Amazing creatures. Tough as nails to live and thrive in freezing rushing water, but delicate enough to suffer from a rise of a few degrees in water temperature. A specialist designed to survive in the cold water nitch. I am in awe of the trout. Great video and thanks!
Well said. I am also fascinated by the same things you mentioned. Thanks for watching!
Nice Browns, pretty water!
great video, thanks for sharing
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Looked like a great day! That new nymph of yours is killing it!🙏🏻🇺🇸
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
I am a new fly fisherman and new to your channel. Your knowledge and love for the sport makes you one of my mentors along with george daniel and lively legs. Three mentors is enough for me. My Q is.... when I tight line nymph do my flies always need to drag bottom? Cause I am loosing a ton of flies and watching all of yas have smooth drifts and minimal snags on your vids. Fun hobby but costly LOL :) man you are one hell of a fisherman bro
Well thanks for the generous compliments! First time I've ever been on a list with George Daniel... LOL
You don't want to be on the bottom every time. Near the bottom (within 12 inches or less sometimes) is ideal. If you're on the bottom too much just hold your rod tip higher to hold the flies higher off the bottom or shorten your tippet. Either works, but I prefer the first method.
Good day out there, Chuck. Here's to warmer weather!
haha For sure! Thanks for watching! Appreciate it.
You had a pretty good day considering you were cold and tired. Another good video. 👍
haha Yeah, it definitely turned out good. 👍
Thanks for watching!
What a morning, great fun when the bite turns on like that. Nice job finding the lanes where the fish were stacked up. Wish we had wild brown streams like that up here in Mass. May need a road trip to Central PA soon.
haha Yeah it's a good time for sure! Make the trip! We are very fortunate here in PA to have so many wild trout opportunities. Thanks for watching!
Killing it as always 🔥🔥 your river's are rammed with fish 👍
Thank you! Where are you from?
@@Brownsylvania uk🇬🇧 👍
Hey Chuck! Solid day. I’ve been sticking around home, playing with stockies and some small stream wild brownies. Great bug activity with some top water action picking up this week. Hope to catch up with soon. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Scott!
Sounds awesome! Yeah the only issue is a I mostly fish weekends. I do have May 13-23rd off though. Maybe we can make something happen during that time?
@@Brownsylvania Sure, I’ll be in touch, gotta see how turkey hunting is going in May, but I’ll try to work something out. Tight Lines!
👍👍👍👍
Nice video. Could you comment some on your line handling and hook settings technique
Thank you!
Yeah absolutely.
Killen EM!!!! WOW! Bad Camera day but the fish were HOT!
haha Yeah that's for sure! Thanks for watching!
Another great video man!!! Those browns were all buttered up!! 👏 So happy it’s finally spring!!! Need to get upstate and fish the granom hatch before it’s too late. We’ll deff have to link up sometime this coming spring! 🎣💦 tight lines and keep up the great work!!!
Thanks a lot Owen. Appreciate the kind words. Yeah we definitely do need to meet up at some point!
First I’d like to say how much I appreciate your videos. I’ve been Euro Nymphing for 3+ years and have learned a lot from channels like yours. One suggestion I’d make to you and all those making ESN videos: Just before you start filming, if you would brighten your sighter with Sklar’s Neon Wax, it would make it much easier for the viewer to follow the drift and see the take.
Please keep up the fine work.
Thanks a lot for the compliments!
I can definitely look into this, but to be honest I'm not sure it will help. A lot of the issue just lies with the fact that GoPros have terrible low light performance because of their small sensors and they just don't pick it up well when it's not full daylight.
@@Brownsylvania You don't use a sighter anyway, right? Just straight Amnesia to fluoro? Another great video. I could watch you fish all day!
Nice work man ! That’s a good day on the water 👍 Yea , we all have camera troubles now and then ☹️ , but when the fish are are biting everything else is secondary! A camera man tagging along would be nice 😂 Keep the great videos coming!! Tight lines
Yup that's for sure!
A camera man would be nice, but it's hard to find someone that just wants to film. 🤣
You also mentioned tagging an egg pattern on the point fly. Would you explain that a little more?
Yeah I just tied an egg off the eye of the stonefly nymph about 6 inches just to use as a trailer. I do that every once in a while when I want to test an egg out.
I watched multiple videos of yours through the winter. The water that those browns sit in is insanely fast for early season. Pocket water or not. I wouldn’t expect to catch anything but rainbows Im the water that you usually fish. Over the last 4 or 5 months.
Are you from PA? If not PA has pretty mild winters for the most part and those sunny warm winter days can spike the water temps and get them up in the runs usually.
Thanks for watching though! Much appreciated.
I wouldn't complain about that day at all looks like you caught a good amount. I fish the little Juniata quite a bit so if I see your having luck on a rig maybe I can too lol
hahaha Yeah I tend to say days were "too good" when really they were. 🤣
Thanks for watching!
Crazy to see snow on the hill side. Was this recent? Regardless you had a great day and really got on some browns! Great intro as always! I could watch the first minute of every video you do on repeat lol. Keep em coming man!
Sort of. It was April 2nd. Thanks for the compliments though Mike! Always appreciated.
great video as always. how long was your floro leader in that video? that will be another day to remember!
Thanks a lot! It will be for sure. I typically run about 4-6 feet of tippet at most PA streams. Sometimes I run longer if I know the stream has deeper sections.
Nice trout hopefully I will be able to go get some tomorrow is the opener for us so hopefully I will be posting a monster trout tomorrow 😂 !
Thank you! Where are you from?
@@Brownsylvania New Brunswick Canada
Awesome! Good luck!
Like the quick peak of that new perdigon. They’ve been a staple point fly for me the last few years. Would love to see the materials you used to tie it- the tail looked very different that the typical CDL. I’ve tied a bunch of your Quill Baetis and do well with the size 16 (I also tied a single Lead Lotus (?) & lost it on a a snag moments after I put it on lol). I’d like to try that new pattern on an upcoming trip with my bro in two weeks if you have a link (or post a vid)? Tight lines & nice video, thanks for sharing.
I don't have a video yet, but the materials are the following:
Tail: pheasant tail fibers
Flash butt: copper krystal flash
Body: Olive Veevus body quill
Wing case: black fingernail polish
Bead: 2.8mm copper slotted tungsten
Hook: Orientsun 5241 size 16
Hope that helps and if you tie up some, good luck! Thanks for watching!
Perfect! Thanks. The only thing that I couldn’t have guess was the tail fibers. They look much more rigid & synthetic (to me) in the quick pan of the row. I’ll tie some up for the trip... if you use it frequently, let’s us know how it stacks up vs your other staple patterns. Cheers!
Absolutely! I definitely will. Hope it works out well for you!
Thanks Chuck! Looks like action was hot and heavy! That last Brownie you caught on film which fly did he take? I’m a real perdigon fan so I hope it was the perdigon 😎
I believe he took the stonefly. I'm a big perdigon fan as well. Thanks for watching Dale!
Really liked the video I subscribed... what editing software do u use?
Thank you! I use Adobe Premiere Pro
What was your fly setup, two stone flies?
Stonefly on the point and I switched the tag nymph frequently.
You should release the fish better and not just throw them in
They're just falling in water.
Great video. But you need to be more gentle on the fish, dropping them 2-3 ft above the water does them no good. Thanks for the content
Hooking the fish likely does more harm than tossing them a few feet back into the water. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your quick response. I respectfully disagree. A poorly released fish does far more harm than a hook in its mouth
We can all agree that proper handling is always in the fish best interest but you gotta give them a little more credit for being resilient. Ive already been fishing in West Virginia down a 25 foot embankment and it started raining trout. They net the fish out of the truck tanks and throw them like they are playing lacrosse. There were literally trout flying though the air and dropping through the trees like falling leaves. Those fish hit the water and took off like nobody's business and i never saw an injured or dead one all day after that. I certainly dont like or agree with those tactics but it shows trout are alot tougher than some people give them credit for.
@@Brownsylvania . Maybe you should role out a red carpet for the fish to waddle down. I bet that would make Kelly happy. I bet Kelly watches too much Sponge Bob
I used to help stock trout here in PA. They would hand us a bucket full and tell us to throw them as high and far as we could. If they saw you pouring them gently into the stream, you would catch hell. Many lakes out west are stocked from airplanes which are flying pretty fast about 20 to 30 ft. high when they dump them out. Last year especially, because of Covid, many streams in PA were only stocked at bridges where the truck would stop on the bridge, they would scoop out a net full of trout, and simply dump them off the bridge while standing on the truck. On some bridges that's a heck of a long fall to the water. There are plenty of videos on You Tube of trout being stocked from high above the water or buckets full being thrown high and far as I said earlier. Why not just call the PA Fish Commission and ask them? The last thing an experienced fly fisherman would do would be to intentionally harm a fish in any way. Think about it. And yet I imagine you might intentionally keep these beautiful wild fish and take them home and eat them?
