Spring Rainbows: Revisiting a Favorite River
Вставка

- A few weeks ago Connor and I took a trip to one of my favorite rivers. This video takes a look at a few of the highlights chasing rainbows with euro nymphing, sight fishing, and dry fly approaches.
You can find the videos I mentioned about leaders and fish fighting at the links below.

Awsome fishing¡ congrats and thanks for sharing¡¡
Glad you enjoyed it.
I really appreciate that you provide instruction or refer back to previous videos while catching some really nice fish. On a side note, but not meant as a slight, Connor has such a diabolical laugh!
Amazing stream and a great day. I think every fly fisherman has one of those spots you just cherish.
This is certainly one of them for me.
Really enjoyed that, keep 'em coming.
Thanks, will do!
AND...I love your videos! So helpful!!!
Thanks for sharing!
Nice.......best time of the year
It is nice to be out during our short green season in the West.
Thanks for live feed. Calgary Alberta
Thanks for watching!
Wow, spectacular river. Great production as well - the intro was fantastic!
Thanks Brian
Killing it , great edit.
Thanks
Connor's maniacal laugh - let's just say he's planning on taking over the world, or at least the fly fishing world.
Does that make me Pinky and Connor the Brain? 😊
@@tacticalflyfisher3817 Well you are not feeble minded, but then Connor definitely sounds up to something that isn't likely to work :)
@@spikeconley :) Thank you for not collapsing my ego.
How come your rivers have so many more fish than my rivers? 🤣
That said I have learned a lot from your videos. Side pressure, bring them upstream, slide into the net worked this morning on a nice rainbow. And retrieved my flies, 3 for 3, from trees! Caught a 2.5 inch fallfish too, definitely fought above his weight! 🤣 I figure if I am getting the point of noticing a take from 2.5 inch fish, maybe I'm getting somewhere!
Oh, some of your sighter wax showed up yesterday - very cool stuff! Really works.
Thanks for all the videos.
Glad our videos have helped!
Utah has great tailwater trout action
I learned some new dance moves at the start of the vlog!
I’d be careful deploying any dance moves you learn from either of us!
Great video, as usual. I have two suggestions for future videos:
1. Neon Wax. I may have suggested this previously. If so, I apologize for repeating myself. As a viewer it would be helpful if you waxed your sighter before filming. It would enhance the viewer’s ability to follow the drift.
2. Riparian Cover. Here in the California Sierra where I live there is a lot of water with 70%-90% riparian cover. Most of your videos are made in pretty open water. Maybe you could do a video with tips for Euro Nymphing in heavy cover.
Thanks again for the great work.
Gary,
1. We actually applied the wax quite often throughout the day specifically to help with it showing on the camera. When you have a wax sighter on 6x or 7x, it simply doesn't show on the camera well unless you have bright sun on the sighter and the water behind being dark or in shade.
2. We have made videos on casting under trees and getting your flies out of trees. Part of the reason we don't have a lot of riparian scenes in our videos is simply the challenges of filming around it. For stability, filming on the bank is best so that's hard to do in a setting with a riparian wall.
OK. Thanks. Guess the only answer is to CGI a really thick, bright sighter. Lol!
Hello, when using two flies do you use a dropper or straight inline ? Thank you. I enjoy your videos.
Always a dropper tag Jim. Glad you like the videos.
What's the front end loader mentioned by you nerds? hehe

Random question, Devin. What model and size of reel are you using in this video? Thanks!

What color perdition we’re you using? Thank you
What size tippet?
We fished 6x and 7x
what lanyard necklace is that?
In line or tag end set up for your flies? Heavier or lighter fly on top or bottom?
Heavier fly on point/the bottom
Conner - what type of bag are you using? Thanks
It’s a hip pack from a brand called Emerger.
How much to disclose the state? $$
Which model of contact is it ?
It’s been a while since we filmed this video so I’m not sure but most likely the 1093 contact ii.
@@tacticalflyfisher3817 This is the model I want to buy,
Does it get good feel on small 10" fish?
I am looking for a versatile rod that gives a good feeling I mainly fish small fish but I hesitate between 10'#2 and 10'9 #3.
Can you fish big rivers with the 10'2? And 20" fish?
@@axelg4263 you should look at the Contact II review video we recently published.
Big fan of your videos, but man your intro is so long and so loud!
