    Hey good man, you, alone, have introduced and inspired me to get into Tenkara fishing. My birthday is coming up and I intend on outfitting myself and getting out on the beautiful streams and waterways here in northern New Mexico. Thank you

      I made the mistake of snacking on apple-cinnamon oatmeal, trail mix, and Tang while hiking some backwater areas. A bear cased me for a couple of miles like a stray puppy. I must've smelled like a buffet table.

    Gorgeous creek, Tristan! Well fished. I think you should only fish your one favorite fly from now on. The UKK ONLY. Something about having only one fly in the box makes the whole day richer.

    Nice series of videos on small stream fly fishing with a Tenkara rod set up. I've been using a conventional fly rod for years now but have been giving some thought to picking up a Tenkara rod for backpacking and fishing the small streams in the Smokies and Colorado back country creeks. Thanks for the inspiration.

    You’re more brave than I am; I’ve seen too many bears kinda close. If I had scared that little black bear, I’d probably have headed back to my car.

    couldnt detect if it was a black bear positively, which arent known to attack humans, yet that doesnt mean they dont give me a pucker factor when they bust outta the bushes 15 yds away. So fast and quiet....such a beautiful and abundant fish'n hole!! Jeeeesshhh...

  • @Deanna52ish
    @Deanna52ish 5 лет назад +1

    This is sooo cool! A bear and such beautiful and huge fish. I love watching you catch fish; however, I don't get how you hook them. I never see you unhook a hook from their mouths.

    • @TenkaraAddict
      @TenkaraAddict  5 лет назад +1

      I usually don't shoe the unhooking part because it's not very interesting. Often the hook will come out on its own once the fish is in the net and the tension I off the hook. Otherwise I just remove the fly with my fingers. Occasionally (once every 20 or 30 fish) I'll need to use pliers to remove a hook that is a bit deeper in the fish's mouth.

    Is this the raft river range? If not, then technically those Yellowstone cuttys are not native, they are just wild. The raft river range in NW Utah is the only snake river drainage in Utah with native AND wild Yellowstone cuttys. That is, if i remember correctly.

    Do you ever use a strike indicator or are you so close you see the fish take it?

    • @TenkaraAddict

      Basically I watch the line and use that to determine if a fish is on. No strike indicator.

    Remember: the bear is just as afraid of you as you are of it.
    Since it could rip you to shreds in under 5 minutes, that’s probably not true.
