- Fly Fishing with Streamers for BIG Brown Trout!!
I was trudging up the creek completely miserable… and quite honestly I should have turned around a half hour ago. At this point I was so wet that I couldn’t keep the water from running into my eyes, my hoodie weighed twice what it had at the beginning of the day, and I might as well have been wet wading. I was becoming increasingly cold but this wasn’t an unfamiliar feeling. The more miserable I became the better I felt like my chances were of finding what I was after. So I kept pushing, and then, almost as if the fish wanted to reward me for my stupidity, I happened.
As usual, on this particular day of streamer fishing I was playing the weather. With the pressure beginning to drop and a major storm front pushing in I knew I had to be on the water. It was one of those days where at some point the bigger fish would have to become active, I just wasn’t sure when. As I fished hole after hole I began to lose confidence… then, as if someone flipped a switch, I started seeing brown trout in almost every likely spot. After a handful of nice fish I figured I better grab the gorpro and document how insane the day had become.
I hope you enjoyed this video, it was much less story driven and much more action oriented. Those were some of the most incredible streamer eats I’ve ever personally put into one video, and I think you’d be hard pressed to find any video anywhere with as many cool eats. Thanks for watching, and I’ll see you on the next one.

Can’t get a better day of streamer fishing than that. What a stream!
Couldn't agree more!!
Ì have never seen a stream with this many big fish. I'm truly happy for you to share fishing like this with people who will never experience such a thrill. Thanks for your time and effort. Tightlines brother.
Glad you enjoyed the video!!
Of all the fly fishing videos I've seen recently, this one tops them all. With the number of high quality browns you are pulling out of a small stream - man, you hit the lottery, but all your hard work and persistance paid off too. I hope this video hits 1 million views dude. Congrats. I hope to some day catch a nice size brown (or any brown) on a fly rod. I'm still learning.
Thank you so much! The video is doing well but a million feels like an unreachable goal 😅 anyways I'm sure you'll get a brown on the fly soon enough!! Just stick with it and good luck out there!
thanks man, well maybe 100k is a better target @@hardmanfishing 🤞
yeah, i went out again today and didn't see or catch anything. but i do like being in nature so that's a big plus. I think I've been trying fly fishing since May/June. Almost every day, caught a few small bass and fall fish, only seen a trout one or two times. Will check out Wildfly!@@cadenroberts863
Great brownies John. Thanx for sharing. Keep up the good work! 👌
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, what an awesome video. Good to see that there's still a bunch of wild browns in the streams.
That is a legit Brown. I’m so tired of other anglers, stating something like “giant_____”, and then catching 16” fish and then freaking out about them as if I didn’t do it when I was 3. Thanks for all your hard work, yout expertise (no doubt developed through passion) and entertaining videos!
It had everything, as always, stories and a ton of action. Fishing in the rain, love it.
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it as always
Watching you catch those brown's never gets tired. You motivate me to get out more and hit the waters. Awesome video and always tight lines. Tony
Thanks Tony! Glad you enjoyed the video.
What a video!!! The six trout are marvellous, and five of them are monsters. One of the best videos I have ever watched: the bites (time 1:17), the powerful fights, the beautiful fish, the peace and calmness of that rainy day…awesome dude!
I’m glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks for watching
Quite amazing! Thank you for sharing this epic outing!
Glad you enjoyed!
Probably my favorite video yet and I’ve seen them all ! Awesome Browns!🔥
Thank you so much!!
WOWWW !!! U out did yourself on this one and what a joy to watch ! Those were some monster Brownies and what a day to remember (for good reasons). Thank you for your persistence given the weather and wet undies ! 😄👍
My undies were literally wet LOL having waders on and feeling the water run down your back is never good. Thanks for watching
Astounding quality of fish in a relatively small stream. Totally impressed. Never seen this upstream streamer fishing practised. In Scotland, where I fish, similar sized rivers tend to have much smaller fish 0.5 - 1.5lbs. I usually use nymphing or dry fly. Typically, wet small attractor/streamer flies are fished down and across stream. Next falling flood, I will give this approach a try! Great post, thanks for showing this! You had a super days fishing, well worth your effort!
I really enjoyed your California series and thought, boy that’s going to be hard to top. Then you go and do it with a 12 min video filled with some amazing brownies and even more amazing takes. Well done.
Thank you!! I had to find something good to follow it up with
Wow what an epic day, when you have to use 2 hands to count the number of 20”+ fish, that’s truly something special. Makes not having a rain jacket the furthest thing from your mind
I don't know why I didn't bring a rain jacket tbh, I knew it was going to rain. But I agree!!
What a tank! Nice work!
So happy I’m not the only one who talks to the fish 😂! I’ll be in that area this weekend coming up!!
Man that is super cool! Beautiful, clean, big browns in a small stream! On a streamer bite no less, what more can you sky for?! You fought them well too considering all the spots they could have smoked you! Close quarters, trusting in your tippet, your rig, hook, etc... You were on point! Awesome to watch! Thats whats fly fishing is all about! Wicked stream too! Nice water color, structure, etc. Bravo! Fish on!!
Excellent day of fishing Hardman.
Absolutely some tanks. Beautiful browns congrats
Thank you!
I dreamed of catching a fish like this. For me, fish of a lifetime. Went to New York and a guide took me out. Caught just one and that will have to do me. Satisfied. At my age and medical condition, those days are behind, so enjoy watching others enjoy success. Your video tops all I have enjoyed. Thanks for sharing. And the flies - you know we all are interested in them as well. Of course, everyone wants to know but don’t ever tell! We have to find for ourselves! 😅
Thank you so much!! And the fly I was using in this video was mostly a sex dungeon, so it's not a super secret fly or anything. Glad you enjoyed the video
Wow nice fish I’m trying to get in fly fishing
Man this gets me stoked! The big brown's going hard in the fall is alway's a winner!
Those were some amazing fish! What a day of fishing!
Doesn't get much better!! Unless I had stayed dry maybe 😂
Awesome man. Beautiful fish.
thanks for the sweet videos. Yours are why I finally started to try fly fishing after spin fishing my whole life.
Heck yeah!! Thank you so much! Good luck out there and I hope you catch some awesome fish on the fly
I'd like to fish there. Thanks for the video. Epic fish!!
Thank you for your storytelling, videography and fishing skills. You truly inspire me to become a better fishing content creator with every video you publish🤝forever fan
Thank you so much!! It means a ton!!
Odličan video, hvala ti. Pozdrav iz Srbije.
This video quality is amazing! And these fish have gorgeous color. Hats off to you for pushing through and sharing this victory with us. God is good man!
Thank you so much! Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Unbelievable that was awesome thanks for sharing bro!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You seem to have hit an entire school of complete monsters. Great video.
Gotta love when a tropical storm comes in early fall 😂 it gave us a good rain too . Streams barely rose much from it because it had been so dry and low water conditions. Hopefully we get another good rain .
Great video thanks for sharing.
Nice job John. Those are some quality Brownies. You made it look so easy!
Thank you!!
OOOOOFT! Probably the most excited I've seen you and with good reason!
Hard not to get excited over that!
Back on the East Coast catching monsters! Enjoyed👍
Thanks!
Crazy day! I can just dream for that trouts!😵😵🤘
that was amazing! thank u for upload this great video,your fans from china.
Awesome Creek runnerz🎉🎉🎉
Yup, that's the weather for big browns! Although I've taken good ones on nice days ... Love it when they have that streak of turquoise on them too.
Wow. Beautiful fish. From the looks of it I would have expected a warm water fishery. Tight lines
I can see why, but it's a bit far north for that I'd say. It probably does get warm in the summer though, although I have no idea
Awesome video. Jeez, those trout spun like crocodiles to get off the hook. Some amazing fish. Looks like a great trip 👌
It was an amazing trip!! Thanks for watching
Great video! Monster browns in a beautiful river. Pretty tough to beat.
Thank you!
The rewards of being a very, very skillful fisherman.
Man you got some killer browns down there.
Small streams,big trout it dont get any better.👍
Wow, super cool video. What a day on the water you had. So many great things here, starting with the quality of the fish. But there is much more. That is a beautiful piece of water with such interesting structure, and you read the water perfectly. Nice upstream casting with a perfect retrieve to let the streamer naturally drift and swim downstream. At the beginning, that undercut with the brush laying on top, you coaxed one out of there. Most fisherman would not have bothered, too technical and no back cast and WAY too many sticks to get hung up on. Then luring that one out from under that bush, brilliant. But the one at 4:46 was pure gold. Tight spot where the stream narrowed to maybe 3 or 4 feet, a tree trunk, and fast water and you found him. I'm not sure I would have even bothered to cast to that spot. Heck, I know I wouldn't have! Again, brilliant. And I love that you didn't mess around too much playing them with all the structure and obstacles, get them to the net. Thank you for sharing it.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video
Greatest trout video i've ever seen
WOW!!😳that was the day on the stream you only dream about all the hard work TU did years ago really has paid back with great dividends for savvy fishermen like yourself, and big treats equals be eats Thanks again
What is TU?
f... awesome!Greetings from London!
That final scene reminds me of the final fish caught in "a river runs through it". Awesome fight!
That was one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen! Very impressed with of course your angling ability and even more with how you made this video. Most people would do a carrot and stick approach with it being all stick and little carrot. You my friend said forget the stick here is a whole carrot farm! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for the kind words!
Beautiful fish, beautiful area, what more could you wish for, just maybe no plastics in the water. Great video.👍👍👍
No doubt!! Glad you enjoyed
Amazing day! Great video as always!
Thank you!!
I am watching n enjoy this video
Beautiful browns!!!👌👌
Thank you!
So sick!!! 🔥
Jon, welcome back from Califreakifornia! And, that last fish was an absolute monster!
Thank you!! California was fun but this was wild!
QUALITY! as Always. Thumbs 👍
Glad you enjoyed!
It's rare to see for my such big trout in such small stream. Very beautiful area and great fishing. Im jealous
I’m guessing you’re near home. Travel the country and home has to show you it can have amazing fishing days too. Love it. Keep up the great videos.
Awesome!
What a day! That was awesome!
Glad you enjoyed!
Just had Amazing day brown trout fishing this past week.same weather pattern here in Missouri. Caught ten browns over twenty inches including two five pounders and a 26 in the went 7lb. Gotta love fall

Such beautiful shots of those fish🤝 killer video dude
Thank you!!
Speechless 👏👏👏
EYE POPPING ACTION
Amazing again Hardman.. there’s a stream w similar conditions in NE KY of all places that I hit and very occasionally have landed 18’s. You likely know it!But they don’t get this big.
Gorgeous place 😀
Those were some footballs! 😮
I love when you are streamer fishing.
Me and you both
Absolute dream day on the water🤩
Good stuff!
Wow, never seen a stream like that. Huge fish and aggressive!
heck yeah man. great video.

holy crap that fish at 4:40 was insane lol!
Good night dude!! What a video! Your the brown trout streamer king!! Awesome action!! You may hit a million views on this one!! Great job! Tightlines
Thank you so much man!!
Best video i have seen for a long time.
great fishing!!
Thanks!
Incredible
those are some beautiful fish!
Thank you!
What a beautiful stream but it sure is a bummer to see the trash.
My gosh I now stoked to go flyfishing in the yellow breeches this fall and catch some wild browns. And wild Brook trout
Sick video. Just stumbled upon your channel. Good stuff here man.
Thank you!
Thanks for your response. Have the browns been planted? For. Sure they are
big.
WOW! The quality of those Brown trout were "AMAZING!" Not sure where this creek is but I would risk rain, snow, and sleet for the opportunity to hook one of these slobs! What a blessed day you had. What State were you fishing?
Beautiful browns
Looks like Pa stream. I know a few streams that hold fish like this. Great job and right lines!
Thank you!
Insane video🤯 so hyped to fish streamers now 😂👏🏼
It's streamer season!!
What an epic day man!!!
Just stumbled across your channel excellent ..Do you use the same rod and reel for all your fishing if so what is the rod and reel brand please....
Amazing
AWESOME!
that was stud brown trout congratulations.
Thank you!
Nice, can you talk about your set up a little more. Line, flies etc. thank you
@@mcviscardohe will probably reply but I wouldn't worry too much about tippet size when streamer fishing big streamers. Anything around 1x should be fine, but definitely wouldn't go any lighter then 3x if expecting anything decent.
I don't eve use tippet half the time, but when I do its usually 1x or 0x. Line is floating streamer line from cortland, don't need it to sink on small creeks most of the time. Flies were sex dungeon and circus peanut mostly
@@hardmanfishing very nice of you to share. Thanks for the response
AirFlo is the only fly line you’ll ever want.
Badass video and awesome catch brother
Nice One!
That was some incredible wild brown fishing dude! That Rod looks like it loads like a dream. What set up are you running??
Love the streamer videos!
Thank you!
Huge browns, thank you!
what the hell this stream is insane, that's world class!!
