I WILL BE BACK FOR GOLIATH!! I didn't mention that the water levels have dropped off in that creek which is why I'm not fishing for Goliath right now. Thank you to everyone for the support! I'll revisit him in due time.

Ruminating on your supposed fails to catch goliath...you could widen your focus. Sitting and observing those ghost-like trout strike from under a log or overhang rock...seeing the feeding activity, studying the cloud cover/rain, pace of a riffle, impacting the catch...is an overwhelming Zen experience. You're very articulate...lucky to know these unspoiled creeks. Even though the big ones evaded you...can you dwell on those exquisite moments...no planes, honks, sirens, doors slamming ad nauseum. You got skunked...but look what at the rich catch you went home with. Smiles.

Don’t delete your “failures.” It really is part of the learning process. My brothers and I fished a trophy stream last week in Colorado and I was the only one that caught anything. I felt bad for them but I decided that it really is about all the fish that I haven’t caught or lost that has taught me so much and had a lot to do with my success. Keep up the good work. I look forward to the next video!

I grew up in the Shenandoah Valley in Staunton Virginia, and fished for native brookies most if my life. The memories of those days will live with me forever . I was lucky to catch 2 11.5 " fish the same day . I tell people all the time there are three things I was lucky enough to do with my dad that will never be the same . They are native fishing, grouse hunting , and ginseng huntining . Your video was awesome . You are making memories that will last a lifetime, enjoy the journey.

In all my years of fishing in general, 40+ of them to be exact. I’ve learned that it is nice to catch that big fish. But what I truly realized is that it is the experience is what truly matters most. The experience is having the opportunity to be out there learning from your mistakes and then growing by not making those mistakes anymore. With time you will forget about the mistakes you have made and eventually will make them again. Not all of them but some. That’s why I love fly fishing so much. It is never ending when it comes to learning. The day you believe you have mastered this sport will be the day it will humble you. For me, my home waters are in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is by far the most difficult place to fish that I have personally experienced. The learning curve is never ending. A buddy of mine has been fishing there since the 70’s, before I was even born. He has kept a log for each day he has went out. The PDF is massive. But on any given day he can tell you everything he did on that day from years past. And after writing all of this he is still learning. Never stop trying to learn when it comes to fly fishing. Enjoy the moment and what ever you do, don’t take it for granted. Also, when you planning on fishing the Smokies again?

I always believe that the chase can be as exciting as actually landing the fish and sometimes it just doesn't happen but you are 'older and wiser' as a result of the experience. Truly great video.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this series! There are no trout within hundreds of miles of where I live but I've always wanted to fish for them. Thank you for keeping and posting these. My thinking is that this was in no way a failure but more class time for when you next go after him or other fish. I envy you, or anyone who is fortunate enough to have such beautiful water to fish, most creeks around me are #1 off limits unless you happen to belong to a hunting club that has the land they're on leased. Or #2 muddy and the banks are too steep to walk. Or #3 very very limited access (see#1). There is one that has access under a bridge and I fish it a couple of times a year from a pirogue (giving hints as to the state I live in) and usually have multiple fallen trees to deal with in short distances. It is loaded with largemouth and spotted bass and a lot of fun to fish but can at times be more like work to fish than fun. This was a relaxing video series to watch, thank you for bringing us along.

I totally agree with Minty!! Don't tell your spots like this. Sad but people will go and catch, and keep these fish. I still have a few spots like this, and are awesome!! I'm somewhat older than you, but as a kid growing up here in the Appalachian Mt's, every small stream had native brookies. Now lucky to find any of them. My biggest to date is a 12'' native, and boy was I routing for you to catch that monster, because like you I know he would of been released.. I hope you go back for him, and share photos.

This has been a really exceptional little series. As others have correctly noted, you have told a compelling narrative. Your experience of that creek, and your quest, have been very effectively conveyed. Can there, will there be a Goliath 3? I’ll keep coming back to find out, that’s for sure! Another thing that’s for sure? I bet there are a lot of us who hope your secret stream can remain so forever. And I hope lots of younger anglers who subscribe to your excellent channel will have a Goliath of their own to pursue someday - and, more importantly, a stream they will want to guard, cherish and protect. You’re doing some amazing work. I, for one, am very grateful for your efforts.

There will 100% be a Goliath Part 3! But I probably won't head back until early fall when we get some more water in the creeks and the brook trout start moving up to get ready for pre spawn. I have only told my brother about the creek, and since it is in the middle of nowhere if anyone else finds it will be by accident. I am glad you have enjoyed the videos!

Back in 1994 I was fishing a native brook trout stream in PA and hooked a 12 incher my friend was fishing upstream from me when I heard him scream for me to come to him. So I trecked up to his hole and to my disbelief was a 17 inch native Brookie. Out from under a log. Unfortunately the stream has changed bc of a flood and that hole is now dried up. But I get the excitement. It's so exciting.

I was up Northern PA about a month ago I was going back through all my footage and I just realized a few days ago why the fish were taking the names that I was using so it took me a month to figure out why they were hitting that color I’m going back through my footage and seeing some things and it was because of what was hatching and what color the eggs were and I didn’t realize it at the time I was on the water. So even though we think we know we learned along the way. Excellent job man

Creek fishing is where it is at in my opinion. the lakes are all tainted. most county water lakes and streams are tainted. you got to get away from those places and go where no one goes because it aint easy. that's why I like your videos.

Love your videos! It’s obvious you put a ton of time and effort into them. Fishing isn’t always about winning, there are ups and downs, but in the end it’s what you learn and being humbled by the experience that makes you a better fisherman. I think these type of videos make you more authentic. The one thing as a fisherman that I would love to see and I think would benefit your channel is to take the extra 5-10 seconds to actually show and explain exactly what size leader or tippet, especially what fly or nymph your using, the size and whatnot instead of saying nymph or dry fly etc.

I live in Colorado and have some beaver ponds I go into and catch up to 2 1/2 lb native brookies in. They're very weary and shidish but a lot of fun.

Great video! We learn from the mistakes much more than instant success. Being able to recognize our errors makes us better.(As long as we retain in our mind the "mistakes" we make). Only have fished brookies twice. My biggest was a fluke of 12 3/4. Keep up the fantastic videos. New subscriber here.

Hike up to the los pinos in the weminuche wilderness in Colorado. About a 6 mile hike but I caught 20 brook trout over 14inches. Wish I could post the pictures.

You'll return and take another shot at him. Once it's in your blood, it's tough to get out. I'm headed to the northern part of the state this weekend as well, chasing Brookies. Thanks for the video.

I believe that mushroom shot in the intro is an agarikon if I’m not mistaken. Those are very rare and have tremendous health benefits. Some of them can be hundreds of years old.

I don't think it is an agarikon just because I'm in the eastern US. But I could be wrong because I'm definitely not a mushroom expert by any means.

I have a stream in my backyard, full of native brook trout. They’re somewhat easy to catch, especially in autumn when there are no bugs out. The average size of them is about 6 - 9 inches, sometimes you can get lucky and get a 10 + incher. One evening after a rainstorm, I caught an 11 inch female native brookie, which is now the record. But I’m still out there, trying to catch the 15 incher that is potentially out there!

But my biggest brook trout I’ve caught period, I caught it this year, it was 13 inches, but I caught it in a different river, now we’re looking for a taxidermist for it!

Raining on and off?-----perfect for trout fishin as they become much more active in that type of weather. Those are native brookies and quite simply the most beautiful fish on the planet and go good with eggs. Yep, trout and eggs man!

Is it not the reality for most fishermen that the fish of their lives escapes and is never heard of again? I will never forget the incredible monster of a Brown Trout that I hooked two feet from shore and I could hardly hold for ages. when it was finally tired it escaped a yard away from me: The very solid hook was twisted and straightened nearly completely so the fish escaped at the very end. Unfortunately I could not find out how long and heavy it was. It was so huge that I thought I had hooked a log for several seconds. The red dots it had were as big as a penny!

always interesting to me that in america you would call a char (salvelinus, saibling) a trout, because it isn´t a trout.
