- Spent the afternoon on the West Branch. Nymphed up some nice trout and almost got schooled during a tricky sulphur hatch. Met some nice folks and had an enjoyable day!
I have been enjoying your videos. I bought a house a few years ago on the East branch in Hancock so recognize all the spots you've been fishing. Beeb tying a lot of flies over the winter and am looking forward to fishing the west branch and my back yard.
Thats aweseome!Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed and thanks for commenting!
It was good to see you figure it out in the end with the emerger fly. You gotta Love the West Branch!
Yeah when you figure something out on the West Branch it always feels so good cause it can be sooo tricky!
Great video, John. I met you by our cars after you caught the big brown. You gave me some medical advice but turns out it wasn’t my back. I had a kidney stone. Got so bad I drove home in pain and spent 4 hrs in the ER. Better now. Wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Keep up the good work . Subtitles are really helpful and your comments informative. Hope to see you again.
Aww man sorry about the stone, I know that can be debilitating, hope it resolves. Thanks for the comments and maybe see you again out there on the water!!
Awesome video! Persistence pays off in the end! Nice job!!
Just saw this musta missed it, only took a yr for me to reply haha!
@@deaddriftoutdoors2940 no worries. That was the account I started watching these videos with. This one SippingRises is my fishing YT channel which your awesome videos helped inspire me to create. Keep crushing it dude. Tight lines.
Nice to hear you listening to the Dead
Thanks man, they are my fav! I was wondering if anyone noticed, thanks for commenting!
@@deaddriftoutdoors2940 Same here brother, maybe I’ll see you up there next year
Just subscribed…great video, loved the effort and edit on music at the end; very nice content! I’m now interested in making the drive from Maryland this year, just need to figure out the details and do a bit more research and spend a few days. Thanks again!
Thanks Mike, appreciate that
Sweet stuff here man. Definitely gonna make the trip next year. I've got plenty of time to get a better understanding of what's going on out that way. 🎣😎
Its worth spending the time for sure, thanks for watching!!
Nice video thank you for posting it I really enjoyed watching it. You fished some of the well known spots visited by so many. I would explore more and find little less attractive spots, also I prefer to fish B class water on wbd just because every angler always targets A class water. When fishing dries I find it more rewarding if I fish dry flies downstream, my catch rate is better plus you can add a soft hackle or emerger like tiny wd40 especially on cloudy days and just let it swing in the current. Maybe I see you there. Best of luck!
Thanks for the feedback, I don't get down to the West Branch as often as I'd like and often stick to the spots I know but should spend some more time exploring. Thanks for the tips I appreciate it!
I LOVE the way you handle fish. WB fish deserve the best care...shit, all fish do. Great video!
Thanks man, appreciate it!
Great video! I’m starting to become a big fan! Love the way you explain your tactics and reasoning behind it ! Don’t worry about talking to yourself on the water , we all do it , ha ha ! I’ve recently started fishing the West Branch and find it difficult to find access areas to good runs .The first spot you hiked into looks promising, can you give me a good landmark so I can find it ? Thanks !
Thanks again, I'm glad you're enjoying the channel! So that first riffle in the video is easy to get to. I did put a map in the video at 1:21 that shows basically where I am but if you are in deposit at the bridge over the west branch you take laurel bank rd which turns into airport rd which follows the east side of river, it goes under rt 17 overpass and then past some houses and close to river. There is an inn called the Gentleman's Club and right after that a fisherman parking lot on right. You follow a trail downstream along field edge and that riffle is at the big bend in the river, can't miss it! Good luck
@@deaddriftoutdoors2940 thanks so much ! Tried to focus in on the map in your video , but came out blurry! Tight lines !
best fight of the day was the leaping sucker. wild world
Yeah they do fight hard lol!
I like your videos and suscribed, because I fish in that area
If you're interested in the measurements of your fish, here's a tip (because I have the same net as yours). Take a Sharpie and on the wooden frame make some marks every inch with the 0 mark at the largest end of the net
Take care
Thanks Michel, I have thought about doing that, good tip!. Thanks for subscribing and watching the videos, I appreciate it!
