There’s two type of fishing poles. Fly fishing rods that don’t have hand cracked reels and spinning reels which are your conventional reels that you crank with your hand to spin the line on the spool. Fly fishing is much harder as you don’t have that set up and instead you have to pull line out manually and cast it. You don’t use baits or lures that make sound or smell to attract fish. You don’t rely on reeling in your life and making it mimic a fish to trigger predator instinct. You literally tie a fly using string and beads to a hook and throw it on top of the water and bunch of times. It’s an art form in which you mimic nature of a big landing on the surface of the water. You are fishing in rivers that are usually clear so you can see the fish sometimes and adjust to make sure it bites. All the humour is about a guy who is a regular fisherman who is used to playing it in easy with lures he could just cast and reel in, or drive his boat while it is on the water to catch fish. He has no patience for these guys who make their own ‘ flies’ and stand in the water because you cannot cast far as a fly fisherman (you have to manually pull the line out). He also cheats by using a Rapala lure when fly fishermen don’t use lures at all. (Rapala is a huge fishing equipment company known for making expensive lures that are designed to catch fish in many conditions )
I’ve taught a few of my buddies how to fly fish throughout the years and it is shockingly similar. Also, A River Runs Through It, is a damn good movie.
@@izaakmoran8181makes sense for steelhead and bigger fish you want to let run a little and pull some line out but for a stream theyre in makes no sense most of the time youre just stripping it back pulling the fish to you.
Thank God for your videos man I see all this bullshit on UA-cam that literally makes me question The future of mankind and then I see your videos that brings back a little hope.
I tie flies and I can confirm all the fly names he dropped are real flys. I gave my drama teacher a Green Butt Skunk for Christmas one year and he loved it.
That was funny. I hate trolling. A bunch of my friends like trolling for kokanee and it drives me nuts being stuck on a boat driving in circles. I'd rather have my fly rod and hike a mile into a box canyon by myself 😂
I wish I had this video yesterday when I was surrounded by fly fisherman and I was the only one with a rod. I was also the only one that was caching brown and rainbow. 🤣🤣 I like calling the fly fisherman “colorguard!”
Dude, Charlie, you're freaking hilarious! The more I watch your videos the more you make me laugh soo hard!! Never seize to amaze me with your acting. It's really a special kind of acting that only you can deliver. I appreciate your humor!!
Showed this to my dad, who’s fly fished for 40 years, and he spit out his drink before not being able to breathe normally for about 15 minutes bc of laughing. That running joke that just keeps on giving is the best.
I grew up in Montana fly fishing in and around Yellowstone every day (when it was warm). I grew up, moved away, and got a job that doesn't give me enough time to sleep let alone fish. "Never again would I see so much of the wilderness." is a line that I never knew would define my life.
@T-Bone Stone NOT a big ginger man fan but I'll take the other BIGUN with the ponytail, for sure... IF I was younger! I wudda change that dudes religion to Chrissyism! Don't laugh, I was young and cute at one time, I used to be calling the boys cry they have so much fun... they cried her very hard. It was like a religious experience they had a fucking epiphany. Teehee! #Taino #Mohawk #NYGenXChick
"I'mma need another beer." Same fishing etiquette in the south. If you're not funny, I haven't had enough to drink, and need to be a better buddy. Sometimes you have to take one for the team.
I fucking died when y’all were talking about what flies to use. And then I had the urge to start WW3 when you put a hard bait on and tipped a fly with a wax worm.
I understand none of these jokes. I just really enjoy the vibe.

"I told you, you gotta take me to dinner first." 🤣
I laughed too hard at him sayin that! Now I wanna go fishin just to be able to say “I told you, you gotta take me to dinner first”
I don’t get it lol

"It's not a bobber" 😂 😂
It's a bobber
😂 bubble, bobber same thing
Single handedly the funniest thing about fly fishing 😂
“ is that bait or a art project” 😂😂😂😂😂its both
As a fly fisherman, this is extremely accurate😂
Great video Charlie! Keep er movin
Hey man, must really love disappointment, been a rough season for us. Looking like 6th ain’t it?

@@SEMPERFIFLIP Manchester United are down bad this year

A river runs through it, one of my favorite movies, I'm not a fly fisher
Bro me too
Here here!
I’m from Missoula. The movie actually gives a good vibe of our town
You gotta try it bro
I’ve taught a few of my buddies how to fly fish throughout the years and it is shockingly similar. Also, A River Runs Through It, is a damn good movie.
As hes holding a 1500$ orvis😂 love it
I can’t for the life of me figure out how a fly reel can be so expensive
@@newkidontheblockismwhen half the time they only pull their line instead of using the reel to catch the fish. Makes no sense to me🤷🏻♂️

Would love an extended version of this.
Let’s just make a whole series “Midwestern Charlie” and have him hanging out with various friends having conversations like these.
10/10 would watch
Pt 2! Better yet, series!
Hell, would love a behind the scenes / bloopers version of this. What always gets me is all the people that go along for the ride on his skits 🤣
One of the best movies ever made.
You definitely know you’ve come of age because that movie becomes wonderfully relevant.
Was that the one with Brad Pitt? 😂
Dude. I’m a fly fishing guide and this is FANTASTIC! There’s a reason you’re my favorite.
"I'm gonna need another beer"..... 🤣
A River Runs Through It does NOT suck and I'll drown in my waders on this hill.
It is a bobber.
‘Let’s go trolling instead’ 😂
Just trolling🧌
That was funny. I hate trolling. A bunch of my friends like trolling for kokanee and it drives me nuts being stuck on a boat driving in circles. I'd rather have my fly rod and hike a mile into a box canyon by myself 😂
@@joeg5414 The worst part is not knowing how deep the lure is. Youd better get a nice book or something cause trolling is boring
Especially when you get snagged and you have to get the snag out but you have like 7 other rods😑
Trolling is fun AF what U meam
"I think he likes me" 😂
I like your duct tape fishing vest. Very ergonomic
For sure
As a fly fisher in Wisconsin, I was laughing my head off this whole video!
🤣
@@Starman1014 ok im not a fly fisher but if it goes under the water when a fish hits it, how is it not like a bobber
@@Starman1014 “Its like a bobber. No. Kinda. Yeah it’s a bobber.” Lol
A-HA I TOLD YOU IT'S LIKE A BOBBER DAD!!!
Thanks I'm now sending this to my Dad as proof it's like a damn bobber!
The ol Sex Dungeon and Meat Whistle lol
What about the skin flute?
The sex dungeon is an amazing streamer pattern tho for real
@@Art3m1s_98if sculpin live in the body of water your fishing. Doesn’t do shit where I live…
@@Odhege8262 Yeah thats kinda how a imitation fly works.
Sometimes I try really hard not to chuckle at these videos of yours. I'm helpless on this one, hearty laugh nearly right away. Thanks brother
This is the most accurate thing I've ever seen about fly fishermen
A River Runs Through It had me crying as a kid in the theaters, such a good movie!
I wish I had this video yesterday when I was surrounded by fly fisherman and I was the only one with a rod. I was also the only one that was caching brown and rainbow. 🤣🤣
I like calling the fly fisherman “colorguard!”
"okay it's like a bobber" ..... Fair enough
Dude, Charlie, you're freaking hilarious! The more I watch your videos the more you make me laugh soo hard!! Never seize to amaze me with your acting. It's really a special kind of acting that only you can deliver. I appreciate your humor!!
“Alright I’m bored can we go trolling?”🤣
The funniest part the bail joke was "get it, 'cause there's no bail on your POLE"
Showed this to my dad, who’s fly fished for 40 years, and he spit out his drink before not being able to breathe normally for about 15 minutes bc of laughing.
That running joke that just keeps on giving is the best.
A river runs through it is literally top 10.
The strike indicator part is hilarious 😂🤣

As an angler in Iowa, I laugh the hardest at ur fishing videos. You’ve got a fan for life buddy.
There’s so much going on in this video visually and verbally I had to watch it several a and laughing every time!! 👏🏻🤣👏🏻🤣
As someone who knows nothing about fly fishing, I can confirm that this video is relatable. These guys are the real deal 💯
"Do they have perch in this river."
That hit me right in the Mitten 😂
This is the first time I've seen my hometown Missoula mentioned in a UA-cam Short.
Love Missoula 🇺🇸♥️ the whole western edge of Montana is Amazing. Best regards from eastern Oregon
✌🏼😎
@@captainawesome4983 I went to college at u of m. Used to love Missoula, now it's almost unbearable there :(
@@Squatnation Why what happened?
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 it's not unbearable he's just being overly dramatic about the urbanization
@@PoliceBlot It’s a city with 75k people how bad can it be?
The river runs through it part got me
I’m a fly fisher and I find this absolutely hilarious, the flies do have really odd names as well lol
As a member of the fly fishing community I find this stuff pretty funny
DUDE! hilarious! A+ editing too!!!!
This short kicks so much ass in such a short amount of time, this is great!
"why do fly fishers don't want to be arrested?"
-"because nobody wants to get arrested?"
absolutely gold
I don't know shit about fishes yet this is ridiculously funny. A true talent of comedy you have there, good sir
I’m literally just getting into fly fishing an pretty much every joke this guy said was something I was thinking as I’ve been starting out 🤣
Irk where you found those fellas but they come off as so genuine even if they’re being told what to say or whatever
Okay I literally loved this one. Thanks for the laughs
🤣 loved how he duct taped everything on his waders!
Was looking for this comment LOL Now I don't have to type it, but I did waist hell of a lot more time typing this damn 🤔
Bro the fly comment and the look at the camera made me die, everyone’s got a friend from high school that prides themselves on there custom made flys
Fly fisherman here. Extremely accurate
This is So funny. The best part is this all started fishing side by side joking amongst each-other. Great vid boys
Oh god the way you say Rapala( Rap-A-La is the right way!) makes my brain hurt
As somebody who fly fishes, this hits far too close to home.🤣👍
Love the dudes first and most logical answer. “Because no one likes to get arrested.” 😅😂
The going trolling joke and the end is top tier humor😂
A river runs through it! OMG! 🤣🤣🤣
I need that dude’s wish trucker hat with the filigree.
You have perfected this craft. I'm going to go spend time alone in the woods dealing with my self doubt now.
Is that a rapala??!! 🤣🤣🤣
I don’t fly fish please explain
@@yellcountytanks3235 he’s using a lure meant to be thrown on a regular rod on a fly fishing rod, where you only use fly lures
@@Umipunpun oh 😂 thanks
This is HILARIOUSLY accurate. 😂
That is a tough looking group of friends.

I need a another beer got me dying
“Can we go trolling” accurate, let the fish to the work 😂
“I’m gonna need another beer” is the most accurate for everyone haha
I’m ain’t no fly fisher, just a standard angler but why does this touch my soul
Yeah I feel a little out of the loop. The only thing that made sense was when he put the waxworm on there 😭
Great stuff and nice job on the Orvis Podcast. I want to see the psycodelic stranger fly.
Red n white bobbers gives me deja-vibes
A river runs through it is awesome
This is the greatest thing I’ve ever watched
Charlie you've been trolling all day 😂
Love the duct taped vest!
“Alright I’m bored let’s go trolling”

And then I had the urge to start WW3 when you put a hard bait on and tipped a fly with a wax worm.
Bait or art project 😂
Ugh... this hits home. I have a new fly pole I've never used and have no idea how to use it.
This had me in tears 😂! Especially because my husband is a fly fishing guide 😂
As someone who has only gone fly fishing once in 18 years, this is extremely accurate.
Freakin hilarious! Thanks for the good laugh! 😂👍👍👌
Gotta add, “powerbait would do the trick here”
Woah what did he call the “RAP-uh-la”??
That trolling line is perfect
As a fly fisherman. . This is the most funny thing ever especially when he put the Rapala on lmao
I love the ductape vest
The river runs through it is my dads all time favorite movie
"guys this movie sucks" lmao
I'm with Charlie. Y'all ready to troll yet 😂
A River Runs Through It is my favorite! Born and raised in Missoula
Adams a bonafide actor now!
“I am bored lets go trolling” me every sunday
River runs through is one of my favorite brad pit movies
Have a Great Birthday Charlie! 💯
