Incredible trout fishing in a wilderness setting - My last day in Idaho! p31

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 31 of the truck bed camping road trip, I'm fly fishing this incredible stream in Idaho and it's the beginning of hunting season which means it's not getting any attention right now! This is an awesome time to be on these area waters...I had every inch of this stream to myself while hunters were in the mountains!
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:

Best fly fishing content on KZbin. Something addictive about watching the trout strike the flies.

[@LooknFishy]

Definitely appreciate that!

[@zachguillaume5256]

Living my dream life through your vids. Keep it up!!

[@chesterpielock8824]

That pool sequence at about 10 was among the best of the year!!!! The lighting was gorgeous. The fish even better.

[@Fishin-Ipps]

God. The clarity of the water is ridiculous. Love this stuff, Drew!

[@kennyhewitt3125]

This is when fly fishing is at the ultimate. So easy to get lost in the stream , surroundings ! 👍

[@silvertip8k278]

You might think about trying wading pants and boots...especially the way you're fishing...they are very cool to wear and easy to get in and out of.

[@user-zy6oy7qh5f]

You are absolutely awesome. The best you tube fly fishing videos. I have watched your videos dozens of times. I started fly fishing when I lived in California, and learned to tie flies with the late Andre Puyan. The AP nymph was the first fly i learned to tie. I thought it was named after him, but he claimed it was the all purpose nymph. I hope to see soon a 2023 road trip. Maybe you could include in a future video a trip through Northern California. Perhaps New Mexico, Arizona, California, Idaho, Montana. Please keep the videos coming. Love it.

[@ejkelley2364]

a wilderness setting.....neat

[@Hrogthar]

Yet another beautiful setting... It's almost that time of year to get out into those cutthroat streams.

[@LooknFishy]

Definitely dreaming of wet wading weather!

[@dsmith2601]

Love those little cutty streams

[@antoniomora1255]

Incredible clarity of the water and superb scenery with plenty of big trout. Awesome video.

[@stephenhaegele2297]

Another great video!

[@LooknFishy]

Thank u!

[@heppisaxm8316]

Admirabel fly fishing,superb creek,nice trout. Super mister!❤

[@LooknFishy]

Many thanks!

[@TAG993]

That was a long hike back. Water was gin clear and beautiful fish caught. Nice day!

[@jimpyle560]

So many great streams on this trip. Stunning sounds and scenery.

[@LooknFishy]

Really don't think I'll ever top it...unless I repeat it lol!

[@blueridgeflyguy9551]

Loved every one of the videos in this series Drew.

[@Mrrich77]

Great video Drew thanks again!

[@williampacey9194]

Nice stream supporting some nice beautiful trout.

[@Malcolm_Q]

I am certain you cover a lot of ground to find the nice runs and holes, which you don't show. Just goes to show looks can be deceiving sometimes, and you get rewarded for your effort. Actually, we get rewarded for your effort. 😁 Thank you Drew.

[@hillbillysportsman5818]

Love the videos! I like watching camp cooking also!

[@LooknFishy]

Definitely adding those back in this year!

[@pughtopia1]

Nice size trout! Fishing upper Nantahala NC now Nice brown and some smaller bows so far

[@garyrafferty7625]

Hoping you had a great winter and tied lots of flies. Look forward to your next trip out west!

[@oldsmugglerflyfishing]

Great video Drew! Idaho is a very nice place to fish.

[@LooknFishy]

Definitely a favorite!

[@OldForestBushcraft]

Insanely beautiful river! And my good what trouts! Subbed! Really nice channel! Cheers from Finland!

[@vernonwest7983]

Well done as usual.

[@LooknFishy]

Thank u!

[@jcwilliams01]

Another excellent video, Drew. I've never fished Idaho, but I have to now. Gotta have my first cutthroat. Kinda funny how a 2.5 mile hike is a little easier to imagine in the afternoon! Happy trails.

[@elitecallofdutysniper]

love your video's as a kid helps alot you should come down to ga sometime and fly fish

[@LooknFishy]

Definitely need to get on some shoal bass!

[@mikemagers1299]

Back on the road….thanks. M2

[@dogsoldiertoo1099]

Another great vid, Drew. That stream seemed to have a lot of skinny water but the holes were stacked with fish.

[@LooknFishy]

Yea, required a ton of walking!

[@rileywashere91]

Mind DMing me where this is at. I live in Utah and love exploring! That’s a BEAUTIFUL location.

[@briljantje9583]

That was a hell of a shave Drew 😉😇

[@briljantje9583]

Oh, and you know what I said before: you do not need an indicator. I don't like them.

[@magilla7887]

Hey brother, where have you been? Anyway, good to see ya back brother. Great stream 👍🏼👍🏼

[@phineousmagoo1669]

I do love your videos!! Once in awhile please throw us a bone and let us actually know the creek, stream, river, or lake that you're fishing so maybe we can have the experience too. Most of us live nowhere near any of these bodies of water but should we travel to the area, it would be awesome toggle it a go! I doubt very highly that any spot will be fished out by your viewers. We have more nature ethics than plundering. Nice cutties!

[@chrishenslick5482]

Great example of how you dont need 6 rods to catch fish, but there are situations where it's nice to have options.

[@kdub4728]

You need to fly fish sliver creek in ID . It's a place once you see and experience you will dream about it the rest of your life.

[@kdub4728]

It opens up on Memorial day some of the biggest German browns and rainbow trout you will ever see. Night fishing with a mouse is epic a most try.

[@ammon8974]

@@kdub4728 I live an hour away from that creek I love fishing it and the little wood rivved

[@charleshutcheson2506]

Your fly line makes an unusual sound slipping through the rod guides. What fly line is it? Oh, don’t retire that net! It looks like a survivor of many epic battles, with so many stories to tell!

[@LooknFishy]

I fish textured line on my trout rods. That's the noise you hear. The net deserves its own page lol!

[@lewricker4395]

Nice to see cutthroat again, don’t have them back east. Do you carry bear spray just in case? We did some years ago when in Yellowstone.

[@big659]

Love your videos! What type of wading boots and what sole do you wear? Thanks

[@lalilulelo1818]

You make Fly fishing look so easy! What length do you recommend between the slingshot and the nymph? And when to use a slingshot (or not)?

[@billg4269]

What fly line do you use for throwing your larger dry dropper combinations?

[@mattpriest1674]

Have you ever fished the Continental Divide in Wyoming? In a 1 mile radius, you can catch Rainbow, Bonneville Cutthroat Brown, and Brooke from 3 rivers. It's where I earned my fishing merit badge and first found a love of this sport. I'd love to see some footage of you catching the 4 species in a day.

[@LooknFishy]

I have not but that sounds super cool!

[@diverm2371]

5 of diamonds next......

[@jimgollach6202]

This type of fishing is tough on us older guys, but it's worth the effort and fun. Hey drew, that stream you were fishing, was the water level low or at normal flow? Enjoyed watching. 👍

[@LooknFishy]

I assumed it was low. It was near the end of Sept and hadn't rained since I was there.

[@PistolVania412]

Did you fish the lower section of this part of the stream? And how was it if you did.. i had boaters and a rain storm ruin it for me..

[@ajkelly44]

Kelly Creek?

[@Callaweginflyfishing]

Drew, Great Cut Throats. Can you tell me what brand of 10' 4 weight Rod you use?

[@unabrazoatodoslosbuenos]

In Idaho that's called a creek.🙈🙈🙈 In California that's a full blown river. Where was it exactly?
