    Mmmm, ....Wooley Bugger swing = Massive smash and run. Nice vid brother. I'm wondering if that 15 inch fish was a Steelhead. No way to tell unless there's a barrier below your spot. Have fun and let 'em go.

    Hey man I live in federal way. I’m a student and have been a trout fishermen for about 8 years but only in lakes. My quarter for college just got out for me and I just managed to buy myself some decent fly gear (pretty much everything) I have never been out but I am really wanting to learn and expand my horizons in fishing. I have absolutely no idea where to go around this area...was wondering by chance if you would be willing to help me out and show me the ropes? I have family that fishes but I don’t know anyone that knows how to or where in this area to fly fish.
    If you would be willing to help me out and help me learn this new way please respond to this post. I’ll pin it so i should get a notification...and I just subscribed to your channel! Looking forward to some new videos!

Wader free (just got some) and was hot so shins were fine but a full dunk.with my fly pack on and everything including my sidearm inside...SMH.
      Hit me up sometime man. Im gettin a saltwater license today so I can go fish cutthroat off the fly rod out off alki/lincoln park area where they linger.
      Im new. Farm trout fishing off the bottom of a lake is like auto pilot fishing so im enjoying the learning.
