome fish, congrats!

[@williampacey9194]

Glad you moved the first spot made me uneasy. Tree’s falling on the truck not a good time. Nice fishing.

[@heppisaxm8316]

Super fishing,super mister,nice vidio.

[@LooknFishy]

Thank ya!

[@bobmcglone6676]

Nice job. Great video. Thank you.

[@wherethefishare]

Is this a designated Wilderness ? Some good sized fish for those creeks. Glad you had a good time.

[@christinebradley3306]

Love your videos! You caught some beautiful fish. Pretty much the only flyfishing videos I watch. What an exciting life.

[@LooknFishy]

Much appreciated!

[@Mike-tf9rx]

The fishings like that anywhere in Montana. All 2 days of summer.

[@jimpyle560]

Prime real estate. Stunning stuff.

[@LooknFishy]

Definitely one I'll see again!

[@mikemcgrath7280]

Beautiful I could live in that spot plenty of downed trees to start building the cabin🙂

[@LooknFishy]

Truth!

[@darrellloftin1466]

wow so cool

[@garyrafferty7625]

What a way to end your day. That's only happened to me twice in 25+ years of camping and fishing where I found a spot ... lightly used ... where I could catch sizeable fish a short walk from my camp spot. Two thumbs up Drew!

[@LooknFishy]

Yep, not something I've had happen much either. Definitely a sign if a low pressured area!

[@matthewhixson3735]

Drew, awesome "2nd" campsite location. Pulled a nice whale outa that meat hole! Great video.

[@RoarIrish]

Hey Drew, have you discussed anywhere your preferred setup for bear spray/firearm, when and where you do/don't carry either/both, or preferred caliber, barrel length, holster etc? That would be interesting from a general tips kind of video

[@rockingeadventures4558]

Thanks Drew, I needed this today. ✌️

[@peredavi]

Nice. I’m planning a few trips from Wyoming this July-Sept. in my FourWheel camper and my German shorthairs. Hopeful we’ll also get some points on grouse.

[@jonathanm9793]

When I see the straight drop off to the right, I feel a little anxious! lol ...loving your content Drew! Can't wait for some nice fishing weather here in Ohio! 10:45 nice fish!!

[@sirwinston2368]

Yeah it was!

[@LooknFishy]

Thank u!

[@jamesjacobson3966]

Man those were some nice fish from such skinny water at the start of the video! Must be a ton of feed in that creek? Would love to see you turn some rocks over to see what’s lurking in there.

[@DGaydon]

Yup, 2nd campsite was much better 🤣 Rising 16"+ cutties! Edit : Whoa your move was smart. Just watched the latest Wild Fly video and they had a deadfall tree take out one of their tents during a storm while they were fishing. Will definitely be checking my camp sites for dead trees going forward...

[@boxingstarcmbballer8797]

I’d love to pull up to a big hole like that with trout hungry everywhere 😂 trout were rising while you were reeling in the big one lol they didn’t even care .

[@LooknFishy]

Great way to end a day!

[@N_Patil80]

Saw that deer jump across the creek. Around 2 mins. Nice ..

[@Mike-tf9rx]

Looks like Mt. Your video says 13 days ago. My ass it's still winter. Feb. 10 ft of snow on those mtns. Very cold. Bs. And the trees always creek and squeek. Welcome to Mt

[@scottnock5241]

Dang!! They were some strong cuts!!! That looked amazing!! Super fun!!! Great move on that camp spot trees are bad!!! Did you see the Wild Fly guys camp got crushed by trees!!! Never camp by dead trees…. Question have you ever had to use your bear spray???

[@LooknFishy]

Down trees or damaged ones are the first things I look for. I guess that's the benefit of getting old lol

[@WesternDriven406]

Hope you got your truck serviced after this trip 😂

[@rgt321]

Wow drew nice! Hey do you air down your tires at all going down those forest roads?

[@LooknFishy]

I keep them at 25 psi. They ride good at that psi w/o losing too much clearance plus heat up to 30 psi on the improved roads...so I don't have to constantly adjust.

[@rgt321]

@@LooknFishy gotcha thanks

[@thecuriousvida]

Very nice! How confident did you feel about the bear spray especially with the way the wind gets? Or did you carry while you were out there too?

[@LooknFishy]

I'm always armed when I'm out. Never know what you might run into. Spray is a good first choice but definitely has limitations so my sidearm is my secondary.

[@thecuriousvida]

@@LooknFishy Agree 100%!! Great videos take care bud! I'm going to go find these spots this summer 🤠

[@oncorclarki1965]

It appears that the cutthroat at 10:44 has a missing gill plate. Curious if you are seeing that often in your travels? There's a school of thought (rightly or wrongly) up in here in BC that missing gill plates is caused by selenium exposure resulting from coal mining operations. But I would be surprised if there is a coal mine in the headwaters of that stream.

[@LooknFishy]

Interesting...that was the only one I remember but I'll pay more attention in the future.

[@robroy4406]

Nice video, just subbed.

[@randymatson5710]

Man that's a cool spot drew. Do you take a chain saw with you on your trips in case you get trapped by a dead fall?

[@LooknFishy]

Been on my list for 2 years but keep talking myself out of it. Definitely would if I lived out west.

[@lyndonfish6229]

How do you know that no one is coming down that same road from the other direction? Did not look like a lot of room to turn around, and backing out would be a pain.

[@LooknFishy]

No way...but I look for pullouts so I know how far I need to go back jic!

[@rodritchison1995]

I just need to know how much you had to pay the fish at the second site for their acting stint. Jump out of the water, look pretty, make my heart flutter.

[@LooknFishy]

I have no idea...my talent scouts book all the actors!

[@fisherbryan381]

Inappropriate goblin emote please !!!!

This is a weird. I did not type this. Lol. Sorry. But it showed up when you liked it.

[@docdune]

northern... on google maps there is a car parked at this camping site.

[@goldenbear8250]

@@docdune In the panhandle?

[@dneitzel772]

Do you have a chainsaw in the pickup?

[@billlynn8256]

I was just going to ask the same question...

[@LooknFishy]

Been meaning to get an electric one for 2 years but keep finding other things I want...until I get in the mountains and remember why I need one lol!

[@bryandold2290]

Get a Sven saw. Small and compact. Manual though.
