Small Stream Trout Tips & Techniques | Drift Outfitters

[@AlanpittsS2b]

I love this channel. I got into fly fishing about a year and a half ago and I don’t know anyone to learn from so this is about it

[@russellpeters21]

Thank you for the very informative video. Rob, it was cool that we got to see your experience with the fish jumping towards you on camera.

[@robreid1543]

Excellent segment with lots of great tips about presentation, flies and casting techniques by Rob from Drift Outfitters. Nothing beats fishing small streams. Highly recommended

[@AssbrahamLincolon]

Excellent video as always! I hope my winter full of watching The New Fly Fisher will pay off in productivity this summer.

[@leemowers9395]

nice segment with tips. Thanks for sharing.

[@islanderreels1903]

Great stuff guys. Great to see you shine a light on this underappreciated fishery!

[@lenburge]

Very informative and beautifully shot. Thanks!

[@izaakwaltonflyfishingclub]

This is what small stream fishing in Ontario is all about. Great video. Thanks

[@aperfectdriftguidecompany]

Great show guys, I loved seeing the aerial views of some of my favorite sections of river and your approach to putting fish in the net was spot on..

[@robcesta9476]

Thanks Graham! It is a load of fun shooting with the crew at the New Fly Fisher, as you know, and we're glad we could share the tips on landing fish... we've heard of far too many fish lost at the net, so we thought we'd share that tip!

[@exploreflyfishing]

Rob is fun to fish with; that is for sure! You are great in this video! Way to go!!

[@kristian.sacco.]

Great episode, Rob was great and that brown trout leap towards him was fun to watch

[@RodMurray]

Nicely done Bill and Rob!

[@Mr777manbearpig]

Great to see Bill helping out the newbies these days

[@ryanclancy4955]

love all the cedar along the margins of that stream

[@dbassman27]

Thanks for the great video. I have been fishing the waters portrayed for probably close to 25 years. It should be noted that most of the streams in this part of Ontario are located on private property, so permission is required to fish. Please don't trespass as that negatively impacts all of us fly-fishers. The fishing on these streams can be very challenging, but also quite rewarding. A little research on public access can go along way (it also helps to avoid weekends and the first week after the season opens). It also needs to be stressed that all of the fish on these streams are wild, so please practice catch and release. I know that there are still people who fish the stream portrayed with worms and eat the trout they catch. That's okay with me as that is the law (these streams aren't designated catch and release), and these people are locals who have lived in the area all of their lives. But those of us who are fly fisher should be careful and treat these trout with respect. These waters are an incredible treasure, and it would not take much to ruin the fishing for everyone.

[@farmerbob4554]

I like Bill Spicer. Seems like a decent guy.

[@Gogeri2008]

He is as they all are.

[@HeartOfMetalx11]

thinking of going to this area in the spring time. ill just use google maps to find creeks :) place looks beautiful only 2 hours from me

[@betrickey]

What knot was Rob using when he was talking about the Mayfly in the close up shot early in the video? It looks like an open knot Rapal style. Great video!! Thanks!!

[@betrickey]

3:18 into the video.

[@firemandan5959]

Thank you

[@0074craig]

You guys mentioned you went to Collingwood ,,,What river or rivers did you fish ?

[@newflyfisher]

Craig we were asked not to mention them but if you do some research, they are not hard to find. Lots of good water to fish in that whole region. Good luck and good fishing!

[@jumpinjehosiphats]

That's a new one, "suspension device"! A step up from the "strike indicator"; it amazes me to what lengths fly fishers will go to keep from admitting they're using a bobber. It's a bobber, ok? There's no shame in it.

[@jumpinjehosiphats]

Next up, submersion devices!

[@driftoutfittersflyshop]

We very often, and predominantly, refer to indicators as bobbers, but like to use a variety of terms to explain their many uses. As one of their uses we use bobbers to suspend flies at a consistent depth, so when we discuss them for this use we use the term suspension device. We call a spade, a spade - they're essentially bobbers.

[@16-BITFPV]

Fly fishing is way over the top but I love watching it anyway just to learn more about trout.

[@keiranrooker7981]

Hey Tom where if this stream and drift outfitters store located? I live an hour away from Toronto and love fly fishing just don’t know many trout creeks around the Niagara region

[@newflyfisher]

The store is located in Toronto, recommend you call them to get more info on locations.

[@keiranrooker7981]

The New Fly Fisher thanks Tom and good luck this year fishing crush some big ones mate 😉

[@flyingdutch9818]

What is that ‘pink worm’ fly emulating? In Australia we use a similar but green fly under willow trees

[@newflyfisher]

mor an attractor pattern for small earth worms

[@AbdulMalik-tu5vp]

Very beautiful sir

[@360fishingadventures8]

Suspension device lol!🤣 Bobber.

[@chadh.3209]

Yeah, it seems to go from bobber to float to indicator and now suspension device, Lol

[@robcesta4437]

It absolutely is a bobber! We call them that in the shop all the time, and we throw around different words for them here and there.

[@jumpinjehosiphats]

Ha, I just commented on that. Next up, submersion devices...

[@keiranrooker7981]

There’s a lot of mayfly nymphs there I lift and only find a few mayfly a while lifting usually hexagena nymphs we have huge hatches of hexagena mayflys

[@rick91443]

This is killing me, living so long in France, in the country in Normandy at that, but when I see North American Streams and fly fishing, at 66, something must be calling me home....rr

[@sbeauregard73]

what time of year is this

[@newflyfisher]

early june

[@yussefedwards]

Love it... very professional and proper until the fish jumps towards him... Holy $h*t... too funny!

[@Jfldhr]

I thought u live in Canada, we don't have many fly shops in Toronto.

[@newflyfisher]

Jim, the fly shop is in downtown Toronto which is great for people in the GTA. Rob has a wonderfully stocked shop and has great knowledge to pass onto anglers about where to fish. His shop is at 199 Queen Street East.

[@Transblucency]

I loved this video but I will say that your definition of a small stream is quite different to mine... ;)

[@miramurnrozanc7540]

fly fishing is one fli and hok without a hitch, everything alse is fishing with float (Marjan Rožanc Slovenija)
