What makes you think so?

@@Fisher_Munro The shape and size of the spots

You'll have to give me more than that. I've caught a ton of these fish and to my eye, that's a cutthroat. The way the spots extend from the back almost all the way to the belly looks cutty to me. I have caught many many bows with throat slashes. That is not a distinguishing feature. But this fish just has the body of a cutt IMO. I look at tons of fish every week, and it just rings the cutthroat bell in my head. Obviously, this is a juvenile fish, with par markings; that makes it much harder. But I have the advantage of having gotten a good look at the bigger fish I caught from the log jam. And that one was very distinctly a cutthroat. Which also makes me tend towards cutthroat for this one.

@matstaley388 nice! Reading water is fishing IMO. Doesn't matter how good your technique is if your not fishing on fish!

​@@Fisher_Munro Hit me up if you ever come to Bend. There's some great water here.

@@matstaley388 I will make sure to do that! Thank you!

Great question! I love throwing an indicator on my euro set up. Generally if I need to fish farther away from myself the indicator is much easier. It's also good for deeper/slower water. I keep it in easy reach and I swap the indicator on and off all the time. Faster, rockier water? Definitely sticking to the euro set up.

@Damdochax there is fly line on there, but I like to keep my leader long enough that I don't ever have to deal with the fly line

@@josiejodosiedoe thank you my friend! I appreciate the feedback!

Man I would love to, but I live in Portland. I haven't fished the Rogue hardly at all. I guide it as a white water rafting guide, and I don't have much time to fish while I'm on the clock. But we raft from Almeida to Foster Bar so that's the stretch I've laid eyes on. Good luck to you fishing out there! I hope it's been good this season? I tore my Achilles tendon about 2 months ago so I haven't not been able to get out for myself.

@@allengray5748 thank you my man!

@Kalenechenko unfortunately this isn't a location that I'm willing to give out online. I'm happy to name well-known fisheries like the Deschutes. But a spot like this doesn't see very many anglers in a year and probably can't handle very high pressure. That said, in the Cascades, there are hundreds if not thousands of lakes. The Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area alone boasts over 600. I find lakes by purchasing a map/maps of an area I'm interested in, and looking for them. Best method I know of. Not many folks out there will be willing to share the names of good fishing mountain lakes they know. But so much of the fun of alpine fishing is in the hiking, exploration, and discovery of something unknown that feels like it's all your own. I highly encourage you to start finding some of these places. If you have a general region of Washington you're interested in I might be able to point you in some directions?

@@josiejodosiedoe thank you! This would be a perfect place for us/friends to do some backpacking!

@@huckleberrysfriend thank you!

@@kenmorecounseling I think so too

@kerryguidry9457 yeah there are good arguments for killing them. But the way I see it, they are a native fish with just as much right to be there as any other. And more important to my decision making than that, when I've killed them in the past I've felt bad about it, so I don't kill them anymore.

@@josiejodosiedoe I will! And I already have several others out!

@@ericalbertson1092 thank you very much, it means a lot!

@minnerisland0889 yeah! I raced 4A! Swam at Inglemoor high school if you know it? Held a state record in the 200 Medley Relay for a couple years! (I got carried). Lol I apologize for the bragging moment. Anyway, good for you, swimming is so hard! And maybe it'll make you better at fly fishing!

@@Fisher_Munro that’s awesome hopefully I get carried too 😂 I have already had to go swimming to do some fishing lol. I have raced 4a state once with west valley in the 500 so hopefully I can make it again and I’m hoping to break the school record for Selah in the 500 🤘

@@minnerisland0889 good luck to you!

@@Fisher_Munro thank you and tight lines 👍

@@Season1Ep3 oops! That's what I meant to write! Redside

@@Fisher_Munro oh no worries brother wasn't sure I'm sure either would work🫡👊🏼

@@alderfelley8787 I actually didn't say that. Matt made it up. But I'm fine with that assessment!

@@hollygauger7109 I appreciate it!

@@AidenElliott-z3x thank you my man!

@alderfelley8787 me too! Probably my favorite rafting river in the state!

@@YeshuBenPandera yes indeed! I assume you've been?

@@josiejodosiedoe awww you're the best! I am grateful for the support!

@song4993 my apologies but I don't usually give out the names of rivers I'm on. Good luck finding some water though! And say hi if you ever see me out there!

Good question! Are you a salmon fisherman yourself? I think I do find myself drawn to trout most. And sometimes I wonder why. In part it's cause trout is what I grew up on. Nobody ever took me salmon fishing. I didn't have a way to go. But I could bike to the local creeks and catch trout. I also find trout fishing to be more engaging than salmon fishing. It demands very fine gradations of reading water. And I love reading water. Not that salmon fishing doesn't but it's on a different scale. Trout fishing is also more engaging cause you catch more fish. Trout are easier. Keeps it fun. And you cover so much water. I really enjoy seeing a lot of water and adventuring over the terrain. Salmon fishing is much slower. My favorite fish are probably summer steelhead cause they split the difference. They eat more aggressively, like trout, but they are still big. I dunno, I do love trout though.

@fightthefishpnw5455 thank you very much! I fell behind on editing cause I was so busy this summer. But I have tons of content filmed. And I am currently bed ridden due to a surgery, so it's editing time!

@@Fisher_Munro sorry to hear you are stuck in bed. But happy you got the surgery. Hope you heal fast So you can get out on the water.

@fightthefishpnw5455 thank you so much. I really appreciate all the support, I can certainly use it right now!

@@UnderwaterFishFilms thank you! Oregon indeed has a lot to offer!

@dsddavesmith yep, just pulled a hook. I fish heavy gear, it's extremely unusual for me to break a fish off

@@Fisher_Munro Good man ! It was a great encounter

@@ericalbertson1092 wow! Thank you so much!

@@flyfishingwithphil7676 thank you! I'll have some videos later this summer with some much bigger fish out of this river!

@@prolificnorthwest thank you! It is a ball!

@prolificnorthwest thank you! I haven't fished them again sense, but I do plan to. I've been doing lots of new stuff though!

@@prolificnorthwest any chance you know how to carp?

@@Fisher_Munro that’s awesome! Can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to!

Kinda sorta. I used to fish for them from a raft at Smith & Bybee like 20 years ago. It was fun, they would take a dry fly. It’s been a bit though.

@@flyfishingwithphil7676 I hear it works! I assume you find em!

@@Fisher_Munro Yes they are usually pretty small, but occasionally I catch some good ones. I see carp around too but have not tried to catch them.

@flyfishingwithphil7676 that is good to know! I plan to do more of this but I've been rafting so much I haven't had time. Some epic rafting videos to come though!

@lheftw1376 shoot me an email at fisherflyfishing1@gmail.com and that will be the best way to continue a conversation! I appreciate the interest!

@@Fisher_Munro sounds great, I’ll reach out to you pretty soon once I get back into town and know exactly what I’d like and discuss what materials you may or may not have. Thanks man, be in touch via email! Thanks man

@@lheftw1376 looking forward to it!
