Excellent video deserves a mill subs! That little Jig Streamer looks fire, I gotta tie one! I can tell you put alot of time into the creativity of this film, something I need to do "quality over quantity".. Excellent work and beautiful fish! Look forward to the next! Tight lines Steve at Black Fly
Thank you so much dude! They take some effort that's for sure, but it's a fun process and I love looking back at my videos to remember the day. I'll check out your stuff!
@@blackflycreations people could learn a lot by reading your back and forth here. This is a how to on being kind and decent while sharing the same interest for something.
@@geoffbippes6015 I'm using some size #4 level line, with a section of indicator material that alternates white, green, orange, to a tippet ring, followed by ~2-3 feet of 6x tippet. The rod is 9 feet in length, so the level line is about 7.5 feet, followed by a foot of the indicator material, followed by the tippet. Hope that helps!
It would be nice and make your videos more interesting if you could tell us the length of the rod used and who makes it, the size and length of line used, the net maker and such. You are doing a great job on describing the flies and the video as a whole. Thank you so much for filming them..and making them available...K.
Another great video...I think your best so far! That micro streamer is awesome. I use wooly buggers a lot with great success but you've got me interested in the streamer for small creeks.
Thanks dude!! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I've got 5 more I've filmed recently on deck, had some really great fishing / filming days, just gotta get editing! This streamer pattern just crushes it all the time, it's so great. This one has a 3.8mm tungsten bead on it, and with the smaller profile it gets down quickly, don't hesitate to try it on some bigger rivers too!
Great vid and great channel, glad I found you! Do you tie your own flies if so do you have any instructional vids on that cdc pattern, or did you buy it?
Hey Kev! Thanks man, glad you found it as well. I do tie my own flies. That CDC streamer is one of my most requested videos/tutorials. I kind of love creating videos of fishing instead of tying, but hopefully I'll get around to it! This video is where I got the idea originally - ua-cam.com/video/QpZ5AfKQ2Vg/v-deo.html
I was just out there last week and I think I fished a similar area. I fish similiar streams in the N. GA mountains. Wondered what shoes you are using and if it works well while wading? I grew up wading in tennis shoes and shorts and still pretty close to that set up, but looking for shoes with a little more grip but rather not spend crazy bucks for traditional fly fishing boots/shoes. Thanks,
Nice! I'd love to do some fishing in Appalachia. I use the Croc Bistro model. It's gotta be Bistro. They have insane grip on wet rocks, the best I've ever used. Problems with them, they can act a bit like a sail in fast current and of course they let in some stray pebbles here and there. But I love them. Your mileage may vary of course, because they sure don't seem to be a popular option among the community :)
Well Flicky, I like your style and you have a new Subscriber here. If you’re a local guy, we should get out and fish sometime. Maybe do a video collaboration. I have a trip planned to the Sangre de Cristos in late August and also, one to the Winds for Goldens in early September before heading to Montana for a week. Let me know if you’d like to fish sometime and share information and stories,, Matt from Trout Soup
Dude, thanks so much for stopping by my channel! I'm up in Fort Collins, would love to get out and fish and film together. Those trips sound awesome, let's find some time to fish in between them!
@@FlickyFlies Sweet, I’m in Commerce City near Brighton so not too far. I fish a lot of stuff around the city more and more before July. Unfortunately for me (fishing wise) I have my kids in the summers from June until the end of August this year on my weekends and they don’t really like to fish too much. Stay in touch and we can get out and fish for sure
If you look up a CDC micro bigger on UA-cam Tim Cammisas channel should pop up. The one in the thumbnail is pink. That’s basically the pattern I’ve been tying. It’s been killer.
Thanks dude. It’s .9 ounces if we getting county!! It’s a Suntech Tenkarabum Traveler 27. 9 feet long. Love the rod, has JUST enough backbone to throw a single tungsten bead fly if you want to, but makes the smaller fish feel so fun. The streamer has an olive Maribou tail, olive hares ear body, and an olive CDC feather loosely spiraled up the body. Tons of movement in a small profile. Oh, and a 3.8 mil light pink tungsten bead (for, in this case, a size 10 hook).

@@FlickyFlies For sure my friend! Good talent deserves to be rewarded. Take care man✌

A very enjoyable video. Beautiful countryside. Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it! It’s so beautiful up there.
can you please tell us about that net...
Absolutely! It’s a Handy Pak Net. Amazing little 8 ounce, packable net. I’ve got a nice fishpond net as well but I use the handy Pak Net much more.
@@FlickyFlies Thank you!!
Great Vid! Don't you just love when they fight over your streamer!? Can't wait for your next upload!
Thanks my friend! Yes indeed. When the streamer bite is in it’s hard to beat!
Thanks for watching guys! What a day. Moose, mountains, and tons of brookies on lightweight gear!
What are you using for a line? How long is it?

Totally agree! This one is the Suntech Traveler 27. Thanks for watching!
Can you provide some information on your net?
For sure! It's the Handy Pak Net. This particular model runs around $30, weighs 8 oz. Perfect for long hikes in and for backpacking.

Another great video! How can you wade in that cold water bare legged?
Not gonna lie this one really hurt haha. I’m known to always foolishly wet wade whenever possible, but this fresh snow melt definitely stung.

Excellent vlog and enjoyed it. I've been using tenkara for many years and love it. Also in FC if you want to chat.
Thanks dude, glad you liked it! Tenkara is really great, love it. Maybe we could go do a little fishing sometime for sure!
Awesome scenery man! Cool you saw a moose out there too. I’m excited to put that net to use myself
Thanks bud, it was really cool! Definitely startled me when he busted out from some willows WAY too close though!
Do you have a video reference for micro-streamer fly or a recipe? Looks easy to tie and it works, too!
If you look up a CDC micro bigger on UA-cam Tim Cammisas channel should pop up. The one in the thumbnail is pink. That’s basically the pattern I’ve been tying. It’s been killer.
which rod? 1oz total?? crazy! also, what’s the recipe for the streamer? great vid as always

@@FlickyFlies solid, thanks!
So tenkara is basically a cane pole with a fly
