[@fishandflywithgus]

Thank you so much Kia!!!! (I assume you're a Harmin subscriber? Isn't he the best?!?!) I'm glad you enjoyed some catch and release fishing and there's LOTS more content to come....

[@bonniekaye]

*Beautiful locations!* Thank you both for sharing! I *love* fishing! 👍☺👌

[@fishandflywithgus]

thank YOU for watching Bonnie!! And if you like fishing you've come to the right place. haha! Ever tried fly fishing before?

[@bonniekaye]

@@fishandflywithgus You're welcome! Never tried...! I *love* catfish!! But I also love to watch people fishing... love the water! ☺

[@daveseibert]

Thank you...this is great information about the White Mountains locations without any BS...Pure Arizona.

[@teamlosi11]

Thanks Dave! You’re right. It’s an epic part of Arizona, which I have come to thoroughly appreciate.

[@HikerT]

Wow! There is more to Arizona than I realized. Beautiful!

[@fishandflywithgus]

So much more! Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment T! See YOU on the trails soon...

[@L.K.S.R.]

Arizona is mountains and canyons.... not desert like everyone thinks.... hopefully you can come out here to experience our state 😁

[@HikerT]

@@L.K.S.R. I will be! I'm turning 50 in January and my husband and I are going to spend a couple days at the Grand Canyon and a few days in Sedona. I'm looking forward to seeing some mountains and canyons for sure and get some hiking in!

[@L.K.S.R.]

@@HikerT safe travels 😌

[@ToddEWalnuts]

It’s beautiful out there, thanks for taking us along for the ride. I look forward to seeing where you’ll take us next. Thumbs up man 👍🏻 Your camera clarity and filming technique is A+ quality.

[@fishandflywithgus]

Thank you so much Todd! Lots of room to grow and hopefully improve! The sequence of locations and timing is going to be non-chronological, but LOTS more coming soon...

[@christianstevens9804]

Nicely done. 🤓

[@fishandflywithgus]

Thank you Sir Stevens! Can't wait to get YOU back into some episodes here, hopefully this summer!!!!! Fish On!

[@uninananimity]

I'd been excited waiting for your next adventure video. And here it is. Like everyone else wrote: Simply beautiful. Beauty in every shot and word you shared with us. I don't think most people associate such locales and pro fishers with Arizona. Thanks for taking us along. Almost as good from the couch the way you capture these.

[@fishandflywithgus]

Thanks UniI!! And you're right, there's a large percentage of the state that's covered by pine trees and cool water. Such a contrast to the desert ecosystems. So glad you're enjoying the outdoors from the comfort of your own home! =)

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

I feel like most textbooks and online articles always paint arizona as a complete desert. But that is not the case at all! Nice job man

[@esthergustafson5408]

Right?! So much more to explore. When are you visiting out AZ crime locations?!

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

@@esthergustafson5408 I will be there probably in July. :) Will let you know once it gets closer.

[@fishandflywithgus]

Thanks Infamous! Hope you get to see some of the many shades of AZ one day...

[@jasonchristian958]

Sounds good! I'm in! Live in Cheney WA currently. Where are you?

[@carsonkeller1530]

Nice! I’m in Kirkland WA

[@TucsonArizona]

I love the White Mountains! Arizona is beautiful and we actually have some great fishing considering we’re a big desert in a huge chunk of our state! 😆 Thanks for sharing! Cool channel! I’m following!

[@fishandflywithgus]

thank you Tucson!! There is SO MUCH MORE to Arizona than a lot of people think (Shhhhhh!!! lol). I appreciate you following and hope to see you around. Might have to do some more Tucson filming one of these days! Maybe Saguaro National Park or the Biosphere 2.

[@TucsonArizona]

Totally true! Arizona is actually a lot cooler than people realize! But yeah, you’re right...we shouldn’t let that secret out! 😆 Have a great rest of your weekend!

[@lucianosilvestri8561]

I'm headed there this weekend...what fly's where you useing

[@fishandflywithgus]

Hey hey Luciano! So sorry for the late reply. How did you do? I believe we were throwing woolly buggers and copper johns other small nymphs and streamers of the like. Keep in touch!

[@lucianosilvestri8561]

@@fishandflywithgus hey I did great....caught about 4 good sized one's!!!

[@teamlosi11]

Might be in AZ next month even

[@catherineflanagan3392]

No but I get things wrong 🇮🇪

[@eugenefisher2566]

Hey you have a cousin that works in Monroe by the river? He found out I fish and sent me here. Good content and do those fish actually taste like rainbows? I'm subscribing, so keep tight lines. - Geno

[@teamlosi11]

Hey Eugene! Which cousin is this? Haha! I appreciate you joining the adventure. I’m from Monroe, WA and live and die for outdoor adventures and nature immersion 🔥🔥 thanks again! 👊🏻

[@tonybutler8811]

Absolutely beautiful Gus, really enjoyed this one and a beautiful large trout caught by your wife. Also loved the Wolf, I support Wolverhampton Wanderers my local football team who are nicknamed the Wolves🐺🐺 can’t wait for the next one. Stay safe Bro; 🇬🇧

[@fishandflywithgus]

Thanks Tony! Cool that your local football team has "WOLF" in the name! GO TEAM!!! And I'll see you on the next episode my friend...

[@SledorFish]

Those were some beautiful trout streams.

[@fishandflywithgus]

thanks SledOrFish. Ever fished for Arizona Trout? It's a challenge but also potentially incredibly rewarding.

[@SledorFish]

@@fishandflywithgus I have never been to Arizona. Most of my fishing has been in Washington and northern BC but my parents do the snow bird thing so I may visit there one of these winters.
