Wild Bearings is a collection of goods and of course adventures Sam and Chris take fly fishing around the country. We hope you enjoy learning more about the sport of fly fishing. We do everything we can to teach, respect our waters and the areas we adventure to, and preserve. We've tossed many rocks in streams over the years working with Trout Unlimited and other programs to support cold water habitats. We also donate a percentage of proceeds to The Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation to support areas along this national treasure. We also do our best to respect the fish we catch by using barbless hooks and always handling fish with care.
Note: we love to hear from our subscribers, but if you leave disrespectful comments then we have an "easy" button to just delete them and we will. As a subscriber viewing our content you only have one viewpoint, not all viewpoints, so we'd ask before you poke the bear to think about this statement.

Simple they do not attract lightning ⚡
Watch taking drone shots of dam you’d get BIg FINE
Getting geared up for some Luftee in the Fall. If I get some warm and sunny days I think I might just hit a couple of those nice pools you passed up .. ha ha.
I would for sure... let us know how it went
Sending hate! You guys are the worst kind of trash.
Fished it today for the first time, caught a few wild rainbows!
Man I'd give anything to see the hooch and fish for shoal bass before Lanier construction.
right! but you know there are still areas for that... we don't really do that, but you know it would be a blast...
Was up on the Holsten last month. Check out Tail waters lodge, nice place to stay.
Great point forget about that place it is in an ideal spot and good folks thanks for sharing
Beautiful waters can’t wait to revisit them.
Beautiful 😊😊 scenery
"Natural Seen can't count -Thanks to channel "
😂kp😊u❤❤e❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 0:21 😊ppppp❤❤❤😂😂🎉
Great video guys. Enjoyed and learned every minute. 👍👌
Thanks! 👍
Very good talk guys thank you See you on the river someday!!
Enjoyed this~~~~~~~~~~~~~~tight lines
Awesome podcast guys! I just picked the book up at Casters, can't wait to give it a read!
Awesome! Thank you!
Looking for the surf rod bamboo maker
Is there any place to fish using baits of "power bait" sitting comfortably?
Yeah just below the weir dam you can sit and fish
two casts, two fish. Nice photograpy
Thanks 👍
China sells them for 100$ am they look good
Then I say go to China if that’s your gig
I'm in Nebo tonight headed into the Curtis Creek watershed early tomorrow as a result of this video. Looking for rainbow as my low hanging fruit, native brookie as the goal, and brownies as the bonus!!! Thanks for the insanely good guidance.
Have fun! Keep us posted
That's a great tip.
Glad it was helpful!
I wish I could justify buying one, I do have a deep sea bamboo rod I inherited. Truly a work of art.
The winery is beautiful. The restaurant serves really great food and the wines are very enjoyable.
It really is!
I tied a several of these up and they absolutely catch fish well. Thank you very much for this great little fish catcher!
Great to hear! Truly a go-to for me and easy to zip a few out quickly.
Awesome looking fly. I'm ordering the material now. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
I always get a kick out of the hat, im sure Smoky the Bear would like it back😂😅. Sorry but most of the time i forget wild bearings, I just refer to you as smoky, hey smoky has a new video on UA-cam lets seat down and watch it. Always enjoy your content. Thanks for sharing
That's hilarious! Thanks for sharing that.
That tunnel structure is really impressive.
Just kind of blows your mind how and what they did back in the day. Appreciate the response.
Great video. Have to put it on the list of places to go fish.
Yes!
Bluey! If the van had gotten you there wouldn't have been nothing left except your smoky the Bear hat!
Amen that's the truth!
Howdy Doody!
I’ve caught trout in Lake Lanier.
Yeah they can exist if those ole stripers don't find them first... thanks for the feedback
We love to fish the TOCCOA in north ga...anything comparable for waders???
don't quite understand the question please rephrase and happy to answer if we can...
Watched on Waypoint last Friday!
Thank you!
Awesome hat Sam!
What beautiful scenery. Must be amazing to fish there!
"That bug would bite you!"
Would have been a berrer title!
True that LOL!
Awesome clip! It's own mini show.
Really looking forwards to your new season.
Nice instruction and info. More of these!
Tents are always a challenge! Great music....
The little short clips are fun! Will you be posting any longer clips or new shows? Those are really great to watch. Those are what got my attention.
Yeah for sure these shorts are from the actual episodes already posted. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Would be fun to see them driving through a river!
Have you guys ever fished Jacks River or The Taccoma River in North Georgia? Love your posts.
Absolutely at least once a year for Jacks and we fish Toccoa tail water quite a bit… love the Jacks thanks
Great tie and video. Thank you!
Tne Tennessee River does not flow into the Gulf of Mexico. It flows south past Chattanooga, into Alabama, then turns north again, crosses Tennessee into Kentucky, and joins the Ohio River, which flows into the Mississippi.
Extremely helpful content. Thank you for putting this together.
There are no backcountry or trail closures at #47 any time of year. Every one of them is open 12 months of the year. Now some gates may be closed in the winter.
Looks like a great series. Can't wait to watch!
Awesome video
Are there native brook trout in stock creek and big lost cove creek?
You explain this well. Unfortunately - the supplier of your raw material now knows all your techniques ( developed over decades ) They have no loyalty to you. They will steal your ( freely given ) knowledge, and your Sales will diminish - because they can do it much cheaper ( and now, as capably ) in China. Why should a US fisherman pay $1500 for a rod made in US when they can buy an equally good one ( your knowledge, same materials ) for eg $479.99 ?
we provide information for the good of the sport... we aren't looking for loyalty... our buyers are specific and unique high-wealth individuals that understand the value of a properly made bamboo rod... go buy a $500 bamboo rod and best of luck because it won't last... ours are custom for a reason... one of the key features of a custom rod is the silk wrap patterns and that's where a lot of time and labor is spent... the ferruls used in China are cheap and you can't mass produce a custom bamboo rod. We can debate this all day long, but we get those rods to repair and they are not repairable. Appreciate your feedback.
Oh honestly, Toby, that's not very nice. You might as well ask why anyone would buy a $479.99 fishing rod when you can order your fish ready cooked from the chippie and eat it at home while sitting in your comfy chair watching TikTok videos. 😁
