In case you want to hear more about the trip and how we planned everything, we released a full podcast episode recapping the trip. Check it out on our podcast channel ua-cam.com/video/rk5V3ZkNW6k/v-deo.html
AWESOME- Like you guys, I have a trip to a rarely traveled location with lots of data and little detail outside of gov reports for bulls in 2 weeks! Any detail on planning and what worked best is highly appreciated!
I live 2 hrs away from That river one of the best for bullies! Fish it quite often!
Off topic but one word you guys should follow. taimen
Great channel!!!! Hi from NC🙋🏻♀️♥️ My son was an avid fisherman and was in the BassMasters Pro Tournament years back. He’s been gone for 7 yrs now and watching you guys fish reminds me of him 😞 God bless you all! 🙏🏻❤️
This is everything. The reason bull trout, and all native and wild fish are so thrilling to chase after doesn’t really have anything to do with the things you think it will (big fish, aggressive fish, plentiful fish etc etc) it’s thrilling because they are wild and free, and in your own pursuit of them you have no choice but to become wild and free yourself. Hope you get to do a lot of more of this kind of thing in your lives. It’s what being alive is all about.
You guys nailed it. Thanks for everything you do to help educate people on our native fish! Can't wait to link up again soon.
videos like this are harmful to the few remaining wild places no cap. you are egotistical fish pimps, and your actions do not align with the your claimed values.
@@bike4fish241 I think the truth is that ALL anglers (and I'm assuming that your screen name indicates that you're an angler) are harmful to fisheries, period. The impact of recreational fishing, catch and release or otherwise, can't be over stated. If you think that your personal exploitation of wild resources excludes you from that conversation simply because you don't have a youtube channel then you're deluding yourself. For better or worse (and we're all trying to figure out the answer to that question) anglers have become a leading voice in the conservation of cold water species, particularly salmonids. Videos that excite and educate people, anglers or otherwise, on the value of native species and wild ecosystems are essential to the survival of these species. Cuz guess what, theres a lot of serious issues affecting the long term survival of these creatures, and "fish pimps" are a relatively small piece of that puzzle. Climate and habitat issues will come for our wild places at a slow and relentless pace, whether they're kept "secret" or not, so when that day comes you better hope there's a bunch of dudes with fly rods holding the line. Someones gotta do it. All that said, you're right to raise concerns. These are conversations we all need to be having, especially when it comes to threatened species. Will consumptive users of our natural resources be the ones to ultimately save them? Or will we just be standing there, torturing the last wild fish at the end of a line as the world burns around us? The future isn't set in stone, but it's certainly something thats on my mind daily.
@@TightLoops i appreciate your well worded reply. as for you assumitions about me, i have a LONG history in actual habitat restoration for wild fisheries, working with non profits and the US government. I was an avid fly fisherman for many years, and I have quitely fished most of the fisheries in the northwest USA. but, eventually I came to the realization that I was concerned enough with the CURRENT health of our wild fisheries that I have personally given up my PASSION of catching wild fish in wild places. As a former north Idaho resident, who has been active in local TU as well as with IDFAG, i can say without a doubt the rules "protecting" bull trout in idaho are a complete joke, as is there managment of wild steelhead. its 100 percent ok to go to the headwaters of nearly ANY river in the region in september, find schools of bull trout stuck in low water, and throw barbed and baited trebble hooks at them ALL DAY LONG, taking every fish out of the water for pictures. 100 percent legal.... ponder that. Carp fishing is pretty dope though. Muskies and pike too. they should make some videos that highlight ethical fisheries. As far as my name, i organized a annual cycling event along a local river to raise funds to go directly towards habitat restoration efforts on that river. PS that fish is in spawning colors, and is still SLIGHTLY prespawn but probably alrdy in the pool it plans to spawn in. spawn is early sep-early novemeber, with an outmigration when the early winter rains raise the water level.
@@TightLoops also, it looks like the deleted my first comment. very telling???
Im still convinced that this is the best current fly fishing channel out there, the filming and effort that goes into portraying a story is next level. These are amazing places and amazing films I one day hope to replicate.
100 percent agree
Drewlocknfishy, he does good stuf
I might recommend Jon B's long-form stuff too. His Australia, Devil's River, Louisiana, Amazon, and Sudan documentaries/series are fantastic--even if you don't like all the Googan content
Jensenflyfishing is great.
From an old guy - You guys are the most honest, refreshing fly fishing going. Hats off to you.
We appreciate you Tim! Thanks for the kind words. Tight Lines!
What I love about your videos is that like you don’t edit out the skunked days. Like it makes me feel so much better on the days that I don’t catch fish, or have to change plans. Also, love the science and history behind this, because really that’s a lot of what fly fishing is about, science and knowledge that gets you on the fish and makes you appreciate them even more. Love this channel!
Exactly! You nailed it. Learning about these wild places and the history of these native fish makes the entire experience so much more fulfilling.
This video is 🔥 Absolutely love all the history lessons and the fishing was fun to watch!!👏
I am overwhelmed with emotion watching this. I haven’t felt this emotional about fishing in a while. Always awesome stuff!
FINALLY, I have been waiting for a wildfly video for so long. Never disappoints, as always! It really bothers me how underrated your channel is. These are by far the best quality fly fishing videos on youtube!
Means a lot to hear that! Thanks for always showing up to support 🙌🏻
I’ve watched a few of your films and they’ve all been entertaining and beautiful to watch. I just subscribed now, hopefully will enable you to do more. Good luck!
I so appreciate that you show the tangles and challenges that even the best fishermen have to deal with on an occasion. That is part of this deal. Keep on keepin it real.
My roommate and I stayed up and waited for this to come out so we could watch it. So stoked after watching it. What a great video!!! Seriously so good and inspires me to go out and adventure and seek out such incredible places and fish.
Legends! Thanks for the nice words. Go get after it!
Epic! Totally felt the excitement when Brian hooked into that Bully!
Love these remote trips. The native fish, tough country, and grind make it incredible to watch!
That’s what it’s all about. The moments leading up to that bull, all the hardships, struggle. Made it all the better at the end.
That bull was too much of a beast for that Osprey.! Epic story.
Asking locals about bull trout is like asking a miner where he finds his gold 😂
ive watched every video of yours for a few years now, and have followed bryant for a long time as well. this is the first time ive gotten genuine goosebumps from one of the videos, congrats on a badass fish bryant!!
Great job. I think the part at 31:00 with the suspenseful music timed perfectly, and then to hear Scottie's voice so pumped for his buddy is possibly your best work ever. It's like we all felt the sense of relief and redemption. Epic stuff. Thanks for taking us along.
What is that song called?
I also want to know what the name of this song, so good!
At 70 years old and not able to wade the rivers and climb the banks anymore. All fly fishing gear as of last year handed down to the kids. But, I have fished almost every corner and center in Idaho. Traveled the world and have to say , Idaho might just be the greatest gem of them all. But you have to get there first , which makes it even better. Great job guys and love your fishing adventures.
Awesome guys...GREAT TUNES TOO !!!
Good work exposing another river system
Your videos are amazing. I’ve been out a lot and my catches are on the increase because of you guys.
What a fantastic story and video!! Way to go brpatt for the great catch! I think the passion you all carried made this story happened. Awesome!
Excellent film!
What you guys could have done with a bunch of spinners and a carton of night-crawlers......You need to have a cook along.....I volunteer. My dad taught me to trout fish on the Madison. We would go every year late August.....Our last trip was in 2015....with my two boys....and I noticed dad was exhibiting signs of memory issues. Today, I said goodbye to him, he is in hospice and most likely won't last the night.....I know he is on his way to fish waist deep at the back end of long mossbanks for big fall run browns....thanks Dad for instilling in me a love of the natural world, how to fish and hunt, and respect nature. I will miss you.
This is gonna be sickkkk
Just an all around beautiful video. Beautiful country, beautiful editing, beautiful fish. This is the first video I've seen from you, but I will continue watching because of it.
Beautiful!!!! Thank you!
Another amazing video thank you for sharing this experience that’s what Fly fishing is all about. To be present!!
Keep it going Wild Fly
I must’ve watched this at least 40 times maybe more just can’t get enough of it
You may not have caught that many bull trout but I loved it !
Amazing video, the best! The serenity of these pristine rare waters is finite, as in won’t last. On a rare opportunity go there, do not seek it repeatedly nor draw attention to its value. Be a blessed witness of natures beauty, preserve, don’t disturb! 😆
Fantastic...Livin' the life!
Just another great freaking video. It's always awesome seeing Backwater Bryant too.
SO Good... great production, storytelling, cinematography. Well done guys!
I caught a bull trout when I was 10 in Alberta Canada back in 2005. It was amazing, Ill never forget the spot we caught them.
Beautiful fish, scenery and memories. Amazing visuals, editing and footage. Well done boys.
Guys this is by far the Best fly fishing video I have ever watched here on UA-cam. Thanks for sharing this wonderful fishing experience with everybody here on UA-cam. I didn’t even know about the existence of bull trouts before and the place where you went to catch these fish was really breathtaking! Thanks again and hope to catch up with you one day
I watched this last night on my 65"TV and got to say this is by far one of your best videos of fly fishing I have ever seen. The slow motion takes on those cutty's was spectacular and the scenery as well. IF you guys ever come to PA would love to guide you on some of our waters. Keep up the great work.
Great vid. Big up from the U.K.
How you don’t already have over 100k subscribers blows my mind. Incredible work behind the camera and especially telling the story of bull trout. I’m always pumped for my next fishing trip after watching your videos!
Brilliant video, gents!
Wow , great adventure video! That Bully had some nasty claw marks. Catch
'M up...🤘
Your story telling is superb!
That is a special place that offers so much more than just the bull trout, like you perfectly showed. Kudos guys. This hits deep. I love how you actually show the highs and lows of the trip, what a story!
WOW! Great Effort Gang!
These guys are awesome. Also, that one dude is Kenny Powers and you can't convince me otherwise
Just when you think it can’t get any better, boom, it does. Raising the bar every video. Brian’s a great add to the team, a natural fit.
This is great content. I still cant grapple why the sportsman network or outdoor tv dose not air stuff like this when it comes to fishing. Most of their stuff is old and dated when it comes to any kind of fishing. They need to bring in content creators like you guys. I have no issues with you guys keeping the locations secret. The content is great.
Your videos are awesome, its like your there, you can smell the food cooking, feel the tension, the weather etc. Awesome work.
This is the best story you guys have pieced together thus far. Hands down the BEST! Well done Scotty, hope to run into you sometime in the SE. Cheers!
Thanks so much brother!
This was fantastic! Absolutely love the channel, the pod, and all the good stories that come along with it. I wish I purchased some merch before I left the States. Let me know if y'all can ship to Japan!
By far the best video on here man awesome
talon marks and all. amazing.
You guys deserve millions of subscribers. Such high-quality content and I appreciate the effort into the videos. It's inspiring
SOME of those cutts have ALL the markings of the Fine-spotted Cutt from Eastern Idaho, other sub-species are also apparent!! Nice video in gorgeous waters!! Good job!!
Watching this at my break at work, such a getaway. Thank you so much!!!
Amazing film.
Amazing video as always guys. Good job showing off the conservation qualities that are so critical for our future as anglers.
Wow, so much effort went into this video. The editing, traveling, fishing...way to go! Thanks for sharing.
Another dose of quality stuff guys! Your mix of the fun of being outdoors, the challenges, difficulties, planning, setbacks, weather, cooking, friendship, the fun of fishing ... and informing and educating. It's not just good fun to watch but it's important information you're putting out. Good up the great, great work and "keep gettin' after it!".
This is so epic man! Such an inspiration. Capturing and captivating the whole time as always Scottie.
Great job! This is Sundance Film Festival material! Music - there but no too there. Climax just right. Ups. Downs. Fantastic!
First time seeing these guys. Good fishing video. Really good
That was amazing. Cinematography. Fishing. Pod cast. All of it. Wow.
Dude, those Osprey claw scars on that Bull Trout were crazy!
Excellent job again !!!
The ending gave me chills. This video is awesome.
Never wanted to like a video more. Well done 🎉
This is world class story telling and video production. Every time I think it can’t get any better you guys exceed all expectations. Great job Scotty!!!! 👍🏼
One of your best man! Had to watch it on my full size TV last night! Your story development is top notch man!
I really love to watch your video.... I was wondering that you guys are in kashmir.... Keep fishing 🎣..... Save the fish save the nature... Tjis my slogan.... Bless u guys...
Unbelievably beautiful country! Thanks for taking us on this trip. Bull trout or not the trip was well worth it! Congrats on the nice bully at the end!
I've been binging the podcast the last couple days while backpacking some bluelines and was really looking forward to this one. Y'all didn't disappoint. Nice work!
Being my home waters I really appreciate you guys keeping the name of these rivers and tribs out of your podcast and video. The popularity in this area has spiked ridiculously in the last 8 years and it is a clear physical difference. The bull trout are no longer a secret there but aren’t always the easiest to catch. After watching your video and hearing the pod, the one important tip for this waterway (for bulls) is your retrieve angle. Swing doesn’t do a whole lot here. Idk why, but it’s not too productive. But once again, thanks for doing it right and putting the work in and not bringing the world with ya haha tight lines fellas
Bull trout are the Provincial fish of my province, Alberta, and I've wanted to catch one desperately since I started fly fishing 2 years ago. They've become my obsession, and a friend that started recently who I taught the ways of chucking the meat to (to our dry fly friends dismay) recently caught beautiful one right in front of me. Thank you for putting them on such a prominent platform to help with awareness, hopefully more people learn, and start to care about that beautiful, native fish species.
I love following you guys, so much fun, and props to your continued evolution of content creation. The videos/story get better and better.
I'm new to the idea of fly fishing, but now I'm hooked. This was the most incredible video production I've ever seen outside of Hollywood (and better than most that are done on the inside). I can only imagine the amount of work that went into planning, shooting and editing, and the end result was fantastic! Keep up the good work!
Nice video guys great video 👍
Man I can’t believe you and the blue line guys have only known each other for such a short time. You have great chemistry, must be a bunch of great dudes
This is one of the best video I've seen. Absolutely beautiful filming.
wow, your filming, editing and story telling could not be any better. next level. you just get better and better thanks man
Amazingly documentary film. As an avid outdoorsman, I can definitely relate to being in tune with nature and your surroundings without having your cellphone in your face lol. You are much more focused on reality. A peaceful and joyful experience. Good luck with all your endeavors and God bless.
Thanks for posting this video. It shows what a quest for fish means.
Well done guys, well done!
I watched this yesterday, now I’m listening to the podcast episode on it. Man, thank y’all for the entertainment!!
Trip of a lifetime all that hard work paid off guys !
Great work guys!
I love Dodder creek! Favorite place to harvest bulls!
Amazing video!
Man these videos just make me feel so good and warm inside. I’m a Fly fishing Floridian who fish 98% saltwater but will someday venture out that way and chase trout in hopes of finding my own Wild story, Thanks for the great vids you guys put together constantly and thanks for the lessons and inspiration!! 👏🏾🤙🏾
Always enjoy your videos and music!!! Thanks for sharing these great adventures!!! Keep em coming!!!
What an awesome video. I loved your commentary and stunning views wow! I've always wanted to fly fish in Idaho so I'm grateful I got to travel along with you 😁
Hands down the best fishing Chanel on UA-cam. Such an inspiration and your guys quality is outstanding blue line co included. Love the vids. Happy to be a supporter🤙
Adam’s humor is just as I remember. Glad you’re well dude! Love the videos!
Awesome cinematography. Really appreciate the quality
Really nice production and epic journey. Thanks for bringing us along.
Such a rad video. I live near one of the biggest bull trout spawns in the US in Montana. And have still yet to catch one. This is the year!
This is some incredible videography! Always stepping up your game
Most well done fly fishing video I have seen on UA-cam.
Thank you Lord, for blessing us with fishing adventures :D
Such a great video
