Thanks Dan great video! My eleven year old son and I are learning and don't catch many at this river, but it's nearby and we were there for the clear cool weather a couple weeks ago. I hooked a nice cutt and told my son, "Fish on!!"
That Cutty really dogged you, Dan! What a strong fish! It wasn't surprising that when I got to see it, it had a big long tail for maximum leverage, sleek and strong, made you put in some work to get a visit with him!
Someday, try the coeur d'alene river! Awesome country, logging, and mining history. Wonderful people, fishing and scenery. Then, head up over thompson pass, check out the Montana side, too!
FFD, first and foremost, thank you for not telling your audience where in our lovely state you're killin' it fishing for those beauties. Second, why light tippet with a streamer? As I've shared with you before, I'm trying streamers more and I tie a 3 - 5' piece of #10 mono or fluorocarbon onto a sink tip with my 6wt; I'll downshift to #8 if the water is slower or clearer. My assumption is that if a fish is aggressive enough to eat a big fly that they're not going to be leader shy - but maybe I"m missing fish with my logic? Anyway, another fun video to start my day. Taking a friend out mid-day today to a nearby hole just to wet a line for an hour or so. ☮
Thanks Al! I found on this day, the fish were being a bit leader shy...they weren't attacking the streamer like normal, but a slow eat. I had to leader down to get them to bite (and it worked!). I'm always changing things up which seems to work well for me. Cheers!
Fisherman usually are some of the nicest and helpful community.. but some people around here acting like it’s their livelihood. I don’t get this mentality but to each their own.
Great video once again Dan. If you are where I think you are I probably drove by you looking for a good spot of my own. Thank you for all the great videos and representing NW fly fishing so well!
Man I wish I could catch any fish right now. I have been skunked 8 times in a row, but u think that's because I haven't been able to really go to any half decent waters. Quick tip, if you ever want to fish the Snohomish river when the pinks aren't running... don't. I can't wait to try fishing some of those panhandle rivers in Idaho nextime I'm up there, lots of cuttys I hear.
@@FlyFishDan Yeah I hope I can get something. I might be going up to Yellowstone area next summer, so I at least have that to look forward to. And no problem on the tip 😂
I feel your pain. I had a terrible weekend . I just broke my new 5wt fly rod. I just bought it from Jackson fly company. Fortunately they are fixing it as we speak. Had a monster brown but it broke my line. I was using my other pole. But, it’s nice to get out and enjoy the day.
Pozdrav Martine - cijenim sve pozitivne i ljubazne komentare - hvala ti! Također - hvala vam što ste odvojili vrijeme da pogledate sve moje videozapise i što ste dio mog kanala - cijenim vas!
@@FlyFishDan I'm sorry sir,that i write in my language(I'm from the Czech Republic)my english Is terriable. A translator next time so that we understand each other better.👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗 Fish on 😍😍😍🤠🤠🤠👏👏👏
Do you have any recommendations of a trout stream that you can wade in because we are looking to go up to Idaho and Wyoming fly fishing for are next trip
Did you get yourself another Hellbender net? If so, what size did you get and/or recommend? I primarily wade fish. Same area as you so the same size fish as well. I’m really tempted to splurge on a nice net for my next fly fishing purchase 🤔
Think you're willing to send an email to an Idahoan that does exclusively catch and release? I'm usually a sturgeon fisherman, or ponds. But I love these kinds of waters, and just don't have knowledge right now. Again, will do pure catch and release
Great video! What is that reel that you can slap retrieve? I love doing that but most reels dont do it well. My favorites are the older Ross Animas that was discontinued.
Hello, nice water, ? I fish in different states and I have to get fishing Permits to fishing for trout, and some states have to buy trout stamps.. I have Tn., N.C., N.J. Pa. Va., I have year around permits in some states.. $$$$ it adds up but I don't care I've been trout fishing since I've been a kid, I also belong to trout unlimted.. life member
Theres already far too many people on these rivers in north idaho. Yeah, the St. Joe and C'dA rivers have pavement alongside them and easy access. Clearwater is bum filled up with people too, major of it is washington state folks. I live here but have up fishing mostly.
Why does it matter what state someone is from? If you're that concerned, why reveal specific locations in your comments? Fishing is for everyone, regardless of where they come from. The fisheries aren't owned by the locals; they belong to everyone.

WOW. this makes me beyond excited for a journey up there this weekend with the pup! Thanks for sharing, Dan!
Good luck on your trip! Cheers!

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing that :))

Such a good day for sure...now tomorrow's video...that's a different story! Lol
Someday, try the coeur d'alene river! Awesome country, logging, and mining history. Wonderful people, fishing and scenery. Then, head up over thompson pass, check out the Montana side, too!
Yes, that area is awesome!
That is one of my favorite places on the planet! Thanks for not blabbing where it is... HaHa!
You bet!
What a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the sound of the birds and catching some nice fish really enjoyed it thanks for sharing dan 👌🤜🤛
My pleasure!

I agree. Some of my favorite places have been absolutely ruined because of social media. Some people just don't get it...
Fisherman usually are some of the nicest and helpful community.. but some people around here acting like it’s their livelihood. I don’t get this mentality but to each their own.
Thanks for sharing. Love catching those Westslope cutthroat.
Me too!
Idaho has the best rivers 🎣 thanks for the great video!
Thanks!
Great video once again Dan. If you are where I think you are I probably drove by you looking for a good spot of my own. Thank you for all the great videos and representing NW fly fishing so well!
Thank you! I appreciate that :))
I nickname my Big Cutty’s “Walter”. That definitely looked like a Walter! And on my old home river. Such a great stretch
Love it!!
From "On Golden Pond" movie from the early eighties.
I always forget to wait an extra second on the dry fly takes on those Westslopes
The Boise is a really nice river and runs for miles.
I would love to go to that little spot just to swim in that beautiful water
Pretty amazing for sure

I've had runs like that myself in the past - you'll get into something soon I bet! Thanks for the tip!

I'm going to Idaho next summer and will try all the waters I can.
You are going to have a great trip!
Teda pane opět parádní video, nádherná řeka, překrásné ryby.👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗👏👏👏 Nice work and Fish on,jestli to teda píšu dobře.🤠🤠🤠

Did you bring your camper over there? That looks like awesome fishing water!
Yes I did! Loved having the cozy camper with us on this trip :))
I noticed a nice rod you are useing well done
Thanks 👍
Beautiful water and fish D! Fun to watch. I bet it was even more fun to be doing the fishing! 😁
Most definitely!
Do you have any recommendations of a trout stream that you can wade in because we are looking to go up to Idaho and Wyoming fly fishing for are next trip
Send me a PM on my email - Cheers!
10-4

I did yes! I have the Upstream with short handle flame burst. The perfect size net for almost all trout.
great video quality
New follower. What reel are you using? I totally dig how you just hit it to reel in your slack!
Thanks Ethan - welcome to my channel. That is my OG Orvis Battenkill large arbor reel. Love that thing!
Know the area well.. Thank you for not mentioning the water you are fishing. I would really hate to see UA-cam group invade the area.
That's why it will be forever unnamed - the only people that will recognize the area are the people that have been there before. Cheers!
I tend to go way up where the name changes, and further. Family history. Nice to get back there after 50+ years now and again.

Thank you! That's my old school Orvis Battenkill large arbor fly reel.
How do you tell a good fish from a bad fish? Nice video!
They are all good fish in my book :)) Thank you!
Hello, nice water, ? I fish in different states and I have to get fishing Permits to fishing for trout, and some states have to buy trout stamps.. I have Tn., N.C., N.J. Pa.

Thanks for taking the time to watch Dale, I appreciate it!
What part of Idaho is this? without naming river.
Hello Robert - I fish primarily in the northern Idaho panhandle.
@@FlyFishDan I know this area , and im NOT saying !
So what roadside river in Idaho were you guys fishing?
If you’re looking for another spot, my most recent video might help ya! 🎣
😂
The sad thing is more and more of the streams are becoming catch and release 😢
What river is this?
What river is this on?? I live in the northwest
Join the FFD club - it comes with some perks. Cheers and FISH-ON!
Theres already far too many people on these rivers in north idaho. Yeah, the St. Joe and C'dA rivers have pavement alongside them and easy access. Clearwater is bum filled up with people too, major of it is washington state folks. I live here but have up fishing mostly.

Well said dan....there always going to be local ass bags that think they own the river.
Is this Mores Creek?
What river is this
17?? C’mon man.
OMG I didn't see you there with your tape measure! Lol
😭😪😓
Don't be sad...no cry
Yeah nice video but I also noticed you didn't tell anyone where you were at fishing
Thank you! I rarely name the fisheries - it's more about inspiring others to discover new places and get out there and fish. Cheers!
😂
