Missing the high country | Fly fishing Utah
This is from a day trip my biddy Greg and I took in August 2023. Posting the video in February 2024, it’s cold today and I am missing warm days at 10,000 ft. Hopefully this will get you excited for summer 2024! Thanks for watching!

Tiger trout | Fly Fishing Utah

A couple friends and I headed out for a day at the lake in search of tiger trout. It was nice and cool at higher elevations and we found some hungry fish. Although I broke my favorite fly rod this day I still had a blast and I am grateful for a good warranty. Hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching. #flyfishing #troutfishing #fishing

Colorado River Cutthroat Trout | Fly Fishing Utah

On the hunt for native fish, Greg and I set out to one of our favorite cutthroat streams. We had some fun, saw some moose, and soaked up some fresh air. Hope you enjoy watching the video as much as I enjoyed making it! #flyfishing #troutfishing #nativetrout
5 dry flies I never leave home without and how to tie them. Number 3 “the adams”
Просмотров 1462 года назад
The adams is a classic mayfly imitation that trout can’t seem to resist. Tie them in several different sizes and even change dubbing colors to match the local mayfly hatch. Thanks for watching!

5 dry flies I never leave home without, and how to tie them. Number 4 “stimulator”.

The stimulator is a super floaty fly, and it’s a fun one to tie. Hope you like the video. Give this one a whirl! #flyfishing #flytying
5 dry flies I never leave home without and how to tie them. Number 5 “parachute blue winged olive”
Просмотров 2152 года назад
Blue winged olive hatches in the spring always get me excited for things to come. The days are getting longer, the fish are eating dry flies again with reckless abandon, and I’m dreaming of summer camping trips fishing to rising fish. Hopefully you will enjoy this series and give this fly a try on your local baetis loving trout. #flyfishing #flytying
5 nymphs I never leave home without, and how to tie them. Number 1 “the guides choice hares ear”.
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.2 года назад
The guides choice hares ear is a staple in my fly nymph box. Whether I’m dropping it below a big hopper, or nymphing it deep this one is just plain deadly. Give it a whirl!
5 nymphs I never leave home without, and how to tie them. Number 2 “the simple sow bug”.
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.2 года назад
When rivers are full of sow bugs trout really seem to key in on them year round. This is a super simple, super effective version of a sow bug that I’ve tied and fished for several years with good success. Give it a go! #flyfishing #flytying
5 nymphs I never leave home without, and how to tie them. Number 4 “Soft hackle pheasant tail”.
Просмотров 2,6 тыс.2 года назад
The pheasant tail is a classic for a reason, and I’ve really been a big fan of adding a soft hackle to this fly for some added movement. Definitely give this one a go. #flyfishing #flytying
5 nymphs I never leave home without, and how to tie them. Number 4 “the buckskin caddis”.
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.2 года назад
This fly is so simple and easy to tie that you can crank out a whole bunch in a short time. This version probably won’t get 1000 likes for the gram, but what it will do is catch you some fish! Try them in sizes 12-16. #flytying #flyfishing
5 nymphs I never leave home without. And how to tie them. Number 5 “pats rubber legs”.
Просмотров 1 тыс.2 года назад
The pats rubber legs is a classic fly for a reason. You can vary color and size to mimic all types of stonefly nymphs you might encounter out on the river, and it’s pretty simple to tie. You definitely don’t want to get caught out on the water without a few in the box! #flytying #flyfishing

    Do you like fishing the scuds under an indicator for stillwater? How deep do you usually fish them, I’m thinking of Uinta lakes. Thanks.

    • @gappmayerflies458
      @gappmayerflies458 18 дней назад

      @@Daniel-td1ou Daniel, good question! And thanks for the comment. Under an indicator would work just fine, if you have a sink tip like and emergent tip or midge tip line that would work as well. Scuds are most active in low light so early morning or late In the day on sunny days, or anytime on overcast days work best. They swim in short spurts near the bottom around vegetation so target weed beds or other structure. Thanks for watching!

Well done. You both got some nicer cutts. They sure are pretty from there. The trail to that little green pond can be tough to find.
