River Pike Fishing on Unknown Water l Flymaniacs l Niklaus Bauer & Jonathan Åhström

Fly fishing one of the large rivers of northern Sweden. Niklaus Bauer took his boat up to visit a friend Jonathan Åhström that shares the same passion for trying waters without knowing anything beforehand. In this episode we are fishing below an hydropower damn after scouting the area for a place to ramp the boat.
Jonathan is fishing with the new Vision Pikemaniac 9' #9 rod. Read more about the rod:

Very nice video. Merry christmas for Vision team.

Merry Christmas mate.

@@Visionflyfishing thank you.

20x looking this video. Always dreaming spot. Weighted flies give strange feeling at the first cast, because you have the fear to hit the rod. But you re right, if you work with a heavy sinking line, it s not work very well and miss fish. I need to come in this beautifull country or maybe @niklaus come one time in switzerland 😅. Greats and never give up ;)

I was thinking about selling my Pikefly Gear because my home lakes arent suited for that kind of fishing, after watching this ive decided i just need to drive a little bit further.

[@rontormondsen8295]

Can you imagine hooking one of these in a scadden it will Pull you all over the lake 👍

[@limoucheu8522]

Absolutely fantastic. I have a question, as a member of the "fly only" team I fish fly since now 30 years. I am a predator fly fishermen (Pike, Zander and perch), A lot of experts says always you must do a strip set when you set the hook for predator, but for you, Niklaus Bauer I see that you only do a sort of very powerful trout set and it seems that it is efficient. Could you explain a little. All the best with a lot admiration. Your piker red and white pattern allow me to catch a 115 cm a little more than 10 kilos, one more time great thanks and continue to help us to dream.

[@niklausbauer8639]

Hi man Well a strip strike is almost always better because if you don’t succeed in hooking the pike the fly is still in the fish eyesight and they will often take again. Sadly I fish so many different species with fly so my brain doesn’t sort it out that well 😉😂😂 so I guess this is the best I can do, it has worked well the last 35 years so I’m not so worried about it, but of course there are other species that you really need to strip strike but pike and Zander works well like this.

[@niklausbauer8639]

Congrats to a beautiful fish👊👌

[@limoucheu8522]

@@niklausbauer8639 Hello master, it is a real great honour that you answer me. Big thanks to you, your passion, you are a true inspiration for me. One more time big thanks. Happy new year 2023 with plenty of beautiful fishes taken on flies. "They only count on fly".

[@limoucheu8522]

@@niklausbauer8639 Thanks a lot. It was on one of your pattern (I have a lot of them in my boxes). Vision grand mama reel, a grand daddy rod comes from someone you know very well, another master: Mark Zitvast.

[@ondrejalchus6321]

great video! are you thinking about shoot a video manual how to tie this white/silver fly pattern? greetings from slovakia.

[@niklausbauer8639]

It’s in the making 😉

[@paake3134]

I'd love to start flyfishing for pike, however getting into it seems way harder than original spinning/baitcasting😢

[@Visionflyfishing]

Hey. Well it's not that hard actually and you can start off with very very simple setups. You should check out this video from our channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fp3EY2tqp9Z-rac

Why is vision not in fly vs jerk 15?

[@Visionflyfishing]

We felt already on last season that it is time for new things and chapters. 👍

[@jillsterner860]

Awesome vid Bauer is always sour and jealous and his humour is demeaning to who he fishes with . I think he purposely missed that net on buddy there before the actually net tbh
