Big fish super. Great, you are living in paradise.

Haha! The footage around the 5:38 mark looks very familiar...I really enjoyed seeing the rest of the beat that we fished on that Friday. Great stuff as always. Best of luck to you and Kresten on the next adventure and let me know when Vol. 5 will be available.

[@marcobottcher3813]

Absolut great,I come back febuary 2014,so I really like to have some days with you. greatings from Luxembourg

[@mikefsher]

Thanks Silvio. Very simple answer to that question: We fish to wary large Brown trout in very clear water and 5x tippet (5lbs) is fairly standard, if you don't follow with a high rod they will wrap you around a rod or branch and bust you off.

[@mikefsher]

Cheers Enty! Must catch up soon and cast a rod ourselves...

[@ChrisWalklet]

Nice video. I hope to get over there some day. Greetings from New York.

[@capitanmadrillas1945]

Precioso video.¿que es lo que os poneis en vez de vadeador?

[@rainier16oz]

Aloha Mike- Thanks again for taking my Dad and I out for a few days! We're already planning a return trip in 2014... It is great to see the footage of Kresten's epic battle with that brown after you described it to us but wouldn't he have been better off using my tactic of running down the middle of the rapids in pursuit of that brownie?

[@mikefsher]

No worries David! You mean running down the middle after hooking him with a team of huge tungsten nymphs!! :-) Be great to see you again next year :)

[@gorila1958]

[@mikefsher]

Thanks Greg. That was the point of this clip - it's not all plain sailing and some days you are happy to just get a few on the bank.

[@deadtechnics]

I love your videos, you sure live the life Mike haha, I had a quick question though. What are those "wading shorts" that I see you guys wearing in your videos?

[@clairewilliams4802]

+Local Outdoors Mike didn't seem to reply, out fishing I suppose. They are just nylon shorts...often used by trampers, and quick drying

[@deadtechnics]

Thank you for the reply! You wouldn't happen to know what they are wearing as leggings as well do you? Thanks again! :)

[@mikefsher]

+Local Outdoors Just standard fishing/hiking shorts and i use cycling or sports 'compression' leggings. And yes, been away fishing a lot so sorry for the tardy reply

[@deadtechnics]

Thank you for the reply and not a problem I can relate :)

[@SnapBackCollector211]

[@mikefsher]
