I cant understand why this video only has 200,000 views. It should have 2 million views. Its the best flyfishing video I have ever seen! Brilliant! Please keep making flyfishing videos.
I spend a lot of time watching fly-fishing vids on YT. This is probably one of the best I've ever seen. The monologue, video quality, music; top notch. Nice work!
I've got the same obsession than you. So streamer became my religion. But here in France, lures and bait fish fishermen keep there big trouts making them very rare. Your film is really beautifull. Thank you. Fred
people, don't ask where these fish are. Find out for yourself. Then maybe have some respect and keep it to yourself if you actually find out and go there.
Its great to see young guys like yourself doing this and not out causing trouble, im sure you will make a great role model to some kid out there that wants to pick up fly fishing or just fishing in general. thank you sir and keep up the good work!
Hey guys, great video. I've fished here in OR 40+ years and rarely seen monsters like those. Way to keep that location confidential. It's a special place and we don't have many of those left. Tight lines.
Your catching some beautiful brownies on the fly and no people about a bit like Northern Scotland just fab ,tight lines and keep up the good work 👍🎣🏴🇺🇸
Well done guys! This is one of the best fly fishing shorts online. I have returned multiple times to watch this and share it with others I know. It's truly amazing! Some day I will make my way up towards Bend and check out the fly fishing and dog hunting.
You're so lucky to live somewhere where you can target these monsters, not to mention have the time to do it. This makes me want to drop everything I'm doing right now and drive 4 1/2 hours down to East Lake from Portland (I caught an 8 pounder there on an articulated streamer I tied).
Great Video Guys!!! Big Browns on Steamers. It does not get any better than that. Its my obsession too. I settle for steelhead and bass, which are fun, but the bruiser browns are something special.
Thanks for sharing. I'm a beginning fly fisherman myself, but I see the time and effort you guys are putting in with logs and data tracking to be successful. That's great. Hope to find the free time one day to really get good at fly fishing. Thanks again. Post more!
Really nice video guys, and respect for all the time you put in to this movie and how you explain your research about the fishing. Inspires me to travel up to the north of sweden to hunt down the bigger browns next fall. For now I'll have to deal with the small tricky forest strems down south. Tanks for the inspiration and a great movie!
I moved to Bend years ago so i could do what you are doing right now! Life went sideways for me there and i ended up moving away, every weekend i get on youtube and search for videos that take me back there. You guys nailed it!
Absolutely incredible. I'm searching for a brute brown in north western pa and it's a journey I've accepted to take and embark. What kinda setup do you run and streamers you prefer I tie my own and would really like advice from you because you are very dedicated and knowledgeable about browns.
Hey Kevin, We run quite a few set-ups but our most common are 9'6" 6wt Helios 2 with either Rio CW Outbound WF8iS6 or a Helios 2 10' 4wt with the Rio Camolux WF4. We tie all our own streamers, realistic colors, white, brown, green etc.
Guys, I have been in the film, video, photography and design business for thirty years, so when I say your film was great, I know what I am talking about. I really enjoyed the beauty, fishing skills and the passion for your obsession. I live and fish in East Tennessee, which is also beautiful and great fly fishing, just not as large. I plan to come to OR next Spring and want to fly fish, so I am assuming the central part is where I need to concentrate? Thanks
Thank you very much Art, it means a lot! Spring is a little bit tougher; shoot us a message on our FB page about when you're coming, and we'll help you out. Mountain Made Media on FB
MountainMadeMedia I appreciate that. I have family in Portland and can come most any time. What is the best time of year for great fishing? I will work around that time frame. I will look you up on FB - Thank you!
I first saw this video a few years ago!! This is still a solid fly fishing video, still holds its own. No need from drone footage, just quality giant browns and beautiful water!
the fish at the end holy cow!!! but just in general.... thats absurd how many monsters u caught.... my PB is trout is 2 pound up here in Massachusetts lol
Greetings from New Zealand. Great video guys and good to see you handling the fish with the respect they deserve. Maybe you guys could come to NZ and make some vids, we have lots of very nice trout fishing rivers and lakes here.
I've been watching this video a cpl times a year around September in anticipation for salmon and steelhead runs out of the great lakes in PA and NY and I must say it continues to get me pumped up for the upcoming season! Favorite youtube fly fishing video!
Damn, y'all are making me want to pick up fly fishing! I already got too many hobbies, I'm trapping a red tailed hawk for falconry in a month or two. I live in the state of Oregon as well and I love fishing for the native redband trout in the mountain streams.
The scene at the end with that monster of a trout is truly epic. This has to be one of my favorite fly fishing videos on the web that I regularly come back to watch again.
Nice video, and very nice fish. What do you guys plan to do for an encore? I'm a local and I visit your special place occasionally. My passion, though, is a lake I'm sure you're familiar with, it has big browns and it's not far away. Let's talk fly lines. I see on one reel, a red backing I am guessing is Amnesia. So, it that a fast(er) sink line on that one? It looks like you're using a couple of clear sinking lines, on your other two reels. Two different sink rates for those?
Hey Capt! I think we are familiar with a special little lake not too far away. The mosquitos can be horrid.. We will likely be producing an instructional video per popular demand.. on streamer fishing for browns in rivers and lakes. NOT a "which rock to stand on" video about "where exactly" we fish, but more about our tactics.. As far as lines.. We use quite a few different sinking lines. The Rio Aqualux, Rio camolux Intermediate, Rio Coldwater Outbound 275gr. Rio Coldwater Outbound 225gr. The Rio Deep 7 full sink. In this video we also used the Airflo Expert Distance 300gr. as well as the Rio Streamertip 15ft S6 and Occasionally the Rio Versa-tip system.. If I had to condense what we use into 3 must have lines.. It would be the Camolux intermediate, the 275gr CW Outbound, and CW Outbound 225gr. We try to take at least 2-3 different ready to rock systems to the water with us to target fish where they will be in the water column depending on the conditions. Hopefully we will see you out there! Tight Lines!
Beau Price I like the lake that's higher in elevation and it got the white slide. Mosquitos are sometimes a nuisance on land, but out on the water, not a problem. I found Kelly Gallop's zoo cougar to be an excellent streamer up there. I have a couple of sinking lines, and the Versa-tip, but I was looking to expand (Denny Rickards claims he changes fly lines more often than flies). It's hard to argue with your success. I'm fix-in to try for some large mouth early, and whether or not I make to your honey hole this year is not certain. You are so correct, there's lots of quality fishing and fish in these parts. So many choices. I look forward to your next production. You guys do a class act. Steve
Capt Rebop AHHH... We are thinking of different places.. Although the White slide lake is where I have "SEEN" the biggest fish locally... And (Denny Rickards) is 100% correct. We use only a few different patterns but many different lines and retrievals.. When we make our "instructional" video it will definitely cover many of our techniques as far as fly and line choices. I think some people will be inspired and others will be annoyed by our disregard for certain "techniques" many people use... We feel the real key to doing better on the water, is breaking away from "tradition" and developing techniques and processes that are unique to each body of water THEY fish based on sciences and experiences... As no two places are alike the process of dissecting a piece of water will always be different... But in most cases is predictable (when there is a base knowledge of the fish, and the conditions that effect them.) Most of our "success" is accredited to small tweaks, in proven strategies.. But when you add up all the small things, the picture we are trying to portray in this video starts to take form. IN FEW WORDS: In our opinion, there is always more to it, and NO ONE including us will EVER have it "figured out"... We love to see other people having success on the water, treating the fish and the resource with respect, and sharing their experience with the rest of the fly fishing community. We hope to see you out there man!
Great video!! Thank you for sharing your experience. Makes me just want to get out even more!! By the way, what setup did you use on the last monster? Thanks
Hey guys, Amazing video. Ya'll have figured out a science I only wish have begun to. I don't want to divulge ya'lls location but, I would love to have the same success. Wouldn't we all. Anyhow...this guys jealous and commend ya for your efforts definitely . Any easy way to BS with ya? Tight Lines!!
Beautiful Fish....
Thanks Frank
I think my heart stopped when I saw that last fish...
Awesome video!
Thanks Mika
Awesome vid! Beautiful browns. The last one is a brute! A "bit" jealous... (-:
Thank you!
this guys casting is amazing to watch
Drew Daniels Thanks Drew
Great fish in your backyard. Makes me wonder why so many americans come here to NZ in search of the big trout.
Couldn't agree more man! unless the stars align it's usually pretty tough around here, gotta work your ass off for just one epic day
I cant understand why this video only has 200,000 views. It should have 2 million views. Its the best flyfishing video I have ever seen! Brilliant! Please keep making flyfishing videos.
I spend a lot of time watching fly-fishing vids on YT. This is probably one of the best I've ever seen. The monologue, video quality, music; top notch. Nice work!
Thank you very much JR; we really try to pay attention to each, and every detail...glad it shows! Tight lines!
passed out from loss of blood to the head for a sec
Surely one of the highest quality fly fishing videos. No BS fluff to fill the silence. Cool tunes, real dudes, great shots.
Well done gentelmen
I've got the same obsession than you. So streamer became my religion. But here in France, lures and bait fish fishermen keep there big trouts making them very rare.
Your film is really beautifull. Thank you.
Fred
Thank you very much Frederic!!
15:15 Fish of a lifetime! Well done guys! Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing your obsession. It makes me feel like I am not alone in the same quest!
Wow. That last fish was a real pig!
I LOVE our wonderful state of Oregon!
+Russell Flynn Thanks Russell!
Love this video. I have watched it probably 6 times and still keep coming back to it. Definitely inspirational. Ready to go Brown hunting.
Thanks Kyle, we appreciate the support man
people, don't ask where these fish are. Find out for yourself. Then maybe have some respect and keep it to yourself if you actually find out and go there.

Thanks Mark! Tight Lines
Thanks Jeff!
Tight lines
the last fish is awesome and the fight and the release are perfect
Thank you very much!
Simply brilliant. The quality of those fish truly is incredible. Keep at it!
RM Lytle Thank you!
Great angling meets great video production. Well done guys.
Thanks Ryan!
Your catching some beautiful brownies on the fly and no people about a bit like Northern Scotland just fab ,tight lines and keep up the good work 👍🎣🏴🇺🇸
Still one of the best streamer vids on UA-cam. It’s great to see other anglers catching big fish on foot. Cheers from Northern Michigan.
Appreciate that a lot Christiaan; thanks for watching!
This video just keeps getting better and better... my god, that last fish!
Thank you very much!
Amazing video great stuff!
Thanks WildFly
Well done guys! This is one of the best fly fishing shorts online. I have returned multiple times to watch this and share it with others I know. It's truly amazing! Some day I will make my way up towards Bend and check out the fly fishing and dog hunting.
+Delta Structures Thank you so much, we appreciate it!
Is there a more beautiful and varied fish on this planet?!
You're so lucky to live somewhere where you can target these monsters, not to mention have the time to do it. This makes me want to drop everything I'm doing right now and drive 4 1/2 hours down to East Lake from Portland (I caught an 8 pounder there on an articulated streamer I tied).

Thank you much Tim

Thank you Steve!
Thanks for sharing. I'm a beginning fly fisherman myself, but I see the time and effort you guys are putting in with logs and data tracking to be successful. That's great. Hope to find the free time one day to really get good at fly fishing. Thanks again. Post more!

Thanks Scott
This video is incredible! Love the jams too.
Really nice video guys, and respect for all the time you put in to this movie and how you explain your research about the fishing. Inspires me to travel up to the north of sweden to hunt down the bigger browns next fall. For now I'll have to deal with the small tricky forest strems down south. Tanks for the inspiration and a great movie!
Johan Egerhäll Thanks Johan; keep after it man!
Yeah baby I also hunt for big trout too, where you guys at?
I have never seen better casting, not in all my years. I'd love to know how you fellas got started. Dad? Grandpa?
Kraven Moorhead thanks man. My Dad is the man. Learned everything there is from him. Good guess :)
What a great movie :) Good editing and good catch ;)
Fantastic video. Great tunes. I can't wait to get out and slay. I never comment on videos but this one is epic.
Ian Cunningham Thanks Ian, we appreciate it man
Great shots of the follows and refusals of the big ones. I love sight fly fishing, good job.
Thank you Greg
That last brown is a spectacular specimen - a beast! cool clip!!
What’s the name of the fly being tied at the beginning?
Mike DeHart named it “the prowler” that being said it’s a glorified Wooley bugger on a 2/0 hook haha
Way to represent Oregon Fly Fisherman! The most die hard, passionate, obsessed anglers you'll find anywhere. Excellent film.
Thank you much, Brian; yes we are! Glad to know we aren't the only ones! Tight lines
Beautiful video! beautiful and huge brown trout...!!! i congratulate you from Argentina!!
Thank you much, Diego!
I moved to Bend years ago so i could do what you are doing right now! Life went sideways for me there and i ended up moving away, every weekend i get on youtube and search for videos that take me back there. You guys nailed it!
Thanks Jeramie, glad to here we did it justice!
Obsession, The best film going on. Great job guys.

+Charles Loftis Thank you Charles!

I never tire of watching this video. I've watched it numerous times over several years. One of the best fly fishing videos out there!
Nice job on the video , really enjoyed it . Love the BROWNS , keep them coming .
Thank you very much, Matt
Wow. I thought we in New Zealand had the biggest trophy fish. Great video guys!!
Thanks David! We'd love to go to NZ someday
Greetings from New Zealand. Great video guys and good to see you handling the fish with the respect they deserve. Maybe you guys could come to NZ and make some vids, we have lots of very nice trout fishing rivers and lakes here.
Thank you very much! New Zealand is most definitely on our hit list...cicadas!

HK/USP?
Delaware Pro like my German browns and German hand cannons ;)
What a great & inspirational film for any trout fisherman; myself included, thank you gentlemen!!

Great film! It was like watching a surf video for fly fishing!
+NORTHWEST LIFE Thank you!

So far the best video on UA-cam
MAN I loved it.
Just 1 request can u plz make a video on tying that streamer pattern.
There are 34 people on here with poor taste. I've watched this vid many times!
Have to admit....the kid knows his German fishing in Oregon.
What weight rod are you using and what size/length leader are you using with these big streamers?
Great footage and even better fishing, Well done! I am very impressed.
Luke Metherell Thanks Luke
Totally selling all dad's fishing poles 150 yard sale just fishing poles because I can't pull in a damn thing maybe they'll work better this way
Best video I've seen yet. What a monster at the end. Congrats!
Kelly Grogan Thanks Kelly
Great video, very jealous of the river systems in Oregon
Thanks man

Thank you; they are beautiful, no doubt!
GOOD LAWD that last one was a BEAST! nice film guys
I agree with you Man! Excellent work here my friend...

What gear are you using? 5 weight? Tippet lb test?
Nice work guys! Some real pigs in this video. And your double hall is on point!
the Brown at the end is epic.big brown with a hand gun on your side ...priceless
Great video!! Thank you for sharing your experience. Makes me just want to get out even more!! By the way, what setup did you use on the last monster? Thanks
Some sick loops there bud!
Opps I ment Eastern OR
Respect for how careful you are when releasing the catch.
This fantastic video captures the real essence of fly fishing for these gorgeous brown trout
At the end, the way he saunters of like a boss, it's almost like he's sayin, "yeah, you got me..."
Hey guys, Amazing video. Ya'll have figured out a science I only wish have begun to. I don't want to divulge ya'lls location but, I would love to have the same success. Wouldn't we all. Anyhow...this guys jealous and commend ya for your efforts definitely . Any easy way to BS with ya? Tight Lines!!
Hey Nathaniel, you can check us out on Facebook and Instagram @MountainMademedia! Thanks for your compliments!
This video is awesome I've watched it at least 10 times. And what's the song at the end
Great, very good Video. Only problem... have to Work now... instead of go Flyfishing.
Greats from Switzerland.
Pin Guin Thanks Pin!
That was outstanding, best fly fishing video I have watched in quite awhile, great job!
