Intro was epic 🔥 this video was a banger Dan. Editing/ drone shots and a an unbelievable catch. I know the work that goes into making these vids man. Keep up the great work. I was hyped.
Appreciate it man!!!
OMG! Monster of a fish, great fight and landing him and nice footage. Thanks for sharing.
Heck yah man!!!!! That’s a Delaware sized beast !
What a great trip! The water is so clear! Great watching you bring that fish in! Thank you for sharing and Good luck with everything my friend!
Thanks for watching!
What a tank..It's good to see i'm not the only one who gets that excited about the hook up. Every time my adrenaline sky rockets...Then the calm takes over to land the fish. What I love the most is the serenity and "what I call art work" is the beautiful colors of these fish. that's what life is all about..enjoying GOD's creations and releasing them back for another angler to enjoy.
Amen brother
ABSOLUTELY!!!!!
Man, awesome day of fishing for you! Thanks for the nice break in my day.
Enjoy !!!! Thanks for watching
Love how you tell people wet thier hands always helps people understand it’s important
very important
great stuff, man. great shots, great fish!
Appreciate it !!!
Beautiful fish, enjoyed the drone angles as well. There are some monster browns all around that river!
Very true! Thanks !
Beautiful foto intro btw. That was cool having the drone on you while we get a close up from your body camera. Nice FISH!!!!
Glad you enjoyed !
Huge congrats on an epic day with some epic trout!
Heck yah! Thanks !
love it when a plan comes together!
Absolutely!!!!
Dan Dan Dan, and Dan! My heart was beating hard during this video. Great great video ; a piece of art !!! So cool it was on that river. Love it!
Wish we got out there without other anglers first! I swear that morning we would have probably never left this river ! Would have been crazy!
I hear you man. Early AM key right now it seems. My trip last weekend wasn’t very good. Caught a couple nice ones on my own. Guided float was a total beat down! I’m so ready to be moved to CT this month!!
@@mcgovks I hear ya! Rain soon hopefully! Farmy under 100CFs ! Wtf hahaha
Yes man. I’ll b doing rain dance. My objective is to catch a monster on dry fly by end of this year. I’m hoping we can tackle farmy together this season!
@@mcgovks it will happen. 100%
Well done Dan! What studs!!!
😊🫡
Absolutely beautiful brown. Congrats
Thank you!!!!
Congrats on the great browns!!!!! Tightlines!
😊🫡
Nice! Congrats! Great job!
Thanks !!!
So true haven’t used a spinning rod since i started learning to fly fish 2 yrs ago
Addicting !
What a TANK!! Well done Dan!
Dude ! Appreciate it!!!!
I know this river and it can be very difficult but it’s worth a trip. There are a couple world class rivers in this area. Quick addendum on the opening sentiment…while fly fishing is a lifelong learning process (like any worthwhile activity), it’s not as difficult as you’d think to get started. My brother started well into his 30s, he was regularly catching trout on his own by season 2 and several years in, he’s undoubtedly a competent fly fisherman already with hundreds of trout under his belt. So while anything worth pursuing is difficult and a lifelong journey, don’t be afraid to take the first step. It’s not as bad as you think it’s gonna be…especially with the incredible gear and resources we have nowadays that I could never have *dreamed of* as a young kid in the 90s when I started.
Yep 👍
Good fish my friend! How rare it is these days to have a spot all to yourself, good for you. I've got a spot or two that I almost always have to myself over in VT as well; probably one of the reasons like yourself, I fish alone.
Absolutely man! Maybe we can share water sometime!!!!!
Great video!!! Congrats on the tank!
Thank you man!!!!
Holy cow….well done, one of your best!
Was a great day! Thanks !
Nice job Dan 👍
🙏🫡
What a great video Dan! ! ! I loved the drone footage, I loved the music when that "brute" entered your net. You are such a good fisherman Dan. I am wondering two things. First, what was that trout eating to get that big? Second, the water looked very clear. At first I thought you might have had 5X tippet, but then I thought maybe you were using 4X because you did not seem concerned about that giant breaking you off. Can you tell us was it 5X or
4X?
It was 5X. I think the big girl eats OTHER TROUT! truly remarkable weight and size. Bwo nymphs don’t grow a trout like that! I’m sure she would eat a chipmunk if she had the opportunity!
Awesome video 😎beautiful brown 😲
Appreciate it !!!!!
Outside all around. Just awesomeness.
😅👍
GREAT JOB!👏🏼
🫡
Killer work!!! Well worth the trip down eh!?!? Love the footage.
absolutely!!!
Last brown was an absolute beast!
Absolutely!
Dan - great job - you said you link to the flies you are using during the clip but I don’t see them listed. I heard River Soldier and Stonefly - barbless for catch and release - but don’t see sizes - Thanks again.
hey sean sorry just seeing this.... your order is on the way!
Awesome video
Thanks man!
Well, finally!! You two reunited! And as I’ve been told along long time ago, the early bird does get the worm, but in your case 2 amazingly large tank browns and almost a third. I swear your a big fish hunter , just like the way you hunt Whitetails. Love everything about this video!! Your best one yet! Drone, music , all put together perfectly. I gotta stop jawing do I can rewatch this yet again. Great job Dan! Reunited and I feel so good!! Haha!
Heckkkk yah man!!!!!!!
That’s a great morning bud
I’ll never forget it !
😱 that was a nice fish
Sure was !
Hey Dan! Any ideas where I can go for nice trout near the Stowe Vt area?
Hey! Man I wish I could help! That’s wayyyyyy up there haha! Unfortunately I only touch the bottom parts of Vermont maybe about as far as Manchester. But…. If I had to guess…just about everything up there should have trout. My advice would be to look over maps and maybe pick a watershed that has lots of feeder creeks and maybe hit some spots higher up in the system as the peak of summer may have some of them larger fish working there way up into colder water. Good luck!
What model drone are you using? Real nice.
dji mini 3 pro thanks
good video for sure
Thanks !!!
Damn I love this river. It’s where I learned to fish.
That’s fantastic!
Is this west branch Ausable
@@petemalelis3037 hahaha no I wish the Ausable had fish like this though
Dan I’m in western ma. I have some awesome spots. Hit me up sometime brother. Loving the content as always
Sounds fun! What platform can u reach you on
What a beautiful fish one of gods creations
Truly was an unbelievable piece of nature !
Man you gotta be on something if you thought that first nice one was only 17! Way bigger than that! Those were some amazing looking fish!
Perhaps !!!! Yah it was a great one man!!!! Tight lines !!!!
@@DownstreamDownrange Also sick intro 🔥
@@SCYCOFISHINGHUNTING appreciate it !
Do u ever fish the ausable at the bridge at whiteface mountain? I tried it there because of recommendation and I caught nothing
Yes, I always do well there. Just not this time of year. Water is often too warm to be fishing
@@DownstreamDownrange only one guy caught one there, we were staying in Keene right next to the river and I had one take the whole time, the guys at the Hungary trout said they were suprised I even got a bite in that area
beautiful trout. but idk about fish of a lifetime. ive got a wild WNC brook that big.
For this particular watershed it likely a fish of a lifetime. Of course I could drive over to the Delaware and probably get something over 2 feet! But for this river I was stoked !
Well done
Thanks 🙏
Love the location, which river? Congrats on the biggin!
Thanks 🙏
What river is this? I live in the Catskills and was just curious. And I have plenty of local rivers that are just fine. I'm not traveling so you don't have to worry about me blowing your spot up.
Lucky! I absolutely love the Catskills region!
Wow
Def wow
What a beast.
Was incredible to hold !
@@DownstreamDownrange Your fishing game is on 🔥. I think I was at that river last weekend on the NY side. Didn’t get to fish it but it looked beautiful. If you are planning to fish the WB D between June 16-23 let me know. I will be there for a full week. Maybe exchange some notes.
I hooked 7 last weekend but lost every single one without any break offs. Finally realized the point on the hook was probably dull, had been using that fly for 3 years. So stupid 😩 . When I finally sharpened the hook they stopped rising. 😂
@@beo77 have been without a car for weeks! Soon as I’m
Mobile again I’ll be down in the WB!!!!
That was a dandy
Sure was ! Was fun day!
Wait… where this?
northeast!
Love the new video tech. amp up that bass guitar jam! Sure beats the old days footage of Farmington fly shop guides, rushing at you, talkin' anal/bipolar Nutmeg shit.
So get out to the 'Skills at 5:30, and just flail away. ALONE. And look what happens. Because you were there. (cue the birdsong).
Ahaha
What river?
🤫🔒
@@DownstreamDownrange Ok
Euro swinging lol
😅
@@DownstreamDownrange I do the same haha. Best of both worlds. Really nice browns..
@@deeznutz7365 absolutely! Yes they were cool!!!
