Greetings from Michigan! I’m a 66Y.O. Retired backpacking, trout fishing UP sm stream bum, and just happened upon your channel. I can’t stop watching! It’s driving my Wife crazy!! She says you sound exactly like me while wilderness foraging or “fish on” excitement and laughter! Your videos are filling a void that I have had in my life since an accident disabled me! God bless you and enjoy!
Hello Dennis, im also from the up and love trout fishing in the streams up here! Been my absolute favorite thing to do since i was very young, i really enjoy just being in the water with the fish. It is so calming and good for the soul. Fish on brother!
Also im so sorry to hear about the accident. If you even want some pictures or videos of when i wade the streams id be more than happy to send some your way!
Dude, the footage, the location, the effort you put into capturing the adventure was just super sick on this one! Well worth the wait. Awesome stuff man!
I love this shows the hardships of a standard day’s fishing - thank you for showing reality and your consistently positive mindset is something everyone should strive for
I absolutely love watching your videos every week. I’m a 60 year old single woman and I live for my hiking and my fishing. I just started flyfishing about three years ago and I don’t feel so badly because I fish like you do lol. Most of what I catch is just luck more than actual skill. I love watching your catch and cooks and just today I caught a nice little 11 inch rainbow on the fly rod so this evening I will be trying a fish taco with the onions mushroom avocados and cheese on my tortilla. Wish me luck. I am very blessed and that there is a beautiful trout stream that runs right through the little town where I live. It has a lot of native fish but the local club, of which I belong, stocks it every year as well. So pretty much every day after work I can fish if I want to because it’s so close. Yes there have actually been times when I stood at the creek with a fly rod in hand with a dress on and bare feet!!
My family and I just got into fishing and found your channel. We are hooked! My daughters enjoy watching your videos together with my wife and I. Thank you for keeping the content family friendly. This allows us to enjoy the videos together with our young children. Keep up the good work!
Going through tough times, hard to get up in the morning. Feeling like I have nothing. Starting your video and hearing your upbeat voice and personality is inspiring.
I LOVE IT when you fly fish. I was spin fishing half my fishing career but i was "bored" and when i switched to fly fishing i felt better when fishing.
Love it. I wouldn't fish with a fly rod, I'd never catch one. But, you instill confidence in people, I think. That's one of the reasons I watch. Thanks again. 😊
You are so fortunate to have these escapades into the beautiful land around you!! Please keep them coming. I'm a mom of 3 in California and I get so happy when I see another one of your adventures posted on YT. My thanks to you!! Please keep them coming.
I have to say, this is my favorite channel! You got me started on fly fishing and I'm super excited to learn it!! Thanks for the awesome vibes brother! Blessings!
You’re a inspiration to young and old!! Had me laughing so hard when you ate the strap of your hat with the cheese! Love how you stop and take a moment to soak it all in. Getting out in the woods is something we should all try to experience a few times a year. Keep rolling out the videos!!
I love seeing the fly rod. I bought my first fly rod a month or so ago and it’s so fun to use. I haven’t caught anything substantial with it yet but it’s been a good time. Love the vids. This is my favorite UA-cam channel and I’m always stoked when a new video pops up in the feed. Congrats on 500k! Cheers!
I can't stop watching you catch and cook fish. It's like they bite early because they want to be in the video. You're like the best fisherman I saw on UA-cam.
I love seeing you doing more fly fishing! For the future, you should try using a foam grasshopper fly as a top fly with a nymph tied on below it. That foam hopper will make it easy for you to see when you get hit (like an indicator) and also it will float very easily so it will control your depth to hopefully reduce snags. Give it a try - I think it’s one of the best ways to fish for trout because it’s easy to use and effective. Keep up the great work!
Hey NWFS! I have been watching your mountain trout fishing videos for a while and I am obsessed with them! I hope you are having an amazing day and keep up the good work!!! - Dylan
One tip that (sometimes) works for getting un snagged…let some line out past the snag and then gently pull back using the line to pull the fly from the opposite direction. Fish on buddy!
It’s usually the bead getting stuck in the crack of a rock. Playing around creating drag with the fly line sometimes helps….if it’s the hook stuck in a stick however…you’re SOL 😂
Awesome video as always bro! I’m so stoked next week I’ll be backpacking and fishing the eastern Sierras for four days. I’ve definitely learned a lot from your videos.
Hey, Nwfs, love your content. You've inspired me to create my own UA-cam channel and I'm going on a trip to catch my second trout ever this week because of you.
After a long day of work, it's always great to watch these videos to just relax and settle down. Fishing is my favorite activity and watching you do it is a blast. Thank you.
Awesome video. What I like best about your videos is that we get a chance to get to know you through them. Your character really shines through and it makes the videos all the more interesting. Thank you
These videos are so calm and relaxing. Love every second of them. Hope you'll reach that next milestone, with the effort and pure joy you put into these videos you certainly deserve it
Absolutely beautiful scenery. How lucky are you to be able to fish these remote locations. You are getting what you deserve for what you are putting in my friend. Stunningly brilliant videos.
Thanks for making such great entertainment! Me and my family love watching you, we can't always get out to the wild but your videos help easy the pain!
I absolutely love your channel, I got my fishing license because of your videos. Trying to relearn how to fish, haven’t done it since I was a kid. Now I’m taking my daughters to fish with me.
okay im going to just say this now.... my man thank you for your channel man you had helped me soooo many times in life its self i owe this Thank you to you !.... now i can say your such a cool guy honestly i wish i could be apart of one of your videos.. i lost a brother about 4 years ago and its...its ruff somtime's and you help me remain balanced .. so Thank you northwest fishing secrets absolutely happy to be here..
Just subscribed even tho I’ve been watching for 3 months..sorry brotha. But we need more! From Montana and love watching you thrive through the mountains!
This made my day seeing another one of your videos! I wish I was out there doing exactly what you are, but at 75 & recently widowed I can only dream. Please be safe.
I love and look forward to your videos every time. In fact I rewatch a lot of them because I always feel like I am there too. The shots are always perfect, the information you provide is easy to digest. Thank you for sharing and please stay safe. Looking forward to more videos.
I took a class in NC mountain town and we practiced on the tarmac. That weekend I went to the Davidson River, waded out and started casting. I got so excited because he was right, it worked really nice on the water. I was having a ball. I looked and followed my cast back once and there was a person on a footbridge taking a picture of me fly fishing. I just laughed, if they only knew it was the first time on a river with a fly rod. I absolutely love it!!
I live in WA too, I watch your videos for inspiration man I want to get out there in the woods and capture cool moments like this with a decent camera to upload on IG. Keep it up bro 🤘🏽
Whenever me and my bros eat We watch your videos and be inspired that someday we can go to alpine mountains too Thanks for this wonderful content man always stays awesome
Another awesome video, Leif! You keep enhancing my love for trout fishing. Going to do way more camp, catch, and cook trips next year. Stay awesome brother!
NW you bring me so much joy because I love trout fishing but I live in a place where trout isn't stocked that often so just watching you makes me want to go fishing for trout instead of bass, love the videos, Keep up the work!
another beautiful episode. Little tip: if your fly gets stuck, don't try to pull in the direction your casting from. you have to go downstream and pull from there! ich grüsse dich, Leif
@@NWFishingSecrets I turned on notifications the day I came across your channel! It inspired my life to do what I love and it’s amazing the reply back! Made my week! Look forward to the next video! ♥️
Love the way you say "Ebizode" it stuck to me. Been saying it to all my friends and family. Love your content and your attitude throughout your videos. Keep posting man!
Great video, beautiful location! Spent the whole time keeping your boots dry until...FISH ON BABY!!.... and then wades out into the river like an excited 4 year old!!

Thanks for remembering to give us a sip . That was incredibly tempting to lick my screen
It'd have been worth it man. That water was so fresh 🤤

Hey NWFS! I have been watching your mountain trout fishing videos for a while and I am obsessed with them! I hope you are having an amazing day and keep up the good work!!! - Dylan
Thanks for joining on the adventure! Hope you're having a great day as well Dylan!
Thank you. We have a boat but I've made an effort to bank and stream fish with my 7yr old because of you. Now he loves both. Keep it up brother.
I love your content man just makes me want to go out and do this myself
🔥 hell yeah man!
Every time you pull up a trout it gets my heart going. I gotta fish the NW in this lifetime.
One tip that (sometimes) works for getting un snagged…let some line out past the snag and then gently pull back using the line to pull the fly from the opposite direction. Fish on buddy!
That's a genius idea 😳 Especially with the thick fly line........ 🤔 Thanks!
It’s usually the bead getting stuck in the crack of a rock. Playing around creating drag with the fly line sometimes helps….if it’s the hook stuck in a stick however…you’re SOL 😂
long videos are the best
Awesome video as always bro! I’m so stoked next week I’ll be backpacking and fishing the eastern Sierras for four days. I’ve definitely learned a lot from your videos.
Thanks for watching! Man enjoy the Sierras!! Fish on!!!

@@NWFishingSecrets thank you
The panic mode and fear you present when the forest humbles you is something to learn and grow from.
