  • RUclips'S FIRST TIE AND CATCH!
    We are starting a new series called the TIE AND CATCH where we tie a fly and the go catch fish on... it's that simple. This will enable everyone to see how the fly is tied, how the fly is fished, and how to catch fish on the fly. It's pretty much the total fly fishing package in one youtubve video.
    In this video Andrew and our buddy William take on a well known river in Colorado in an attempt to show off how deadly a jig streamer can be when worked close to cover. They end up catching a giant rainbow trout and a giant brown trout in the same day. This is an area where the norm is to throw size 24 midges... but browns aren't afraid to eat a big meal too. Fly fishing doesn't have to be difficult.
    I hope you enjoy this video!! #fishing #flyfishing #troutfishing

      Can't wait to see this paired with dries on alpine lakes!!
      Keep the amazing work and videos, each time a have that sweet sweet satisfying feeling when I get the notification of your new video!
      Well done!

    Yeah jig streamers/zonker leeches are amazing, I fish them a lot on an 6 or 8 weight in the size you tied, or I'll also tie much smaller (size 14-18) on a 5 weight. I catch ALL sorts of species with it, trout, bass, panfish, catfish. One of my 2 favorite flies of all time.

  • @OpportunityFishing
    @OpportunityFishing Год назад

    I dig it! Nice pattern. I tie something similar for a small creek near me but I'm using a size 8 hook and mink zonker strips instead of rabbit. If you haven't tried tying with mink yet, I suggest giving it a shot! It's kind of in between pine squirrel and rabbit in the length of the fibers but it has amazing movement in the water.

    Nice tie. The way that you tied this fly it won't matter if the slot of the bead is on top or bottom. The rabbit strip will make the hook keel hook up. Always looking for good winter flies, this looks like a good one.

    I fish a micro version of that for Brook Trout in West Virginia. Super effective. I remember one day i had a hot fly and I cough so many they ate all the fur off the rabbit strip and were still hitting the fly with just the leather attached. It’s something special when those WV brookies turn on. Awesome video I’d love to see more!!!

  • @jameslevison6030
    @jameslevison6030 Год назад +1

    Like your videos. Been using a pattern called the Rabbit Strip Jiggy which is a rabbit strip (Zonker strip) on a hook with a double tungstun cone (med or large size - put them together to form an egg), or a tungstun bead, at the head, right behind the hook eye. That's it. The strip is attached by impaling the hide over hook point and tying in the strip in front immediately behind the cones. The strip is straight on the fly - parallel to the hook shank. The hairs are on the hook bend, hook point side. That's it. Fly rides hook point up. Don't need accoutraments, they usually just take away from the fly's effectiveness. Been using it for 20 years or so. First wrote about it in Fly Rod & Reel Magazine in 2010. I'm a streamer nut and innovator and that Jiggy is one of the greatest trout streamers of all time. And perhaps same for many other species as well. I've lectured around the Country about that fly's effectiveness, and written more about it as well for quite awhile. Caught IGFA records on it too. You're finally catching on. Have enjoyed and followed your videos for a long time. U do a real good job. It's good to watch a good fisherman fish and catch too. Mark Sedotti

Ended up leaving when a guy came up and started fishing the same current seam I was, and the dude was directly across from me. Somehow he thought that was normal.

    Another amazing adventure and video! Really loved this video beyond the fishing though and it was you edited and put all the shots together along with the music, plus the bonus fly tie session.
    One ask, maybe it was my laptop speakers, but I had a little trouble hearing you on the tying lesson because the background music seemed too loud. Otherwise would be happy to see more.
    One other observation that I hadn't picked up on and that is that the Browns have the same red spots as a Brookie but a completely different body and without the blue halo's around the red spots of the Brookie.
    Stunning scenery too even though you were limited to the body cam. What temperatures were you fishing in?
    Cheers.

    i'm genuinely curious if using a fly rod or spinning setup is better for fishing with larger streamers, an ultra light setup would handle those no problem, maybe even be a little on the heavy side. Does using a fly rod give you any advantages over a spinning setup? I'll be trying fly fishing this spring for the first time and i'm trying to figure out the when's and where's for breaking out a fly rod
