if you want to enter the giveaway for some hats and fly boxes subscribe the channel hit the like button and leave a comment with #flies in it. I’ve had so many requests to start making fishing videos, so as we just passed 300k subscribers, I figured it was time to post one-along with the first face reveal on the channel! Of course, I plan to stick mostly to fly tying videos since sharing patterns is the primary focus of the channel. However, if this interests people, I may post more. If this is something you enjoy, remember to drop a like, as I use that to gauge what people are most interested in.

Awesome video I hope you keep making fishing videos, and tying videos #flies

[@Notorious_Fishing]

I think I speak for everybody, we need more of these fishing videos where you put those flies to the test!

[@MainelyFlies]

Will do, I've got lots filmed. might find a way to mix the two. A tie than catch format

[@Notorious_Fishing]

@@MainelyFlies that would be awesome!

[@JeremyLamovsky]

​@MainelyFlies I was hoping you'd do something like that

[@markreynolds2351]

It’s good to see you posting fishing content again. I like the combination of tying flies then fishing them. Your explanation of how you plan to fish the river is nice. As always, great job.

[@coolbug900]

Learning how to fly fish has been a humbling but incredibly peaceful experience. The beauty you show in this video only makes me want to get back out there!

[@briangoddard9791]

“For that nice….. buggy look”

[@vincentb893]

Good job, reminds me of my old truck and camper shell, I had a similar setup I slept in for many years until I got older and had to pee a few times a night. Now I have a 4wd Van . Much more comfortable for chasing fish , sleeping stream side.

[@Midnightpierogi]

It touched my heart seeing you release them so gently. Loved this, please do more!

[@lantose]

Great video and the answer is yes! Please continue to educate us on what you know about your fishing skills with these outdoor videos! We understand everybody’s time is important, but whenever you can, I doubt you would have any subscribers complaining about anything! Love your fly tying and replicate many of them with the last one I just tied the wet red/black ant I just added to my repertoire! Have a great day and great to see a face with the voice!

[@woodgemdave]

Pleasure to finally see, meet you, thank you for sharing!

[@paullsmith1867]

What a great video. I miss living in Maine. Grand Lake Stream or down the Golden Road. Ahh! what a beautiful place.

[@oldsmugglerflyfishing]

Glad to see you on the water.

[@seanfalconer7182]

😮 OMG THAT'S ACTUALLY YOUR VOICE!!!😮 This was SO worth it!!! 😎👍🏻

[@MainelyFlies]

haha so many think its just AI. Guess I just sound like a bot.

[@MikeCanfieldalpinemike]

Damn that's a gorgeous river! Good to see you out there fishing! Great job with the camera work too!

[@SRROYALCITY1]

Great Video! Such good quality, we need more of this in our lives!

[@absolut7769]

You got me into fly fishing this year. Im super excited to start

[@MainelyFlies]

Good luck, takes some time but is well worth it

[@tomt5176]

G’morning Mainely Flies. I missed the trip to Maine this passed spring, but heading up in a couple weeks to try for some landlocks. Beautiful water you’re fishing there, not sure which stream you’re fishing, but I love Grand Lake Stream. The area called Picnic and up into Corporation is my personal favorite spot. Good stuff.

[@TR.Actual]

Yes! Nice work Jesse

[@dogbot55]

Wow, high quality

[@shelleyszulinszky9732]

Well done vid. Im in for the next one ❤️✌️👍

[@ruthcoates9587]

I need those boots! 😊

[@MainelyFlies]

They are nice to use, only down side ive heard but haven't experienced. If you bust the wire while out on a trip you are really out of luck

[@broncobill1204]

​@@MainelyFliesIf they are boa brand they should make a repair kit for them. I have korkers with that system and have a spare just incase they break.

[@MainelyFlies]

@@broncobill1204 They should be, I think LLbean uses BOA. Never looked into a repair kit but its always been a fear of mine. Going to pick one up now. Thanks for the tip!

[@JeremyLamovsky]

Thanks!

[@jeromedwojak918]

Very nice video, very relaxing! Appreciate you sharing your experience on the water! Very nice box of flies shown in your video, very uniform! Question? Any native rainbows with browns present!

[@MainelyFlies]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Here in Maine, we primarily have brook trout and landlocked salmon as our native species. There are some rainbows and browns but none would be native. In the video, I kept referring to them as “native,” which is true for this area, but what I really meant was “wild,” since there is stocking that happens here as well. Thats why I was rolling them over to check for clips.

[@DannyKillian-o4l]

I’ve waited so long for a video like this 😅

[@jewellcarpenter6764]

For real top notch 👌🏻🩵

[@TheCanadaman1]

I like you trout net. Is ist a custom build or purchased locally?

[@MainelyFlies]

It’s from New England nets they make beautiful nets! All of mine are now from them

[@ThueyOutdoors]

Great video!

[@carmanvw]

Thank you.

[@MainelyFlies]

No problem!

[@JeremyLamovsky]

What size do you generally tie those vinyl stoneflies? I need to tie some of those. Im pretty new at tying, so they're somewhat laborous for me and take me a while, but i love their look. Ive not gotten to use them but will when the steelhead start moving in if it ever rains again in ohio.

[@tenkarapondfishing4611]

Great video. I've tied a good two dozen patterns based on your videos. Many thanks! What type of Salmon are these?

[@tomt5176]

Landlocked salmon

[@Rocket_Prophet]

product/awesome! flies but, the trout seemed rather skinny?

[@MainelyFlies]

This was in the spring so the salmon are going to be at there slimmest

[@christophertoland7146]

Great video, what kind of salmon are those?

[@MainelyFlies]

Thanks glad you liked it, These are landlocked salmon

[@Demolitiondude]

Do you release salmon as you do trout or are they more beefy?

[@MainelyFlies]

They are very similar less handling the better

[@EatbBabyCow]

Are you gonna be restocking your orange beanie?😢

[@sbjuice622]

What do you wear on your hand?

[@MainelyFlies]

Depends on the temps but wool or synthetics, unless you mean the tape. That’s KT tape had some nasty scrapes from bouldering

[@outdoorpursuits-x4z]

What species of salmon is this?

[@MainelyFlies]

These are landlocked salmon, essentially Atlantic salmon that complete their entire life cycle in freshwater.

[@outdoorpursuits-x4z]

@@MainelyFlies thanks for telling me I was confused because they looked way different than any salmon than I've seen

[@granthendry1001]

Sometimes referred to as ‘ouananiche’ here in NB. Great video btw. Subbed

[@MainelyFlies]

@@granthendry1001 oh interesting, I'm from fort kent, ME but this is the first time ive heard this term

[@JP-dz7zu]

Those flies with the nice buggy look should be banned!

[@MainelyFlies]

I would be devastated!

[@robertomguimaraes]

Wooohooooooo mr Jess fishing again... in Flies channel now too. Greetings from brazilian lover! look to DJI NEO, will change outdoor footage.

[@pronghornobsession]
