Watching this video brings back a lot of fun memories. When I coal mining in Montana I would fish that river around 100 days a year. Wish I was still there

[@Antiliblife187]

The Bighorn videos are my favorite. Pete is the man! Great job.

[@timtollett8513]

Great to see Pete in action. He knows his stuff! As always a very done video. Thanks Mark.

[@steveburgess1519]

I have been watching Mark's videos for a long time. It has inspired me to fish some of the same water including several trips to the North Platte near Casper. The tips and techniques I learn from the videos has paid off with some of the best fish of my lifetime. Many fish over 20". Thank you Mark and your team for the great videos.

[@newflyfisher]

That is awesome, thanks so much for sharing!

[@mattier3030]

I fish the Platte often in and near Casper. Ryan’s outfit is killer

[@2Dutchy]

George is the best guide ever

[@Scarbis93]

Mark you are truly a lucky man to be able to experience all of this. Thank you for taking us along with you on all your journeys.

[@dankochanek8056]

Was great to see a local and a lady that kills it. Great watch as always!!!

[@robertheal261]

Great episode, guys! Pete seems like a super cool cat.

[@Barticus84]

Just started this video and I am already inspired to go

[@bobmostachetti6317]

I've spent a couple of days fishing with Pete. He runs a great operation and is not only a master at his craft but is also a great hang. I highly recommend you book a trip with him! Ill definitely be back!

[@peteshanafelt8264]

Thanks Bob! Let’s fish again!

[@PearlRaven]

Beautiful cinematography

[@elkhunter307]

I usually hate videos that blast my local waters but this was well done and informative. Blast the big rivers leave the small stuff alone.

[@andydavidson4108]

Rowing the boat one spring, there were almost no olives on the water. Then I saw a pod of fish feeding near the bank. Parked the boat and three of us got out to fish. There was only room for one person to cast, so we took turns. Five casts and then you had to give way to the next guy. We all caught fish. Then Ray was tying on a new fly when he knotted the leader around a bump on his tongue. Unable to speak clearly, we all started laughing so hard that we had to quit fishing until we managed to get Ray's tongue untied.

Montana is an amazing place.

Used to be before California took it over.

[@JC-xc8rx]

@@jts9120Word is CA is a shithole now

[@salmonaddicts]

Lovely 😊

[@25falcons]

I didn't quite understand the nymphing rig. Is he putting the first nymph 7.5 feet down from the indicator??

[@peteshanafelt8264]

@25falcons, I’ll run from indicator to swivel as a stopping point (w/weight above) about 7.5’. From there, 18-20” to each bug

[@burls76]

swapped Orvis for Skwala...how you liking them?

[@newflyfisher]

Love them... They are durable and super comfortable. The back support is a game changer in the waders. The jacket is stellar and has held up to all weather this season - from torrential downpours in the Sub Arctic to snowstorms in Chile..

[@garyjohnson4778]

And nary a piece of Orvis gear to be seen.

[@brooktroutangler5917]

switched over to Sage?

[@newflyfisher]

We work with all rod companies as of 2023. This season we are shooting shows using: Orvis, Scott, Sage, Douglas, Hardy, RL Winston and more!

[@brooktroutangler5917]

@@newflyfisher why the change?

[@newflyfisher]

@@brooktroutangler5917Good Question. if we are able to utilize different endemic fly fishing companies, in our content, we can give exposure to all the kids in the sandbox! This week I''m fishing Sage and Douglas rods with loop reels and SA line.

[@bigbadfella]

Are you still friends with Tom?

[@newflyfisher]

absolutely!

[@fishingmontana1564]

Mark seems like the typical rich fly fisherman that thinks he is better than everyone like he is a big deal that he is on KZbin

[@SPIKESPIEGEL1969]

false advertising. woman on thumbnail, but not in video. boooo

[@newflyfisher]

Look again, she is in the video

[@jts9120]

If you need a guide to go fishing. You shouldn't be fishing. I grew up on the Bighorn. And you don't need a $1500 fly rod to catch fish

[@jonathanheim4823]

But if you can, why not?

[@hikesteepfishhigh]

I'll just buy a boat and haul up there from my house in Tijuana on the back of my road bike... I agree with the rod though as you don't need a high end rod, but if you could afford it, wouldn't you do it? i fish what I could afford and catch more fish than my friends with expensive setups but I'm pretty sure if I could afford it I would have a rack of expensive fly rods and a ridiculous amount of tackle boxes😂

[@user-ux1fe3bf9p]

It's not a guide I need it's a drinking buddy I could use

[@jakerozier77]

You don’t need a caddy to play golf. You don’t need $1500 driver. But you probably couldn’t afford the fee to play. Just have fun never getting better. 😂

[@skpeep2030]

You do realize what channel you are watching, right? They promote fly shops and are sponsored by orvis. You think they are just gonna go out there and rough it and fish with $100 rods? They are showcasing the areas and products. Grow up
