Great video, bud! Congrats on some great fish. A few tips when spey casting. Cast downstream at 45° angles. This will make for a more consistent swing and more tight line presentation. Point your feet in the direction you want the cast to go, and it will make your casting a lot easier. Hope these few tips help.
Your not really Spey fishing more like nymphing with a Switch rod. Appears to be an effective technique and keeps your fly in the water longer. Nice job
Flyfishing for Steelhead is a challenge. Years ago, I spent a month on the Babine, Stikeen, Kispiox, and Dean. Even with an abundance of fish, it was tough. Great video...
Spey casting bobbers and eggs (is insanely funny) for summer run steelhead during the season that they are spawning in tribs like the south fork is crazy.. it’s crazy that this is even legal LOL.
Use to fish the Clearwater out of Lewiston ID. They use to have a Tournement for biggest Steelhead there. Crazy. !6lbs was the biggest Steelhead I ever caught on a fly rod. The longest journey from the ocean to a hatchery in Idaho for a steelhead.
Thank you for the inspiration and your enthusiasm. Would only advise to just keep the fish in the water all the time. No need to "lift" - you're doing a fantastic job and the reward is even more beautiful when you keep her nose and body in the water. Keep on - keepin on!
Great fish guys. And great video work too. Looked like scenes out of a movie like A River Runs Through It. Maybe you should update your thumbnail with you holding that last steelhead. What a thrill bringing that one in must have been.
Nice fish! I use to fish the same area years ago. Just like you said, the fish move a lot and it can be hard to find them. Did you guys go up into the reservation at all?
Your working it well...try a more horizontal hold with your rod when fighting, its habit to hold the tip like a baitcast rod. When the fish takes a fly its almost always in the first inch or so of his mouth and it spits easier with that tip up ..great vid
Great video, advise is to keep the fishes mouth in the water at all time. The survival rate decreases dramatically once you start pulling them out of the water. No hero shot needed to take a quick snapshot of it in the water for a reference. Be content that you got a chance to shake hands with a beautiful creature. Good luck out there. Enjoy the speedy journey.!
I’m in the Boise area. You wanna know more about spey fishing let’s try and get in touch. I go up to Lewiston and visit my brother and fish the big rivers often with him.
Sorry you weren’t able to experience this video in higher quality! It just rendered in 4k if you want to watch in higher quality! Appreciate your support!
Don't really see an issue with the way you're spey casting for indicator fishing! If you're going to swing flies, different story. Nice fish my friend!
Congratulations! You don't hook steelhead, they hook you. Even at 6-12 hours of fishing per-landed-fish on average. That's a lot of empty Go-Pro footage, and batteries! I'd have a hard time releasing that hatchery fish. Good eating, and a big hawg too! (lol, I thought I was watching Robby Layton for a second when this vid popped up in my feed)
I wish they would close this river. Fishing for summer runs in February on a spawning trib lacks some ethics. These fish are way more fun to chase in the fall on the big river.

What weight Spey rod were you using ?
Flyfishing for Steelhead is a challenge. Years ago, I spent a month on the Babine, Stikeen, Kispiox, and Dean. Even with an abundance of fish, it was tough. Great video...
It’s very tough but rewarding! Thanks so much!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
what river is that?
Wow that’s a hell of a fish
Thanks so much!!
Do you have a video of your setup? I'm just recently wanting to get back into it. I love swinging streamers!
Clearwater?
Spey casting bobbers and eggs (is insanely funny) for summer run steelhead during the season that they are spawning in tribs like the south fork is crazy.. it’s crazy that this is even legal LOL.
What kinda Spey rod are you using and what kind of rod was your friend using?
Yeah it literally started dumping snow again right as you dropped this “spring” fishing video. This weather is playing with our emotions.
No kidding!! That is so funny! 😂🙌🏼
Love the Vid want to see more! Only critique is one of the fish being out of water over 10 seconds!
I try to be as good as possible. Got a little carried away with this stunning fish, I’ll be better in the future! Fish still kicked off great!!
Use to fish the Clearwater out of Lewiston ID. They use to have a Tournement for biggest Steelhead there. Crazy. !6lbs was the biggest Steelhead I ever caught on a fly rod. The longest journey from the ocean to a hatchery in Idaho for a steelhead.
That is awesome! 👏🏼 they are one of the coolest fish man.

Noted!! Thanks so much for your kind words as well. 😄🤜

Thanks so much! Appreciate your support! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
What rod, reel, and line set up do you have?
Indicators on a spey rod. Minus well just pull out the gear?
😂 nah man!
Bro they wannna be fly fishermen
so beautiful love it
Thanks so much!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Curious on time of year? What month was this filmed? And what region if you don’t mind sharing?
This was filmed this month!
What rod and line are you using to two hand indicator fish?
Sage R8 13’0 8WT with AirFlo running line & Rio Skagit Max Launch Shooting Head
Good on you guys. What time of year is this?
Nice fish! I use to fish the same area years ago. Just like you said, the fish move a lot and it can be hard to find them. Did you guys go up into the reservation at all?
Thank you!! We didn’t on this trip, plan on doing so in the near future! 🤙🏼
What Idaho River is this, if you don’t mind me asking.
Your working it well...try a more horizontal hold with your rod when fighting, its habit to hold the tip like a baitcast rod. When the fish takes a fly its almost always in the first inch or so of his mouth and it spits easier with that tip up ..great vid
Thanks for the tip! I will definitely take that into account. Glad you enjoyed it! 😄
Great video, nice fish. What river area are you in?

16:19 what a lovely female steelhead! I am surprised to see quite a few fishermen there!

Dude that’d be sick! Just hit you with a request on IG 🤙🏼
Spey tip. Take the bobber off
Like a sink tip then swing? If so I plan on swinging for some steel this weekend🤞🏼
Nice video. It would have been awesome in a higher resolution.

I wish they would close this river. Fishing for summer runs in February on a spawning trib lacks some ethics. These fish are way more fun to chase in the fall on the big river.
lose the bobber swing em up
