man, I just bought a fuji film x-s10 after watching him a couple weeks ago. Then im looking for a flyrod and notice this company from Calgary being only 3 hours away from me. couple videos later it hit me that this was the same guy that sold me on the camera
Dang.....this guy is really comfortable in front of a camera - total professional. He ought to look into commercials or something. Super helpful video - thanks!
Wow, thanks! I appreciate that. I also host DPReview.coms UA-cam channel all about cameras, and have been a UA-cam presenter now for thirteen years. I hope I'm ok in front of camera after all that time! :)
Thanks for the advice and what to get! I didn't know about the way to keep your files dry with the formulas you got that's cool and thanks for sharing! I've been a few times and caught some fish but I always wondered how you kept them floating. I'm from Savannah Georgia and I only get to go to the mountains every once in awhile but it's my favorite thing to do when I get to go! Nothing else is like catching a fish no matter the size on a fly rod it's a heck of a fight and lot's of fun! People say it is to much work to fish but I like it Old School like our grandfather's did it! But I wish everyone good luck fishing and besafe and God Bless You Guys!!!
One of the first things I did when I decided I would try to learn five fishing at age 75. I went and had my eyes examined and got new glasses and ordered a pair of polarized glasses. Of course… I forgot them at home on the first trip out fly fishing. It was very successful trip… at first. I wasted money on my first flyrod. My second really nice fish the pool broke. I managed to get the trout close, just out of range of my net. This is how I know it was a very nice trout. The second day, I had a replacement rod from the resort. I caught plenty of trout, The only problem was they were nice trout if I was fishing mountain streams. I was able to return all of them, except for one. Thank you for reminding me about barbless hook. For some fishing that I did in the past we always remove the Barb with a pair of pliers or bought barbless hooks. Still having problem on presentation, and line control. I have to modify everything because of an injury and surgery on my shoulder. Reading water I have to agree 100%. I’m a novice at River fishing, over the past four years I have improved greatly. Structure is 101 and all fishing, correct presentation per type of fish. I have cheated, using UA-cam as a tutorial. I love the Contant. Thank you for your video. I needed it. What are the things I’m finding most enjoyable about river fishing is that it is always learning. Every year, or after every storm, the bottom changes, you need to be flexible and observant. Sport has come back to fishing for me. It used to be only wanted to have fish dinner, I go out and get a fish that I’m hungry for. Trout fishing, will never be a given. The only certainty is that the trout are in the river.
Thoroughly enjoyed your video, I have been fly fishing for over 35 years, (every day is a school day) I mainly fish lakes here in England but I learned a couple of things from the video so thank you very much for the tips Tight Lines Regards Dave
I got the neck lanyard from orvis that comes with clippers,pliers, floantent, tip it and a fly patch for $90 it is great and cheaper than buying each thing individually. I used to use a bulky vest but now I run a small sling pack for a couple fly boxes and a couple spair leaders
Great to see you Chris! I always enjoyed your camera review vids. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw your face on the thumbnail for the vid. You do a great job. Keep up the good work!
Great video! You could do a whole separate video on older beginners. I would consider adding a wading staff...especially for older people who are a bit less nimble. Depending on the stream bed rock and bolder size, degree of slipperiness water speed wading can get surprisingly difficult and physically challenging. Having a "third leg" can really make a big difference even in shallow water. Another tip for beginners. Put some time into practicing the 2 or 3 basic knots you will be using. When you are on the water you will be tying knots all he time and fly fishing will get very "old" very quickly if every fly change is a trial.
Just now realised you are the guy from DPreview! Been fly fishing for 30+ years and started filming to take this hoppy to a new level. Not easy to film myself on multi-day solo hikes in the Scandinavian mountains (which is my primary interest), but hey, who doesn't like challenges 😃.
Filming and fishing is quite difficult, especially when you're solo. We often find it best to either just film, or just fish. However there is some excellent work being made out there with the right amount of energy and appropriate gear.
@@BowRiverTroutfittersCalgary Could not agree more, but it's hard to find some one prepared to go on 10 day hikes in the middle of nowhere. This is one effort already 4 years old: ua-cam.com/video/ipkLGdVpr5U/v-deo.html
That's a beautiful video! I don't think many will appreciate how much work you actually had to put into it. Such a rugged and beautiful landscape too. We will have to go to Sweden sometime, and you'll have to come fish the Bow too!
@@BowRiverTroutfittersCalgary Wow, that means the world to me! And I agree, most people don't understand how much work it was. Particularly the last scene where I had to start my camera and wade all the way to the other side of the river to catch the fish. Second cast though. Make sure to contact me if you're interested in fishing in Scandinavia! It has taken me decades to find the spots and I still have many more places to explore.
@@BowRiverTroutfittersCalgary Even though I am in Norway I might order out of your store if you do international shipments. I seem to struggle finding good stores / information on Norwegian sites and such. Anyways, 10/10 content and information!
Awesome info Chris as always. Now if you could share which cameras we should use for those fishing trips of a lifetime that isn't our cell phones. Phones are pricey these days and dropping them in the stream could ruin them or be lost forever. You know, something small, economical, and easy to use.
I appreciate it! We like the OM System cameras at the shop. Small, and light lenses, very rugged cameras, and the image stabilization and composite photo modes save you from carrying filters and tripods. Highly recommend them for fishing.
Something that not many flyfishers think about is how you divide the weight on your shoulders. A bag hanging to your side with a lot of stuff in it is not going to be good on your back. Its better to keep the weight even on both shoulders. Have a vest with your most used stuff to be availible whenever, and then keep your other stuff in a evenly strapped backpack
I have really simplified. I'm down to a fannypack and waders. I have a backpack in the truck but I cannot imagine wearing it fishing unless I'm on the river for hours.
I remember the day I decided to get a pair of pliers for fishing. 22 in fat brown taught me that it’s rude to put my fingers down his throat. 3 stitches.
Hey, nice video! I am from Calgary as well. I been thinking of getting into fly fishing (I never did any fishing at all, lol) I was thinking of ordering a combo kit on Amazon for $140 but I think I will visit your store sometime soon (June/July 2022) and see what you guys got for beginners combo set.
Wait a minute ......... !!! 5 seconds into the video I recognized you... I thought, the Canadian guy, with camera store... Yes, that's you ! Oh cool, so you're a fly fisherman now ? I can imagine selling cameras in a shop is tough business when people are buying stuff on Amazon or Walmart more these days. Maybe you still have your camera shop, and just wanted to expand your horizon ... anyhow.. cool seeing you again !
For about 56 years I’ve had backpacks for each type of fishing I’m doing. I just grab it and go. Unfortunately it’s gets expensive because there’s a lot of duplication, therefore, I had a small ditty bag that I had put in any backpack I pick up that has the duplicate tools.
I am 47 now and been fly fishing since I was 5 or 6. Took me about 30 years to hook myself. Got it right in the ear on a really windy day saltwater fishing. But get this. The wind layed down and I did it a second then the same day. What in the world? It was on my mind I guess
Mind boggling all this info in 17:16 secs my my . I am headed to a shop and have a sitdown talk with a pro. As you may read I am grenner than grass on the North side of a tree. Oh dear oh dear thanks guys. Sympathy gladly accepted.
Hello. It is a pity that the distance between us is so far, specialists with such knowledge are rare, I would gladly buy something from you, but I greet you on your way.
As a beginner going to Montana this summer (family trip that I convinced my parents to let me fly fish there) would I be fine with crocs and shorts or swim trunks
Yes, absolutely as long as you’re sticking to shallower water with light currents. As long as it’s a warm day, we often hit the river in shorts although we do like to use neoprene booties and our proper wading boots for better traction. Still, we all started wet wading in our home waters with minimal equipment because that’s just how you start in fly fishing.
I believe you are referring to the TFO Temple Fork Outfitters brand hemostats. These particular ones have a rainbow trout theme and come in a gift set with nippers, and a fly box all from TFO.
Lol... beginner 0 hooks on me! If you go in hiking boots you will go for a swim ... if you go on serious streams waders and boots are a must. Make sure the boots are the ones that take studs!
Question. I wanna start making flies right. But not sure what size tungsten bead to use. I wanna use a #6 or 8 hook. An 1/16 weight. Cuz I have been using regular ball head jigs. An work great. So any help would be appreciated ty an dope video man
The largest bead we will usually do is a 3/16ths size bead. Good match for 6 to 8 sized hooks, and it will get them down fairly quickly. Maybe not lead head ball jig fast, but it will sink them.
There's nothing wrong with pulling out your limit of stockers, that is the reason they are planted and they can't reproduce so pull em and let there be more room for wild borns!
Just getting into fly fishing an I love it, but I'm struggling with the cost of a lot of these items. A decent rubber net costs $160. Also finding these items used is difficult because they are poor quality or are gone fast. Hard to afford brand new stuff when in a recession.
It can be tough, no denying the sport can be expensive. However, one of the best ways is to get involved with your fellow flyfishers. They will often have lots of gear that they don't use and may be willing to offer it for very good prices. I know I've certainly benefitted from a lot of hand me downs and have in turn helped out a lot of new anglers themselves.
Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.
Omg I loved this dude at Camera store and to find him again in the fly fishing world is incredible
HAHA Yes, I said the same thing! I even had to go back to DP Review just to make sure.
Same here, I thought “I know that guy!” from camera reviews.
@@deantreloar this! Hahaha literally came to the comments to figure it out!

I can watch this video over and over and will. Very informative. He needs a raise.
Yes, sunglasses! Most overlooked I think

What about a good beginning rod ? Cabelas ? Dicks ? Whats the list of good beginner rods for not wasting money yet being able to use for a while.
Hello.
It is a pity that the distance between us is so far, specialists with such knowledge are rare, I would gladly buy something from you, but I greet you on your way.
Good thing you covered which nets work best in different situations or types of fish ... fresh, salt water, trout, salmon ....
As a beginner going to Montana this summer (family trip that I convinced my parents to let me fly fish there) would I be fine with crocs and shorts or swim trunks
Yes, absolutely as long as you’re sticking to shallower water with light currents.

That’s a cool bet you’re holding what brand is it?
Those are the Rising nets. All aluminum, and they can have extension handles added to change from streamside to boat length nets at will.
Perfect thanks for the quick response!
Thanks man

@@BowRiverTroutfittersCalgary that’s awesome.
say i want to keep the fish and eat it does it matter or nah
when you go fish, you keep talking about cameras or when you go take pictures do you talk about fishing gear?
When I go fish I forget to bring cameras, and when I go photographing I often wish I was fishing.
I just put like 20 items in my amazon cart. Damn he's a good salesman.
