[@ponce221]

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing

[@andronomisneltron3231]

I loved watching this, and appreciate the work you put in.

[@TheNorthwestWind]

super informative, thanks much

[@dougloboy3015]

Great show

[@washburnbilly]

Great video! It's putting the itch in me to get to the river real soon.

[@billknox4121]

No crowds - was this on private water ?

[@newflyfisher]

good question, we were moving around alot in both OH and PA. as soon as we pulled out the video camera, other anglers seemed to disappear or stay away. so kinda looked like we were alone

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

Wow Awesome tutorial guys 👍👍

[@bentfeather7519]

That is a pretty cool net. Would be a little too small for Idaho Steelies, but great for trout.

[@TheVeganeater]

Would a 8wt 7ft9in bass rod do for rainbow/steelhead and salmon? River I'm thinking about has banks littered with overhanging trees .

Where on Ashtabula are you at I’ve fished that river a lot but don’t recognize where u r

[@mitchelhay3415]

Where did you get your fishing net?

[@newflyfisher]

Mitchel it is called a "Netstaff" and was invented by Jeff Blood. Believe they are still for sale here: netstaffoutdoors.com

[@mitchelhay3415]

@@newflyfisher thank you I ordered two one for my brother as well!

[@Wyfbtr]

What fly rod are you using?

[@applesauce5987]

What is that net called?

[@newflyfisher]

it was called the net staff, not sure if you can still get them, they were available here: netstaffoutdoors.com

[@kevinvanatta9190]

Hey guys great video. I have a few rigging questions. Is there a way I can email Jeff on how he sets up his rig?

[@billpeirce7127]

Nice vedio. Great trout. But u need to use rubber nets!!!!! Cotton nets take off their slime coating witch makes the pic up more diseases. They need their slime!!!!!

[@newflyfisher]

agreed, older video. our new shows all use rubber nets. thanks for input

[@ricardomiranda5091]

The net staff nets are rubber coated

[@XiongBro1]

What kind of nets are you using and where can you get one?

[@newflyfisher]

+XiongBro1 they are called Netstaff. You can buy them in the USA online.

[@davidpike9112]

i wish we had steelhead in utah !!!!

[@dondenman8124]

Great fishing video guys. I appreciate the watch. But those are just large lake run rainbow trout for us in the PNW.

[@bzinkman]

Ok.

[@JB-tz9pi]

what is PNW?

[@lars9415]

Omg. Nice fish. But who needs bobbers?

[@benjaminaxselholm]

It's funny hardcore fly guys in Ohio raving about egg patterns all well the British Columbia snobs call it cheating. Lol

[@flyfishingworldwide4589]

nice float fishing haha

[@ThienNguyen-wh1fz]

sad... there's no longer anymore McCloud steelhead because they went an dam up everything.

[@GuitarDudeBoii]

10 ft 3 for Steelhead!?!? I would like you need something a little bit more heavy duty. At least a 5wt

[@deepintrout4874]

It's a 7wt 10'3"

[@windyknot2094]

Bobber fishing is a distant relative to fly fishing.

[@zakattk001]

Your point?

[@warrenc50]

That guy looks like a noob fly fisherman

[@counterpoint6718]

You wish...They are lake run rainbow trout and NOT sea run steelhead. No argument can change that fact.

[@jasonnester9514]

Steven Russell all our fish came from the eggs of western fish so ya they’re steelhead

[@flyman451]

What difference does it make? They fight well and take flies well. Admittedly they are not salt water steelhead but the original plantings were west coast steelhead smolts or fertilized eggs so what is your point?

[@Wyfbtr]

They still migrate and therefore they are considered steelhead. They leave a large body of water to spawn into the stream they were released into when they were only weeks old maybe a few months old. Still a steelhead. Rainbow trout never leave the stream or river.

[@fishinthebanks3512]

But we call em steelhead

[@zakattk001]

Can we change the fact about why you're mad though?

[@ericunderwood6728]

If you want to catch "Steelheads" you have to be on the West Coast of America, where Rainbow trout are born in a river that dumps into the PACIFIC OCEAN, after that Rainbow Trout makes it out into OCEAN ( not LAKE) that Rainbow Trout has been earned to be called a STEELHEAD, Out here in California I've been catching and releasing STEELHEADS for four and a half decades, if you want Big Rainbow Trout that came from California go to the Great lakes, if you want to catch STEELHEADS YOU HAVE TO COME TO CALIFORNIA, or the West coast of AMERICA

[@greghinderliter]

maybe the ones in lake ontario do go to the ocean...hmm

[@jasonnester9514]

Eric Underwood funny all our fish came from your fishes eggs so ya steelhead

[@flyman451]

And what is your point?

[@brianamado4366]

Eric Underwood regardless a majority of the fish in west coast systems are stocked hatchery fish as well...stop debating its pointless

[@tysonseafoot7834]

Eric Underwood that’s pretty far down south for steelhead bud. You want the big northerns.
