Hank Patterson and April Vokey in Sensei (As Promised)

In my last video, I shared the latest Anchored podcast episode with Travis Swartz, aka Hank Patterson. Here is the video we are referring to (circa 2014).
Travis Swartz’s character, Hank Patterson, is a self-proclaimed world renowned fly fishing guide and instructor who exudes confidence in scenarios he knows very little about. In this episode anchoredoutdoo... Travis and I discuss his life as an actor and producer before turning to fly fishing humour.

We need more hank Paterson. This guy is a legend, truly a "world renown fly fisherman".

[@NDFlyFisher]

Hank Patterson. Always giving of himself to help those just learning. I’ll bet, given Hanks’s incredible generosity with his time and knowledge, that someday April might just become a fairly good fly fisher. Well done sir!

[@AprilVokey]

😆Amen!

[@luminepixels5437]

It should be on a T-shirt " Even when I am full of crap, I am right on the money!" :)

[@landonalbert2063]

We need more of this...hank could make fly fishing a household name around the world

[@davidserafin2692]

Two thumbs up. How you can you keep a straight face while fishing with Hank, is beyond me.

[@johnwillis971]

In all aspects of life they're are Hank Patterson's, all you need is a stooge and a mr.knowitall and the conversation could last a lifetime. Great job and a dry humor that I am a fan of. Thanks

[@NolanHauke]

Absolutely a stunner of a performance! Laughed so hard!

[@rgalante56]

That was excellent. He is such s goof ball. Loved the podcast!

[@robertvevans89]

Hank Patteron. So generous with his time and knowledge.

[@andy1or2]

[@AprilVokey]

☺️🙏🏻

[@lenridgely7483]

HAHAHA laughed my ass off, what a great video! thanks for cheering me up!

[@ChrisJBrown72]

Seems like forever since I’ve seen this… This paired with your film this spoofs, I feel is must see. Thank you for posting this!

[@jacobclinansmith9987]

This is the best!

[@daveschlom4033]

There are Christmas presents and then there are gifts. This is the latter and I am truly thankful for it.

[@SledorFish]

"Not that different"😂 I'm not sure why but that just cracked me up! I think we need more April and Hank adventures. Whether it ended up as a Hank style video or Travis getting to experience more of northern BC I would love to see it. That region is such a special place!

[@stark1036]

Yes!! That comment immediately hooked me on wanting more April & Hank 💀😂

[@very_hard_rocker]

Hank is pure gold

[@beyoutube76]

This was a GREAT video. I watched the recent podcast and looked forward to this. April and Travis, THANKs. I have been trying to learn spey/switch cast and in SoColo, I fail. Thanks!

[@tricknasty7262]

The fish portrait takes the cake!🤣

[@theredfishchronicles7929]

OUTSTANDING! Thank you Hank for passing on all that awesome knowledge to less fortunate HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@renacole7166]

HANK is my spirit animal. and man can he sing, almost as good as me in the shower.......alone

[@MrCbamford]

awesome, thanks

[@DaveHyde]

Incredible

[@stephenborchers1205]

Loved the video!!!!😂😂😂😂

[@davidmerriott7356]

Too funny. Good to see serious and joker mix.

[@alexredhat3476]

I missed that dude. You should both make more movies together.

[@jimholland1592]

I love it you did sooooooo well🤣🤣🤣

[@smallywaters7063]

Hank is back and bigger than ever!😂

[@driftstone]

I'm glad we could get through Hanks stunning jaw line to learn the real meat of spey casting.

[@AprilVokey]

😂

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

😂epic

[@adamcorey5783]

Your the real deal Hank🤘🏻

[@ChefAlexSocci]

I love this guy. All the super serious tarpon guides down here in florida get so annoying.

[@kokoschinski3950]

😂😂😂😂👌👌 Excellent

[@bb-fe9ur]

Did he finally catch the illusive SPEY😂😂😂😂 I thought it looked like a trout but im no expert 😕

[@JeremyReger]

Please tell me this went on the Fly Fishing Film Tour?

[@lastglance8782]

I’m guessing Hank didn’t see the bamboo rod coming!!! what just saying

[@martybraga4832]

Haha! Awesome!! 🤘

[@thomasham8892]

Haha, well done.

[@BrankoFlyFish]

Hi April. I have listened to your podcast with Hank Patterson at first (and enjoyed it a lot, learned a lot on the guy and the whole story) and watched this video afterwards. For some reason, I found it sad to watch... maybe just me...

[@AprilVokey]

Oh no! Sad’s not what we were going for! 🥲

[@joaquinarias1517]

so good!!!! hahaha

[@jefferickson8782]

I thought the podcast was funny, this is hilarious!!

[@RichardRempel-c6j]

OMG LOL

[@lastglance8782]

Ironheads rule

[@JerrodPotter]

🤣🤣🤣

[@wallydrifter]

Am I the only one perplexed on why hank put on a sports bra when he woke up? Does it help with casting?

[@AprilVokey]

Lol! It was part of the spoof from the original video we were making fun of. Basically mimicked the intro. We talk about it in the podcast… can certainly see how it’s perplexing all this time later 🤣

[@wallydrifter]

@AprilVokey lol I watched the podcast right after the video. To good not to of lol. Then I found the one with rooster! And was blown away. Good stuff!!

[@lastglance8782]

What the F I’m from the Skagit, I inspired the guy to invent the Skagit Way better than the Scandi 🤷 Just saying our fish don’t have shoulders they’ve got loins🤣😬😎

[@canuqc6686]

I, for one, find Hank only somewhat attractive.

[@dragally1]

Okay Hank, wth was that you put on under your tshirt?

[@Tjk186]

I think it's from Hank's new range of 'X Stream' fly fishing muscular support products to help you cast all day...you know, a 'Hank top' rather than a 'tank top' type vest....or it's just something he's not told us about before, kinda private...must be hard being so handsome and super attractive day in, day out...wish he'd sell me some of his allure...and, he's a global fly fishing guide guru too ...You Tube, and Avril, are real lucky to have him share his extensive artisan and fishing talents so generously...should have realized that Hank taught Avril all she knew about Spey casting...explains why she's so good...wow, what a humble guy and fly-fishing treasure🎣

[@dragally1]

@@Tjk186 More like man boob support for fighting those 47 inch fish! lol

[@TheFlyFishingFilmmaker]

Haha comedic gold! Thanks for through it out to the internet again! Loved the podcast.

[@cuz3392]

That was great. I heard you talk about it on the podcast. Thank you for sharing it.

[@kimberlyh3055]

My new favorite from Hank!

[@andrewgio1]

that was awesome had me laughing the whole time.
