Some days you just can't fish clean. It's good to get out and practice and make those mistakes when they don't matter. I also ran into Lance Egan (and Brig) on the river.

You guys are hardcore, man! Out fishing while it’s snowing!! I watch these videos like a freakin’ hawk tryin’ to learn from you. I’m curious to see what kind of net you end up with.

[@TroutFlies]

After talking to Lance about it, I'm going to test drive a Frabill for now and see how I feel about it.

[@user-xi2wk3vl9z]

Great video bob! Cool that ya ran into the fff guys! Really love watching you nymph, you have have such a good presentation! Any info you could give me on starting competitive fishing?

[@TroutFlies]

Yeah, check out the flycomps.com site once in awhile and see what events/qualifiers show up in your area.

[@blackflycreations]

Good job breaking down the water Bob! Your flies always catch fish and your presentations on point.👌Cool to see Brig & Lance out there👍 Take care dude, Steve

[@TroutFlies]

Thanks Steve. Hopefully some warmer weather and better (or different) fishing ahead.

[@thedesertoutdoorsmen5166]

Great video man! Cool to see the FFF crew out there!

[@TroutFlies]

Thanks. Always good to run into those guys.

[@stevemd8947]

You caught some very nice fish. Great job.

[@TroutFlies]

Thanks Steve. Going to the Expo?

[@stevemd8947]

@@TroutFliesYes - I plan to introduce myself to you Friday morning. See you then.

[@lfactoid]

Could you do some tutorial vids? You make it look so easy great video

[@TroutFlies]

I have a few older ones way back in the playlists, but I always need to get better at explaining thought processes and decision making on the vlogs too. I should incorporate a dedicated teaching segment into the videos though. That is a good idea.

[@xam1289]

I like your doing--thanks!@@TroutFlies

[@tl56kmair]

You always catch so many fish. I need to bump into you one day so you can give me some pointers. First pointer, what kind of snowshoes are those? They look much lighter than the ones i have.

[@geraldyoung5868]

Those are Atlas helium-trail snowshoes.

[@tl56kmair]

@@geraldyoung5868 thanks!! Are they as light as they look?

[@geraldyoung5868]

Not sure, but they look pretty light in the one video when he picks them up. Weight is listed as 3 lbs 2 oz for the 23”.

[@tl56kmair]

@@geraldyoung5868 thanks again. That's what I was thinking. The ones I have have the aluminum frame and old snowboarding style bindings which are kind of a pain with cleated boots.

[@xam1289]

Nice day on the stream. Good tips. How cold is the water?

[@TroutFlies]

Water was about 39*F

[@RGJR02]

Is that the 1wt?

[@TroutFlies]

it is. Diamondback Ideal Nymph 10' 1wt.

[@xam1289]

Are you mostly seeing the take or feeling the take?

[@TroutFlies]

I see the take versus feel the take about 90% of the time. If you're feeling every take on the Euro Rig you're generally too tight to the rig or leading too much.

[@xam1289]

I don't understand being too tight to the rig. However, my eyesight may not have what it takes to see or recognize a take. Very much appreciate your videos!@@TroutFlies​

[@buddynash]

Man, I’m sorry, but to have a counter on you fishing, that’s not cool, not a fan of that, otherwise , I enjoyed the video

[@TroutFlies]

I get it. I rarely bring it out in normal fishing, but for practice it's easier than relying on memory. Even though I still screwed it up in this video.
