Catching Huge Trout in ULTRA clear water!

[@SeanCleverly]

Mate the river, the scenery, those fish, wow. What i wouldn't give to fish some of those N.Z rivers, just absolutely magic.

[@craigvertigan1317]

I know that river. I have been there twice and that clear water, cute bridges and monster trout are unforgettable. I saw a few fish that looked to be between 15 & 20lb. But only managed to catch smaller models of around 3 to 5lb. Thanks for sharing. It brought back some great memories.

[@5elevenfirewood195]

Don't you love how monster fish make you forget all your technique and skill, it turns into survival mode😂

[@Fishball0423]

Best fly fishing channel for me. The scenery is perfect.

[@robertbekkers9145]

Really enjoyed this vid. The combination of the crystal clear water, monster brownies and your dedication to the chase was awesome!

[@michaelfisk2912]

Thanks for your reply on language, we absolutely will be watching your videos, I really enjoy your excitement at every fish. Thanks mate

[@qcarr]

All I can say is WOW!! Awesome fish, amazing river!! Here in the Northeast USA, our Browns would never bite when the water is so clear. Great job landing those BEASTS and thanks for the video!!

[@rivermanoutfitters572]

Incredible video man. Love that you risked it for that fish, didnt pay off, stayed on the water soaking wet then caught the beautiful 9 lb stick of butter.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Yeah mate I think I paid a fair price for that fish🤙 cheers

[@HeliosDroneWorks]

I agree, this is one of ,y favorite videos of yours! Awesome footage. It reminds me of the emotional ups and downs of landing and losing huge browns in Colorado. They are my favorite trout and love the head shakes and deep dives. Thanks for posting!,

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers bro glad you enjoyed it🤙

[@2CyMaN]

Landing and losing huge browns ^^ haha

[@swashbucklingadventures9929]

Edub 1278 Where you seeing the browns in Colorado? New to fly fishing.

[@HeliosDroneWorks]

Do you live in CO? There are very large Browns south west of Colorado Springs and in the mountains west of denver. There are lots of big fish in Wyoming as well

[@HeliosDroneWorks]

I’ve got some spots that are fantastic, but can’t give them up on KZbin 😎 Do you live near Boulder?

[@kellyschultz6990]

Awesome video! One of my favorites that you've done so far. Action packed!

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers buddy

[@Puckerization]

Great video Gareth, probably one of the most exciting chases down a river I've seen. I will be fishing that river this time next week.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Haha yeah it was pretty epic. Heaps of fish in there at the moment. Good luck when u get there.

[@jmwalls73]

Best video I have seen in a long time. Outstanding all the way round and capped by an absolute beast! Well done.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers BRO

[@rodgerarmstrong2464]

Outstanding video. Comming from Canada, that water is as clean as I have ever seen. The respect to which you handle your fish is incredible I commend you. My only negative comment would be your language...the bad fish comment is funny. .

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Yeah sorry about my language, I actually uploaded the wrong version and was a couple days before I realised. Thanks heaps bud 🤙

[@joshreed7102]

I think this was pretty much the best vid I’ve seen of yours. I was gripped.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Wow thanks heaps josh 🤙

[@kcbluemoon]

Man, one of my favorites of yours. Great battle in the lost fish and killer brown to end things. Goosebumps.

[@earlpitsch2149]

Awesome video made me feel like I was right there. Gorgeous scenery kind of surprised such splendor still exists, we with an appreciation really should work to preserve it for posterity. Rock on buddy!

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks mate

[@TheJFMAvideos]

Gareth- Love your style. The chase down the river was EPIC and brings back so many memories of fishing here in NZ!! Thanks for all the effort in producing these vids.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Michael Jones hey man thanks heaps. Appreciate it.🤙

[@onetwo234]

Where is this what country

[@struck2soon]

Nice. Shows the highs, lows and hardships that all combine to show what a day of fly fishing is all about.

[@jarrettlandreth285]

9 POUND BROWN?? In that tiny creek? Dude. You live in heaven

[@davidmcmillan7739]

By far the best flyfishing video I’ve ever watched on KZbin DVD anything in life

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thank you some much mate I really appreciate it.

[@jeremywood1342]

So to be honest I think this is the first video I’ve watched in a while that has had actual struggle to catch a fish! Didn’t cut out the work to get the fish like other people do. Awesome vid man, wish I could make it out there for a guided fishing trip.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks so much dude. Really appreciate hearing it. Let me know when you get here 🤙

[@calvinh208]

Liking and commenting for the algorithms because that was an intense downstream chase! I know I would follow that one if that were me too.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers bro

[@rtgsbeano]

You’re in paradise laddie! Beautiful Browns!

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Gsabeano yes I am thanks heaps

[@laurencevail6125]

Well your still with us, and we are thankful. Enjoy your videos

[@jethrofelton5253]

Love the chase downstream, especially while wearing my THNZ T-shirt. I think that makes me a fanboy. Thanks for all the humor and landing that 9 pounder took me back to my last NZ trip when is landed a 9’er. Sadly that was in ‘09. Need to come back. You make fishing fun dude. 🙌🏼

[@clum84]

Coolest upload in a while, you looked like you were having serious fun. That big brown right at your feet, unreal! Hope the gear is ok - I learned my lesson the hard way so got a simms dry creek pack. Saved me more than once since.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Callum Richardson cheers bro appreciate it. Yeah I have done it more the once, I’m a slow learner😂

[@DavidQuin]

Awesome video - amazing fish and very cool fishing, you have a great ability to see the fish in the river

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks mate. I appreciate it 🤙

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks mate. I appreciate it 🤙

[@flyingdutch9818]

Awesome vid mate .. you really nailed this one!

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers Dave. I appreciate it 🤙

[@matmanx2]

Great video!!! Laughing with you when you followed that fish downstream. I thought well he posted this video so he must survive!! Speaking of Browns,I caught a 10lb Scottish brown trout at the weekend. Ripped me to my backing twice.

[@kbs42]

Love your videos found the channel a few weeks ago going back and watching the past ones they are great

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks heaps Kody glad you enjoy them🤙

[@mo8748]

All the thrill of the hunt and chase for big Trout in a very fast flowing stream which a lot of us know can have a deep hole to walk into , in the heat of the chase! Very well done Sir!l PS I don't mean walking into the hole😅

[@lone_wolf_lifestyle]

Thanks for this awesome vid man I just got out of surgery and can’t really post on my channel but I love watching your vids.. I’m a huge fan of your trout fishing 🎣 thanks for the inspiration.. tight lines

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers bro. Get well soon 🤙

[@kylecallbeck]

Sweet vid man! I spent a week on that river the first time I was in NZ. Fell in love with it haha can't explain it!

[@indecisive2690]

What's the river called

[@ecomed-davidhagan2996]

Loved that video Gareth.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers mate

[@waterdragon5418]

Great video. Water is so nice n clean. Amazing fish.

[@Juuuleez]

6:10 - sounds like me trying to pull start my lawn mower haha

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Hahaha bit more choke and I might have started 🤙

[@mikaelrantaoutdoors]

Lmao 😂😂

[@jarrettlandreth285]

Best comment I’ve read in a while 😂

[@mikekruse5809]

I've gone swimming after fish in that little river too. Serious flow for such a small channel. Oh yeh, the Loop Q is dynamite. Just bought a 7 weight and it is remarkably light, powerful, sensitive... Like so many others have said, good as rods costing 2-3 times as much.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Yeah bro the Loop Q is dope. And yeah the river is crazy for its size.🤙

[@troymatinca6484]

What part of NZ, and what is River called? Is there good accommodation close by,im from Australia

[@backcountrylifemagazine6912]

Nice vid! I'm a trout/salmon guide/bum from Michigan, USA (Great Lakes etc.). We have epic fly-fishing for trout, steelhead and salmon in our river systems. Different scenery than your's but very similar otherwise... Cracking up at the "colorful" language, which is exactly what you'd hear here in Michigan. You sound as if you've spent time here, based on your very proper cursing techniques. Tight lines dude! Keep your hat dry!

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Hey mate thanks heaps m. Yeah I was there last year.😂 coming back soon aswell. Cheers mate 🤙

[@StroffolenoAngling]

Nice man! Sick session, way to persevere.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks mate I appreciate it 🤙

[@danmaran321]

Ok Gareth , I have watched over 35- 45 of your videos dude, and love em all however this one is my favourite, you really did go for a long walk with that brown... Ace man, cant wait to get the op to come down from Victoria and book a guiding day with you. D I have fished the south a bit but the north will be a first for me.

[@travishyde95]

Keep the videos coming. Love them! One day I wanna come over there and fish. Its a huge dream of mine!!

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Cheers mate I hope u get here

[@jimmyleeahojr]

This video was outstanding... nice work...

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Thanks heaps mate I appreciate it🤙

[@thomasmckenzie4584]

I have watched so many New Zealand fly fishing vids and have yet to ever see a small trout caught. Every fish in New Zealand is a pig!!! Wish I were there. Great video!

Magical streams dude

[@DHay23]

Just wondering what kind of rod, reel and weight you’re using for fishing like this?

[@stevendinger9081]

Nice video dude. Quick question, what knot do you use to tie your tippet material onto your leader?

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Hey bro think it’s called a surgeons knot.?? I’ll try remember to show u in a video.

[@asr88GBR]

Great video, and what a fish!

How did you whip the jelly egg off the line so quick in the first change? No nippers, am I missing something?

[@kameroncarter8050]

It’s so funny listening to this guy swear

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Hahaha god you enjoyed it. I was supposed to bleep it all out but I forgot

[@803brando]

How long of leaders do you run for clear water?

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Normall 12-15ft some rivers require 15-18

What net is that?

Hey mate it’s a mcleans net

[@rivermob3606]

Trout Hunting NZ thank you very much, I was looking at them and was just wondering if they are as good as they look? Love the idea of being able to weigh your fish but I’ve had some bad experiences ordering nets without seeing them.

[@skiprocker5751]

That's not only Ultra clear water. That is world class beautiful .Plus slamming Moby pig, major propagations from the states

[@lewismcgregor5330]

I suspect anywhere else on the planet that would be a fish of a lifetime. Keep posting appreciated in Scotland for sure.
