      Dude, watching all that fish was somewhat very pleasing, damn beautiful fish to look at or to catch it fun to reel them in. Subscribed and very much like this video. 10 minutes of joy

    Beautiful Drone footage right off the bat AJ. I never knew Kokanee turned red during the spawn, for some reason I thought they were a hybrid and didn’t reproduce. Shows what I know about salmon. Love the classic AJ slow-mo release shots. Cool B- roll too.

      Hey thank you for the compliments on the video buddy. Blue Mesa is so low right now it’s not worth the hike to get to the inlet. The dream stream needs another two weeks. This was north west. Shoot me a email I’ll help you out with a few places. This was filmed 3 weeks ago. Email is aj@coloradofisher.com

    Hey AJ love your videos I’ve got a few questions how high up do you put the strike indicator? do you use any weights to get the eggs down?

    • @MountainStateAngler
      @MountainStateAngler  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks Chad. Sorry about including a few of those points bud. The strike indicator you have to make the judgement based on how deep you’re fishing. Meaning, if it’s 4ft deep have your indicator at 6ft up on the line so that way you can still have a good drift. The split shots is dependent on the speed of the current. I put 1 BB size fly fishing split shot or one BB and another one just below that size.

      Snagging is a low-end crap way to catch fish. From observations, that crowd leaves trash, snags browns & and doesn't take showers. Spinning or fly, Catch em like a fisherman with skill.
