Wow Tristen, that appears to be the true nirvana of tenkara fishing. Tough hike in, beautiful stream, amazing fish, that’s what it’s all about. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure; this is a video that I will revisit often. I’m 78 and will never get there myself, but I can certainly watch this vid and go there in my mind. Thanks again for sharing; you made my day. 👍
Thanks for the kind words, Larry! It's a special place, and I'm glad that came through in the video. Thanks for watching.
Better to have no audio than no clip. At least we get to see those beautiful little guys.
One of my favorite things about fishing is being able to see some of the most unique and beautiful places this planet has. One of my favorite things about RUclips is being able to see places and people's experiences that I will never see or have. Your channel allows for both of those.
Just rendered speechless. Watched it, then watched it again. Will keep watching it. Thankyou
The best days look like this, the golden trout fishing with music was beautiful.
When I was a kid (60 years back), I along with my Dad and several of his work buddies used to catch a 4-seater Cessna prop out of Lone Pine, CA. We’d fly to the wilderness area, land on a cow pasture about 11k ft up. The man’s name who had this business was Bob White. He had gotten permission to fly up there with an old tractor (in parts) reassembled at the top along with a large wooden 14 ft trailer. We’d fill the trailer and off we’d go deep into the wilderness area about 10 miles. Bob would dump us off right along Golden Trout Creek, and for 10 days we were pioneers catching the limit EVERY DAY of 20, yes TWENTY Goldens. We could stand on massive beaver dams and catch our hearts out (they are great fighters, and “pan size”.) This went on for years until the Sierra club, and the forest service Rangers went into this valley of Golden Trout stream, and the lush Golden Trout meadows with dozens of beaver dams. They trapped/killed ALL the beaver, destroyed ALL the dams. We were heart sick, the beautiful flawless meadows were a marsh land after their evil deeds. . After our ten days there Bob flew us back to Lone Pine, and we went straight to the Forest Service headquarters in LP. When asked why, they said they HAD to do it because the trout could not get past to lower streams. There were several attorneys in our group, engineers, and me, the overly polite, yes sir-no sir raised kid. But, I was really ticked off and opened my mouth to speak (usually kids were to be seen and not heard)…however I asked, with no fear, “How the heck did the Golden Trout get over, around, under, or thru the dams for the thousands of years before the Sierra Club and the ‘Protective’ Forest Rangers came along to MURDER all the beaver? The whole room went dead silent. My dad simply said, “out of the mouths of Bairn ***babes****. Yes, Scottish blood yelling FREEDOM was boiling in me. I’ve NEVER trusted the Sierra Club again (Communist). Same stoooopidity here in Idaho where I live now. Forest department hauled in the Canadian wolf, NOT native to Yellowstone. They have spread thru MT, ID, WA, OR, and N. CA. They are massive, and deadly. They also brought in the Yellow Hockweed to supposedly reduce erosion after treeing the areas. Hockweek is an invasive weed, HORRIBLE. If we are caught with the yellow weed on our land WE can be fined. They also just recently imported Grizzly bears right above me…not a natural habitat for them. Cattle destroyed (but the WISE of our time say ‘no meat’, just bugs so they don’t care). I have little trust of any of our ‘forest keepers’. People in ivory towers making decisions when they don’t know SQUAT of the reality on the ground.
Sorry folks, got riled up. What was once a great memory for a kid growing up, is now a sticking and fighting point for me.
As a fellow Idaho resident I too have seen the destruction brought on by these policies and idiots pushing them. I have been doing my part to control the invaders. Uphill battle but I’ll keep at it.
@@Idrivthetrain Absolutely! But, the hill is getting harder and steeper for me! 👴🏻
@@alexrodgers9247 I’m happy to pick up my pace to help out. At 51 I refuse to admit. lol. Stubborn to a fault my wife tells me. But she also married me for a reason so……. Haha
I both love and hate you for not giving the locations 😘...cheers for one of my favorites of your videos!
That is the closest a human being can get to heaven alive.
Perfect creek 🤩
I agree! Thanks as always, Carlos
Where your at must be what heaven looks like, beautiful creek, rocks, fish, blue sky and even flowers every where. I envy you your youth and sence of adventure .
What amazing scenery and what an amazing fishery! I never could get to the “golden trout adventure” on my fishing bucket list; and should it never come to pass, then my sincere thanks for your video - it will suffice beautifully and most effectively!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! This really was a gorgeous place to fish.
Always loved fishing for Golden trout in Montana. They, along with the scenery of their environment, are absolutely beautiful. I never minded the hikes to get to them, either. Great vid, thanks. Enjoy.
Nope, me neither. They're always worth it!
Sadly, we missed out on a few "see ya, buddy's" when your audio got corrupted 🤣. Looks like an awesome day out fishing though dude, and was definitely worth the effort getting there. I haven't personally fished anywhere that's held golden trout yet, but they sure are purdy! I'll most definitely have to try and catch some one day when I'm in the right area and have a rod with me. Great vid, as always!! 🤙
“Livin’ the dream.” Can’t describe it any better than that Tristan. Thanks for sharing your awesome experience!
Thanks for watching!
Ive recently been catching up on your SUV channel and didn't realize you did a fishing one too. I hike in the sierras with a 3oz tenkara rod and have had a ton of fun pulling out trout like this. Great sport
You've fished some amazing creeks, but I definitely think this one is right at the top for sure! Some people fish the lakes, I fish the creeks!
You and me both!
I am just imagining all the "fish on!" and "See ya buddy"s once the audio cuts out lol
There's Gold in them thar hills !! I agree with you , the Goldens just may be the most beautiful fish in fresh water ! I'd settle for some plain ol Rainbows . They do stock the Guadalupe River which is near me . Maybe I can make it next year , probably not this year . Great video , thanks for takin us along 😎👍👍
Amazing spot. I had not realized you had so many videos on this channel. I'm going to have to catch up.
The secret spot in Utah... Those were monster Golden trout. This spot in Wyoming looks so much like the Eastern Sierra mtns in Ca.. great video .
Actually, that music only section was really soothing. Probably should have about 5 or 10 minutes of that in all your videos.
Little creeks like this are my favorites places to fish when I can find them.
Just did my own "Tristan Voiceover." My wife was laughing so hard... 🤣🤣
Did you say thanks Buddy After Every Release.😀😀
Mostly "See ya laters" and "Catch ya laters"@@markvanderstelt8999
Thanks so much for this adventure! Pass the word… dry hands kill trout…
Yep, which is why I always wet my hands before touching them. If you think I touch one without wetting my hands, look again 👍
Incredibly awesome.. Thank you very very much for sharing this .
That last part with the music actually worked pretty well! The chosen genre seemed to match will with the fishing. Maybe add more sections like that in the future.
Beautiful creek. Thanks for sharing this video
Picturesque 🤗
The music is also nice, sorry for the aidio, i do like when you talk about yge fish, location, the rods you used etc.
Not that I don't enjoy your commentary, but the music was nice. Good stuff!
Wow! great catch! and keep it up! careful up those rocks!
Beautiful location and fish.
There are a few designated wilderness areas in North Georgia that have some nice native trout water. I sometimes catch long skinny ones resembling many of those you caught. I found out that is caused by low nutrients in the water and a 9 or 10 inch fish can be quite old. I always release native stream reared trout and just catch some stocked trout if I feel like eating some. You westerners have tons of natural trout waters where I imagine they do little stocking unless maybe of fingerlings.
You always get a like from me right away!!! About to hit the streams myself!!! Cheers!! #1
Golden trout is the most beautiful fish and add the surrounding area, stunning
Just fabulous.
Outstanding Tristen! As usual, you bring such scenery with your fishing!
Its never a wasted day outside even when i get skunked. This location is stunning in every way! And the catching is beyond ...no words to disribe the combination of location and catching goldens...WOW. Just Wow!
Man, I have yet to land a golden trout. Nice work, Tristan!!
What's up Brian!! Get that Tundra built out and get after some if you and Sierra get the chance. I've been on a golden trout mission for the last year lol! They're scattered throughout my area, I just haven't pulled it off yet. You definitely have to work to get to them, but I'm down for a long day, or a few nights out. I had one on last year, then broke my tip section on some rocks behind me, slack lined it and let em go haha! Take care Brian.
Thanks Brian! Apparently they're in just one or two places in Colorado. We should hit them up together!
That place is absolutely incredible ! Just amazing . I have always loved trout fishing, one of my favorite things in life. I would go there just to see the place!!! Much Thanks
It really is an amazing place!
Those are some beauties.
Awesome video and amazing fish. I can’t believe how big they were. I enjoyed the music at the end actually. It was a nice “wrap up” of a great day. Thanks for what you do.
Great video…Beautiful scenery and Beautiful Fish!!! I’ve never even seen a golden other than on your videos. Thanks!!!
What a great video.
Beautiful video. Much respect to your adventures and presentation. I too shared in your excitement catching those gorgeous fish. I love your narration and explanations plus all the useful information. It would be interesting to have an ASMR version of this video without narration, just nature's sounds.
That first fish was epic.
That is so cool
Thanks
8 miles in???!!! O. M. G. you are in awesome shape. Awesome ‘job’ videoing and editing.
Absolutely breathtaking scenery and incredible, at what little space trout can make a healthy living. Thank you for the beautiful video! What a lucky man you are to have such waters to fish!
I am indeed!
Such gorgeous trout and a beautiful creek! I enjoyed this video so much! Thank you...
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
This is my favorite video of yours. Great scenery and beautiful fish. Thanks for this and all your videos, I really enjoy them. See you in the next one.
Awesome, I'm glad you liked it!
Such a beautiful location! Do you ever keep any for a meal over a fire? Based on one of the things you said in your tear drop camper review video, I think I remember you saying that you don't like to cook, so I am going to guess that you probably don't keep any?? Either way, thanks for taking us along. Very beautiful fish!
Thank you far sharing a perfect day out enjoying life the way it's meant to be enjoyed. Absolutely friggin phenomenal Tristan!! I hope you're enjoying being back as much as we're enjoying you being back lol!! Cheers!
Yep, it's great! Lol thanks for watching
Beautiful stuff, Tristen! Any chance you would divulge the location? Looks like the Wind Rivers.
Amazing
Hey, fantastic setting... I would love to fish with you some time [my pre-bucket list]... I fish for goldies in my native Scotland. What was the monitor and IT setup u had ... no wonder the vids are sooo good:)
Beautiful creek, no issue with the sound. love the golden trout, well spend day, what is not to like about a hike like that. 8 miles off trail, isn't that a stroll in the park for you? Thanks Tristan.
Amazing video. So glad you are posting again. Absolutely beautiful scenery and trout. Looks like I have another adventure on my bucket list.
You sure do! Thanks for watching.
16:00 - I'd say it wouldn't have been a waste if you didn't catch anything - That'd be a great day hike 👍
I like the music only section better 😂 next time play Pablo Cruz
Beautiful!
Hey since you stopped selling the wool yarn where would you recommend as another source?
You really struck gold here! 😮
That waterfall is unreal. Looks like it might be in entry to a fancy hotel or something. Beautiful fish.
It really does! Thanks for watching.
Just a stunning video thank you again for bringing such high quality location and videos look forward to the next one
Thanks for the kind words!
Honestly, gets no better than this.
I can't disagree!
A stream with golden trout--and landscaped with pink flowers! How do you do this? Only the wind knows...
Great content as always thanks for sharing it
Thank you!
I'm from Wyoming and there are two drainages that have significant golden trout in them and I'm trying to figure out which one you're in by looking at the background. Lol would love for you to tell me whether it is the north-central part of Wyoming or it is in the western section of Wyoming.
Absolutely stunning! Awesome video like always!
Just two things in my mind. First I'd really like to see at least some times how you replace the hooks out of the fishes. And for more excitement: I'd like to see the catches without the drawing before when they bite. But just my opinion!
Thanks for your work!
Great fishing! . I assume you prefer tekara creek fishing over fly rod ?
I was wondering if you see the trout and know where to fish exactly beforehand? And also, do you see the trout biting the fly or is it all based on rod/line action?
How often are you walking through deep silt as you move upstream and is that a problem? If so, how do you deal with it?
Low risk. Even if there were no fish, the scenery in beautiful, had the place to yourself, great day all around.
If I have a 10-12’ zoom pole, how long of a fly line do you recommend before adding tippet?
Tenkara Addict montage is a happy accident.
Those lake fish may be bigger, but they cannot compare to the coloration of those stream fish.
Are u in the wind river range.
Since the Golden trout is imperiled in the creek where it originated, I hope that Wyoming and other states can maintain a pure population of them keeping out rainbows and cutthroats that might hybridize with them.
I know Wyoming makes efforts to maintain the purity of their brood stock.
