Lost Sierra Creek, Remote Fishing

Hiked off the road into a little canyon for some wild rainbow trout. I was using a #10 green foam hopper and a #14 blowtorch nypmh on the dropper. Rod was a 8' 2wt TFO and the reel an Orvis Battenkill (click paw).
I apoligize for the long gap from my last video. Just felt like I needed a break. I am back now and will be posting videos regularly again.

You have been sorely missed, sir. Glad to have you back!

[@thecalfisher]

Welcome back! Random question, but have you ever seen a Sasquatch?

[@purpledrakefishing]

Never seen Squatch--hopefully someday

[@thecalfisher]

That’s the right attitude 👍@@purpledrakefishing

[@jeremiahhedeen3879]

Good to see you back

[@PaulTenenbaum]

This was so cool, thanks!

[@FrankFerraris]

Really nice to have you back. The wild rainbows looked pristine and full of life. The water had a uniquely blue tint and the fall leaves were beautiful. This is the kind of well presented fly fishing video that I missed while you were away. I look forward to more in the future. Thanks for sharing the flies and equipment you were using. Great job as usual.

[@FreeFormFlyFisher]

We need those nice, long breaks sometimes. Glad to hear you'll be making more videos.

[@UntilJourneysEnd]

Welcome back bro!
Man, that shot of the fall leaves drifting down from the tree tops was the perfect image of fall. What a beautiful place you found.

[@purpledrakefishing]

Thanks and also glad someone noticed the leaves as well. I ended up just staring at them for a while as the wind was blowing them down.
Felt nervous when I saw your last video in Israel! Glad you got out of there before WW III kicked off.

[@UntilJourneysEnd]

@@purpledrakefishing Some of the best moments out there are the ones that make you stop and stare.
Yeah dude, it was a little numbing at first to think where we just were got bombed. Thankful to say the least.

[@patsheridan]

Welcome back PD. Not sure which I prefer - narration or no narration. Either way it's great to have a new vid from you.

[@jred5153]

Party on Purple Drake! Good to see a video from you. I spent a couple days on the Big T last weekend. Fish the lower canyon, near stateline & east of Reno - Lockwood. I was thinking about you. I have a group fishing the private water on the Yuba in earlier December and there are still openings, please consider joining us.
