Ditto on the preference for creek fishing. I also share your disdain for wilderness noise polluters. Whether it’s due to a complete lack of situational awareness or arrogant self-indulgence, either way I have no tolerance for the behavior. Thanks again for my favorite Saturday morning viewing experience!
I’d suggest you bring a diddy bag and clean some trash. I bring one knowing this problem isn’t going away anytime soon. If anything the problem will unfortunately expand, only way to help is to pickup others garbage.
This is my first time to comment. I do myself flyfishing, but I also used to do Tenkara. Tenkara is handy for small streams and complicated environment such as trees and bushes which will block from casting by flyfishing. I enjoy very much both fishing method, and thank you for introducing the Tenkara style in US!
Some people just suck. That always has been the case and always will be. If people 100 years ago had had iPhones, I'm sure there would have been losers back then playing their music for everyone too.
I almost fell outta my chair leaning into cell before you netted that Golden!!!! Kudos, My Brother! Kudos! Thanks again for making Saturdays a better day!
Here in Texas I get mostly ponds and lakes. Best so far with my tenkara rod was about a 3lb largemouth bass. I had a CBC Bluegill Special and caught a small perch it front of my daughter and I felt a heavy tug. She saw me pull in the bass. I do not know what happened to the perch but I was pretty excited with the bass. GOD Bless you and your families
Great fishing day and I also enjoy your adventures in your SUV RVING you tube channel great views, places and amazing climbing mountains. Thank you for sharing your time with us.
That's my favorite Utah lake! Glad you picked up the golden here. That 10" Brookie in that stream is pretty good sized considering the altitude of that lake. Good job!
I’ve lived in Utah my whole life and trying to figure out what lake it is honestly there’s so many high mountain lakes and they all look similar though the peak in the background is pretty distinct so I’m sure if I had ever been to this one I’d remember where it is
Fished this lake today and the fishing was slow. Only got 5 fish after about 4 hours and all were brookies. Have to go back on a less windy day and during the summer when it’s nicer. We are solidly in fall now so the weather was way cooler. Fingers crossed I can still find a golden! It’s been quite a few years now since they were planted in the lake and I don’t think they really succeed in spawning there
Hey I don’t know if you read comments, but can you make a video about how to get into fly fishing? Also, what is more beginning friendly, lakes/ponds or creeks/streams?
I don't usually do that kind of content. I suggest checking this out: ua-cam.com/video/gYusbqvl2po/v-deo.html As for which is beginner friendly, that's hard to say. Lakes/ponds probably? But that's not really tenkara. Tenkara is mountain stream fishing.
You'd be surprised at what those little brook trout will bite. Before I fly fished, I used texas rigged flukes for them. Caught a 4" fish on a 4" soft jerkbait.
I’ve caught Golden’s in CA and ID but never caught any here in OR. Beautiful fish! I like catching the smaller versions as they tend to be more colorful
I hadn't thought about that, but you're right, they do seem to be more colorful. I'd like to catch goldens in Oregon. It's on my list! Thanks for watching.
So different looking. When I was younger (many centuries ago lol) I fished in a national park in West Virginia and the golden trout had a gold fish look I mean the same as a gold fish. Crazy.
Sounds like a good catch! But I don't think there are golden trout in West Virginia. I'm guessing you caught a palomino (aka golden rainbow): nativewatersoutfitters.com/blogs/news/palomino-vs-golden-rainbow Those are a different species compared to what I caught here.
@@TenkaraAddict thank you I did not know that. Very interesting. It only took 40 years for me to learn that. And it’s history. Love the channel. Now being in N Georgia I started using my tenkara and it works so much better with this small streams I fish.
A tip....while casting, draw your rod and line back in a very slow and smooth motion and gently lift the fly off the water surface without flicking/snapping your wrist to minimize the disruption your fly makes water surface as it’s lifted up. It can really spook the fish when you pull it back too quickly and makes a big disruption on the waters surface as it’s not a natural presentation.
Me neither. I don't understand brining the city with you to the outdoors. I was fishing in Yellowstone and had some people stop and walk out to watch me fish. Which is fine. Then they hooked up the Bluetooth speaker and started blaring music. I was like wtf? Why?
I was in Yellowstone and it was my first time fly fishing. I'd just started getting the hang of it, but was still trying to do super long casts like you see on TV shows. Problem was a group of German tourists came to watch and take pictures standing right in my back cast.
That section of the Uintas just 10 years ago was not as busy with people. The increase in usage and volume of people is just astronomical. Combine the beetle kill trees with hordes of people and unleashed dogs, it's just not a great place to recreate anymore. I've been wanting to go to that lake for a golden but I always find somewhere else more interesting.
I've been going to the Uintas for 20 years, and I'm sure there were people back then saying how crowded it was too. Still, it's not difficult to find solitude there.
Question please. In winter are you adding weight for the fly to sink deeper in rivers and creeks? I was told and read the fish in winter are closer to the bottom.
I find this video so sad! Every fish that you are catching is nothing more than water pollution in Idaho, None of them are native or belong in Utah. They all are contributing to the destruction of native fish.
I caught my first Golden Trout in this lake +30 years ago. Took my son's there 7 years ago and was there this past summer. The road in has absolutely been destroyed by side by sides. There is one other lake in the Uintah's that has Golden Trout in it. That's location is ~12 miles in and offers better fishing but very poor camping locations. You should try the Utah Cutthroat Challenge - 5 different species of cuts. PS: You need to learn to fly fish to reach further out in the pond. It would be more productive.
Yep, the road out there was absolutely atrocious. I've already completed the Utah Cutthroat Slam. And lol I'm not fly fishing here because I don't want to fly fish. Thanks for watching.
The reason people go into really nice places like this and crank up their music is because they are there to get drunk, period. I live in the foothills of Alberta, Canada. There are some places back here we don't even go anymore because of 4 wheelers and loud MUSIC!
I was totally going to follow you but you’re far too judgmental on how anyone else decides to enjoy the area. To each his own enjoy it bro and let others enjoy it also.
Beautiful video but it seems that you have missed a very important point. All of the fish species in the video were brought to Utah by well-meaning but ignorant people. They are not native to Utah and have destroyed the native cutthroat trout populations of this state, as well as all other states throughout the West. The official state fish of most Western states are the native cutthroat of their state but in each of them, cutthroat, the fish that are unique and indigenous to each state are extremely rare, largely due to the introduced species that you are celebrating in this video. If you want to catch Golden Trout, go hike in the Golden Trout Wilderness of California. Golden Trout anywhere else amounts to water pollution, along with Brown Trout and other non-natives that threaten the biodiversity of fish species, worldwide.
mmm...even though I agree with all you said, I think the presentation could be less aggressive and full of personal attacks on Tristan. Not a productive tactic to gain support for any cause. Tristan, you and I, are not responsible for the learning curve of those before us with our 20 20 hindsight. He's simply and Outdoors enthusiast who also stalks, catches and releases his target species...practicing great stewardship of wildlife and habitat. I read Fishing Through the Apocalypse...forget writer. Yet his Presentation was so powerful I couldn't put book down until I read cover to cover. Presentation is critical in lures and words. Eh?
I didn't "miss" it, I just didn't say it. I'm well aware that those fish aren't native to where I was fishing. I often catch non-native fish (brown trout, brook trout, rainbow trout, etc.), but I don't say in every video every time I catch them that they're not native. I've caught I think 10 or 11 or so cutthroat trout subspecies in their native ranges, and I've already caught golden trout in their native range: ua-cam.com/video/uS3EyvDCro0/v-deo.html
Love that lake !!!! Fish ON !
I would agree about streams being more interesting to fish than still waters.
Glad it's not only me!
Thanks Tristan for letting us share in your adventures. Most of us will never see the water you fish except in your videos. Much appreciated.
Ditto. Well said.
Thanks Ed, I appreciate that.

Luckily the mountains are big enough that it's not too difficult to get away from other people most of the time.
Noise polluters make noise on purpose

Tenkara is handy for small streams and complicated environment such as trees and bushes which will block from casting by flyfishing.

That was a great word about self awareness/responsibility. I guess they don’t teach the golden rule in schools anymore.
Some people just suck. That always has been the case and always will be. If people 100 years ago had had iPhones, I'm sure there would have been losers back then playing their music for everyone too.
When I’m at a state park and people are out pleasure boating with their music etc I live with it but in the high country I’d be pissed
I almost fell outta my chair leaning into cell before you netted that Golden!!!! Kudos, My Brother! Kudos! Thanks again for making Saturdays a better day!
Lol thanks Michael!
that 1st brookie was beautiful, good job, Hello Cassie and Bowser !!!
Sure was! Thanks Rob 👍
Another great video . Hope to be able to fish for trout one day in clearing water. thanks for making my Saturday great.
Thanks Stephen!

You just made me soooooooo home sick. Looks like you were around Lilly Lake. Those goldies are so cool. I miss catching them.
Love your videos! I bought my first Tenkara rod because of you. Cheers!
Beautiful fish and country, great fun! I can`t imagine why 2 people didn`t like this video...
Shrug. People are weird. Thanks for watching!
You should try for Some big Brown down here in Colorado! The Gunnison River is great and just gave me my PB which ill be posting soon!

Do you only do catch and release? I haven't watched all of your videos but I have never seen you keep one to eat.
Yeah I don't keep any
this is my dream place to cach fish like this
Super vidéo! CAN you suggest me a websitewhere i can have an idéa of différent tenkara ronds?

@@somerandomguy706 geeze, that sucks. It's like you became part of the tour, lol. That's what I felt like.
Yeah, basically people suck!
Those people are insecure in the outdoors. They should stay home.

How’s the road into the lake?
So, so bad.
Question please. In winter are you adding weight for the fly to sink deeper in rivers and creeks? I was told and read the fish in winter are closer to the bottom.
In a river, yes, I sometimes do that. In a creek that isn't very deep anyway, I don't need to.
Amen to the musci
great fishing🤙
Thanks 👍
To the headwaters for tenkara. Headwaters 源流 !!
Indeed!
If I caught a Golden Trout there, I would drown out the music with my celebration.
I find this video so sad! Every fish that you are catching is nothing more than water pollution in Idaho, None of them are native or belong in Utah. They all are contributing to the destruction of native fish.
I have plenty of videos catching native fish if you find yourself too heartbroken to watch the ones where I'm catching introduced species.
Lol I should have.
Maybe you can catch some Brookies in their native range. I would like to see how a Tenkara rod would handle a blueline in the southern Appalachians.
have you got a fixed line
Yes

What do you use for wet wading?
Lightweight hiking pants that dry quickly and my wading boots.
@@TenkaraAddict It looks like you do a lot of hiking in your boots. What are they and do you like them?
Do you use tapered lines? Or leveled line? Both?
I only use level line.
👌👌👌
👍 👍
Ikan kecil yang cantik...
Yep, they are!
Sad seeing that eastern brook trout have invaded golden trout lakes. I'm sure Dan Holland would agree.
Congratulations nice hunt . I'II wait on my UA-cam channel
Please cook at the end of the video too 😬
I agree that we fished men or women like quiet but remember we are not all the same
The reason people go into really nice places like this and crank up their music is because they are there to get drunk, period. I live in the foothills of Alberta, Canada. There are some places back here we don't even go anymore because of 4 wheelers and loud MUSIC!
I love stream fishing better as well, lake fishing is awsome but stream fishing is funner. I agree with the music. No one wants to hear it
Yeah, I just don't get the music thing. Have some self-awareness, you know?!
@@TenkaraAddict exactly
Agree.
I was totally going to follow you but you’re far too judgmental on how anyone else decides to enjoy the area. To each his own enjoy it bro and let others enjoy it also.
Darn right I'm judgmental when it affects other people. See ya.
exceot than when some d-bags play house-music off the beaten track, for all to hear...fuck that
I actually really enjoyed that part of the video. I feel the same and it was fun getting to hear you talk about the stupid music😂
