BIG Browns under BLUE skies. Fly fishing New Zealand.

- Опубликовано: 4 ноя 2021
- Join me (Mike Kirkpatrick) and good mate Hans Kreuer as we search for a location with a forecast that might just give us the chance of some sun to wave a flyrod under for a day. The weather for the opening month of our season has been average at best, and with fly fishing being more than just catching fish, we yearn for some nice conditions to simply enjoy the day with fish being a bonus. We found some of that sun on the afternoon drive in, as we stop off briefly to check out a spot, before setting up the tents and hitting the river early the next day.

Just so sad!!! I doubt I will ever see your beautiful country again. Thanks for the memories, delightful as always but it still brings a tear to my eyes. Covid has screwed up so many wonderful things!!
Never say never buddy. We'll have tourists here before too long...
Beautiful river and some gorgeous fish. Mike did a very nice job filming and narrating this fishing adventure. I always look forward to his videos. Thanks for posting.
Thanks mate, I appreciate your appreciation! Glad you liked it!
Stunning fish! Well done lads 🙌🤩

Best 33 min and 25 sec of my day 🙂
Glad to be of service to you! Take care out there!
Geez Hans is a weapon, some great fishing there.
He is indeed. But he didn’t get the biggest fish… 🤣🤣😬
Great fishing there Mike. Another enjoyable, but jealous viewing time! Thanks for the entertainment....
Haha - glad to be of service
Ohh cant complain with a day like that so epic 🙌🙌🙌👌🏻👌🏻🎣🎣
Thanks!
If I could catch just one of those great browns in my lifetime, I would die a happy angler😃 great vid again
Thanks for the kind thoughts and that would be a good way to die for sure...
I've always enjoyed Mike's videos the most. There's something soothing about his narration, music and excellent photography that keeps me coming back. Great to watch before falling asleep, leaving me with images of crystal clear streams, colorful trout and kind people. Well done, Mate..
I totally agree with you. every single video is a joy to watch. And everytime there is a notification, that there is a new video, I get excited becasue I know it's gonna be awesome.
I hope I will be able to go to NZ one day...
Thanks sooo much David, i hope to be able to produce more as it's an expensive 'hobby' but i'll be doing my best to continue with what is a labor of love. Stoked folks like them!
@@TheGertL Very humbled by your kind words and i'll be putting more out soon!

Thanks!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🏴☠️🏴☠️🤘🏻🤘🏻👌🏻👌🏻greetings from switzerland
Greetings back!
Excellent! As always. Looking forward to more.
Thanks for that!
Great video, I'm from the States and have been fly fishing for over 30 years. New Zealand is on my bucket list, hope to be there once travel restrictions are lifted. Thanks for sharing your adventures Mike.
You’re most welcome and thanks so much for watching
Awesome. Love it. Want to fish NZ so bad. Maybe some day.
Thanks and we're not going anywhere soon!
Thanks Mike, that was excellent, very much enjoyed your commentary and the fishing & scenery are tops.
Thanks!
Love your videos, but you’re killing me slowly because I can’t get over there and get amongst it! Hopefully soon.
Haha yeah I hear ya! Cheers for taking the time to comments
Awesome video! The measure for me is the welfare of the fish, you guys did good; less than 10 seconds out of the water and they'll likely survive. Gloves beat hands as our skin temperature burns the Trout's skin and leaves the mark for days! The more we know the more we can look after them 👍 If you want to kill a fish, that's OK but respect it for what it has sacrificed for you! Keep them coming and thanks ✔
Sure thing, we have a great love for the fish we chase and often catch certain trout more than once with no signs of having been caught. Sadly some claim we've 'killed that fish' by handling them with gloves... some actually get really rabid about it, although mostly from anglers based in other countries. So i'm with you and we'll carry on caring the best we can for them and our environment.
@@mikefsher Gloves are a great utility, bare hands leave burn marks on the Trout for more than 7 days! Love your ethics and care for the welfare of the animals that grace us with their sport! We all want more and bigger fish an d we need to realise this is not our ultimate goal! 😎
Thanks Mike for another amazing video I have been looking forward to seeing this years footage. Tight Lines from AUS!
Thanks mate and i'll be trying to produce a bit more!
Superb as always Mike. We're heading into deepest darkness winter here in Ireland looking at your movie wets the appetite for summer trout fishing again.
I hope it holds you over till the sun coaxes birdsong again mate!
Great stuff as usual Mike and Hans. Keep it coming guys!
Cheers buddy and see you soon!
Thanks for another amazing footage, Mike! Well done, keep it up💪🏼
Thanks buddy for watching and glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for another awesome video, Mike! I have booked a camper for February, I have studied maps, books, videos and Google Earth, and I am tying flies. I just hope that you will let me cross the world and let me in to your beautiful country :-) If not, it will be an terribly long year until next oportunity. Greeting from Norway!
You're most welcome and i hope you can make it!
Hey Mike- another incredible video per usual. None other like it! Curious which Winston Hans is throwing?
Cheers and not sure... I know he has a Winston Air 5wt now though.
@@mikefsher thanks! Ever thought about highlighting the flies you use or do tying videos? Cant get enough of your content
@@mattgeiger4703 cheers buddy, yeah i might head down that path someday - probably when im too old!
Was like being there with guys. Congrats on a tremendous fishing day!!!
Greetings from Patagonia!
Thanks so much and tight lines from NZ!
Hermoso video, son unos excelentes pescadores. Mi más profunda admiración.. Es mi sueño poder pescar en esos hermosos lugares. Saludos grande desde Patagonia Argentina.
Thanks so much for your kind words.
Good stuff Mike. Hope we can fish together soon.
Hi mate! Yeah me too
amazing video mike! what rod were you using at the end?
Thanks! Not sure, id have to watch it again...
Hi Mike glad to see you and Hans doing what you guys do best. Great video - very enjoyable. Thanks for another good one.
Thanks you too for watching and commenting!
Great video as always mate. Lovely browns caught. Hopefully the weather comes right for you on a more consistent basis up your way. Its always a pleasure to watch your content. I look forward to the next one
Thanks buddy as always and likewise!
Could you direct us to NZ's travel protocols. I want to come back before my body completely fails. Is this season a possibility? Vaccinated, ready to walk some rivers.
It’s a ‘watch this space’ scenario at the moment but if I had to guess I’d say after Xmas it’ll start to happen
Great video and fantastic angling, Mike! Thanks for sharing. Qq…who makes your vest?
Thanks a lot. I was actually gifted that one from my mate Leif at Guideline.
Awsome video as always👏👏👏. I see Hans using Winston rod. What model is it if u know? And is it Winston Energy line on it?
I think it’s the new Winston Air 5wt
@@mikefsher thx🙂
Hey mike,
Interested to know what camera and lens you are using now. P.s great vid
Cheers for that! Im using the Sony A7SIII and the lens used on here was the Sony 24-70 2.8 GM. I have the XLR shotgun mic attached for better sound. lovely setup.
Nice! Yea awesome camera ay I have the same! that I use for my videography/marketing business. Love the vids keeps me keen when I have no time to get out
Been waiting for another one of your videos, great stuff as usual. Will you be guiding when tourism does open back up? South Island right?
Thanks a lot. Yeah I’m guiding and cover the whole top half of the South Island. Get in touch if keen. mike@latitudeguiding.com
Hiya, greetings from Norway! Brilliant fishing and film-making as always. Would you care to tell what connection you are using from flyline to leader? It's in one of the shots and I couldn't help but wondering what was going on there :p
Thanks for yet another great video of this stunning homeland of yours, topnotch! Hope I'll make it out there one day
Cheers for the kind comments! I run a floating polyleader section using braided mono as a connection. i run a tapered leader off that...
New Zealand! I love your Prime Minister; what a brave, noble, honorable woman! We must give our rights away if people are to survive this horrific pandemic.
Why are you so layered up? Is it cold out?
Yes. That, or too dumb to change... 😂
