FIVE FLIES FOR JANUARY 2023 with ZEKE HERSH
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 січ 2023
- It's JANUARY and that means midges are going to be the primary fare for trout throughout the Colorado Rockies. For those of us who are looking to avoid seasonal depression, it should be noted that we have turned the corner from losing sunlight to gaining sunlight. That's right! Days are getting longer as we progress through January and into the spring.
While midges will be the primary food this month, fish can still be had on attractors, blue-winged olives, eggs, and streamers when conditions are right.
In this month's episode, host Ivan Orsic and co-host Tanner Smith welcome Trouts Frisco's own Zeke Hersh into the studio to talk about flies, presentations, rigging, and the like for the month of January and beyond.
Next month, our good friend Garrison Doctor, an Umpqua Signature Designer and co-founder of RepYourWater, will be joining us in the studio. As always, we answer a couple of commenter questions about rigging, bug choice, fishing techniques, or maybe a little more of a backstory on this video ( pCnS70BYAB...) of him wrangling a dandy of a brown trout out of a hole in the ground. If you have a question about February or anything RepYourWater - leave a comment down below on the UA-cam video. If we pick yours, you'll WIN a Trouts Prize Pack - including prizes from Rising Fish and Umpqua!
For the month of January, the Five Flies are available at our Denver location and online.

February's episode is being taped next week and it's with RepYourWater's own Garrison Doctor. Garrison just so happens to be an Umpqua Signature Designer as well. Drop your questions for Garrison (February fishing related or not) down below!
Greetings!! Much love and respect to Rep Your Water, much love and respect to Tanner, Ivan and all at Trouts!!
My question is, when are we gonna have a Trouts and RepYourWater collaboration hat?! 😉😘
When using a euro nymphing set up, what is the best way to attatche leader to fly line, with still being able to change out leader easily? I tied a nail knot, but when I wanted to switch to a different diameter leader.. I had to snip n retie my nail knot. Is there a better way? Snip but section of leader and tie from there? (May caise more bumps when going thru guides). Leave thr loop to loop? Or just make more money and buy spare spools? Thanks for all your insight and advice.
Wade fishing for pike right after ice-off. When does it typically happen and why is shallow water pike the best?
Rim Chung and JJ Cale.
1970s rule.
Kind regards and tight lines from the Upper Delaware River.
It was a blue greedy spider, but I had to tie it on an old school hook, because all the other tiemco hooks bent
There's always anglers up early on the tailwaters at Deckers. Is there a significance in success being early versus when it warms up.. What's more affective during this time of the month if you're up that early. Size, color or having does having a specific run help.
Where do you put the weight on your rig? If it's a beaded fly, do you put that on your first fly or last? Would you put splitshot between flies?
Thanks guys
Are you for or against tippet rings? Lol also this was your first podcast that I watched. It was great for some background noise while tying some flies
February question - what's your favorite art medium? What's your favorite species to draw/paint?
Do you have any tips for tying tiny flies onto tippet while you are on the water? Is the secret just to not and have your nymph rigs pre rigged in a warm home? Also what is your lower limit on fly size? Finally in you ropinion do you think that the fly size is more important or tippet size especially in the colorado tailwaters we all enjoy?
It took me 3 days to finally land the German Brown trout, they measured it atc38 inches
@6:34 20 Incher should be in a size 10...not 18. Our b.
Ha ha I thought that size 18 20 incher was tied on a 8x long hook
February question. Does anyone use battery operated socks to keep your feet warm? I see that simms sells a boot foot wader that might be warmer. Explain why you would or would not use the boot foot wader? I can keep my body and hands warm but i get cold toes after 3-4 hours. Tom Bonnot.
February question: what factors do you take into account when deciding what style (parachute, comparadun, etc) adult mayfly imitation to use?
A trifecta
February question for Garrison Doctor: Did you go to an art school or get a degree in art, and if so, which school and what degree if you got one?
February question:
With the Mothers Day Caddis hatch approaching on the Ark, I wanted to tie up some "free swimming" caddis patterns. I have read that caddis are active swimmers in the water (which I did not know) but I could not find any good patterns specifically for free swimming caddis. Can you explain a bit of the life cycle of caddis as well as some must have aspects for a free swimming caddis imitation? Thanks!
February question- What are your thoughts on different wading boot soles? Felt vs studs vs just tread? Pros and cons for each?
February Question: How do you handle a foul-hooked fish that is difficult to bring into the net?
What is the theme song for the show, and does cold change the type of leader material you use?
Work the Ho-Ho... bumper sticker.
My question for the Doctor is, can you design a tattoo for me and I will head over to dead drift tattoo and get it done. My other question not for the
doctor but when will Charlie Blackmon be on the show. And a question for Ivan, what hat were you wearing? A new Trouts hat?
With BWO hatches around the corner, what are your strategies for fishing small dries? How do you stay see them and keep them afloat better? Thanks!
Thomas, you're question was selected for the February episode. Shoot me an email ivan@troutsflyfishing.com with your preferred method of delivery - pick up or shipped - and your mailing address, if applicable.
Question for Garrison: How long did it take you to be confident to draw a perfect looking trout/What made you want to become an artist?
Mr. Colorado!!!!
Question for Garrison: As an avid bird nerd, do you use your aviary knowledge to improve your fly fishing game, or is it mostly so you can tell me about the blue billed hooted swallow you saw on the water when we get back to the lodge?
Wolfgang, you've won..again. Are you going to be picking up the prize pack at the shop or do you want us to ship it to you?
@@TroutsFlyFishing I can swing by the shop. Let me know when you need me to be on as a guest.
@@wolfgangzahner9163 Swing by whenever you want, Wolfgang.
I miss the original 5 flies that you filmed on the rivers. Definitely not the same in a studio.
I think you over thought this.
Greedy spiders
