Needed something like this for years. Wonderful. Thanks

[@charlesgabriel4603]

I can't put into words how this touched me. I was a fly fishing bum when I was younger slept in my truck and explored so many of these places. Life, as it often does, put other responsibilities and changed my priorities I would still get on the water some but not much. My son is now away at college and he sneaks away when he can to fly fish, and now his energy is mine. I have recently gone back to my roots, pulled out my old gear, tying more flies and all I think about is getting back to all of these places. Thank you so much for this.

[@crestonlaager3216]

We must be twins, lol. That's almost exactly my story, sleeping in my truck, traveling, fishing, etc. Then college (late bloomer) law school and responsibilities. These days I'm 56, fishing my but off and enjoying life!

[@FishinFrank]

Don’t let it end as a dream!! Us young guys still need you fellas with more experience there’s things that KZbin can’t teach us

[@onemorething100]

Loved it! No PC BS. Smoking, drinking, cursing!!

[@emilmujahodzic3603]

I’m 34..I been fishing the beaver kill and neversink and the willow since I was 5 years old with my dad..the best place on earth especially the east and west branch

[@DavieMcPhail]

If you had to go fishing anywhere in the world it would have to be in the Land of Little Rivers....Great movie..👍

[@FishinFrank]

Fantastic film!

[@mikehulsey4813]

There are a lot of people missing out, that’s all I’m going to say. This sport, hobby, or obsession truly saved my life, and made the lives of those closest to me better in many ways, and thus, just like many of the anglers shown in this film I am grateful that I slowed down enough in life to enjoy it. Great film, and hope many more see it!

[@jeffreyl7355]

thank you. i loved it, i used to go down there (roscoe) in mid to late 80.'s, stayed at the antrim (partied with a cook) go down to the dettes shop (nicest people), good memories !

[@petesteensen3392]

I started fishing many of these places as a teenager in the late 70s. An excellent documentary. I'll always be thankful for the beautiful Catskills.

[@brettgriffing2189]

Wow bud just fantastic great

[@pawoodsnwater7551]

Such a beautiful documentary! My little slice of heaven here on earth. Well done!👍🏻👏

[@lawrencew2366]

Well done…was only going to watch a few minutes and couldn’t stop till the end…

[@nonewherelistens1906]

Well done film. Fished the Catskills for many, many years. I'm on the West Coast now, but have memories that will last forever.

[@larryperkins8462]

great film ...

[@lorimeyers3839]

I live down in Orange County, but I took a ride up to the Beaverkill on a whim in early May, about 15 years ago. Got there at 2:30pm, Carin’s Pool. When I looked upstream around 3pm I saw an enormous swarm of Hendricksons rolling downstream towards me. Love the Hendrickson hatch. Also had very many good times on the lower Neversink with that fly.

[@skillexe_tv4794]

This vid deserves so much more attention.... Fkn awesome film

[@daveschlom4033]

I live in Northern California. We had a terrible spill on the Upper Sacramento in the 90s. Our waters are precious and so valuable. This was a great film. Joan is my hero, I try to improve my not so great fly casting as much as possible. Her instructional vids are incredible. Thank you for this wonderful film!

[@markedington3848]

I grew up fishing all the great waters in this documentary, this is the greatest story told of this awesome place !!

[@charlesmurray1220]

Golden!

[@bushbrava7363]

What an Excellent Documentary,I'm from British Columbia, Canada and many of us up here are feeling your same thoughts on industry and pollution on Our Beautiful river systems ....thank you very much for the making of this wonderful opportunity to watch Your Documentary 😁😁😁

[@uni_shadow164]

Loved this...I started fly fishing in 1996 at Roscoe NY! I was so Humbled by this video! God Bless you all!

[@Fishin-Ipps]

I loved this. Thank you. Helped me re-live the memories of when I began fishing the Catskills thirty years ago as a young man, and energized me to make more memories over the next thirty. Hope I see you on the water someday.

[@Nickycones44]

If you know, you know. This place changed my life. I’ll keep my eyes open for you and the folks put into this doc as they were fantastic. Great work.

[@canadiangemstones7636]

Fantastic movie. Legendary places and people.

[@jaredadkins832]

Amazing Film, well done! Encapsulates the Catskills perfectly!

[@mtoscano343]

Was looking forward to watching this beautiful film. The incessant commercial interruptions discouraged me after watching just a few minutes. I’ll get over it.

[@503rdtiger]

There are some bold claims here. No the Catskills are not the closest trout streams to Philly. The Poconos offer up some fly fishing well on par with what these streams offer and also lay claim to some stream dating to the birth of fly fishing. Not to say the fishing isn't beautiful but there are other great mountain streams with awesome trout populations an hour east of NYC and 90 minutes north of Philly.

[@Fishin-Ipps]

Truth

[@imd12b71]

i grew up here in the Catskills. love fly fishing. absolutely loved this video.

[@mikelundrigan2285]

I live in Nfld. Where Lee and Joan Wulff had fishing camps for many years! Trout fishing here is still mostly for wild fish and Brook trout still thrive here! I am so lucky to be here!

[@WildBlueDiscovery]

Nice film! Should have more views! Thanks for all the work that went into this project! Tightlines!

[@haydencody8159]

Amazing watch! Thanks a ton.

[@headycorals1220]

As i get ready to head up to oneonta for a little work vacation, ill now be sure to bring all my gear and boat.. this is wonderful to see. ❤

[@stephenkutney9626]

I believe that the film starts under the covered bridge in Downsville. I have fished many of the places in this film. You did a wonderful job.

[@catskill-mountainman]

Very informative. What a beautiful place to call home.

[@guytrout7101]

Well done. I have read stories of several individuals mentioned in the video.

[@berkshireriversflyfishing]

Fantastic video!!

[@user-rm8pd2un6o]

An amazing, honest and beautiful film. The rest of the world sees the USA through the lens of its politicians, pop stars, movies, TV celebrities and gun-wielding crooks of the big cities. Films like this remind us to look past the stereotype to see the real US. What a great bunch these real Americans are; they love their river, their fish and their culture and speak of it with reverence and class. I just hope you can save these real places and real people from the big business money men, politicians, war mongers, liars and thieves.

[@user-rm8pd2un6o]

I must add I’m a Brit, just in case anybody thought I was an American bigging-up his fellow Americans!

[@damonsobers9429]

Imagine bein the dude that says “I don’t cast to those types of rising fish.” 🤣

[@milanbogdanovic6120]

Go guy power!

[@jimr5000]

I worked for an older guy that had a place in the Catskills. He took me fishing there in 1988 or 1989. Ever since that trip, this has been my special place and where 95% of my vacation time has been spent. Been fortunate enough to fish with a couple famous anglers and got to know many of the guides. Been to the sugar shack and it was quite an experience LoL. Rob is exactly what you see. He lives to fish. Marty is a top rated guy. Ben is as good of a dude as you will ever meet and an amazing knowledge base for that system. All of this has left a mark on me and got me to guide in my free time over the last 6-7 years. Passing along what others were kind enough to share with me. I probably only have 10-15 more hatch seasons left and you can bet that I will spend them chasing some of the toughest fish you will ever find.

[@Josh-nl9vi]

Anyone know what the fly pattern book is called at 45:15?

[@jarydcutting4448]

Most important question to date..

[@TopSecretVid]

Someone here in the movie or in the comments tell me the secrets of the East Branch of the Delaware…cos I’m tired of that section kicking my asss

[@chazman4461]

Don't worry. NYC will suck the water out of the area eventually.
