Fighting a big brookie on a maxcatch ultraglass 3 weight

[@benjamingut1078]

fly fishing changed my life and my overall mental health

[@rayb.hopkins9709]

I concur. Now every stream or River I drive by I want to fish it. So relaxing.

[@torontocharlz]

You know it is intense when you can hear the guy's heartbeat in the video

[@dustin_diamond]

Haha yeah, I was breathing pretty heavy

[@3runjosh]

when I first researched fly fishing, people were saying it was an expensive hobby. 7 months later I realise that fly fishing is about the same price as buying decent running shoes once a year thanks to maxcatch.

[@dustin_diamond]

@@3runjosh maxcatch is a great brand!

[@matthewlentz6008]

And that's why my gf thought I was cheating on her when I said I'm going fly fishing every weekend. Love it. Great catch.

[@dustin_diamond]

Lol, a man with his priorities in order! Thanks for watching!

[@blackflycreations]

Nice Brookie! I Just built an Ultra light 2wt 6'6" with the maxcatch Size 2/3 reel. Its a blast to fish with especially tight small streams and for panfish. Stands up to my TFO and Orvis. I'll be posting some videos and a review in the next few weeks. You dont need a 500$ name brand to catch fish. Tight lines🐟

[@srgbuffalobuffalony7112]

Beautiful healthy brookie! Nice job! Never have kept a brookie in NY State. HEar they are tasty. Always release the few I have caught. Good size wild brooks are hard to come by and deserving of release. I LOVE the super light weight rods - in fly and spinning. No better sport!! Especially ultralight spin with 4 lb test for spawning 5-8lb Lake Erie trib smallies. Hook a spring smallie on ultralight? HANG ON!!!! Ride of your life!

[@brianstrickland7306]

Nice fish 👍 I’ve been fishing my maxcatch 3wt for a year and it might be one of my favorite rods. It’s brought in westslope cutts in Idaho up to 17” no problem.

[@singlemom3260]

Might be one of your favorite rods. What’s the other, a cortland?

[@brianstrickland7306]

@@singlemom3260 I’ve got probably 10 rods. Everything from sage, beaulah, echo, lamiglas, TFO. This cheap one catches fish just as well as a high end rod, and I don’t care if I break it or beat it up.

[@soundbwoikilla764]

@@brianstrickland7306 Word. I have 7 Maxcatch rods and when I'm rock hopping, bushwacking, crawling after spooky brookies and getting my maxcatch reel and rod banged and dinged about, I ain't sweating it. Plus they catch trout just fine.

[@rayb.hopkins9709]

Great catch. Thanks for sharing.

[@Charsept]

Love the sound of that drag. Good fight on that 3wt.

[@rayb.hopkins9709]

Yes it was a good fight. Give some then take some. Be patient and it works out nicely.

I was on the edge of my seat for the duration of this video! Love glass rods!

Thanks for watching!

[@jeffmead4670]

Nice brook, the best tasting of all of the salmonids in my opinion, you did a great job bringing him in with that light equipment.

[@mikeroll9868]

I was going to buy the graphite 8’3” 3 wt but got a 9’ 5wt for starting out. All around rod. I really like it. I did know the ultralight rods were glass. Very cool fish. Thanks.

Beautiful fish and a great release good job man

beautiful Brookie!

May get this or the Butterstick for my 3w upgrade.

[@Abandoned_Brane]

Those light weight glass rods are a blast.

[@gregbeeso980]

That's a fucking beast brookie. I'm waiting on my 3wt moonshine coming Monday... then on the hunt for these beauts

[@dustin_diamond]

Haha thanks! Congrats on the new rod and good luck this season! 🤙

[@daviddoerr749]

Beautiful fish man, I bet you wish they were all that big! I've caught an 18 incher here in WA and thats my PB so far.

[@philippesmalley8403]

This 2 minutes video of yours sir has me convinced that I should just go ahead and purchase these budget friendly rods from maxcatch! That's a beautiful fish also, great job!

Heck Yea Brother! NICE FISH! I have the same rod.

[@dustin_diamond]

Thanks Rob!

[@granthonsowetz8511]

What a fight!

[@rubythroat2258]

Nice fish! Great video! I have never landed a fish on a fly rod by reeling it in like this - I always strip the line. I am interested to try... and even more interested in this fiberglass 3wt. Thanks much for sharing!!

[@dustin_diamond]

I like using the drag on a fly reel when I hook bigger fish, ive lost monster fish due to stripping the line as they go for a run, resulting in a pulled hook or breaking my tippet. Thanks for watching!

[@markdoyle8713]

How did you see that i have watched that hit 4 times

[@dustin_diamond]

Thanks! Ya ur right! My biggest trout to date I caught on a 30$ walmart combo.

[@rickricky5626]

light tackle is fun

[@austinstillman1961]

Hey Dustin! Question for you! How has this rod held up now that four years have passed? I am thinking of buying one. Thanks!

[@dustin_diamond]

Hey Austin! So I since gave it away to a friend and bought another just like it but in a different colour, ive abused them, caught big fish on them and I just cant break it! I highly recommend getting one, but from the website as you normally get alot of free things thrown in with the purchase when purchasing directly from Maxcatch 👍

[@MichealBacon]

Nice catch. What length of rod are you using?

[@dustin_diamond]

7 foot

[@CanFirearmsReview]

What kind of line are you using?

[@davidaguiar1387]

Maxcatch rod. Maxcatch reel. My guess would be a Maxcatch Line. I do know they make one in that blue color. All good stuff cheap! I own several.

[@soundbwoikilla764]

Omg that's a nice pig

[@ReelAnglerReviews]

Great Catch! Any way I can get a description of the line you are using? I really love the color.

[@dustin_diamond]

Its also the Maxcatch brand, if you go to their website you can find all sorts of unique fly line colours, they hold up quite well and for a solid price too! Thanks for watching

[@jakerowe3937]

How's that reel treating you? I was fixing to order one and noticed yours is there eco

[@dustin_diamond]

Have used it for quite a few years, the drag isnt the greatest, but for the money it isnt too bad!

[@jonahurban2649]

Would you recommend this rod?

[@dustin_diamond]

Sure would! they are well worth the price, and you can experience a glass rod without branking the bank. Thanks for watching!
