I forgot to say how much I enjoy your videos. No dumb music, no dumb commentary, just an angler’s view of the stream, with fish caught, fish lost, and lots of helpful information on flies and rigging. And you are a very skillful angler. This stream has lots of snags and tree cover and the fish are easy to spook, but you make it look effortless. Keep up the excellent work. It’s great to see this stream through someone else’s eyes.
Thank you very much for your comment! Your cheerful words have greatly motivated me!
Ginormous fish! great video!
Thank you so much!!!
Superb video and the fishing was just as good. Fair dues on landing that monster dude…..I’ve been in that position and lost a huge brown because it wouldn’t fit in my net…..I bought a bigger net and landed my PB in the same spot a year later!
Thank you for your comment and for sharing your story! Actually, I made the same mistake using a small net and lost a big brown trout 😂. I was surprised that you experienced the same thing! I also bought a bigger net, this was revenge for me as well. Congratulations on your PB!!
That is a nice looking Brown Trout.
Looks absolutely amazing!!
@@polarbearfelly Thank you so much!!!😆
Looks like a 15lber too me. Beautiful fish. Well done 👍 🎣
Haha Thank you very much!!!😁
Greetings from the Big Sky! New Zealand is a place I've only read about in magazines. I hear the fishing is pretty good.
Thank you for your comment!
Yes, New Zealand is a paradise for trout fishing!
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx Greetings from the BIG SKY of Montana snd thank you. Catch a big one for me.
Greetings from the bigger sky of the South Pacific. Come join us in NZ. Best trout you’ll ever see and your US Dollar goes far here. Don’t die wondering buddy.
Great video and great fishing and a beauty of a brown. Thank you for sharing
@@andrelaishong577 I’m so happy to hear that!! Thank you for your kind comment!!
Congrats on the PB! Great day on the river. Can I suggest that cutting down the sight indicator will make it much easier to cast? Regards, Paul
Thank you so much!!!
Oh that’s true. Thank you for your kind advice!!
Magnificent!
@@BodhiTrout Thank you so much!!
I hate to say it, but you probably should not post location data on the internet if you ever plan to go back there and still catch fish. "North of Rotorua" is good enough. I'm sure you can understand why.
@@thomasneal9291 Thank you for your advice.I usually don’t mention the spot, but I was too careless this time..
I deleted that comment.
Thank you so much for your kind comment again.
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx Yeah, I wish the world were not as it is sometimes, but... it is. I got taught this lesson by a good friend of mine who taught me how to fish for steelhead in Canada a long time ago, long before the internet even. More applicable now than ever.
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx I wouldn't worry. Anybody in the Waikato area of NZ recognises these streams straight away.😁. Great work to land the big brown in such snaggy water, though. You looked like you had to work very hard to get him into the net. What breaking strain did you use and was it fluorocarbon?
@@davidgreen1593 Thank you so much for your comment!!
Yeah, it was a long fight..
I was using 3x fluorocarbon tapered leader & 8lb fluorocarbon tippet.
I fully understand how hard it is to land a really big trout on light leader by yourself! It happened to me in Montana. I hooked a large brown on 5X and after quite a bit my rod arm was getting tired because the fish was heavy. Finally I had to use two hands on the rod to lift the head and then quickly slide the net under the fish. It was 25".
Piece of heaven...dont give yourself a heart attack landing those big fish.
Haha I was almost gone😂
Looks like a ton of fun! Have you ever tried euro nymphing? It would be very effective in a stream like this.
Thank you so much!!
I haven’t tried euro, but I’m curious!
I think this stream is suitable for euro too!!
Just about any river in NZ when fish are spawning. Especially if they are running up river from a lake. Bit of fun.
Really nice video with som nice fish. Wanting to Get myself a flyprodusenten cuz now i now of a lot of places to fish👍🏻
Thank you so much!!!
Have a great fishing life!!
How in the world do these fish not all spook and completely disappear? It looks like they are under 20ft away? Is this normal? Thx for any explanation. Amazing fish and fight!
Thank you for your comment!! Yeah, it’s quite close as you mentioned.
Of course sometimes trouts spook and disappear. But I’m trying to target trouts that are not too cautious.
I am carefully and stealthily approaching the trout from directly behind, trying not to be noticed like Ninja.🥷
larger trout coupled with clear water mean you can spot them from a mile away and stalk them and get quite close
It could be the time of year. They're hungry after spawning and so more amenable
Seems like they were getting ready to spawn? not a jab just wondering
Thank you for your comment!
I guess so too.
Awesome video mate. Thats one very productive day on the stream. Was this moring or afternoon? Cant wait till 1st of December.
Thank you so much!!
It was the best day ever.
It was in the morning.
I know~ I can’t wait either.
I regret not going more often before the season ended😱
Have a good fishing mate!
may I ask where is this location ? don't have to be exact but general
Thank you for your comment!
It’s in Rotorua NZ👍
Wow, great content!! This creek looks so much like one of my favorite creeks here in West Virginia USA, it has the same type of structure and bottom type. Today I fished it and the browns were destroying a stimulator dry fly. It’s like they hated it, they were eating it like a bass eats top water baits. Thanks a bunch!!!! Approximately how long was the big brown ?
@@wvlongshooter3912
Thank you so much for your comment from USA!!
I like this kind of small stream😄
I would definitely love your favorite creek too!
Thank you for sharing your fishing story! Wow, that’s an aggressive brown😳
It was over 70cm and great condition brown!
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx just subscribed. Very interesting channel!!
@@wvlongshooter3912 Thank you so much!!!
What weight fly rod are you using? Looks like no more than a 5-weight, so all the more impressive that you landed that monster brown.
@@tenkarapondfishing4611
I’m using 6wt fly rod.
Thank you for your comment!!
I use a 5 weight in many small nz streams works fine even on the larger models wouldn't go below that tho
Is this a spring creek? Looks like it.
@@tenkarapondfishing4611 Yes it is spring creek👍
Congrats on your pb brown! What was the length?
Thank you so much!!
It was about 70cm😊
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx great fish. My pb brown this season was 60cm and 5.5lb
what river is this if u dont mind me asking?
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx shot
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx what car park did u start at
@@zanderolivier5458The one with no cars in it!
Don't you see how spooked those trout were? They are darting back and forth. NZ trout must be very naive to be able to catch them after being well spooked.
Can someone guess the weight of this brown trout??
70cm, good condition... maybe even fatty. hmm, about 3.7kg? A stream monster, that's for sure, though not too rare in that particular area, as the stream is a spawning stream.
@@thomasneal9291 Thank you for your comment!! Yes, it was quite fat. I have never weighed a trout, so I was curious.Thank you for guessing!
It became my memorial fish😊
@@HealingFishing-ce7dx I put up a link to a random reference you can use to get a baseline idea to work from, but in case it gets disappeared by youtube, you can just google search on:
Brown Trough Weight Length Ratio
and that will give you a list from various sources.
My mate caught a brown jack at 62cm that went 5.25lb, I caught a 60cm hen that went 5.5lb
70cm Tasmanian brown and in condition like that, would weigh 8-10lb easy. Nice fish.
A good day’s fishing! Have you considered bending down the barb on your hooks? A lot less hassle when it comes to releasing, and obviously better for the fish.
@@struck2soon Thank you so much!!!
I have considered before, but never tried in NZ. I have been too afraid of loosing fish because I didn’t have many chance to catch fish before.
I used to do Tenkara in Japan. I always used barbless hook and I liked it.
Thank you for your advice! I’ll try it next time!
