  • Back in June, me and the fam headed out to the Delaware River in New York to fly fish for wild browns and rainbows. The March Brown hatch was pretty good. We also had a Golden Stone hatch while we were out there, an iso hatch, and a light coffin fly fall.
    The fish were a bit dramatic. One tied Will up in a log jam but miraculously, he was able to NET the fish OUT of the LOG JAM.
    I was fully convinced that I had a bulky rainbow on the line only to realize mid-fight that it was a chub (or as some lovingly call it, a freshwater tarpon). Dad caught a beauty of a rainbow and in the excitement of the photo op ended up DROPPING a pricey fly rod setup into the river, never to be seen again. tears
    Another fish tried to give Will a fish flop farewell but he wasn’t having it and slapped that fish back out of the water with his BARE HANDS.
    Bonus footage - Keep your eyes peeled for some underwater fish release shots.
    Keep lines tight, my friends!
