In part 24 of the 2 month camping trip, I'm fishing a stream with a road that runs close to it making for somewhat easy access but that didn't slow the fishing down...big fish live in this small stream and they are crazy pretty! Near the end of the day I find a hole that was loaded with fish. Back at camp I ran into some locals who asked how the fishing was...I told them about my day on this stream and they were STUNNED. They COULD NOT BELIEVE I caught any quality trout from this stream. All they had ever caught were kokanee and 8 inch trout...this some statement has been made several other times as others recognize the stream from the video and private message me!
I was completely shocked my the landscape I found in Idaho, I felt like I was camping and fly fishing in a rainforest. The only thing prettier than the landscape were the native westslope cutthroat...the one near the end was stunning! But the craziest thing was watching ash fall from the sky at the end of the day. A video for the flies and rig is linked below.

The way you silently walk along the trails and waters edge makes me feel like im really there. Studying the runs, casting where I would. I'm impressed that you can hold back some verbal excitement sometimes when you set into a decent sized fish in a modest hole and didn't expect it. I lost count how many you pulled out of that big V log hole in this video. Drew you need to let us know if you need any fishing, camping or fly tying stuff. Keep the awesome videos coming.

Been seeing lots of beautiful cutties on your channel. I'm on the East coast and get up in the hills to chase brookies. Lots of fish, but that's not entirely why I'm there. Saw a deer give birth to twins while I was eating lunch. I guess she realized that it was now or never. I just chilled and went about my business, quietly. She did her thing while I watched. She got her kids hidden and went off to eat, or so I figured. I finished lunch, and backed out quietly. If I live to be a thousand, it will be among the top memories of my existence. This is why we do what we do.

Drew, another great video. Awesome stream with some very nice size and active/hungry trout. Love the fight that some of them gave you! Pretty much like you, I very much like to fish where others do not. I spend as much time as I can (which is a bit more now that I recently retired) fly fishing many locations in the CA Sierra as well as my home state of PA when I get back there to visit. Walking several miles or breaking through thick brush or crawling on hands and knees to get to a good spot is never a question but simply the journey and experience. Recently spent a week in NorCal mountains with a group of friends and just killed it with lots of wild trout (rainbows and browns). Most landed and released and a few that left just a memory and a reason to return again someday. Anyway....did have one Q for you? Do you have a fav app that you use for finding and navigating to some of these out of the way spots? I have looked at a few but not chosen any yet. Currently, I just use online maps and my instincts to guide me. thx, Jude

Speaking of people driving right past some good fishing ... My Mom was pregnant with me when her and my Father built the Family Home where I now live. The Army Corps of Engineers had dug big drainage ditches which drained what had been; in my Grandfather's day, known as "Buck Trout Swamp". I kid you not ! I was born in 1956, and; growing up, I felt as if I grew up "out in the Country". I spent a great deal of my childhood "out in the woods". I spent most of my working life travelling up and down the East Coast following the money. Every time I came "Home" ... things had changed. My neighborhood is still bordered on one side by the same 4-lane divided Highway that it has always been, and the creek which the swamp was drained into is still there, surrounded by a narrow stretch of woods. But the other 2 sides had been Greenbrier Farms, the "World's Largest Nursery". They leased out HUGE fields to Stokely / Van Camps where they grew corn and soybeans, and one year potatoes. Damned near the entire neighborhood was in the potato fields that year after the harvesting machines had harvested potatoes ... and left a ridiculous amount of potatoes behind. They had also left stacks of burlap bags, which we all gratefully filled with potatoes and took home! But Greenbrier Farms was sold, roads and houses were built, and my neighborhood became increasingly swallowed up by suburbia. As a child we had driven down a dirt road to access one of my favorite lakes to fish in, but the dirt road was gone, and it was surrounded by private property and inaccessible for most of my adult life. After my prime earning years I quit chasing the money and moved back home for good. One day I took the time to drive completely around the old fishing hole from my childhood, which is now completely surrounded by business properties. The road we used to travel to access the dirt road offered no hope, with businesses of a type where I didn't even drive onto their property. Two sides of the lake were surrounded by a big privacy fence behind Auto Shops and a Shopping Center. There WAS a hole in the fence at one spot that led to a tiny area of shoreline, but it wasn't what I was looking for. The 4th side has maybe 20 feet of trees and brush which hide the lake from sight, but I knew it was there, and accessible from the back corner of the largest Parking Lot at a Wa-Wa I have ever seen. Truckers use it to park and rest as it is right next to I-64. It's also reserve parking for a small Auto Dealership. It fit my needs as public parking well enough, and their was a path through the trees down a hill to the lake, where almost nobody fishes any more, and most people don't even know it's there! Over the past several years I have dragged my little aluminum jon-boat down the hill to the lake, where I have caught 2 largemouth bass over 5 lbs. and one over 6 lbs.. All in a lake hidden in the middle of what is now sprawling suburbia. This led to my pulling up an overhead map of my area to find other hidden fishing spots, because City People just don't look for such things! I now have several locations where I park my vehicle and offload my boat into waters where I have NEVER seen anyone else fishing ... and the results have been OUTSTANDING !!! I'm catching boatloads of fish within 10 minutes of my house in the City, and people who learn of it are shocked. So if you drive past some water that looks as if it might have some fish in it, you may want to wet your line and find out. I did, and I've never regretted it !

Having only tried fly fishing a handful of times in my lifetime i can appreciate how good an angler you are. I’m used to using float tackle rigs which is infinitely easier. Thank you for posting this great video, and as the previous gentleman said, I love the fact that I can hear exactly what you did. Marvellous 👍

Grew up on the conventional side but always felt like trout should be caught on the fly. Taught myself about 15 years ago and its changed how I fish now. Thanks for the good vibes!

If you live in the USA, Bass Pro & Cabelas have FREE CASTING LESSONS in the spring (usually on Saturdays) on the weekends. But if you go into either place & tell them that you need some help learning & someone who is more experienced than you to help you, they almost always help. Also local fly shops are an excellent place to find a professional instructor, mine is K&K in Overland Park, KS. Many fly fisherman/women there that is willing to help you get better. I learned to cast on the football field of my local high school when I was 35. It just takes time & practice. Keep @ it. ITS TOTALLY WORTH IT. ..Happy Hunting.

@@LooknFishy thank you for taking the Time to respond drew. Born and bought up in central London kind of locks you into the more conventional methods, however London isn’t that big so I reckon an hour in any direction by car would lead you to a fly fishing lake. Like I said though it’s not that accessible when your young . I love watching all manner of river ( creek) fishing from the U.S. you enjoy much more predatory species and seem to find big fish in small places. I especially enjoyed the fight you had with the trout 👍 they really do put on a show. There’s a video on KZbin called fishing in Kingston upon Thames, which is where I live. I don’t know the blokes but it’ll give you an insight into what it’s like on the river Thames. Anyway, I hope this message finds you and your family in good health, Kind regards, Les.

Good job. That cast and float at 6:00 was perfect. It's casts like that, that make me say to myself "even if a fish didn't take, wow, perfect, or I should of caught one that time".

Sometimes that's all I hope for...just a good presentation. In most cases, if a fish is there, it will respond, if we execute properly...and that's really all I hope for!
