Fly Fishing World Class Trout River!

[@nicks8026]

3:07 love that behavior! My dog head-butted a steelhead in a similar fashion last fall. I was laughing so hard the fish got loose with the hook still in his mouth and had to be reeled back in for a (second) release.

[@jamesrussell5135]

Your pup has come along way!

[@Questjeka]

Классные видео и рыбалка отличная!

[@perolofakesson7856]

Nice first fish (rainbow) and a cool cool dog! Love it! 👍 😍

[@paddyO961]

nala has calmed down so much good work

[@donalokelly]

Love the dog, very funny

[@rhyswerner8749]

I know its probably really annoying when you're trying to release a fish, but I absolutely love watching nala stab them with her nose 😂😂 has to be the cutest funniest thing I've seen a dog do in a long time bahah

[@billhowe863]

Can remember using split shot 60 years ago when it was frowned on by fly fishermen, but catching larger Browns was proof enough for me that drifting streamers through deeper water with shot of different sizes and amounts worked. Like watching your videos, cannot wade and fish anymore myself, keep up the good work ..

[@CrazyAboutFlyFishing]

You did better than me landing that fish at your last spot. I have lost a bunch there being towed downstream. Good fish in the river this year. Nice vid as always.

[@dpfisherman]

Awesome footage great watch 👌🏻🎣

[@ROBAILEY5]

Another great one! New camera is doing those fish proud. Keep it up bro!

[@chaseandgather]

Enjoyed that mate!

[@paulspeed9832]

Cracking video dude, some fine fish there. Love Nala!!

[@carloszamora8037]

Good job brother nice fish what fishing net brand you using looking a nee good net thanks for your time

[@newzealandadventures2665]

Let’s go new upload

[@feralphil1198]

Keep it going mate. Would love to visit NZ for some sick trout fishing. These fish you got right there? Marvelous specimen.

[@jlush444]

Cheers Gareth. ✌️

[@kobehernandez9930]

May be time to look into a new reel eh?🤔😂 Love the vids man keep me coming!

[@lambertsaldi1550]

Great fishing good for you 👍👍 The Vermonter

[@dominicdygert5410]

You are an amazing fly fisherman. I have a question though do you think you’ll be able to make a vid with huge fly fisherman? Keep up the great work ( I committed before I finished the vid bc you’re content is always really good

[@trippyq5884]

Dominic Dygert that would be an awesome cross over... sucks they live on opposite sides of the globe

[@zacharysauer1964]

Man people need to learn some river etiquette, great video as always. Nala seems like a fun fishing dog, gotta love labs 🤣

[@kefayathussain3330]

Nice bro 👌

[@corpeedo]

Just Subscribed mate! been watchin your channel for ages! Would love to get back to Turangi to flick a few flies.

[@kennethgordon7885]

Very nice fish. Bet they would be great eating. Do you ever keep any fish to eat? Another great video.

[@cainolson3350]

Sorry you lost your drone. If you ever need a UAS pilot let me know. Great video!

[@paulcarter5731]

Fella , Gareth, would seem 10/10 for fishing and having a cool dog but 1/10 for drone flying! Do you not not tie your own flies if there's a shortage of 101's, at least give it a go? They seem to be a really productive fly for both you and Alex?

[@imraduin]

What strength leader/tippet are you using? You pressure those fish so hard, you rarely lose any line and yet not that many break off

[@clum84]

How many subs to fly someone from Scotland to fish with you? 😆 Keep the vids coming mate, we're still pretty screwed for fishign over here. Alternativly, feel free to send Jacinda over and sort our shit out for us!

[@gus_mcg]

How are we screwed for fishing? Fishing restarted in Scotland on 29th May there and I’ve been oot everyday no bother what do u mean were screwed

[@clum84]

@@gus_mcg Up to you if you want to go against advice and travel any distance. Nothing I'd love more than to be on the Tweed, Tay or Dee, but all a bit far for most of us.

[@gus_mcg]

Callum Richardson aye but that’s the thing mate it’s guidance it’s not law, and you know how easy it is to fish by yourself it’s literally the best get away sport from the public and crowds, in my opinion mate

[@adamstacey4790]

You gotta teach the pup a secret whistle signal to send her up stream and blow up the spot on people that creep in on your session dude.

[@TroutHuntingNZ]

Hahah yeah mate that’s a great idea

[@kenlloyd5195]

when you need alex he is missing in action , you could have biffed him up the tree lol,, another top video

[@marcmulholland1017]

I feel your pain losing the drone ... I lost my rimu landing net and a box full of C3 flies fishing the Tongariro over the weekend ... Fishing is getting expensive

[@donotrobme9295]

Huge. Tjx

[@troutfixnz]

Ahh ratshit bout the drone bro an sorry bout 101s to i think i bought the last of em from taupo r n t cuple weeks back 😂

[@big1dog23]

Fished it fr a couple hours lst March and got......0. Only river in NZ that skunked me, but I really just wanted to see it after going to the trout center.

[@monkeymanstones1]

At the absolute, bare minimum it was a "...couple hours Ist March..." in one of the absolute finest places on our planet. While not having many catches ("fishing" not "catching" is the name for a reason) it was one of the absolute finest places on earth to experience such an outcome. One exceptional country!

[@landonium8289]

What is the double fly setup called? And how do you tie that?

[@fishbummin27514]

How many subs for a flight from the states?! I’m trying to get outta here. May not go back though

[@schmoonkie]

Can you provide materials list and tying instructions for the C3 101? I can take a stab at it based on the pictures I have, but perhaps you could save me some time... Thanks.

[@DeerToFishNZ]

Whats the new camera bro?

[@zipngo1]

Sorry about the drone. I was looking at the karma today.

[@spencerterry2355]

Hey what was that top fly you were using at the beginning of the video? I tried searching for it and can't find it.

[@WisdomWealthMotivation]

Hello I am Kiwi Boi and I like to fly fish I am coming to turangi and fishing in October at wanganui, I presume you are based down there I would like to meet u thanks :D

[@sanlebiker]

Loved the video! What a beautiful river mate! What's with that guy's river etiquette?? He cannot just jump in and ruin the river for another fisherman... it happens to me quite often (particularly in that river...) You could use your videos to promote good river etiquette and proper manners to approach the river. ;) I would love that! Cheers Gareth!

[@liambeatty4439]

👍🏼

[@davidmcmillan7739]

What size tip it and leader do you use

[@thewatcher7061]

When he says it’s big it’s BIG

[@willd5004]

how do you find that q series reel?

[@slapshot02mm]

Haha the dog

[@LifeOutdoors]

dude i cringed so hard at the first reel squeak i wasnt ready lol

[@russelrogers2540]

Loosing fish comes with the territory. I always maintain the the fishing is always good, but the catching, maybe not so much.

[@theheronknowsprimewater1035]

I reckon another 2 trips and Nala (don't know how to spell that) will grab a trout and run off with it

[@the_vlogging_sheep5316]

New to fly fishing just out of interest why do you fight the fish with the reel most others iv seen fight them by pulling the fly line by hand

[@kennethgordon7885]

By hand might work for smaller fish, but those kiwi fish are tanks!

[@kefayathussain3330]

I m from North Pakistan my best Hobie fly fishing

[@fate308]

ppl out there are just as rude as ppl in new york...oh he is fishing, i'm going 10ft above him and fishing the same hole he is...im sure he won't care

i don't think you will respond to this but I will work for free for you to edit your vids and make thumbnails I feel like I can help attract more people with brighter bolder thumbnails what do you think

[@jaredsharpe1906]

What about America lol

[@monkeymanstones1]

I follow your channel because Huge Fly Fisherman recommended you and I've enjoyed nearly all of your channel so far. But your dog is removing the very thin and slow growing slime coat from the Trout you catch because you're not making clear to him/her that the behavior is not appropriate nor acceptable. Using your fingertips nip his/her side like a moderate bite as you in a deep tone say "No". He/she will understand. The dog will do so once or twice after but he/she will learn what you mean pretty quickly. Dogs will do what you ask so long as you speak in their language! I am in no way saying "hurt your dog" nor "Use your fingertips so forcefully it breaks skin and bones", only that it make the point extremely clear to that dog that you very much don't like it. He/she will absolutely understand and get the point (but as I said it will likely take 2 or more times, because you've allowed it for so long... you've allowed the dog to endanger the well being of the fish you catch, to make the point painfully clear in case it's needed. I am absolutely not drowning you, only your control of your dog. I am trying to help you, not hurt you (clearly I live in the United States...).

[@Stunturtle929]

I bet you are a joy to fish with...

[@monkeymanstones1]

@General BoyHis dog wasn't the issue. His treatment of the dog in relation to a different life form is a different discussion. The dog is what is KILLING the fish he and I are fishing for, but my English Wofhound and his retriever are the issue. Retrievers are very, very often the issue. Few other species are of such concern. People treat soft jawed dogs which are killing the fish we are fishing for (in addition to everything else in addition) their surroundings as acceptable. Soft jawed dogs for whatever cause result in a loss of slow protective coating fish acceptable, where other breed of dogs not at all. It's the owners of the dogs allowing that dog to eliminate other species which at issue, not any other matter.

[@monkeymanstones1]

@@Stunturtle929 retrievers seem to result in the death of other species being acceptable fair game... other breeds of dogs no. Point the finger in the proper direction friend.

[@Stunturtle929]

@@monkeymanstones1 Those fish will survive a small nose touch of a dog. You might want to worry more about the people letting trout swallow baitfishing hooks than a curious dog.

[@monkeymanstones1]

@@Stunturtle929 Those fish have one of the thinnest slime coats in the fish world (excluding very deep sea species). He is fishing for the same species group I, a man with a degree in biology (focus Microbiology, minor in Chemistry) am fishing for. Look elsewhere for a target in canine behaviorism. I am only a man who grew with scent hounds (Beagles, Basset Hounds, English Fox Hounds, Harriers) and dealt with other family members who picked up dogs at seeming random which were out for blood, yet looked to me for support in dealing with those improperly raised and taught dogs. His dog is removing the very thin, slow growing slime coat of the species he's fishing for, but isn't instructing his dog not to remove the slime which protects those fish. The dog is easily trained but the fish are not and if they were they'd have to fight to avoid the dog tongue which would remove the slime coat which protects them from the bacteria in the water. You'd clearly rather not fish for Trout than protect the behavior of a dog which only wants to know what is reasonable in their life. Instructing the dog that touching the fish isn't okay once, (or because he had not before, 2+ times which the dog will eventually figure out after understanding that the owner is now giving what they wanted and providing clear instructions about the world around them so their life is better as a result... how are you missing that so painfully obvious point? Good lord man, you really cannot be this stupid... Dogs without their pack require guidance just as their pack would have given. This is not complex a all friend... take a few biology courses and my statements will become very, very clear. I very clearly stated no advocating of violence nor agression against the dog, rather that he speak a little dog since "human" has failed for so long to make sense to the dog... making clear speaking "dog" is what is needed.). My raising of my Beagles and Basset Hounds which lived for 17 to 19 years makes very clear my treatment is not just valid, but absolutely reasonable. How on earth could you possibly have missed my clear statement that he should not do so in a violent manner (as attempting to draw blood would be) is NOT VIOLENT? You clearly fail to understand basic English as you displayed a total loss of understanding of the language. Study the language, re-read the text I wrote, watch dogs interact and then come back and reply. You're dumping water from a bucket pulled from an empty well, clearly. Dogs are not human beings and speak in a different language. Learn the language and then criticize if I am off the mark as substantially far as your reply implies.
