Dry Fly Atlantic Salmon - Flowers River Labrador
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лют 2021
- A morning spent at Ladies Pool on the Flowers River Labrador proved to be quite successful. The dry fly action was tops and the company was great. The fish were here and were quite active.
Thanks for Watching
Lucky guys !
Awesome video!! Can't beat the still water dry fly takes!! Keep them coming
Great looking dry fly water.
Fantastic Video Chris
Awesome video!!
Absolutely brilliant ♥️♠️🐟
Sick video!
Great footage
Love those leaping be Silver
Nice shots Chris!
Ay, much thanks my friend. Take care
Awesome
Fish were eating the emerger. Head/tail rise. No other dries on the water.
A sunken fly would have hooked up. Pull the fly under just before the zone and bam!
Atlantic salmon don’t eat once they enter freshwater.
So difficult sometimes to know when not to set the hook and not to
magnifique coup de ligne et quel poisson
beautiful
The takes are awesome man!!
What is your rod and line setup?
There's no such thing as pulling too quick on the salmon if he wants it he's got it
You have obv never fished for atlantic salmon and definately not a big one. I live in Norway and i have landed close to 2800 Atlantics and my largest is a tad over 54 lbs and i can assure you that you are very wrong Mr. It's VERY important to let them turn before you set the hook because Salmon are not trout and dont turn no where near as fast.
@@MrKveite1 2800 fish...cute. you are WRONG actually, but like others here, you think the fly has to turn, have the fly sink, or disappear...all wrong. @heplamp8041 is exactly right. yo can pull the fly away from a fish in clear water if it hasnt hit it, but by the time this angler in the video even THOUGHT about a hookset, he was way too late. just in case you missed it before...your're wrong. Guide = junk.
Hi Chris nice video what pool is this ?
Mostly at Ladies Pool. Fishing from Boat.
Yes nice video work . I fished it from the rocks last year so it looked different
Praying for rain already
While the rises were indeed exciting, that angler missed an awful lot of opportunities to hook the fish. When a client is paying big bucks to visit these lodges, a good guide can make or break the trip. Proper instruction on hookset would ensure a tight line, then onto the next fish that's ready to strike.
I disagree. If I don't see the fly disappear, I don't set the hook. If you are really in tune, you know when they take it.
@@robertheal261 if you really are in tune you would know the hook doesn't have to disappear for the hook to set.
I'm pretty in tune... I'll stick with view.
🤣🤣🤣🤣@@robertheal261
I would have had that salmon on second cast what u at me son
@05:20
Am I missing something? You didn't set the hook or set it waaaay too late on at least 7 fish. Yes, i understand these arent little rainbows and you have to let them eat. Rare opportunities squandered.
Hello, Thanks for the comment! I agree, definitely a few hook sets were missed. I was guiding and filming and my clients were fishing. Some of the rises were not full committals because of high sun and poor fly presentation. I've seen many a salmon in this river come up and bump the fly with their nose. That happened a few times here. But unlike with little rainbows, if you pull on a big fish that doesn't come well in this type of clear shallow slow flow river; my friend if we are being linguistic here- you too would have a rare opportunity squandered.
It is much better not to pull on a fish if you aren't ready for it, or if you don't think the fish has it well. It will spook and won't come for a fly. I am not saying that happens in all situations or rivers, but in this river chances are high it wont come back.
I've had clients work a fish of 25 lbs for 3 sessions in one day, it was laying in about 4 feet of water on spring, wouldn't move until the evening session and it gave use two shots but the fly started to drag both times through his mouth as it rose and regardless of the client pulling each time, there was no love on the other end.
It's clear you have little experience in dry fly fishing for Atlantic salmon. But I do agree that the fish had the fly a few times, and mistakes were made in this video.
I hope you learned something today.
Best,
Chris
nope. poor guide, poor angler.
@@StillwatersEdgeAgree with the guide. Some opportunities missed, but when you’re fishing glassy water with flow, it appears the fish is taking the fly 10 out of 10 times when in reality, the fish has actually taken it once or twice. All other times, the fish is bumping it. I don’t know about that water, but some other commenter mentioned emergers based on some hints shown in the video. I would agree. Some big emerger pattern, cast it way up and over, and immediately drag it into the zone with the fly slightly submerged but still visible. Probably giving too many hints, but when fish appear to rising to dries but your strikes keep missing, it means either (a) you’re setting before you say “God save the queen” or something or (b) the fish is just bumping the fly and rejecting it.
But the fish in the end did take, the angler struck, and fight was on. Typically when there are fish rising and you luckily hook into one, it’ll be the runt fish or the close fish in a rising pod. However, that released fish in the end was monstrous. Great job by angler and guide!
Wow. That landed fish at the end was much bigger than i thought.
Frustrating to watch.
Silly fishing. You must keep a tight line by mending but this fisher tries to hook the fish with a slack line. Not once, not twice, but over and over. Where is the guide? All the equipment, many salmon taking, but lacking in simple knowledge. Nutz! Barry Knight, fishing salmon and guiding fishers for over forty years.
Ewwwwwwwww😍
