Thanks for watching! Be sure to give this video a like if you enjoyed it 👍
That first fish you caught was definitely pure. I think those are the most beautiful goldens I have seen in a creek. I know of one place to catch them here in a creek where I live but they don’t seem to get that big. Pretty amazing thanks for sharing !
One of my faves of your videos. I can tell that you are just in awe over Goldens. The clear highlight of my fishing life occurred when I hooked a big Golden right at dusk at an 11K' lake in the Sierras. I played the fish toward shore and as it got close, a ray of sun broke through the low clouds and lit the fish just as it rolled on the surface. After releasing that fish I just sat on the rocky shore and relived what I had just seen. That brilliant golden moment will be with me forever.
11k’ lake?
@@hughmungus2946 Yes. Right near the Sierra Crest. 21 mi in when approached from the west.
@@jfowler7604 the deepest lake in the world is 5k’ so do u mean 1k?
@@hughmungus2946 11K above sea level.
This is the video that convinced me to 1. Take up Tenkara. 2. Buy the Zen Suzume and 3. Finally begin my motorcycle camping journey. Thanks Tristen 👊🏼
Good for you on all 3 counts! Especially the last of the three!
As a lifelong “Bassman”, this video is real easy to appreciate. What a gorgeous run of water and surroundings and you sir, did a fantastic job bringing us the experience. Well done. Those Goldies are quite unique. I hope that little “glade of heaven” never changes.
That was amazing. Remarkable size and colors of those fish. Kudos to your viewer recommendation and to you for not giving up the location.
Pretty crazy, huh! Thanks Jim.
Okay, that was impressive. I'm glad you're trying to keep the location secret. A creek that size would easily be overwhelmed and over-pressured by crowds of fishermen. Frankly, I'm surprised someone told you about it. Glad you got to make a video but I would never "out" a creek that good, especially for a video going on the internet. I'm all about folks going out, exploring and putting in the time and work to find stuff like this. If someone shows up to any of my "secret spots" I welcome them, but I know they didn't hear about it from me. You're a lucky guy to be trusted with waters this great- keep up the good work.
I think my very first response would be a full row of exclamation points! Beyond that, I’ll just offer a very sincere thank you for sharing this amazing outing with us!
Thanks Michael, I appreciate that!
Wow! I've never caught a golden or even seen one in real life! Stunning! Such brilliant colors!
The flow looked really low. Yet the water sure produces! Beautiful!!! Outstanding!
It really was a great spot! Thanks Michael.
Wow, what a stream! Reminds me of a creek I was gifted in Colorado, just a little creek most would drive past without a glance, but follow it in far enough and it's Shangri La!
Gorgeous fish from a gorgeous stream! Thanks for bringing us along!
I've watched it 3 times bc it's incredible to see these gems. I'm in awe.
I've never saw golden trout as gorgeous as these. Unreal. Heaven on Earth.
What a breathtaking place, and those special fish, Damm
Absolutely epic. I can’t wait to try Tenkara this summer on my favorite Oregon river, the Siletz.
On my bucket list! My dad & Uncle used to catch them on the Upper Kern River by Kennedy Meadows 65 years ago.
Man props to whoever tipped you off to this spot, if I had found that stream I wouldn’t tell another soul and take it to my grave 😂 those are truly the most beautiful trout in the world
Love the content , helps deal the stresses of life. All I want to do is fish tenkara but the kids have soccer and lawn has to get cut . These videos help me scratch the itch . Fire content
Wow ! ! Just amazing. Must get no pressure to have mature fish like those. Great job landing them. Sorry about your net. Been there. Thanks, Tristan.
Yeah, losing the net was a bummer, but the fish made up for it!
I love that you don't share the locations where you fish. I used to fish small backcountry streams in Colorado many years ago and the adage "Loose lips crowd small streams" is very true. I used to make up names (Winding Creek was a fav) or just tell folks I couldn't remember the name. Love your channel - brings back fond memories of my younger days.
Awesome! Consistently huge fish for not so huge water!
That structure has my curiosity cant figure out what it is. Beautiful place! Thank you for sharing your adventures!
Bucket list fish for me. Just gorgeous, and incredible size for that water. Holy moly.
Wow, I haven't ever seen golden that big. The largest I ever caught were 7" and I thought those were huge. Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
This is amazing! Those are fantastic Goldens for any moving water, but for one that is not the immediate outlet or inlet of an alpine lake, this is unreal! Congratulations!
BEAUTIFUL GOLDEN TROUT! PICTURE PERFECT TROUT! CAN FEEL THE YOUR EXCITMENT! SUCH FUN!
WOW! You are just so very, very lucky; just wish it were me. It is fifty years since I caught a golden trout in a remote Scottish loch high in the NW Highlands.
Absolutely stunning fish! Nice work! One of my favorite videos of yours!
Wow goldens are so beautiful fish stunning most beautiful in the trout family
Love the videos thank you for sharing
That was incredible, simply incredible. Great fish, great scenery, and great video!
Those goldens are huge to be coming out of a creek that size! I can tell because their par marks are hardly visible. The largest golden trout I've every caught out of a small creek was only about 10". I would totally go through huge lengths to keep that creek a secret
What a great day with Beautiful fish. Goldens are special. Congratulations
Another great video keep them comming . They make Saturday morning coffee most enjoyable
Some gorgeous trout you catch.Here in England we have only brown trout that are native wild trout.
I both hate and love this video. Hate it because I'm not the one catching those beauties, lol. Love it because how can you not? Amazing fish and another great video.
This creek is where I caught my first golden trout! Same pocket at 8:40. Well done!
Nice! Beautiful little creek.
what creek??
Absolutely stunning fish.
What is so cool is that this population has evolved to match their environment and be less visible.
Look at the larger fractured rocks that make up the streambed. It also looks like their may be tannins or some mineral that is staining the water, again favoring those individuals with that coloration.
Beautiful fish!! And beautiful countryside!
Wow! Incredible color. I’m in awe, thanks to that subscriber!
Wow! Beautiful Goldens! Thanks!
WOW!! What magic moment!! Nice Job keep up with great videos very entertaining for us who leave for on the fly.
GREAT VIDEO, thanks for sharing. Could you tell what is the ratio action for your ROD? 6:4, 5:5, 7:3?
Thanks in advance
I watched it again. I'm just amazed. I do believe they are pure mature Goldens. No pressure. Clean pure water. I'm amazed.
Now that was my favorite video yet. Awesome!!!!!!👍😳🤦♂️🇺🇸
Thank you Golden trout wilderness Tulare county California. Make sure you stop at the ranger station and get a wilderness permit. All of that area burned last year.
Oh! It's a beautiful fish! I'm jealous.😊
Definitely! Thanks for watching.
Awesome creek and fish! So jealous!
It was pretty great! Thanks Steve.
That spot is like a dream…those look like pure strain goldens to me, not unlike some photos I have seen when folks were first discovering these fish. Great video, really enjoy your channel, keep up the great work!
It was a great spot, for sure!
Those golden trout are not pure strain. Pure golden has 10 ovals along side of each side of their body they are one of the few trout that keep their ovals all the way till adulthood
Really beautiful crick. Awesome fish, Thanks for sharing
Beautiful fish and beautiful location! WOW!
Always admire your adventures. Beautiful trout. Your best fishing video I think. Bummer about loosing your net. Strange how you get attached to them.
Thanks Randy, I'm glad you liked it!
Or unattached
Wow!!! What a fish, man its hard to keep somthing that pretty!!
Przepiękne rybki 😊👍
Wild golden trout or one of my favorite they're usually remote and they are one of the tastiest wild trout
Another awesome video well done
beautiful colouration, but look at the colour of the rocks and moss etc. perfectly adapted.
I was just about to ask you what the prettiest fish you caught, or at least I was thinking of asking when you caught your first fish! I’d this still the case? 👏🙌🔥❤️
Lol you got your karma of not talking about spots almost instantly😂
Have you tried loop casting in tree/brush impeded areas? It does tend to put more line on the water but has worked well for me and my clan.
Great video. Wow, amazing fish and scenery! 👍
have you tried THE SAN JUAN river worm pattern? or any worm pattern? i find they some times work better than real worms do them were BEAUTIFUL fish thank you for sharing them with us
Love your videos. I would love to go and fish up west. Do you ever encounter bears or cougars
I've seen a cougar only one time. I usually see bears every year.
Wow!Wow!Wow! Speechless
Oh my goodness! Nice listener! Fun video.
That's some pretty looking trout.
“Un-Real” or better yet Un-Reel…
You hit a trout Gold Mine! This is great content!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
a gold mine of goldens
Big fan of not disclosing location. I’ve personally seen spots get ruined cause someone wanted more likes on UA-cam. Wish everyone did what you did
Simultaneously wishing I knew where it was and am glad you aren’t telling us
THAT WAS TOTALLY WICKED!!!! 💥👍👍
At time 1:45 that fish was a real beauty.
Tonto Creek in Arizona where the golden trout thrive!
At a certain size Can you keep those to eat??
“Look at this fish it’s a twelve-incher”, love the concept but made me laugh as I live in Alaska. Nonetheless, sweet video!
Best quality rare fish video.
I'm addicted to his channel now
That's the goal! 😄
The remains of the gold mining dam were neat to see.
Were the adipose clipped on some of the fish? Maybe it was just the angle you were holding them.
Wow this is amazing!
Epic! Gorgeous fish
They really were. Thanks Conner!
Finding pools is just as much fun as landing bites, to me anyway.
Excellent!..........what was the elevation there?....
Oh... I know where this is but I'm not telling either 🤫🤫
I was fishing there last spring. Water level was much higher making going up the stream very difficult but the fish were easier to catch. I thick I caught over 20 goldens.
Awesome! It's a gorgeous little stream, isn't it?
this is one of your best
Can you show your flies the next time you use a ride and fishing string, would be nice to see what you catch the fish with.
No Words... Awesomeness!
Thanks Dan!
Days you never forget..
Looks like one of the golden spots up in the untia, Ashley national forest. have you heard about those spots?
Yes, I have a Uintas golden trout video coming up soon.
@@TenkaraAddict hell yeah happy I found your page love your video
they sure are gorgeous
Really well done video! I have enjoyed watching your vid’s. Keep it up. We should trade creeks sometime
Fawking awesome bro🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
I’m gonna purchase a fly rod this year. I live in the U.P. And we have some excellent trout fishing and a plethora of small rivers and creeks. I’m sick of using a hook and worms 🪱
The problem with the Suzumi rod is that it can't be disassembled completely. That would a constant annoyance for me.
Nice stocker
Wow... never seen anything like that.
that first one looks hybrid with rainbow.
Some great size golden in such a small stream. Some unique coloration. Been a while since I caught some golden. The large ones can be more red than gold. I'm still partial to male brook trout in the fall. You do a lot of fishing and get around. How do you get so much time off? Is Tenkara paying for these trips or is this part of building your channel?
Love the videos.. just gotta ask … what is it that you do in order to go fishing all the time .. ?
I make travel and adventure videos >> ua-cam.com/users/SUVRVing
was that pool at 8min down from an old dam?
Not hybrids! Nice work.
Those were some thick fish! What was the remains of that structure in the last spot?
This video has convinced me to put a tracking device on you vehicle 😂
Lol!
