    I forgot to say how much I enjoy your videos. No dumb music, no dumb commentary, just an angler’s view of the stream, with fish caught, fish lost, and lots of helpful information on flies and rigging. And you are a very skillful angler. This stream has lots of snags and tree cover and the fish are easy to spook, but you make it look effortless. Keep up the excellent work. It’s great to see this stream through someone else’s eyes.

    Superb video and the fishing was just as good. Fair dues on landing that monster dude…..I’ve been in that position and lost a huge brown because it wouldn’t fit in my net…..I bought a bigger net and landed my PB in the same spot a year later!

    How in the world do these fish not all spook and completely disappear? It looks like they are under 20ft away? Is this normal? Thx for any explanation. Amazing fish and fight!

      @HealingFishing-ce7dx  29 дней назад +2

      Thank you for your comment!! Yeah, it’s quite close as you mentioned.
      Of course sometimes trouts spook and disappear. But I’m trying to target trouts that are not too cautious.
      I am carefully and stealthily approaching the trout from directly behind, trying not to be noticed like Ninja.🥷

    I fully understand how hard it is to land a really big trout on light leader by yourself! It happened to me in Montana. I hooked a large brown on 5X and after quite a bit my rod arm was getting tired because the fish was heavy. Finally I had to use two hands on the rod to lift the head and then quickly slide the net under the fish. It was 25".

    Wow, great content!! This creek looks so much like one of my favorite creeks here in West Virginia USA, it has the same type of structure and bottom type. Today I fished it and the browns were destroying a stimulator dry fly. It’s like they hated it, they were eating it like a bass eats top water baits. Thanks a bunch!!!! Approximately how long was the big brown ?

      I have considered before, but never tried in NZ. I have been too afraid of loosing fish because I didn’t have many chance to catch fish before.
      I used to do Tenkara in Japan. I always used barbless hook and I liked it.
