Just a little advise from one fly fisherman to another. Im not sure what kind of fly rod your using, but you may want to go to 5 weight or lighter. On water that small i may use a 3 weight honestly. When your fishing creeks that skinny and clear, you may want to try and go lighter leaders. I would start at 5x and maybe go to 6x or 7x. And make your leader a little longer, if those fish see fisherman with any regularity you may need a 12 foot leader and still crouch down or hide your silhouette when casting. I dont know the creek, but im guessing there are mayflies, caddis and possibly some versions of stone flies there. You may want to try nymphs of those. And if it's sunny, stay away from flashy bead heads. You make great videos and i love watching them. Tight lines from Montana.

[@jeffhough7460]

Believe it or not I do good on small wooly boogers this time of year here in Michigan nymphs and similar small dark Flys are always a good starting point

[@Sauron124]

I second this advice, for smaller fish and smaller streams 5wt or below is ideal, 5wt basically usable everywhere so i recommend that, 5wt can also use most flies effectively. 5wt’s are essentially the all around rod’s

[@gbutler8949]

​@jeffhough7460 As soon as I typed it, I knew I forgot a fly and Wooley bugger is it. That fly works everywhere. It mimics everything. Good catch

[@Twin-Turbo_19]

You sound like my grandfather honestly XD

[@Sauron124]

@@gbutler8949 they sure do, wooly buggers work on bass, trout of any size and species, and even panfish, in my opinion the wooly bugger is the most productive fly

[@geoffreyjones2000]

I've had many good days fishing, on a great day I actually catch a fish

[@jamesmikesell5458]

I think I have watch all your videos. Never miss them thank you sir for all your hard work. I'm in the north west I just float a night crawler for creek fishing

[@OFF_ROADIN_BOYS]

Btw the fly at the top is called a rainbow warrior which is a machine at catching fish even on cold days

[@OFF_ROADIN_BOYS]

At least it is where I am from

[@kierra_mist]

I was the first person to ever subscribe to 618 fishing ❤best channel on the net honestly 😊

[@renatobarbosa5985]

I really enjoy when you fish streams and ponds. Even more if you do use various natural baits and I do not care if you catch the biggest or no fish at all. Thanks for sharing!

[@tombombadil6591]

Little late jumping into comments, but always wonderful to see you post Nick! Keep it up! 618 fishing for life!

[@joetheagent]

Another amazing looking creek. I really like the places you takes us. you made that fly rod look too easy even with the problems you had... I can barely cast a fly rod and have almost no idea the names of the flies. "We got the fly rod snagged almost immediately"... yeah that's how mine would have gone too. Thanks for taking us along, Nick! Hope you have a great Holiday! Cheers!

[@robertflint4115]

A bad day of fishing is still better than a day at work 🤘😎.

[@dogleg]

I know I've said it before, but that creek is my favorite place you fish, Nick. It is such a beautiful place

[@brianlewis7632]

Blessings 🙌🏿 Kansas City is Watching 👀

[@RobertAshmead-bg2lw]

I have mentioned several times how I miss the older videos of the tiny creek fishing catching a bunch of small fish with tiny lures this video reminded me of those and was very enjoyable even though you were trying for bigger fish Thank you

[@davidwilkinson333]

Thoroughly frowned apon in the UK, but a drifting worm (night crawler), especially if the water has some colour, is a potent weapon, particularly drifting into slack water or back eddies. Great vids and scenery, Nick, and ever the optimist 👍 Many thanks and Happy Xmas

[@johndyer9232]

On this particular body of water in Missouri, anglers are only allowed to use artificials. None of which are allowed to be soft plastics.

[@robertspangler4237]

Bass masters or river monsters got nothing on you! I love your enthusiasm! Your love for the sport is inspiring.🤩🤩🤩

[@RippieFarmer]

4:14 ❤ thank you for adding in some of the other identifiers for this strain.

[@TheSteelpony]

The artistry of your cinematography just keeps improving! Bravo!

[@DuriensBane]

Few flies i found work really REALLY well for smaller fish that are wild. Size 18-20 micro eggs, Midge pupa size 20, and peridgons size 16-18. Colors may vary depending on the area, sometimes you just gotta throw everything at them till something kicks them off.

[@petersmith6974]

Watching from Yorkshire England. Our trout season is closed right now until mid March. Love hunting trout on dry fly. Good videos you make 👍🏻

[@alandaniel1082]

Thanks for another great year just enjoy your videos so much. Have a merry Christmas and happy New Year Nick and family.

[@papeep2694]

It's hard to beat a Panther Martin for trout. Figure out the colors for the conditions and they just catch fish. Thank you for sharing your adventures.

[@pinstripingbybear.]

@1:42 when you are picking out the flies you are going to fish with, stop and move some rocks in and near the water and look around and see what kind of bugs are moving and what you can match your flies up to

[@troybradley9188]

Your camera work is outstanding love your show ❤

[@kurtbargar1618]

Merry Christmas to all the fisherman whom visit this channel, thanks Nick

[@stevesalvage1089]

Beautiful fish nick , nice location too , thanks for sharing !

Great stuff Nick thanks. Merry Christmas and happy new Year from me and mine to you and yours.

[@mikepollock8295]

Another slow day of fishing but hey you did catch 3 baby rainbow trout! Have a great Christmas Nick! Take care and stay safe! See you next adventure!

[@thomasprince4992]

[@monnensam]

Merry Christmas Nick! Great video

[@lyserg1k]

[@Curry_Prodz18]

Great video nick keep up the great work!

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

Where have you been???

[@Diffy112]

Nice video Nick! Happy holidays

[@user-qt7fh2lz1m]

Try using a dry fly. There was a hatch of flies in the video. Choose a dry fly that closely matches the hatch. It's really fun watching the trout go after the fly.

[@guylelanglois6642]

Beats working for a living. Merry Christmas Nick

[@user-yt9fx8si2p]

I love yr videos i love to watch in the evenings after wrk cant beat it cheers buddy from wales uk

[@chadbirch8]

Hell ya another great video 🤘

Merry Christmas, Nick 😀

[@mrmilo5203]

Enjoyed the content Nick👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽

[@user-bc6cs1fj6y]

Panther Martin-I just bought some on eBay UK, really pleased to see you catch with one!

[@harleycrouch4129]

Your great at editing!!!

[@08Kaylee]

Panther Martin for the win. It's my favorite trout lure since the 70's

[@corkmankins1882]

I used the panther martin spinner when in Colorado fishing in the early 1970,s.. always did very well

[@dannyhanley8927]

Merry Christmas Nick

[@Tri-ZF450]

It’s crazy to see that there are some of my local trout species elsewhere in the country, awesome video as always

[@beercheersrccrawlers]

Awesome. I lived near McCloed lake in the Eastern Sierras and my PB is 16". Beautiful fish!

[@albertnigretti4042]

Merry Christmas Nick to you and yours🎅🍷🍺🎄

[@darleneconage9239]

❤❤❤ happy holidays luv you

[@caddisfly9651]

Another great time. Even a little fish is better than none.

[@paulyp36]

I like using a dry fly for a bobber and a longer leader, especially when you see a little hatch like that going on. I find the bobbers make way too much commotion when they hit that low, clear water.

[@RickJames-qq1re]

Awesome! Another video

[@moritztzume8504]

great video - all the best from germany

[@boxy8438]

Ever thought about staying the weekend out there? Couple free camp grounds not to far away. And just a little farther out camp areas in a small secluded lake and or slightly larger creek.

[@austinhaacke67]

The top fly is a Rainbow Warrior designed by Lance Egan. Good fly!

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

Sounds like SOA music, sounds good m8

[@zwedenhuizen]

Trout and epic music: Win!

[@gofishingkidsfishnrepeat1415]

Love you man me and my dad love you

[@addicted2fishing119]

The tug is the drug ‼️🍻

[@RippieFarmer]

That black/yellow with gold blade panther martin is a mainstay in my trout trays, been times ive questioned why i bother with any other spinner baits😂 Back up if that one doesnt work is a their holo "rainbow trout" patterned micro.

[@Mooseberryhollow]

That’s gotta be the most beautiful-rare trout I’ve ever seen!!

[@arjanmiller]

love your videos

[@kkutube1972]

Good tune.

[@carolmalone6442]

U should try fishing at John poole middle school in Poolesville MD I caught a 50lb catfish

[@kennycook359]

As always great video my brother! You know I love you bro. I heard you say that you had left your small lure tackle box the last time you were there. Its a shame that it wasn't still there.! It would have been cool for you to have found it. But if i heard you correctly, then who ever found it. I hope they have as much fun with it as you did lol! Love from the ole hillbilly Kenny, peace and god speed my brother! See you next Thursday!!!!!!

[@keithkillion4245]

No,he forgot lure box at home

[@WingmanJohnny]

Great video

[@arjibackid]

Wau strek bro... Mantap

[@Daniel-nr6iw]

Looks like fun. We have rainbow trout in some rivers around where i live. Ive never caught any on a fly rod but panther martins and rooster tails produce quite well for me. Off topic, whats the song playing around 5:20?

[@williamstewartgemstonesfis1148]

Try looking under rocks to see what lives there . It will help you to decide which flies to fish

[@straydog4072]

Great catches !! Can you add the links to the music please ? I wanna add them to my fishing playlist haha !

[@reesejames9757]

Awesome fish !!!!!!

[@CalebplaysGT]

Omg I love your videos

[@user-vx7sb5bm5q]

I your opening when you cross into Sanit Louis is the Mississippi river really that low, was that a recent picture ?

[@charlesdavis596]

May wanna try salmon eggs or can corn on a gold hook , at least that's what we've caught some rainbow with , my brother caught a 3 pounder rainbow with a roostertail , great video's and good luck

[@danrich9794]

Nice fishing, what the heck did you walk buy on the way in?

[@richarddangles69]

Rumor has it they call him 314 fishing some days.. sneaky sneaky

[@fishingAbdya6108]

Come back and listen to the excitement 👍 9:36

[@TheFishinMortician]

Looks like a tricky spot for sure, but that keeps the pressure down!

[@1TakoyakiStore]

I recall reading an older fishing book where it mentioned that large trout just go nuts over freshwater sculpin. No idea how to get your hands on some but perhaps giving those a try?

[@davidanderson7802]

they make sculpin streamers, i do well on them and seen big fish caught on them

[@briankindt2350]

We have a sub species of cutthroat that look almost the same as that with the orange on the tips of the fins. Hike in and fish wild Mountain streams for cutthroat.

[@rchrdjms62]

Thanks again. By the way since you're in the area, have you been to Zombie Road?

[@davidnapper8097]

We all have visions of monsters every time we load up the gear and head for water . An hour after we get there we're just praying we don't get skunked ! No skunk , beautiful rare fish , awesome creek all to yourself , the fishin gods heard your prayer , looked like a great day to me 😎👍👍

I'm fishing in the STL area for the next month. Join me on the big river to hunt some mighty Blue Gatofish sometime

[@NobleKorhedron]

Anyone who reads this, can you please let me know what kind of lure Nick's squarebill micro crankbait is; I can't tell what brand/model at all, and would like to try and obtain a couple of copies... Also, are Panther Martin only available in the US/Canada...? I mentioned it to my local tackle shop, but they hadn't heard of it...

[@mifisherman656]

That underwater view of snags- did anyone else see the huge snapper?

I like your videos more when you fly fishing !

[@sameerstackleboxtales]

Hi bro you should come to south africa in November f9r the muddy run it happens I'm the vaal river every year

[@stacieangalvinmcshooter2556]

I wish your videos where longer

[@wyeteepaleface9199]

I have fished tiny creeks in Montana my whole life. You need to be ALOT quieter near the water. Your voice, the color of your clothes and equipment, and even walking across loose rock will spook wiser fish. Especially if the area sees high fishing pressure. I gave you the same advice the last time you had a rough day on small water. Try it, my friend. Pretend you are hunting a deer/elk in your approach. Still love all your videos. Thanks for sharing with us.
