U guys are easily the best fly fishing youtube channel
Thank you for the encouragement - heaps of channels and glad this one connects with you :)
The "trout hopping" opener is something else! Fantastic vid TY all.
:) thank you - glad you caught that in there
Perfect simple bow river video with beautiful music placement. Love it
Glad you do :) Great river to break down and enjoy
A true gem of a river for trout.
100%! :)
Best opening segment of any video yet this year!!
Was a great day and offered some neat visuals :)
gall dang, that introduction is insanity, incredible footage! 22:40? 27:50? absolutely crazy
Thank you - glad you enjoyed it :) A wonderful river through this time of year!
I totally agree about fishing these flats ... as opposed to slapping foam around. I like stalking and fishing over active risers anyday.. I'll take 2 or 3 of these over a 50 fish day on hoppers, seriously get more enjoyment out of this. Great video, loved it.
Just did 2 days on the Bow and in 2 days walked 4 banks. It is an amazing river this time of the year for what we all love :) How has that water we rain into you on earlier this summer treated you?
@@jensenflyfishing tried it once more and found several skinny fish that looked like they were in rough shape and stressed so I've left it alone until temps come down. I did get one about 5 minutes after you left on that presentation I was using :) a nice 23" male. It was great to meet you guys on stream and get to chat for a while ...
@@brianpeace7585 sorry we got crazy busy for a couple weeks here. Between the heat, weeds, didymo coverage it's a miracle any bugs hatched this summer and those post-spawn rainbows just haven't had a chance to eat. Hopefully fall & winter offer a chance. And yeah, it was good to just sit and chat. When people are like-minded in finding one, it offers time to chat now & then :)
Wonderful! I'm like you, I far prefer the dry fly action downstream of the mouth of the Highwood. Not as many big fat fish down here, but they are far more willing to come up for a well-presented dry fly. A 16- to 18-inch rainbow in this water is most typical. Outstanding video, guys!
It being quieter and even when it isn't the usual groupings come in over 90 minutes and you have the entire river to yourself otherwise... and when you can cast dries or get up on banks and sight and film on a river to yourself to chunky trout, perfect! :)
Just got off an overnighter drift. Fun to notice the same spots we fished. What a fun river!!
:) it is that! Bet you had a great time :)
Still a few days... June 26th to July 14 .
Will be exploring the nature for 3 weeks. Flyfishing camping and relaxing. First stop, Ram Falls river ❤
Keep up the good work.

:) Should be a great trip! We've had a cooler, much wetter spring so you could be very well-timed :)
Hope to see the Bow clear up in the coming days, but more rain due this next week will not help. Best wishes you guys
@@MedicJ.D aw man, hope so!
Thanks
Jeepers - than you for your continued support. It definitely is part of what keeps this channel flowing :)
It is a great looking creek rite there
heaps of great water on the Bow :)
Love your guys videos !! Very educational and amazingly put together!! … hope to be able to make it West one day to experience it 👍
Great to hear - hope you get out this way. We do a little guiding on it so drop us a line if you want to fish that way a day or two :)
Dave how do you find that 4 wt H3D - as you usually fish the H3Fs - thanks for another informative video again
So since this was shot last year we've kind of been 2/3 and 1/3 the newer H4 prototype and the H3, moving almost exclusively to the H4 since. As Orvis Field testing crew I've had the h4 in hand nearly 2 1/2 years now and honestly moved mostly to it once I got it :) THAT all said the 4wt H3F is perfect for this video situation, water types and fish. My preference is the H4 now as it kicks in a little more backbone than the H3 offered while not losing any flex point or energy to load - in fact it is more efficient and a noticeable touch to spot-on point & shoot. You can't go wrong with either my I'd look at the h4 with an eye to different lines. I use the Hydros Trout DT as we do a LOT of casting in tight where there is less fly line than leader length out of the rod.
Hey, you're robbing my banks 😄. Nice job folks.
well you left the kinds home alone and they certainly take cany from strangers! :)
@@jensenflyfishing 😄
That seems so amazing! Wow! I will be in Canada in July, British Columbia. Unfortunately I have only a spinfishing rod with me. Do you have any advice for me? 25 gr or 45 gr rod?
No idea re: spinning gear as we're a little too focused on the fly :) Heaps of options for you in BC tho!
@jensenflyfishing what kind of net do you use? It has a scale built in and Ive seen it in a few other videos, I think it’s the coolest thing ever.
It's neat - that's the Macleans trout weigh net, mid handle. They're new zealand based but have a distributor in n America
Nice one.Tight lines. 🏴
Thank you kindly :)
Why do you have such a long leader, also what is the formula you use for it?
Hi there... the why really comes down to "why wouldn't you use a long leader?" By not using one and being familiar with it and knowing how to apply it to every trout situation, you leave yourself wide open to spooking trout... isn't it best to be prepared to use it by default and be more successful from the get-go than to not use one by default and struggle to use one when you encounter shy trout? How people are taught to fly fish is incredibly backwards. We outline the how, why, etc in our Fly Fishing Trout Streams Master-Course that is part of our digital memerbership: www.patreon.com/jensenflyfishing/about
Thanks for that info appreciated
If you have any more questions or clarifications please shoot us a note
Mel killed it
Some fun fish right there! :)
Very nice 👍
love the Bow!
