  • Self filming is difficult, and I think I almost forgot just how much work it was. This is the first time I’ve done just that in quite a while. The weather forecast was looking too good not to head north for a few days, and I had a serious craving for the serenity of camping in the hard woods of Potter County, PA. There’s something seriously real about the “feeling” you get up there, everyone and anyone who’s spent any time wandering around northern PA will tell you it’s a special place. We have a film coming out soon about the trip we did last year ( which I have taken way too long getting done, but that’s a story for another time).
    I know this was a long one, but I wanted to share the story of the second day and not catching any fish but still enjoying the time on the water in a beautiful place. From an editing standpoint, you either cut it out all together or condense it as much as you can. I did the latter, and I’m working on my skills as an editor at condensing hours of footage into an entertaining and cohesive film. I’m considering doing voice overs to move the story forward better in future videos, but I don’t know. We’ll see. Okay that’s all. If you’re still reading this, I appreciate you.
    Thanks for watching!
    Thanks for your support.
    Tight Lines.

    Isn’t it great how one little Brookie can erase a whole day of frustration?

    Great video. I can still do a little bit of this kind of fishing, but not like I used to. If I can't actually do it anymore, at least I can watch you do it. Nothing wrong with your editing. GREAT music that I can agree with. I'm looking forward to the longer film. I still wet a fly once in a while over in the Allegheny drainage. I've watched everyone of your videos all the way back.

    Glad you're back at it making vids in Pa Caleb!! Dig the camper! I live in Tioga County across the line from Potter and I find myself fishing the areas you were in often. Last year it turned hot early in June and baked us all summer with no rain. I feel the fish took a big hit last summer pending on the creek. It may be why you were having to work for them so hard. Creeks I smacked them in 2 years ago are now sparse after last summer.

    • @alleghenynative
      @alleghenynative  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for the support buddy! And yes we agree the summer was definitely a hard one on the trout I believe. Let’s hope we have a better one this year

    Awesome Video Guys!! I believe we were in Tionesta the same time you were in potter county. It was tough fishing but once we found them, they were biting hard. Can't wait for the Native Fly box to arrive and catch some fish.

    I attended penn state. I know Potter county well. I now live out west. I so miss the small streams and especially the smells of the eastern woodlands. Nothing like the smells of the woods after an autumn rain. We don't get that here.

    The camera is Caleb's magic wand, find myself entranced in his filmography. Nate's cool cuz that's my name too, and I think I like Joel better now that someone knocked a tooth loose. JK
    I still don't like him😂
    Can't wait for the next vid. Hope the 3 of you can fish together sometime soon.

    It may be the water temp that is keeping the fish up stream verses down stream

  • @blackflycreations

    Awesome Caleb! Has the Vw Westy been traded for a 4wheel pop-up? I love Westfalias but they are a labor of love, and the truck is much more capable and reliable, but both are cool. Excellent film work my friend, I hope one day I can portray a video even half as good as yours. Thank you for sharing, and as you said "the woods can be just as enjoyable as a tight line".. Take care to all the Allegheny crew!

    On the second half of the video when you were driving down the mountain switchbacks you were like 10 minutes from my camp! Lol We're just a few miles up the road after the intersection. Maybe we'll cross paths some day and ill have you guys over for some cold ones around the fire. 😂 Keep up the great work and tight lines.

    I’m heading to Potter county in Hammersley wild area mid October. Any suggestions on flies.

    • @alleghenynative
      @alleghenynative  11 місяців тому

      Really any nymph should work. Lively legz double troubles, depending on weather caddis should be coming off, small streamers will definitely bring fish to the net as well

    • @alleghenynative
      @alleghenynative  11 місяців тому

      Just be careful as well and look out for those reds, for browns and brookies will be spawning. Tight lines👍🤘👊
