  • Long awaited Episode 5 of the Catch and Cook and Camp series. I drove up north to Siskiyou County and visited a couple nice lakes under Mt. Shasta. After catching a nice meal and cooking the fish up outdoors, I drove east to the McCloud River. A beautiful river with areas of take and areas of catch and release only. Hope you enjoy the video!

    This has to be my favorite kind of video you make. I've been waiting for one of these since you made the video of you sleeping in the hammock. Now here it is, I've watched it twice already because I love the scenery. I also like it because I've been fly fishing for about a year and a half now and let me tell you I can see all the mistakes I was making when I was trying to teach myself the art of fly fishing, but don't worry you will get it in no time. You will be surprised at how many good people like the guy that helped with your setup you will run into. Most of what I know now is from good people like that. Just make sure to return the favor if you ever see someone that knows less than you, even if it's not much, teaching someone a little hint might keep them motivated enough to continue learning, instead of giving up. Thank you for uploading this awesome video that I can't stop watching keep doing what you do Matts.

      flyfishing is the most worthy pursuit. when it all come together it is just amazing. most important is to not try to cast too far at first and to control your line after it hits the water. a lot of these norcal streams and rivers can be fished well with twenty feet of line out and high sticking it. add fly tying a little down the road and your set for life man. i'm a self taught fly fisher and welder homes.

    • @EnriqueGarcia-gw7xy
      @EnriqueGarcia-gw7xy 6 лет назад +2

      Steve Stringham I agree, I can remember the first fish I ever caught on the fly. It was a tiny little brook like five or six inches. My excitement was overwhelming because I saw it come out of a little hole in the tiny creek and take my elk hair caddis. I was hooked from that moment. I've always been intimidated about tying my own flies, but I definitely will try to catch a fish this year with a fly that I tie. Thanks for the tips my welder brother hahaha

    Flyfishing tip: Forgot this one until I saw you plowing through the bush. Walk with your rods pointing behind you. The rod will follow in your path like a train with very little snagging. Pointing ahead is very difficult as you try and watch your step and watch the rod tips. Give it a try, you will be amazed. I know I was.

    Hey man, I'm a guide from Maine, I've been watching your videos for awhile and I've been watching your evolution into a flyfisherman, your cast looks awesome, you're doing it alright, but you should work on your fish id! There are tons of different color combos just for the rainbow trout alone, from Frye, to Adult they always change. And work on your fly collection! Flyfishing isn't just dry fly and nymph fishing! There are tons of options, of all types streamers are my favorite, they imitate baitfish, crawfish, etc, and often times it is the bigger fish that seek them out because they are used to burning the energy to eat a bigger meal. not just eating bugs. Flyfishing is an art, not just a hobby, it takes practice and patience. we throw a ball if we have a 3 fish day, sometimes you can't keep em off your fly, but often times its a struggle. but a fun struggle, practice makes perfect man, I have spent countless hours casting in my backyard or just going out and catching bass and sunfish to get used to the feeling, keep up the work dood!

    You did an amazing job. Your fly casting is actually very good. You should be very proud of yourself. I would suggest getting a whole bunch of flies. Atleast 5x what you brought. Lots of dry flies, lots of nymphs, wolly buggers, streamers for big browns, everything. Then just learn a lot more about what food sources the trout eat on. After learning a lot about that, you are going to get good really fast. I can tell that already by just watching you fly cast. If you ever need pointers, drop me a line!

  • @kevinwang8638
    @kevinwang8638 6 лет назад +17

    If u were fishing the mccloud, then your first fish was a McCloud River redband. If it was above the falls, congrats...that’s a heritage trout. For dry flies, you should add small size 16 or smaller parachute Adams, royal wulff, blue wing olives and elk hair Caddis to your fly collection. If your going to nymph fast water (indicator or tight line), you need to add some weight to your leader just above the tippet to leader connection to get the fly down to the strike zone.

    I think it's awesome that you get so many sponsors. No doubt they work because I have never heard of Siskiyou County but now its on my list. I am retired military and my wife only has 5 years until she retires. Once our daughter is on her own we are buying an RV and hitting the road. I already fish and travel a lot. Within the last year I have fished Oklahoma, Missouri, Tennessee and both the mountains and the coast of South Carolina. In fact I was fishing earlier today with my little girl, we both only got one. I am heading back to Tennessee at the end of March for 10 days. I also have a trip planned for her spring break in April down in Tampa and another trip planned for Oklahoma in June. I want to thank all the states that extend fishing and hunting opportunities to veterans and disabled veterans. I don't want to leave any out but I will list the ones I know. Texas, California, Missouri, Illinois, Washington, all give disabled veterans some fishing benefit regardless of state residency. So, no doubt I will be fishing those waters!!

    Hey dude, you are my favorite RUclipsr! You may have taken some heat over some of your videos in the past, but good for you that you keep going and doing your own thing. I believe what you do will pay off if it isn't already. Your videos are getting better and better. You also have something the others just don't do and that's the cooking part. I started watching the classics years ago like Bill Dance, and now primarily watch youtube content. Stay safe and keep them coming.

    Mend right when the fly hits the water, if you don’t have an indicator then you want to do what is called high sticking, or czech nymphing. Basically you keep your line vertical and follow the fly down stream with your fly rod. I am a self taught fly man. Taught myself by watching youtube almost 12 years ago!! You can do it!!!! Your first big fish on a fly rod is a life changer, you will be addicted. Also that was a baby rainbow that you caught.

    • @Betteroffwet
      @Betteroffwet 6 лет назад

      great advice Mike -- I learned that trick mending as soon as my fly landed and it has double benefits, sometimes the little flip when you mend stimulates a strike, if not you have your fly mended for the drift!

    Hey man that feeling you get with your first on a fly is exhilarating. Now tie your own fly and do the same! Some tips, try high stick nymphing it will help you mend less and have better line control. Also you should have several spoils of tippet progressing in size. I would have fished 4x flouro tippet in that river. Also with your roll cast, make sure you properly load your rod by making a d loop behind you. You’ll get more distance. You can also do a single hand Spey cast for confined areas which is pretty much an advanced roll cast. I’m local to the bay too we can hit it on the fly sometime if you want.

    The big black insect you found under the rock is called a stonefly, theres dozen of patterns for them and are very, VERY, effective. The nymph you said you don't know what is called is a Prince Nymph. Oh and I believe the flies that you were talking about before you found the huge stonefly are caddis larvae, they like to enshroud themselves in the local substate, thats why they look like they have got a wood body. I hope this info does you good, tight lines!

    I just can't stop watching your videos, man. They're so cozy & inspiring and it's really amping me up to one day actually succeed in catching any sort of fish. I recently took up fishing, but the area that i live in is completely empty right now. We have a nice little lake & an okay river (which usually contains trout & salmon during season) but i've been fishing for days without success.
    One day, maybe i'll strike gold.

    When your fishing right behind a rock try to do a high stick technique where your rod is high enough in the air to where not much line is on the water so it can’t be caught by current and make it not look natural you will also get better control and be able to set the hook faster.

      You put one of those on a hook and cast out into a lake...guaranteed fish dinner. Trout love those things. Hook it through the thorax (harder shell part just below the head) and you'll probably even get two or three fish off one bug.

    Don't be afraid to pull line out as it goes down stream if you like where its at. Maximizing your dead drift time. Flies with bigger bead heads to get down into those pools and let your nymph bounce along the bottom. You can swim your wet flies too so fishing with a nymph is more forgiving, if your drift is a little off it will still look natural. Mayflies and emerging caddis swim. I like black wooly buggers. pause and let the current straighten your line at the end of your drift. The current will load your rod a little bit for better distance unloading your rod straight upstream. Pull line out every time you will be amazed how far you can deliver it no back casting necessary. You looked good though fly fishing is allot of fun just keep messing around. Your trial and error approach is how its done. Bring Philosophy D next time and send him on a mission to collect and identify whatever insects are in and around the river. Matching the hatch is important and I'm sure he would love that. Take pictures of them and go back to outdoor pro and match them up. You're a natural. Two trout first time on the flies. Keep it up you're on fire!
