In those small creeks fly rods are obsolete as there is no need to cast when a creek is 10 feet wide and the fly line spooks fish. Spin rods with a fly and bobber or jig is more productive and less frustrating in my experience
My favorite style of fishing! Did you make that staff, as that has become an essential part of my gear? I have an old hiking stick reinforced at the tip with some seine twine and epoxy to keep it from splitting. Headed back up there in two weeks.
Really enjoyed this as I do the same. Was up in early June, still some good runoff but found some nice fish in one of those small creeks. I was fishing my 3 wt. and just tight lining.one small weighted nymph. Had a blast and only saw one couple walking by…..the way I look at it is, if you catch fish, that’s the bonus, but if not, the scenery and solitude make up for it !

What do you think is one of the best brook trout creeks in that area
Great video of lovely gin clear water and that lab is the perfect mate to have out there.
looks like Rock Creek
Blame the dog, then catch a fish! Good tactic 🙂

Nice wooden wading staff. Quiet unlike metal. Make and model please. Thanks
To clarify, were you using an 8'-6" 4wt? The video description says 7'-6" 3wt. Just curious. Thx.
God’s country. It doesn’t get any better.
Your lab appears to be a pescatarian😂😂😂

Would you use shorts instead of pants?
Beautiful. Relaxing.
