Anyone else see the fish come up on the right at 4:33 and hang around a while? Awesome video too Ollie!

Nice work Ollie and co. There is something special about watching fish being caught euro nymphing, especially those big browns

Hey Ollie, Cool video. Look at 4:55 there is a nice fish at your feet to the left of the guy fishing bottom right of the screen ? Fish you caught earlier ?

What a day. Well done 🎣👍

[@anthonyclark6118]

Awesomeness. Good times! Treasured lifelong memories being made. Great to see you young guns giving different methods a good run on gin clear SI waters! . Cut my craft in the “9 ft 5w stiff rod era” and tramped many a SI beat. Stand back, shoot the rig from behind!!!Fascinating to see you EN….stealthy! 😮

[@liammcdonald6808]

Hey mate awesome video, in these warmer months where are the fish usually sitting in the water column?

[@olliebassettflyfishing]

When it warms up into the summer the fish start to feed more off the surface usually, although it depends a bit day to day

[@JM73-s3y]

Great Video! What's the harness system you guys are using to hold your C&F boxes?

[@olliebassettflyfishing]

Camera strap

[@huntfish158]

What weight tippet do you use in these backcountry rivers?

[@olliebassettflyfishing]

@@huntfish158 it depends on the level of fishing pressure. On this trip early in the fishing season we used 0.16-0.18mm mostly, so around 6/7 pound breaking strain
