- Today we are out doing some spring fishing for salmon and end up finding a honey hole with hundreds of stack-up salmon! I've had a lot of requests to see some more nymphing on this channel so here you go!

That's about as perfect of a day fishing as you could get! Great video!
You got that right! Thanks for watching
Jess
Another great video. keep up the great work.
That first catch was Epic🔥🔥
I love Spring....when the water level & conditions are right = fun times.
Grand Lake salmon are like silver bullets. Tbanks for the great video!
My wife and I really are enjoying your videos! Keep it up!
Glad you both enjoy it! I'll have plenty more to come !
Your camera work and editing are top notch! Thanks for the continued great content. 🍻
Thanks! I’m currently saving up for a better camera so it will only get better from here!
music needs to be jazz, I think
Wow ! Another great fishing vid brother , some just beautiful fish with pristine water, really kool, thanks for sharing,GOD bless
Glad you enjoyed it! and thanks for watching 🙏
killing it man
Really like the two screen video, well done. Great day at GLS catching LL’s!
This was probably filmed early may or late April
Jesse awesome footage and Landlock Salmon 👍🎏
I will be in the Great State of Maine the last week of September!
The Vermonter
Must've somehow missed this video! Amazing day stream! Gorgeous healthy looking salmon! Man, you're the master! Love these videos but I think Im going to need a bib ,the drooling is ridiculous..lol!
Definitely one of my favorites from this spring! Glad you found it. Hopefully this year will have more days like this!
That was just so cool. Thanks for the info.
No problem! Im glad you got some use out of it
Great video man! Keep it up!
Thanks, Will do!!
Intro is 🔥🔥
Thanks!
Awesome work, I didn't realize on a double nymph rig that it's pretty common to use a stone fly as the top fly. I tried a Bead Head Pheasant Tail above a hares ear and didn't have much luck.
Thanks! It all depends what they want to bite that day. I mostly use a stone fly as the lead fly to help get the whole rig down fast. If I dont need that much weight i'll go to a smaller tungsten fly
Love this Jesse Can not believe I missed it.
Glad you found it Jim! This was one of my favorites of the spring
I’m so jealous!
Great video. Looks like the black flies were pretty thick!
Thanks, Oh yeah they were out in full force. I'm just happy the liked the dark hat more than my face 😂
Another great video! I’m headed up to Baxter for Memorial!
Thanks! Best of luck up there!
Great video! Love that place. When was this filmed? We were there for 3 days a couple weeks ago and did pretty well on dries.
The Black Flies look something FIERCE! yowzaa
Thats for sure! But they typically mean the fishing is getting good so i have mixed feeling on them 😂
any suggestions for flies at rapid river in ME? going very late april. ive checked out your shop, but i just dont know what would work over there. new to fly fishing and i just hear "match the hatch"
What kind of rod and reel are you using. I know your fly fishing but what is rod length and wt.
Great footy!
🔥🔥
Awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome video. Was fishing in Maine last week fish seemed pretty skinny this year compared to others
The stocked ones in this video were skinny but I found all the native to be quite plump
Dams and fertilizer runoff will do that to em.
what is the drag on your rod
Fantastic vids
Thanks Robert glad you enjoy them!
Great video
You gotta give me some maine camping spots with good fishing , newbrubswick canada and maine usa real close
How are those dryft waders holding up? Great video!
Learned a few things from you in this video. Does fishing with a bobber give a more natural presentation to the fish? (I've always just watched the end of my fly line and done well).
I don't like carrying a net either. Did you ever try holding the fish upside down while removing the hook? I definitely think it's calms them down more.
Like your grouse hunting videos got my wife interested we are from north Wisconsin
I could watch you catch hundreds...especially because I watch at night when I can't be out fishing myself
Maybe one day I'll just post a video that is a hour of strait fishing
Never been to Maine. Looks beautiful.
You'll have to make a trip some time!
What size rod?
dam the salmon there are tiny dinks in Maine
Very noice!
@@pbr2424 why did you say this to me?
@@pbr2424 agreed
Awesome! A “back east” video of a guy actually fishing….and not snagging on a spawning bed.
Where is this place?
Which area is this ?
Awesome video,unsure what rod,reel or line your using,1 sugestion is go to a switch rod,the extra length would be a great help deep wading & roll casting,tight lines & bent rods
I definitely agree! I’m pretty low budget though this is one of the original Graphite blanks that my grandfather gave me. It’s actually too heavy for these fish but it works for now
@@MainelyOutDoors get it & was only an idea,understand about low budget,tight lines & bent rods 🤟
Kork fishing!
Do you ever tie trolling flies for stripers?
I never have I’ve only tied trout trolling flies
You need a French press or a strainer man... lol straight cowboy coffee.
Yeah, I use to have one in there but I found I was too lazy to use it when I just wanted to get out on the river
Dig that stonefly pattern. it looks almost like a matte black.
i gotta practice tying some of those
You should its a time-consuming tie but looks great in the fly box and the fish love it!
@@MainelyOutDoors ya i’m definitely gonna have to try some of those. it looks great
This guy reminds me of the poacher guy from the wild thornberrys movie
Great video very well done. Is this also filmed in Maine? I live in Montreal and I'm planning a fishing trip to Maine, any suggestions?
Thanks! Yes, it was in Maine. Coming in May-June or September -October will be the best times (Edit: if you are interested in Trout and Salmon) and places like Grand lake stream or the East Outlet are a good starting point
@@MainelyOutDoors Perfect, thank-you I guess I'm heading to Maine!
@@flaviopaolantonio2826 Best of luck!
How come they look like brown trout
Hi man, I live in the area for the Summers. Do you "guide" people.
I’d also be interested
I’ll probably be getting my guide license in the next year. But being a decent fisherman and a good guide are very different things. So I just want to make sure I have the knowledge and experience before becoming a Maine guide. I’ll be sure to let everyone know when I do become one though

Do your flies cost anything when you make them?
Definitely hooks and beads are the most expensive part
@@MainelyOutDoors and how much are they if I buy them from you.
@@nathanbieber5199 ive got all that info up here if you’re interested. www.mainely-outdoors.com/custom-fly-orders you can alwas shoot me an email too if you have more questions. these comments are very hard to keep track of on youtube
I will be in Bar Harbor this Thursday and Friday, are you around? Would like to buy some flies and say hello. Its a little to late to order, it was a last minute vacation me and my wife planned.
No sorry I’m out in gls right now
Did you just make cold instant coffee..??
I’d probably fish more if they had antlers...
😂 closest thing we've got is some kypes in the fall
@@MainelyOutDoors i had to google that 😂😂😂
Love your channel, but I simply have to ask you given the sheer size of some of the fish you’ve been landing, why not have a fighting but cap on the end of your rod to make reeling them in a little easier for you? You can purchase a package of three for only $6.95 at the Mad River Outfitters website (and not to worry cause I’m not on their payroll). Just thinking about making things a little easier for you is all. 😇
Shame that when atlantic salmon go extinct by the end of this decade, all that'll be left is stocked pools of trapped fish like this.
I disagree with the gentleman who said you are giving away spots. You usually don’t get very specific unless the places are generally quite well known. Grand Lake Stream is hardly a secret, & it’s heavily stocked.
If you ever get to the West Branch above Millinockett, stoneflies work quite well, along with caddis for subsurface, as well as the dry version.
Friendly correction, you were standing on a beaver lodge (house). A dam would go completely across the stream &. block the flow.
Be well.
Stoneflies work
I disagree too but everyone is entitled to their opinion. I do get his point of view, but every state needs places where new people can go learn and GLS is definitely no secret. As for all the other spots with native fish, I leave that up to everyone to find on their own. In the end that's part of the fun.
Thanks for the tip I'm going to try to make it out that way more this year but we'll see. I'm trying to learn GLS like the back of my hand this year before becoming a guide
😂 yes, I'm not sure why I kept calling it that I noticed it when I was editing.
in all seriousness, why do you feel the need to broadcast our fishing spots? what do you gain from it? i enjoy your videos but i just dont understand why youd risk spoiling our gems. ive seen the increase in pressure over the years and ive also seen the direct affect on the fish. theres already enough pressure on these fish, the last thing we neeed is more. maybe you should consider just saying a general location, like eastern maine, or western maine...
I never give away spots to places that are not well known. Grand Lake Stream is a heavily stocked fishery that gets a majority of its revenue from people coming to fish it. Highlighting these areas can benefit Maine. Whether you like it or not places like grand Lake Stream or the east outlet are Maine’s sacrificial lambs that anyone will tell you you should fish if you walk into a fly shop and ask where to fish Maine. This is why I mentioned these spots. However, like in the video before I was on a native brook trout stream that also had native Atlantic salmon and I would never give away that spot.
@@MainelyOutDoors dont forget about the people who've fished these places their entire life but now can barely find a place to wet their line on certain days. well known is exactly right, too well known. the sacrificial lamb is only so big, why do you feel the need to give my share away? let the people walk into the fly shop and get their info, its not up to you to play god. when you put too many people into a certain spot, some will be forced to find a different place to fish, you know what that does? it puts more pressure on those little places that have native salmon and brookies. youre putting more pressure on a sensitive fishery and ignoring the repercussions. wether or not you see can see it, by sharing your location, you're having an indirect effect on all of the fishing in that area. i enjoy your videos and admire the fact that you're out there, making good content, and sharing it with us that are too busy to get out there to fish as often as we'd like. other than you selling a few flies on your website, i dont see how broadcasting this location is beneficial.
@@MainelyOutDoors i'll give you the perfect example. i was in this same location at the end of april when the fish were just starting to move into the rivers. i fished there 2 out of the 3 days i was supposed to, one of the days, there was double the capacity at all of the holes that hold fish that early in the season and no place for me to go (half were from another state). where do you think i was forced to go? i was pushed into a small stream with native fish. eventually, people will be making videos in these places. i just hope you can see the risks you're taking and reconsider.
@@newmoon984331 Do you honestly believe that his videos are going to change how many people go to GLS to fish? This is a well known fishery world wide that guides in the area promote. What he is doing could very well bring others to the area, hire a guide and bring money into an area that does not have a large economy.
@@newmoon984331 there are numerous websites and blogs on the internet with significantly more detailed info on these “secret” spots that have been available for years, UA-cam videos like this one are not the problem. A simple google search of “where to fly fish in Maine” will give you detailed stream and hole locations, times of the year to fish them and patterns to use. The info is out there on the popular spots mentioned like GLS and the EO and the experience fishing them is no longer like that of the old days you’re referring to, that’s just the reality of the times.
