Fly fishing for WILD TROUT in the winter! (Trout fishing)

[@what...5926]

Loving the gingerbread man! 😂

[@hardmanfishing]

Thanks!! hahaha had to do something for fishmas

[@barryloy5772]

My adventurous days are behind me so it’s awesome to see you in those small spaces! It’s a great moment.

[@hardmanfishing]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully I have many more adventurous days ahead of me

[@acwbulicek]

nice wild trout and im 12 years old and just started fly fishing you have helped me out so much thank you keep the good videos up!

[@kasaino]

Nothing like fishing at the local landfill 3:00

[@grob25]

I carry a contractors trash bag in the truck. When I run across trash, I pick it up. Most of the time. Hauling a tire down the creek with me, maybe not. I hate seeing trash on the waterways. It drives me crazy.

[@boxingstarcmbballer8797]

Love the gingerbread suit ! I’m thinking that was worn to a party at some point 😂

[@hardmanfishing]

Hahaha 🤣 this actually just bought it for fishmas BUT it may be worn to a party in the future

[@ccmusic2249]

*The deer after John puts on the gingerbread costume* Well...you don't see that every day

[@hardmanfishing]

I should go back dressed as a ginger bread man and see what the deer does 😂

[@thomastrain7311]

I live in Washington co Virginia and I've seen you fish some of my local waters. A lot of times i go and only take 5 or 6 beadhead prince flies, and always catch trout. If your ever down to fish south fork or some of these other awesome creeks around Damascus and the bite is slow, try my go to! They must really look like what they eat around here. Love the channel!

[@chavety]

How Cute! You're getting good GREENS fur shure!😂

[@dfmp925]

Great video. Love the way you cast with that line. May I ask what type of line you are using?

[@fortunatefishing]

This was an awesome watch ty

[@hardmanfishing]

Ty for watching

[@landonedwards7504]

You're braver than I am. I'd be scared to be seen in that onesie out in the woods. Plus if anything happened to you where you needed help, the rescuers could injure themselves by laughing so hard. Joking aside, another great video!

[@Summitstostreams]

😂 love the onsie!! 🤜

[@hardmanfishing]

Thanks 😂😂

[@Trails_trout]

Dude the costume while fishing is awsome lol

[@hardmanfishing]

LOL thanks! I’ve got a few others I’m going to use throughout fishmas 😂

[@kb8030]

Ha!! You are dedicated with the onesy….love the 12 videas in a row!!!duder…you need to creep down south to Tennessee again this spring….theres awesome trout fishing within range but would love to see you hooked up with a rockfish that scares you from being pulled out of the boat……)chucking 4oz clousers on 350gr line from 10 wts……lets go bro!!!! Invites open!!! Hit me up!!!!

[@chronicmango]

Honestly dude, it’s really encouraging to see you have rough days too haha. I be walking away from many trips empty handed and at the absolute end of the time I have available. Caught a chub on Saturday though, so I guess that’s not empty handed 😂

[@hardmanfishing]

Chubs are a given 😂 you have to catch one of those a trip or you aren’t doing it right!! But glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching

[@tonycamplin8607]

A decent fish caught in the end. What a shame about all of that rubbish dumped by that lovely stream. I suppose being so near the road is the problem.

[@hardmanfishing]

It’s partially the road and partially just that people throw their trash in the creeks 😅

[@AT-ht6ce]

Are you even using floating line or casting length all leader?

[@hardmanfishing]

I’m using a mono rig so casting all leader

[@marshallcraft25]

How do I get into fishing/flyfishing? I saw the TN video and loved it (that’s where I’m from)

[@AT-ht6ce]

I couldn’t imagine stumbling into another fisherman wearing that outfit when I’m out in the bush 😂😂😂

[@hardmanfishing]

I was partially hoping I’d run into someone and get their reaction, but simultaneously avoiding people at all cost 😂

[@highthai7]

I thought the Gingerbread man outfit might have been actual waders at first😂

[@hardmanfishing]

I wish!😂 that would have been amazing

[@pkflyfishing]

I’d love to see some ozarks trout fishing in the near future..

[@hardmanfishing]

I'd love to fish the white again this year... but we'll see

[@charlesnicholson2591]

Lol!! Elfing magic!! ❤

[@jamesprussia2797]

Lol! Did you lose a bet? Always amusing!

[@hardmanfishing]

HAHAHA that would be a hilarious idea. Maybe next time I’ll involve friends and whoever loses a bet has to wear the costume 😂

[@barryloy5772]

Great video

[@hardmanfishing]

Thanks!

[@FlyGuy1810-j3t]

very swag gingerbread suit

[@hardmanfishing]

Very swag indeed

[@skimitar2.0]

Oh no, not gum drop anything but the gum drop buttons. 😅

[@henryleslievermont6004]

Enjoyed :)

[@brandonmares84]

Do you not fish with an indicator ?

[@hardmanfishing]

Not in this situation! I usually tight line

[@johnwall9264]

Maybe you should do this but 365 days a year! Maybe a year round Xmas lol

[@hardmanfishing]

LOL I’ll pass on that! I’m just lucky I didn’t run into anyone else

[@AdamFrugoli]

Maybe clean up some of that crap?

[@hardmanfishing]

I do every year😂 several garbage bags full of

[@AdamFrugoli]

@hardmanfishing, that's terrible. People would treat such a beautiful area that way.

[@ACupofJoe0303]

When you gonna quit your job and do fishing/youtube full time?

[@hardmanfishing]

Who knows! Maybe I’ve already done it 😂

[@johndb102]

Good for you if you did. The places you fish are amazing. A lot of people from the cities are dreaming in their office about visiting nature so regularly. Thanks for the nice videos. Im just waiting for you to record in Europe. For example: soça river in Slovenia.

[@ACupofJoe0303]

@@hardmanfishing you deserve it man, I’ve been watching you for years now and was always impressed to see you make such good content and work a full time job
