Happy Easter Jeff! Beautiful water and fish, seeing more and more brookies there, and on the bigger side too. Good variety of techniques. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻.
Hey Scott! Looks like we just missed each other! Just got done watching your most recent video. One of these days we are going to run into each other out there. Happy Easter. Thanks for watching! And thanks for all you do for the fly fishing community!
My rod is a CTS Affinity X. It’s a 10 foot 3 weight euro nymphing rod. The reel is a Reddington TILT. I keep a 3 weight floating fly line on the reel. In this video I’m using a mono rig. It consists of a 24 foot section of 20 lb maxima. That transitions to 12 lb amnesia to my 2X sighter. I put a tippet ring at the end of my sighter and use fluoro for my tippet. If I want to switch to dries, I clip off the monorig, spool it up, and add a dry fly leader. The Affinity isn’t the best pure dry fly casting rod, but I don’t like trying to fish with two rods.
Great to you see you spending quality time with your son.
A great way to start off Spring, Jeff. Congrats on an awesome trip! Love those brookies!
Hey Cory! Thanks for watching. I’m sure you recognize some of that water! Hope you’re doing well. Looking forward to your next video!
It’s the best! He’s a trooper. Not always easy to catch these fish. He’s patient. Lucky to have a lifelong fishing buddy!

Thank you for watching Tony!! I’d love to fish in NZ some day!
