Big Smallies on the fly

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Epic fishing!

[@euqnoj1]

What type of flies worked for them. I'm in Idaho this week and we have a couple spots for smallies that we've targeted with tube jigs in the past. Any patterns you recommend?

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

@@euqnoj1 We caught them on big streamers, poppers and hopper patterns.

Sir, I have watched a lot more of your videos than I comment on. I really enjoyed watching you two in this video. I am blessed with a wife who loves to fish as much as me as well. We have been kayak fishing for over a decade together and love each and every trip we take. We have been as far north as Colorado fly fishing up in the small lakes out of our kayaks to all over Oklahoma, the state I grew up in, and now living in far East Texas. Fun Times and it's fun to see you two having as much fun as we doo. Keep up the fun videos sir. Dale

Schultzy is one the best guides I ever fished with. He has an awesome shop. They are a number one group of fly fishers.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Yeah they are top notch for sure!

[@johnpetsch5202]

Yeah! Alvin and Schultzy!!!!!

[@AtypicalOutdoors]

Such an epic adventure, and beautiful location.

[@dustinhinds1999]

Just got back from Michigan chasing smallmouth. Cool you got to hook up with the Schultzy crew! Great group of guys, and an awesome shop.

[@KamSitton]

Great guide work. Awesome seeing a guide willing to get out of the boat to make sure the fish gets netted

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Schultzy is pretty awesome.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Can't wait!

[@jodysaffels3937]

Awesome stuff, had the opportunity to spend a year up there for work. SE Michigan is a special place for smallies. Thankful I had the opportunity to go there, learn a new game, and spend quality time at a great shop! Lookin forward to seeing more content from you sir!

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Thanks for watching!

[@articchar-lf]

[@Catch_and_Release_Angling]

Great timing! I just caught my pb smallie on the fly yesterday out of a small creek. The big ones put up such a great fight.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

They sure do!

[@euqnoj1]

Love it! I will be up there week after next and will look them up!

[@euqnoj1]

I vote for more video like this!

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

You will enjoy it.

[@andrewbyers2752]

Awesome video! Going north in a few weeks to chase smallies in Indiana. Hoping for tight lines!

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Good luck!

[@georgefitzhugh6455]

It’s probably the Huron River. Can’t go wrong fishing with Mike! Welcome to Detroit Michigan.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Yeah Mike is the man!

[@charlieboutin3341]

Awesome trip with awesome fish! Thanks for taking us along! I’ve been fishing near Fredericksburg recently, and caught some largemouth lunkers (5-7lbs) on your Dedeaux Snakes both white and black colors, and lost a big hawg (7#?) on a green Dedeaux popper yesterday evening..I’ll be going back🙂. Heading to Corpus Christi for a week..tied up some Clousers and Shrimp imitations. Hopefully I’ll catch my first saltwater fish on a fly.🤞Appreciate all you share and do Alvin! Thanks a lot! 👍👌✌️🎣

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Glad to help!

[@billemshoff9335]

Awesome!

[@emanonrm824]

After watching your video, had to stop in and give their shop a once over. Didn't know there was a fly shop in Ypsilanti. Had one if the staff pick me out some 🪰 he would fish. We will see how it turns out, thanks for sharing your experience.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Glad to help you hook up!

[@andrewj.karaffa7080]

Is that the ausable in Michigan?

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

I don't think so. We hit a bunch of rivers but I don't think that was one of them.

[@kentyler966]

Hey Al-De, ever hear of a little old place over here in Wisconsin called Sturgeon Bay? Might be worth your time to check us out. Lots of chunky butt kicking Smallmouth. World class. Guy in Wisconsin if your interested, Larry Smith. Has a weekly TV show.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

I'll check it out!

[@mikebbb30]

Killer, Alvin! Was there a specific fly on the trip that seemed to really get it done?

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

We caught them on a bunch of different patters. Big streamers in the big or muddy stuff. Poppers and hopers in the smaller clearer water.

[@jeffdurocher8669]

Great video, what flies and size? Any crawfish flies used?

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

We caught them on a bunch of different patters. Big streamers in the big or muddy stuff. Poppers and hopers in the smaller clearer water. We didn't use any crawfish patterns. I saw a few in the rivers though,

@@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing thanks, just getting into the fly thing and curious.
