Man, one of my biggest pet peeves on the river is when someone comes in and fishes on top of me, or tries to steal my fishing spot! This guy, was not my buddy either. Total stranger! Hello??? Can't you see that I'm standing right here?? Haha! Oh well....some people just don't get it. The rest of the trip was great and it was fun casting the dry fly during the giant salmon fly hatch. These are HUGE bugs and the fish really come up and hammer the fly. It's really fun and these bugs bring the big fish to the surface too. Hope you enjoy the float!

What a knob. Hate people like that. You got a huge river.... if you see someone in a spot, have some respect and move on and come back later when they're not there. What a knob. Those type of people are just senseless. No common sense period.
You are obviously a really nice guy so it wasnt in your nature to tell him what he should truly be doing. You did a good job of using and awkward less than polite tone with your kind words to get the point across.
Haha! Yeah... I tried at least. Thanks for the kind words Zach and I appreciate you watching my videos! Tight lines my friend! 👍
@@flyfishhunter If you are within walking distance of a boat launch you are going to get wrecked time and time again. That guy decided to not launch or doesnt have a boat to launch, its sort of a pickle. Especially if we was resetting on a run he already has been fishing.
I know this area very well and I hate people who low hole but can’t feel too bad considering you have a drift boat and your fishing at the boat launch there are plenty of better boat access areas on this stretch with no one around.
Agree, epically coming in below you. But being that close to the ramp and an area bank fishermen obviously can get to, I would not be surprised if I were you. Plenty of river left below you that there would be no bank fisherman.
Ah man seems like the guy realized after, maybe he learned his lesson! Another great video! Good change of pace from the last few. Tight lines.
Thanks Rex! Sure do appreciate your support and comments. It was a change of pace so glad you still liked it. Heading out for a multi-day trip in my boat this afternoon in some serious white water. Hope for some more good hook ups! Hope you can get out soon as well!
There are times where there may not be another productive hole for a long ways up and down the river and I could accept someone else fishing a hole with me if they ask if it's okay. With that said, when you're their first they should really ask to share the spot with you having every right to say you'd rather not. In Idaho the locals like to constantly complain about out of staters not respecting space but the last time I was up on Henry's lake it was the out of staters giving me plenty of room and the locals slowly creeping closer and closer to me every time I caught a fish 😂
Haha! Double standards lol!
....you floated the launch to mecca...?
I would never forgive myself if I did something like that. At least you got to show him How to catch a fish. That river is notorious for this though
Imagine how crowded it would be if BOTH sides of the river had access! Great day bangin those redsides!
Haha! No kidding! Thanks, it was a fun day! Tight lines my friend!
There is access to both sides of the river, the other side is the Indian reservation.
You can fish it but you need another license on top of the three licenses ( salmon and steelhead tag ) you already have.
Plus a boating permit.
Favorite new channel, will binge watch.
Cool! Thanks so much!
Glad to see an example of what is considered stepping on someone. What should the other guy have done? Go upstream? Further down stream? How much space should you give someone?
Hey Andrew! "low holing" someone is about the worst thing you can do. You never want to jump down stream of someone in the same run as most of the time you fish your way down a run. If he wanted to fish the same run and not find another one, he should have asked if he could fish behind me as I went through. It's a huge river and I just think it would have been best for him to go find a different run all together. Hope that help and thanks for watching!
He totally low holed you! Oh well some people just don’t get it. Especially on that river in the summertime……
Yes low holing is the worst! Tight lines my friend!
Yeah that’s a bummer for sure. The only thing I enjoy when it happens is when you catch big and bunches of fish in front of them and there not catching them. Hard to stay positive, but you did well!! Great video!!
Haha! Yeah it's funny what people will do sometimes.
Dude youre in a boat. And he was there first.
Just vecause it takes you forever to set up
Hi Darrel! He came up to my spot about 5 minutes after I was there. But it's all good. Happy new year!
It’s surprising how many people have no idea about basic River etiquette. And then some who know and don’t care!
That's amazing!
Thanks Walker!
Wow, love these videos!
Thanks so much and glad you like them!
Handled it well! I have encountered people who know they are in the wrong, then I don't budge unless I've been at that spot for a while and have fished it out. When people obviously don't know what the etiquette is, I am sure to be more gentle and explain what their options are and why. I am always trying to protect my client's best interests and set an example for them. Had guys during duck season show up an hour after shooting light, drive their truck down to our spot and throw decoys 50 yards from our spread! That time we returned the favor by driving our truck down to pickup our spread and we were sure to take our sweet time.
I live on the front range of Colorado and this is the norm here on the very limited trout streams. One reason I prefer to lake fish from a boat instead.
I think some people truly don't realize this is uncool. I'm looking forward to visiting some far less populated areas this year.
You handled it better than I would have. If I walk up one someone I'll ask if they mind if I start above them and work down. Pretty common courtesy with spey guys but apparently low-holing is A-OK with that fella LOL
Yes, that is the correct way to handle it MtoM. Thanks for commenting!
Tell him that he's low holing and address that the proper etiquette is to start above you. Great channel!
Good tip! Thank you!
Use to fly fish a lot of fly fishing only areas back east. They where packed with fishermen. I never understood why anyone would want to fish this close to each other. Guy that taught me to fly fish used to say if you speak to the guy next to you and he can hear you are to close. Nice fish.
Tall Timber! I like that guideline! Geat tip and thanks for sharing! Tight lines my friend!
I thought you handled it well, it kind of sounds like you don't support conservation through other anglers fishing the local streams and rivers. I can't tell you how many times I've had people crowd me but when your catching a ton of fish people tend to move your way. Great video and I'm subscribed now and looking forward to watching your videos.
Thanks so much for the support! Tight lines my friend!
I totally feel you. I was fishing at this one spot and some boat came to the same exact spot I was at and started fishing. He literally could’ve went anywhere but came to the spot I was at. Btw I didn’t have a boat or anything so I just packed my stuff and left.
Man that sucks. I hate that.
Nice video. Every year I see more and more people like that guy. Rule of thumb in Montana is you move until you can't see the other fisherman. My biggest pet peeve is when I'm wade fishing and a boat fishes through my hole or they pull over and fish next to me. You have to just tell them straight up go somewhere else. Most people have no clue. There needs to be a river etiquette class before you get a license. Anyway you can't let it ruin your day.
Good rule of Thumb. Nice Jeep in your profile pic. Check out my other videos that feature my 81 Jeep Scrambler!
That guy is standing exactly where I would expect a fish to sit on the end of a swing. Etiquette is to ask the upstream angler if you can jump in below; otherwise fish above or much further down if it's a big run.
Agreed! This river is HUGE! No need to crowd another angler. Tight lines my friend!
People who wade always have priority over people who are in a boat
Another Great Video! Love them. Where abouts are you recording these videos from? Oregon?
Thanks Kaleb! I do a lot in Oregon but also, Idaho, Utah and Colorado. Tight lines my friend!
I had someone walk behind me when I was casting and he tired yelling at me instead of asking to get behind me. He was trying to cut me off up river and he did but I caught a lot of fish in front of him. Then he wanted to know the fly I was using. Lol I like catching a lot of fish in front of people when they do that.
Haha! That's hilarious!! Keep up the good work!
Do you always catch and release? If so, why?
The Deschutes is primarily c&r river.
Never have understood why people think it is okay to step into water you are already fishing. Have had it happen any number of times.
This river only has a hand full of spots that you can walk to. This guy is in a boat, there’s tons of spots to fish from a boat.
He wasn’t fishing. He was playing with his tripod.
@@jordandeiro8183 Can't fish from the boat, but use it to get where you can fish from the bank.
The boat launch was crowded so I took the effort to physically pull my boat up river about 200 yards to give myself some space and to find an open spot to film. I was there for about 5 minutes before this guy walked up from the launch where I was parked. The camera makes it look even further away, but he was really close. So close that I cold not get a full drift without my fly being right in front of him. Yes I was setting up my gear, but if a boat is parked on a piece of water, I'm not going to walk right out in front of them and start fishing it, regardless of what they are doing. That's just being courteous and respectful of other fisherman. This river has miles of walking river access as well.
@@flyfishhunter Some people are just jerks.
I'm primarily a salt water fly guy. Learning fresh. "The rules" may not be as commonly understood as you think. Example: I have heard most people fish upstream with dries and downstream with wets and streamers. So if this dude could tell you were fishing dries normally it would be OK for him to be downstream of you wouldn't it? Now I will agree he needs to give you space for your drift plus plenty and he shouldn't be throwing anywhere near your zone even if he is downstream of you. Does that make any sense?
Ahoy Capt. Mike! Thanks for the comment. Probably kind of hard to tell on the video but I was on a bar with hundreds of yards of fishable water above and below me and he walked right up below me which really prevented me from fishing down stream. He was way too close. Best to ask a fisherman if they are fishing upstream or down and then jump in behind them either way. Or, better yet, give them their spot and hike to the next great run. Hope that helps and tight lines!!
Poor taste on the guy 'corking you' , he's going to learn the hard way from somebody not so nice. Nice fish .
Haha! Yeah I hate stuff like that. Especially when there were so many other places he could have gone. Oh well! Thanks for the comment and hope to see you in the next one!
You can’t fix stupid! Can’t believe that spot was open. We skip the Ditch in May due to stupid fly anglers
Good call!!
It's floating pizza time!
20 yards away and you think its combat fishin. Lmfoa yea it was bad taste for ole boy to get that close on a river with nobody there. 2 things. You are in a boat and he is on foot. Why you fishin bank spots if you got a drift boat?20 freakin yards. You are wrong.
Hi Bob! I respect your opinion. With no one fishing around me for several hundred yards, it was weird he just walked right in on me. Lots of other places he could go.
Something I would never do, regardless if someone is in a boat or not. We will agree to disagree I guess. 👍 Tight lines my friend!
@@flyfishhunter Bob is that guy.
There has been a lot of fishing pressure lately. I agree that you need to give space on the river. I've had to have a few "conversations" with with people fishing over me. Heck of a nice fish btw ! This is my first time on your channel. Nice video. I subscribed. Mind subbing back?? Keep the cool videos coming 👍😎
Cool! Glad you liked it, and thanks so much for the support!👍 I'll check out your channel as well! Tight lines!
He has no respect for space ,looking to see what you catch then make you push on so he gets the fish .
I dont like guys like him
I hear that. I always give people lots of space and would never do that. Thanks Gary for checking it out and hope to see you in the next one! Tight lines my friend!
1: you’re busy playing with camera gear, not fishing.
2: You’re playing with camera gear, how is anyone supposed to know or first assume that’s ‘your’ spot….(on public water) when your not actively fishing.
3: you’re literally in a BOAT. You have access to the ENTIRE public water. Wading fishing only get the banks.
4: Be upfront and honest. Knock off the passive agressive BS. If he’s intruding, let him know thats how you feel, but just bc some guy points to literally 180* of water in front of him (like you did saying “just fishing right here as you point UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM). I’d fish ‘right here’ as well. Since you’re claiming it all
Otherwise, you’re got a good channel, but don’t be a prima Donna.
