Spring Creek Fly Fishing for Brown Trout - 2 Spring Creeks on 1 Incredible Afternoon Fly Fishing

[@miharus9322]

I'm a Japanese living in Japan, and I love mountain stream fishing. Your fishing field is calm and full of nature. When I see the beautiful scenery that makes me forget the flow, I feel like I want to leave my body to nature and fish slowly.

[@jensenflyfishing]

Thanks for sharing this. It's wonderful and deeply affecting how our experiences on the water make us all feel. Through the years we've sure been shown by "nature" just how slow we need to go with our fishing.

[@mathewbrust398]

I never fail to be blown away by the footage you two get. As an entomologist I also love the coverage of local wildlife as well.

[@jensenflyfishing]

We have visited some incredible spots and found some great opportunities to capture nature at its best. We truly love it and are inspired by it! This day was no exception!

[@shafffisher]

I'm currently stuck at home recovering from surgery after fracturing my tibial plateau and seeing you guys fish where I grew up and cut my teeth has brightened my day. Those little creeks are my favorite little place on this planet. I spent hours on those creeks as a teenager, hooking every wire, floating weed and branch imaginable. They taught me about humility ,timing and patience. Very difficult, intimate little creeks with some very large trout

[@jensenflyfishing]

And an amazing childhood it would have been a few decades back before us tourists and the agriculture industry ran that country over! Just wonderful memories of rural life in a spectacular region of the S Island, hope it brought you back to standing in those waters. It was really interesting talking to the original kand owner that broke the hummocks into that valley finally just last year. Now long retired and living in town it was neat to happen chance meet up and talk of how it opened up, the 'just married' text on the old original house he grew up in, married in, etc. Wonderful life through there 😊❤️

[@shafffisher]

@jensenflyfishing sounds like you met Brian. I lived in that house in the early 90s believe it or not. Mum and dad had no money and rented that place from him while trying to make a go at farming. The message atop the roof could be about my parents actually. I still live in the valley and work the family farm. Those are our heifers in the background over the boundary fence in front of the pine trees. There's just something special about those silent spring creeks.

[@jensenflyfishing]

@@shafffisher yes! I think he mentioned the just married was for he and his wife. He was raised in that house by my memory and then they lived there upon being married. The whole setting is just the definition of fly fishing romance. We began poking about only back in 2005 or so in our second trip to NZ. That must have been something growing up in there. Love that back road to the coast too (deliberately coy here to not give onlookers exact location). So much life, so many time-lapse clouds thanks to that coastal influence. Man. Here's hoping you have a speedy and comfortable recovery. ❤️

My brother and I have just finished sharing in this incredible and masterful piece of art! At the risk of saying something that might be somewhat off putting, we must say that many of your works have been a spiritual experience for us. The combination of photography choices of music and dialogue are wonderful and trigger in us a deep and profound appreciation and expansive wonder of the pure mystery and magic which is this planet. So incredible that we find ourselves in the deep of space on this sacred and beautiful planet, a garden, and eden which is glorious beyond words to describe. Your works of art and your spirits in the midst are a true gift of life to this world. Thank you so very much from us both for what you are bringing into this world at this time!

[@jensenflyfishing]

Thank you for taking the time to reply with such a kind reply. We appreciate hearing feedback as we do try to include these kinds of shots and moments with music in order to immerse the viewer as best we can, while blending the how-to component. The reality is we're not a pop-culture channel but more focused on how you see it, that's our goal. :) Great to hear it is received this way! :) Dave & Amelia

[@Karkawry1970]

What a rich, visual treat. Thank you, has an almost dream like soporific quality to it this film, lovely :)

[@jensenflyfishing]

:) So glad that came through. Some of those moments in time simply resonate in the mind's eye exactly as that. Hard to believe they happened and are possible, yet the footage doesn't lie. :)

[@joncothranphotography9375]

Outstanding camera work, editing and fishing! Thanks so much for letting us tag along!

[@jensenflyfishing]

Great to hear. We actually fish and film with the audience in mind. It's one of the pleasures of being out here.... finding an engaging way to film and fish to bring everyone along 🥳

[@Dorothyinstead]

This is the epitome of fly fishing for trout! The scenery, the intro, the editing, the sound...it is perfection on every level. Thank you for the upload.

[@jensenflyfishing]

Thank you for your this mega does of positivity to what we do! It pleases us to no end to know how well this particular video has been received.

[@MFamilyFishing]

I live in Western NY, some of the best trout fishing in the country with so many tributaries, lakes, and opportunities. As anglers, sure we love to fish. The feelings of serenity and respect for the beauty of our environment that surrounds is just as attractive, just as meaningful, and does feed our spirit with admiration for God's creations. I thoroughly enjoyed your professionally made video, and experienced that same serenity I would have if I was there myself. Thank you very much for this. You fed my soul today. 🤗

[@jensenflyfishing]

This is fantastic for us to hear. It's certainly not all about the fishing and it never has been for us. When we can truly connect other people like yourself to the beauty, the solitude, the meaningful moment with a bird or a scene that inspires and feeds your spirit in some way, then we feel like we have a winner of a video. Thanks for taking the time to watch and sharing here.

[@tryptaman4315]

I’ve never found a KZbin fishing page that takes this much time on b roll and watching you guys break down each and every fish is AMAZING. I’m a bass angler and you guys have me itching to catch a brownie

[@jensenflyfishing]

Well that's super cool. To get you interested in another species means we've actually found a way to capture your attention and that's always what we hope to do. The b-roll is such a big part of the whole experience when we're out there, so we always want to include that side of things. Thanks for stopping in to share your thoughts.

[@vintagecyclesales5158]

I usually don´t watch the longer videos, 25 minutes is a long time to sit and watch. But this one, the photography and light, the quality and quantity of the fish, just outstanding. Thank you for being the poets in my dreams.

[@jensenflyfishing]

That's wonderful to hear. This is more the direction we'll be heading over the coming year - even deeper into sense of place and letting it be while (hopefully) getting into a few nice trout. We hear you tho, longer videos are hard to sit and watch but watching on the KZbin app on smart tvs is where this video really shines :) Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, they're appreciated :)

Thank you from Oz, one of the best fishing videos I have ever seen! Beautiful scenery and also love you music selection by Slpstrm, thank you for helping me discover them!! Can't wait for the season to open here and head for the Snowy Mountains!

[@roderickcampbell2105]

Hi Book. Couldn't agree more. I'd rather catch smaller trout on a small stream than larger ones on big water. This was a wonderful video.

I get these in my recommendations and click, soon as I see Orvis in the tag my heart sinks, I know its going to be good, too good, I will never get to fish there or places like this, if I win the lotto perhaps, my numbers won't come up until after I am in a box, the location, the water and the fish, its something you just dream about.

Thank you for watching and appreciating how we film. Everything just came alive for us on these couple spring creeks. It just had to be captured:)

[@big1dog23]

Excellent. Classic SC footage. I found it interesting that some of the larger freestone streams in NZ actually have spring creek headwaters. We came upon one by accident, but it was choked with log jams from the backwaters of a reservoir, we only found a few places worth fishing. There was another on the West side of the S Island that was nice.

[@jensenflyfishing]

A special couple streams for sure. The discovery of those places are what make the whole fly fishing experience so worth it.

[@johnandpennyrichards9256]

Great video, love the ones where the focus is on the fish, just watching it prior to the cast and hopefully the take.

[@jensenflyfishing]

We'll be aiming to hone in on this a little more, tied in with the scenery and sense of place in the next year :) Glad you enjoyed this one

[@TimmoMcGinn]

Nice to see this from your West Coast Library! The cello matched the mood of the stream and the light beautifully. This season I am focussing more on those creeks (with some nice outcomes) while I figure out the extent of the flood damage in Canterbury. A good reminder to take a day off work this week and head over!

[@jensenflyfishing]

:) Tried to do the setting a sense of justice even tho most of how we filmed was high frame rate with no audio. We managed! They are wonderful streams and some have a few more trout than advertised yet. Others have been ravaged by Ag. The neat thing is just going and poking about and getting your nipples wet as you sink through the watercress! It'll be interesting to see how Canterburian waters bounce back. The mains should be about right come Christmas and the tributaries may offer surprises as refuges from it all. Hoping for the best! And leave a few for us should we be ever so fortunate to get in there late season... yeah, likely nah, but you have to dream! :)

[@TimmoMcGinn]

@@jensenflyfishing I don’t know if you’ve hit it or not but there is one little trib of a bigger stone bottomed creek that has quicksand like bog when you get to the fringes. Frighteningly deep but unsurpisingly seems to hold the best fish! Makes the nipple tickling cress seem like a bargain. I will give you a wee update on the Canterbury back country soon. Got a few easterlies coming :)) looking forward to more back catalogue stuff with electric fences and bogs

Great video and fantastic fish, also some good skills as it wasn't always easy with all the plant and deep wading. Hopefully I get to fish such a stream one day. I only have a very tiny creek to fish where a 12 incher is already a rare fish and most are well under 10 but with my 3 wt rod it is still fun. But with such fish it must be totally different

[@jensenflyfishing]

Those deeper springs (let alone the electric fences) can certainly eat you up if you let them! Hopefully you find one that connects with you someday. But, rare fish regardless of size are something to be valued and going after them with a light rod like you do and experiencing the joy of that is equally of value:)

[@dominikk8547]

@@jensenflyfishing Thanks yeah, catching a 12 incher in a tiny stream where most fish are like 6-8 inch is definitely exiting too, especially with a light rod and tippet and I do value it, many don't have trout opportunities at all. Getting into the nature and catching some fish is the most important thing anyway, even if it is not a trophy. But still one day catching a 20+ incher would be nice, maybe I can do a travel trip:). But flyfishing is fun regardless, even going for panfish or small other fish can be fun if you are not in a trout region

[@jensenflyfishing]

@@dominikk8547 all of what you said - and the reality is that size is irrelevant if it means nothing to you anyway... and even moreso size is only relevant to the water we fish as a 10" golden trout in full color might be the real fish of a lifetime whereas a 15lb mouse eating NZ monster might leave you feeling empty in how you have to catch it (deep nymphing then hold on until it succumbs). It's all only relative to what we project and those other values are of highest importance :)

Nice to see you back in NZ. Looked like an awesome day and some great fish 👍 It won’t be long now?

[@jensenflyfishing]

Ah, we have a mountain of footage to sort yet so this was a good one to edit for the mind's eye. We'll see how the vaccinations and subsequent debates in NZ go and what the borders do thereafter. Always hoping for the best!

Wow, what gorgeous water; you must feel privileged to fish such amazing water! I agree this is a truly special film and I love your passion, not only for each fish, but for the environment in total. Outta curiosity, on average how much time do you put in to get a minute of such stunning footage? I guessing a good bit...

Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, 100%. The world has changed since we filmed this and it brings back so many great memories. We'll hopefully get there again one day and it was such an amazing experience to fly fish New Zealand 13 years running. We somehow made life work to be able to do it and we consider ourselves extremely fortunate. I would say that it took me about 14 hrs total to put this video together - so maybe 45 to 50 minutes per 1 edited, complete minute? That's about right on these videos. All told, on the timeline was 11hrs of footage to make 24 minutes. Heaps on the cutting floor. :)
