The way he handles these magnificent creatures is something to behold. They are dripping wet for his 2 second slomo shot and then it is straight back into the water. Nice to see someone who has such respect for these fishes that he does not subject them to minutes out of water or excessive handling. Well done, sir.

[@netimefishing7787]

Couldn’t agree with you more

[@banjopete]

Especially there, low oxygen saturation, easily stressed.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks for that man. It’s something I feel very strongly about and I’m glad that comes across on camera🤙

[@jamesdecourcey7323]

@@TrippinOnTrout It definitely comes across on the camera and the way you speak about the fish. All the respect in the world to you.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

@@marlsounds Nothing worse than blatant mis treatment and lack of respect for such awesome creatures😡

[@jaredlewis7307]

Man, that drone shot where you're netting the fish and the bird cruises by is just amazing.

[@johnrachcoff6928]

I just keep coming back to this video. It shows just how good NZ fishing is. No helicopter required, No walk in through jungle, the stream is loaded with big brown that take dries. Fly fishing paradise.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

It really was a banger of a day!!

[@backpackingireland8624]

Absolutely outstanding Alex . Superb fish , stunning NZ day too . Brings back memories of Christchurch and the easy life

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks man, good times alright

[@TimeOnTheLake]

Mountains, beautiful creek and scenery... and a beautiful big brown trout. Looks like my dream day

[@TimeOnTheLake]

Keep the videos coming man, very enjoyable! Just starting posting on my channel, going to post a lot more fishing content in 2021. Would appreciate if you checked it out!! Thanks, TotL

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Cheers man, appreciate it! Thanks for watching🤙 I’ll check it when I get a chance

[@jamesstephen7640]

That drone shot was something else just brilliant

[@JulienSarton]

Love how much effort you put in getting different angles of camera, your videos are getting better and better !!!!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks heaps man, I’ve def been trying to up the quality lately🤙

[@mr.f2087]

The scenery is truly breathtaking! I love this river because it brings such beautiful views and amazing fishing experiences to me. I immerse myself in your fishing experiences through your videos. They make me feel relaxed and content. Thank you for sharing!

[@waltervancleave6495]

Magnificent views! Buttafull County. Great video. Can't believe the size of those Brownies. Think you very much for sharing your passion with us. Best regards from the USA. 🇱🇷👍👍

[@intothewildwego7085]

UN-FREAKING real, buddy! You fish some of the most beautiful water. Really great video, editing, and music! Thank you for putting out some of the best fishing content on KZbin.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks so much man, pumped you guys enjoy it so much. Don’t plan on stopping!

[@reggieglubber5420]

Pseudo profanity adds nothing.

[@mathiaskrk]

Again! Great fishing, stunning views, lovely country and river. Thats my kind of river!

[@davidmiller7771]

Top drawer fly fishing , every fish quickly and safely released , you only dream of catching trout like this , man and fly rod in perfect harmony

[@bolykkeberg]

Stunning fish and a complete different kind river, love it. Annette seems to be working well.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Cool bro. Loving Annette!!

[@s.i.r.7832]

unreal. hard to imagine a spot like that not being overrun with fisherman. perfection!

[@gregnelson7545]

Great exploration trip! So nice to have it pay off!

[@love4cristiano]

Great film mate! Love how you break down your gear and fly selection.

[@brendanwalsh5718]

My favourite place I've been fishing with you!

[@mattokeefe691]

Great productive stream. Thanks so much

[@ageorge7140]

Thank you for sharing your experiences I just had shoulder surgery so I won't be able to fish till I have several months of rehab, but watching your videos is like being right there with you. Thanks again tight lines.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

I’ve been there too bro. Had my right one done completely. Be patient, do EVERYTHING right and you’ll be back on the water good as gold🤙

[@stuartday3232]

Love the drone footage of that take in amongst the sunken logs. How it didnt snag you up is beyond me.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Sometimes you get lucky..!

[@marcmulholland1017]

Love the small back water streams ... Reminds me of Southland

[@lanetaylor4278]

Amazing drone footage! And thanks a ton for the arrows pointing out the fish!

[@hiphopodense]

What a perfect day, WOW.. Beautiful fish and river.. Great camera work👍

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Cheers bro!

[@rockinflyproduction]

Absolutely my favorite fly fishing video I have ever seen. Bro keep up the good and tight lines!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Wow, thanks so much. Stoked you enjoyed it!

[@fishandflywithgus]

dude, the aerial shot at the end, the take, the landing, the bird flying over... You just can't beat this fishing and filming piece. Absolutely unreal man. These are the moments and the times that we should all celebrate and thank our lucky stars we're part of the best team on the planet - the conscientious fly fishing community. Is there anywhere else you'd rather be or anything else you'd rather be doing? WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

So good when it comes together aye mate🤙

[@michaelmckenna14]

Reminds me of the river Devon in Scotland, I love fishing smaller rivers as I get lost in big rivers lol

[@malcolmism6]

Hi. I stumbled on your channel by accident. I am a fly Fisher my self but mostly still water in Scotland UK. U have another subscriber . Love your channel. Your filming is top notch as well as the places u fish.Some day would be nice to get out and fish again, would love to fish your neck of the woods.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks heaps for the sub🤙 Much appreciated and stoked you enjoy the content

[@imraduin]

This is all I need in life when it's -20C and dark here in Sweden. Thanks a bunch, as always!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Sounds harsh man, hang in there!

[@mattbasista3028]

Great fish and its nice to see the farmers preserve the riparian vegetation. It does alot for the streams health and makes for a variety of cover for those spotty browns

[@johnminichielli8957]

NZ was a fishing paradise before the farmers switched to cows, fertilizer, and pesticides. I'm speaking from the perspective of a person who has fished both islands from the late 1970"s.

[@KyleSilva1990]

These kind of places, filled with these kind of fish. Is what ensures me that God created us and this planet for us to enjoy and be thankful for his glory and greatness.

[@babcoboss5773]

Awesome video Alex! One of my favourite rivers, I grew up fishing that one, takes me back. Gotta love those beauty browns!

[@elkhunterbill5087]

Excellent work! Your videos stand alone on the channel Alex. Looking forward to the next one. Best...

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks so much man🙏🤙

[@joelnelson1550]

A most enjoyable watch! So many different angles and some well fit browns!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Awesome man, stoked you liked it

[@dharmajunky]

Ty! You are my favorite you tube channel across all content. Top tier talent at fishing and video production, Amazing

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks heaps man!!! Appreciate that🤙🤙

[@adamcorey5783]

NZ is crazy, even when there isn’t a bush left the fish are amazing.

[@Mako215]

Throwing this onto an HD TV is awesome bro. Superb video. And the colour of that sky...

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Unreal aye!!

[@johnkovacs2388]

What an awesome little stream full of beautiful fish. Thanks Alex for another great video

[@invictus3598]

Definitely, a great day! Thank you!

[@intoflyfishing]

another fantastic video. Love your respect for the species and the waters. An ambassador for the sport for sure.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Appreciate that heaps bro, thank you 🤙

[@struck2soon]

Alex, by far and away THE BEST footage you have ever posted! (IMHO). The drone shots were a really nice addition, and clearly showed the fish. Seeing a head coming out the water to take a dry fly is SO much more visually appealing than seeing (or usually not seeing) a nymph eat. Rock on!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Wikid man, thanks heaps. Can’t beat a dry fly eat!

[@tonythomas3689]

Brilliant fish and filming Alex, thanks

[@jacekpawlik817]

One of th best videos yet. Sick camera/drone shoots, and I bet most people look at the bird .

[@TrippinOnTrout]

How cool was the bird!!!

[@BearFlagRebel]

Size = BRE(Bug Rich Environment)

[@THEMONVALLEYFISHERMAN]

Love the smaller water videos! Them browns made me slobber. Butterballs. Keep em comin!

[@johnconklin5180]

Spectacular! Very challenging fishing with the banks and branches to deal with. Amazing film and edit work and beautiful big brown trout. You’re absolutely correct in that it gets no better. Pleasure to watch. Thank you.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Stoked you enjoyed it so much. Thanks man🤙

[@11happychap]

Mmmm that river looks familiar. Great clip thanks for sharing.

[@adriangadd6888]

Great work again Alex....what a fishery!

[@davidg-m1768]

Another top quality video.... that drone stuff is amazing. Love that part of the country, some real gems that don’t see a lot of action.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Hopefully it stays that way bro🤙

[@davidream5175]

Sweet! I love small streams. Tricky fish....

[@jeromedwojak918]

One word describes it all, beautiful! Outstanding video!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks so much!

[@thegiraffe917]

Insane bro! Always been my dream to fish a stream like that

[@henrythompson8735]

That was so good. How you can fish and produce first rate video on you own is simply amazing. Thanks for sharing.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Sometimes it works out better than others.

[@michaeltidd771]

Your the best. Only second time watching and am hooked. Love the way you care for the fish. Your skill and comments are Awesome.

[@martinperotti5954]

A day of fishing like you have is going to be always in your memory as the perfection that it was.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Yeah those days stay with you don’t they!😊

[@SportFishingAsia]

You are so lucky to have such amazing rivers there, fantastic camera work too. Hats off to you.

[@SeanCleverly]

Absolutely stunning locale, amazing Trout and really beautiful filming. What a truly wonderful video, thank you for taking the time and effort to make and share it with us.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Stoked you enjoyed it so much bro!!!

[@scottrick5190]

Great vid. as always... keep em coming!!!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Will do!

Great vid mate and a lovely piece of water you found there.

Superb!!great footage of the trout taking the dries

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Cheers bro🤙

[@geoffbeavis6426]

Beautiful fish. You’ve got to be happy with that session👍🎣

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Stoked all round with that day!!

[@carlchambers617]

Another great video. Your camera work is superb. Loved the drone shot of the brown taking the dry.

[@jared19baker]

Unreal footage, man!!! What a day

[@radigan209]

I don’t know how anyone could dislike this video. Awesome day and incredible fish.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

There’s always one that doesn’t like it bro🤷‍♂️

[@hyoutdoors7054]

Yeah, weird eh. 72 people?! Competing trout channels perhaps hahaha.

[@pedro2130]

I read recently that animal rights groups just mill about youtube disliking anything against their ethos. They encourage their followers to spend time doing it...

[@pierevojzola9737]

Hi Alex, great visuals and beautiful casting and presentation. Anywhere else these trout would have been classified as “Trophy”, yet you make it look as very normal. Cheers mate. Jasons point on trees along river banks and in the water is a valid point. Harera

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Agreed there bro. Thanks for commenting🤙

[@marcelfishing]

Absolutely beautiful,well done mate 👍🏻

[@Craigsoutdooradventures]

Footage is amazing, FairPlay a really great video. Wish I could get my fishing videos half that good

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks heaps man. Just keep at man👊

[@theheronknowsprimewater1035]

Man definitely some awesome filming of those dry fly eats!!!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks heaps man.

[@lukem2492]

I love the guitar song you used in this one, set a nice mood for the video. And it was a beautiful drone shot at 18:00 where you land the fish and the bird flies by, great stuff Alex.

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Yeah that was a stroke of luck aye bro!!!🤙

[@anneelam6244]

As always, gorgeous fish and photography!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks Anne👍

[@jamesstephen7640]

Easily your best one yet WOW words fail me never seen such beautiful fish

[@keiranrogers4739]

That is my favourite of your videos. Those browns! That glorious blue sky day!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Don’t get many days like that aye!!

[@shawnschallenger1972]

Nice fishing guy. I admire the way you treat those awesome fish. Much respect 🙌

[@bpyew]

Best condition browns I've ever seen. Amazing

[@62BC]

Super cool session mate. Incredible fish out of that water and well fished. Really loved the edit on this one ... thank you

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks. Stoked you enjoyed it

[@JP-dz7zu]

Wow, great slow mo shot of the eat!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Good when it works out aye🤙

[@michaelallen7869]

Big respect to you Alex for not going for a fish with little chance of landing - good karma will be rewarded 👏👏

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks mate, I just don’t see the point aye🤷‍♂️ I would rather just watch them for a bit and not ruin their day unnecessarily.

[@gregocconer682]

What a stunning place, beautiful fish. Best video of the year. 👍

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Stoked you enjoyed it Greg💪

[@Adakoz1]

Def the best video on your channel. Beautiful

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Awesome man thanks!

[@tightliningmd]

As a fly fisher and film maker for KZbin this was inspiring. Your ability to capture the fun elements of the trip and the minutia of the chase, hookset, and thrill is incredible. Great job as always and I really love this one. Keep up the great work!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks so much! Inspires me to keep getting after it bro👊

[@Shoreline_Heroes]

@tightliningmd I am a fly fishing video creator and I love your channel and I saw your subscriptions and they match mine too haha. Just wanted to say I like your videos and keep up the awesome work🎣👍✌️

[@eleocasil]

[@TrippinOnTrout]

That’s cool bro! Nice one👊

[@daviddurham3052]

Absolutely unbelievable day and a truly extraordinary angler!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Appreciate that bro👊

[@alejalbor]

Congrats Alex!! Amazing catch!! Thanks for share it. I had a similar experence in Patagonia last season

[@timk4809]

Absolutely great fishing and great video too. I don’t know how you managed to set up for so many different takes, including drone, and make it all feel seamless. Well done! I really enjoyed watching you catch and land that monster brown. One should never underestimate a fish like that, and you played him very well. Cool!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thanks heaps! It is Nice one, stoked you are digging the content! when it all comes together - so many times it doesn't!

[@williamkaylor1191]

Alex, this video is just what I needed on this dreary winter night. Yes, amazing to get this kind of response on a river that is unknown. NZ is on my bucket list, and if the World stays together, should see you in a year or so! As an audio. post engineer, kudos on the. FCP skills, andthe. great footage you shoo solo. Good audio. too, many others have such an imbalance level wise from music to dialog. I have to say, if I get to Heaven, it better have a river like this running through it!

[@TrippinOnTrout]

Thank you bro!! Means a lot coming coming from someone that knows about that sort of thing!

[@hiluxstu1]
