Awesome to see you Killing it here. I DM'd you last year. Got a trip planned in October with my sons. Will be camping and doing some surf fishing for a couple of days below the Point in OBX. I went there last spring and just love all the features of that area with so many good deep close troughs and sandbars and rips that I wanted to try it in October. Hoping to land some with my fly rod. Hoping I get lucky and hook up with an Albie, but of course, that's wishful thinking. I've only really tried fly fishing in OBX once and that was in May of last year. Though there were bait fish around, there weren't any big fish around so I didn't catch anything. I'll probably hit you up with a DM before I head out and see if you can give me some pointers on what flies to use and how to go about landing some fish with a flyrod from the surf. I see you don't cast hard so I'm guessing you're not casting too far. Every time I'm out, I'm double hauling and getting my 10wt out there as far as I can. This time I'm a bit more prepared and will be using both a sinking line and an intermediate line so hopefully I'll be able to get some fish to take the flies. Love seeing the action on the flyrod. I hope I'll be as lucky!

Nice video! That dang rod casts a mile! Looks like a really fun spot to fish.

you have enough room on the reel for some backing,, this might be a good idea. as tying the silk line directly to the reel is not a good idea..

Ill take my hat off to you for your success in what I consider a river not worth the effort for the amount and size of fish that are in it. (with very rare exceptions) Ive fished that river from the park boundary upstream100s of times in my life and it just is not very fertile in terms of fish. Straight fork in Big Cove above the Cherokee hatchery is far superior when it comes to park streams IMO. If you know how to fish it.

Hello, I just found your channel and I have a 3wt but it’s an 8’6” and I wonder if it’s too long to fish the Eno 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m retired now and living in southwest Raleigh and have never been to the Eno🎣🍀🍀🍀👍 Thanks for your channel 👍

Nice video! I used to fish with my Granddad very close to there when I was a kid, he lived close to the river. I need to head out there.

I always have a small cooler with ice and a couple bottle of Seltzer which i prefer better than water specially on hot humid days.

It's better now due to the rain, and should be better after this week, with more rain coming. If you haven't yet, try fishing the upper and lower ponds at garey, they are loaded with bass and slab bluegill.

Hey man just experienced the same exact thing a week ago during the heatwave here. Had my line in the water by 6am, was having so much fun (glassin with the Butterstick) by 2pm I hadn't realized I did not drink any fluids but my caffeinated drink which probably dehydrated me too. Temp went up from 70s to a humid 98 by the time I realized how winded I was and how hot the sun had gotten. I sprawled out on the ground dizzy and took all my gear off, barely got to the car where I had to cool off. Lets both remember to stay cool and hydrated man!! Also awesome video besides the heat!! You sold me a Moonlit lol

Hello, do you have contact info or email where to source Gold Cup III parts have smaller sized 8wt?

Them sure are some pretty white fishing shoes. Glad you didn't time out on us. What fly did that bowfin eat?

Hope you’re good bud!

What line were you using? I have this in a #4 with SA #4 Frequency Trout. I think it’ll perform better with a shorter taper or their multipurpose which is more like a #4.5, though I still enjoy the slower action. Takes me back to the 80’s only this is a much better glass rod. For the price, this is a great value and feels like my Orvis Superfine. Admittedly, I feel ashamed for having spent $500 on a rod that performs on par with a $40 rod.

Enjoying your videos! You seem to enjoy the moonlit 6wt. Saw you also have the 5wt. How do they compare? In my limited experience, there can be quite a difference between rods only a single line rating apart. Just curious... Thanks for the inspiration the get out and fish more!

That first Cahaba has got to be one of the biggest ones I've seen! Congrats and welcome to the redeye rabbit hole!!!

Curious, are you fishing a sinking line or floating? I’ve seen some use a clear fly line as well.

Catfish on fly and sick cone flowers always a good day!

Nice clear water!!

I had that exact rod and it made me hate fiberglass until I got rid of it and tried a custom built glass model. I hated the SLOW action of the rod and it definitely takes a lot of adjusting to set the hook without missing lots of fish.

What flies and wt combo are you using?

Always nice to see clear rivers in Texas. We’re did you get that automatic reel i been wanting you like forever

That reel sounds awesome.

Wow 😮 looks fun

That 1st redbreast was awesome.

Awesome man! Makes me want to get out there!

What color fries

We are n Va haven’t seen them yet but im excited

Good video. Kevin, think about a segment in each video where you describe the vintage gear you are using.

Very Nice!

Another awesome video. Living vicariously through you until my trout skills improve!

Great video, you are valuable source for local fishing content+info. Is the Watauga along 105 in Foscoe decent these days? New to trout guy here, love exploring the area.

Nice video. Just hit the like button and also subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work and tight lines

Awesome video! I’m 15min from Eno and have never fished it. What’s your go-to flies for Roa bass/sunfish there?

Time to bust out the cicada files!

Those fish aren’t pure southern app strain. They stocked fertile northern strain in there many many many years ago. I used to know where I read that but can’t seem to find the article anymore.

Great comparison! Can you suggest me a 6wt fiberglass fly rod model for carp? Thanks!

Thanks for your honest and up front reviews on both reels. I'll definitely keep in mind those Gold Cups. I'll take the System 2 anyday. I have all three generations of SA System 2's. I dig the 1st and 2nd gen the most (especially the 1st) although I have a 5/6 3rd gen that is just fine by me. For the money, these reels are tough to beat.

I appreciate these videos more than you know. Thank you.

This is so alien but so beautiful

Also a tip on RUclips shorts, you can have videos up to 1 minute... But you have to tap the circle in the top right corner of the edit page that says "15" until it says "60" It's a terrible design

Just subbed this channel is awesome I was looking for somebody with day by day brood xix updates and dang it You're my guy 🫡

Incredible! Wow! Great for getting these guys on camera

Any advice on where to go access?

Very Nice. Got a spot scoped out for Cahaba bass east of there. got the Coosa, Bartrams, suwannee , shoal and made a trip for the Chattahoochee bass but didnt get one. now the new owners have posted it so got to re think where to go on the hooch bass. Very nice fish you caught.

Excellent 👌 Thanks for the vid! You ll need to invest in a bigger net! 😅 What line / leader / fly were you using on this Lunar 6wt? I ve got a trout 4wt 7’6 fiberglass fly rod and I m considering building another rod on a Moonlit Lunar 6wt blank for bigger fish… Cheers 👍

Nice video👍👍 Could you give more info about the equipment used with this Moonlit Lunar 6wt: line (brand, type, weight) , leader and fly? Take care

very nice carp, I'm jealous!

Super cool meeting you out there! Keep up the vids!

I replaced the two small stripping guides on my MaxCatch 7' 3wt. It throws line much smoother now.

Some nice bluegills! Cool looking rod too. What model?
