I've seriously watched this Northern Natives series like, four, five times now. Incredible. This is the content that motivates anglers everywhere to get out; and those who do not fish to start.
I appreciate you not dropping the name because it could easily get over-run as it's so easy to get to and would not handle high pressure well. it's my go to water for stress relief a couple times a week because it's 30 minutes from my front door. in over 40 years in the area I released the only legit 20 pound plus bull i ever landed just up from where you put in. later in the summer i won't fish it because the amount of bear that gather for the kokanee and berries and i'm too old to try to outrun one., tight lines guys, glad you had fun.
Been following y’all’s channel since it was at 3k, now on my 7th watch of this episode just for the bully. The cinematography you produce is outstanding and the ability to build a narrative throughout is hands down some of the best on UA-cam. Excited to see what you come out with next!!
The emotional roller coaster of fishing is so beautifully portrayed through the videography, amazing work guys. It’s trips like this that will haunt your dreams for years to come. Enjoy
I just wanna say thank you, for making these amazing videos. You guys are bad ass and I hope one day we run into each other on the water. Don’t ever stop making this content! I know I speak for other fisherman and outdoorsman when I say I live for this content! 10/10
You find yoursleves on the Bitterroot, give me a shout. just an old retired dude but I spend most my time looking for whitefish for the smoker. when I get the hankering for boating I head over to Mussingbrod lake for grayling...just cuz it is non-intensive boating and Gryaling are kinda rare in the lower 48
don't know if it is legal these days but backinthe 60s guys would catch a bunch of small Cutts and tie their line to the Cutt and turn it loose. when a bigger fish took the bait head on, they would reef back on the handline and the Cutt's dorsal fins would stind up, basically "hooking" the big fish in the throat
From Wisconsin originally raised on brook trout. I've fished all Appalachia for brookies since I moved to Kentucky. Caught them from Maine to South Carolina I caught a few Bulls in the most southern part of their range in the jarbidge river in Northern Nevada. Also caught a couple West slopes in Oregon Now I want to move to Canada and finish the job.
You caught bull trout in lower 48? THat in it self is an accomplishment. Didn’t even know they had them in Nevada and I fished Oregon for a decade and only caught one and thought it was a brook trout at first. In Alaska we have dolly Varden. Basically a bull trout or very close to same
Yes sir Jarbidge river east fk. I had to report the catch to the state.They sent me some plaque to hang on the wall thanking me for providing them the info on my catch . That was back in 1999.Lol
@@MatanuskaHIGH There are bull trout in NW Montana. Kootenai River to be exact. Illegal to target bull trout there, but they will at times go after trout flies, or even the smaller trout on the end of your line. Had that happen to a friend - big bull came up and ate the smaller rainbow and the bull was landed on 5x tippet. I caught a small bull on a dry fly there once.
I just found your channel a week ago and I have watched nothing but since. Why this channel does t have 250k subs is beyond me. Production quality is leaps and bounds better than many more popular channels. It’s like Warren Miller movies but with fishing. Please keep up the content and the subs will come (maybe some gear oriented episodes would bring in more people?).
We caught Bull trout on Big Salmon Lake but we used 5" Daredevils with 2 spoons together for weight. Caught a bunch of them that way. S. Fork of Flathead River drainage.
Just stumbled across this video. Incredibly well done. This may be the best fishing video I've seen on youtube yet! Not only was there plenty of fantastic fishing footage, but you just seem like down to earth guys who love to hang out and fish. Loved it.
so so sick really getting into more backwater and new spots this fall, hopes of getting some good trout and into fly fishing more up here in PA, fish on brothas
This is sick. I like the big river streamer fishing...much cooler than nymphing a tributary in September that’s got 50 fish stacked in each pool on their spawning run. Good shit 🤘🏼
Epic video you know. It just keeps getting better. Very impressed with the fishing, filming, editing, and skill put into making this video possible. The scenery is better than 12/10, but the food was such a disappointment :) Thank god for Uber's out there though, they can make a killing. Keep grinding and making all of us jealous with the trips you are taking. Job well done my friend!
Well done gentlemen, great video. 10 weight for trout? They use 8 weights and less on atlantic salmon, lee wulff used even lighter.... I guess ya like to get em in asap.
Those bulls! Whoa! Alberta, right! LOL! Great video. What is that black reel? Is it the Ross Animas? Love it! I have an Evolution LTX that is my work horse. I've fished the Bow, Elbow, Highwood and Livingston. Looking forward to fishing some of those southern most rivers. :-)
Nice!! I know exactly where your at. I live here and still haven't had as much luck as you guys had on this day. Did you go above the dam as well or just below?
Gotta say man, you and most of the other dudes you've collaborated with have put out some amazing content, I fish a whole lot, probably close to 200 days a year for one type of fish or another, burnout is a real thing, and a messed up spine doesn't make it any easier to grind through, but you guys definitely have been able to motivate me to push through it and pursue my hobby/passion, that's worth more than I can say, thanks guys!
subscribed..nice work gentlemen. Your frame add ons..fore and aft seat bars..who makes? is that NRS gear? I have a salmon river frame from cambridge..would like to add on anchor system and rear seat like that.. info appreciated.
Biggest bull I've seen caught was 15 pounds..brought my girlfriend at the time out..n she smotherd my dreams and caught the fish of my dreams.. Mackenzie, British Columbia holds giants
They are only in 2 specific watersheds though if you want the ones that give you heart attacks wen your hooked up..all the other ones that have em in there hold 5lb max
@@ZILTOID1942 But theyre in BC... Poaching is poaching regardless of how you want to justify it by saying alberta has different regs.

@@ZILTOID1942 They said theyre going into BC for these videos in vid 1 so theyre using illegal setups and poaching which is irritating as hell when people congratulate them on what theyre doing.

matanuska high bull trout is a char - they are related. Bull trout get much larger, are broader, and don’t go to the sea. They look pretty similar and supposedly can interbreed (makes sense because of close relation).

One of the most Underrated channels. My favorite though. Vids are sick.
This series just keeps getting better! My favorite episode so far.. Can't believe you saw a 30in bull trout!
He caught a 30” bull trout…

This series feels like an origin story for this group
Keep coming back to this series. Never gets old. I hope you guys do a Canada trip again.

That's the fish of a lifetime and Scotty seems like he deserves all the hogs in the world.
Cheers boys 🍻
That small stream at the beginning with the cutty looks like paradise
Awesome fishing..awesome water..and a great crew of anglers. Doesn't get much better than that.
My favorite part was when you was cutting open that can with a pocket knife bandaid already on the thumb lol classic man move
Love the series
You deserve so many more subs bro....
Slow mo cutty dry fly crushes were sick!!!
Thoroughly enjoy everything you put out there and this series is the best yet. You do exceptional work with a camera. Can’t wait for more episodes 🤙
These are my home waters love to see it!
LeeRoy Jenkins comment made my day lol. love what you guys are doing!
The videos are absolutely great. I watch them over and over. Keep doing them. You guys are awesome!
I loved you guys from the start but the leeroy jenkins reference put us on a different level. Thumbs up. Let's do this.
This is freaking awesome! What a monster fish! Way to go! I’m so excited for next episode
Wild Fly Productions just introduced me to Futurebirds! Thank you, I'm new to fly fishing and your channel is awesome!
I’ve been binge watching since I found your channel. Great content! I’m running out of videos. Let’s Go!
my favorite channel now. Consuming all!!! keep it up guys

Bro Crazy Boys playing at 10:00… did not expect a Future Birds song on a wild fly vid. Especially from 2y ago lol, seen them 3x. Y’all are the shit

It’s on the list for sure!
HEAVY DUDE!!!!
I love that you toss em back but it kills me at the same time.
I’m hungry and watching y’all let dinner go breaks my heart.
Nix Adventures in most provinces u can’t keep bulls anywhere
Fished this river last summer you really show the best of it...cant wait for the next episode!
what river is this????
You fellas need to go back in late October and fish the mainstem. The Kokanee smash fest is the ultimate bull trout fishing you’ll ever experience.
yall know how to fish and got a good taste in music! caamp is so good! Awesome video guys.
Thanks dude! Check out the Futurebirds, I’ve been all over their music lately.
WildFlyProductions will doo!
Such an Incredible video. Love the cinematics
Thanks Dallas!
Agreed very talented!
Awesome series! New to fly fishing and this makes me want to get out and go fishing. I'm located in upstate SC.
Get after it my man
Keep doing work man. Video was incredible on so many levels
So good guys
what a great inspiration to fly fish and teach others...........the music was good who is it
This is fantastically high quality! I had to check sub count and I was expecting like a million at least!
Awesome video man loved it all! Keep up the great work and keep growing!
Thank you boss man
so so sick really getting into more backwater and new spots this fall, hopes of getting some good trout and into fly fishing more up here in PA, fish on brothas

boys hammering them on 20# test er what>? haha get them on the reel boys hahahaha
I'm curious what wt rod and reel you are using also do you use a floating or sinking line for your streamers.
so sick you got a second chance at that big bull!
It was a special one for sure
10:30 second time watching and noticed the NRS chaco straps hahaha
Nice!! I know exactly where your at. I live here and still haven't had as much luck as you guys had on this day. Did you go above the dam as well or just below?
That’s crazy that I know what river this is just by 1 mountain I saw.
Dislikes?? makes no sense. Love the content guys and the edits!
" I need a 10wt." Lol
LMAO 10 wt for 18 inch bull. I just caught 4 of them yesterday on a 5 foot light spinning rod 8 # test. Much heavier fish I might add.
Dude I catch bulls all the time on my 6 wt... 10 weight haha
everyone knows if the Trout is over 14nches you have to use blue water tippet.FACT. LOL
Caught a 33 incher out of that hole where you guys caught that first bull last summer
Wow awesome video you guys, and awesome channel just came across your videos, I myself have been trying to grow a flyfishing channel nice work guys.
Aweosme video!!!
Epic!
fire content
Is that Kenny powers making fun of the boat guide
Your one of my favourite channels on youtube! is this in British Columbia or Alberta?

Absolute great video and trip. Where are you fishing?

Not NRS Looks like Montana raft frames I have the rod dogs fly rod holders for my NRS frame
Best videography in the game. Are you slowing down the 4K 30 footage or are you recording in 1080 120 for your slomo?
For slomo, I shoot 60p or 120p. 24p for real time playback.
Throwing big junk for bullies, most excellent :-) no trout set on that big boy WHAM 💥
Somehow resisted the trout set 😂
Nothing quite like a big Bully eat!
The tug is the drug , resistant and you shall overcome 😈
that one guy sounds like kenny powers lmao
Been watching a few of your vids, I can unhear Adam as Kenny fkn Powers 😂😂😂
Top edits and content lads.
Super nice video! What type of boat do you guys use ?:)
what drainage is this I thought bull trout were only living in fractured creeks?
Definitely Canada Alberta? Saskatchewan? Watch the whole thing

Where did you guys stay ?
What’s the difference of a bull trout and dolly varden/ char?
matanuska high bull trout is a char - they are related. Bull trout get much larger, are broader, and don’t go to the sea. They look pretty similar and supposedly can interbreed (makes sense because of close relation).
what river is this ?
Would be more meaningful if you talked about the rigg and flies you were useing
needs a 10 weight bahhaha
Thanks for not revealing the location
5:05 that reel made my ears bleed, i want one
Just a FYI never cradle big fish by the belly,always under
The head, awesome video otherwise!
What river?
Any recommendations on a guide service?
