GIANT Trout Fishing in TINY MOUNTAIN LAKE!!! (Catch & Cook)
Спорт
I return to a tiny mountain lake to go Giant Trout fishing! We were fishing for Trout in the last episode and finished our trout catch & cook at this small alpine pond where we discovered a population of really big Trout!

I've lived in Florida my whole life and don't get me wrong, the fishing is incredible... The bass are huge and there's an absolute abundance of species to go for on any given day but THIS... This is badass. This is exactly what I thought fishing was supposed to be like when I was a kid. Out in nature... In the woods... Not behind people's houses in gated communities. Love the video man I needed this.

Then go into the fking woods then! Find a canal or lake or go to the Fking River! Tf you talking about "behind people houses"? Yea, you CAN fish those spots, but don't make it 100% of what you fish. You choose where you fish. When I was 12-15 me and my friends would ride our bikes 20 miles a day going to different canals Lakes to the river growing up in Central Florida

@@paulleonard7038 I live in south Florida where if you want big bass you go to where the no fishing signs are OR north to…. You guessed it, CF. My comment wasn’t me complaining, I’m in shock at how beautiful those spots are, and it’s what I imagined where I’d fish when I was a kid. Florida has beautiful spots but all are quite far from where I live. The Everglades is nice but the bass fishing isn’t anywhere near as great as gated community ponds or up north like stick marsh/ central Florida. And I’ll be damned if you can find me a mountain lake in the middle of Miami 🤣

That is true dedication! Love your videos. I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one that struggles while fly-fishing in tight spots. Keep Entertaining Us with you Amazing Videos in Nature because not everyone Gets this chance to Hike and camping love From India🥰🥰🥰
I usually would attempt a bow and arrow cast when surrounded by trees like that! It can be super helpful for casting if you don’t have many other options! Basically you hold the fly in one hand and pull it back until the rod bends and let go so the fly shoots out across the water! You can also attempt to jig the fly rod a bit to make it look like the fly is struggling on the top water which really attracts the trout as well! Great video man!
Coment constantly on this channel and all i read is people who are so thankful and it warms my heart man! You do a great thing!
i love how this channel grew big, i remember when i subscribe when he only had 40k, and now 500k, cant wait to see that million, love your channel leif you inspired me to fish more and do sort of catch and cooks at home, seriously this is my favorite fishing channel

Love watching these mountain fishing videos👌🏾
Love your videos. I live vicariously sometimes through your videos. Don't get me wrong I explore as much as I can with my 3 children but watching these videos takes me back to yesteryear. Sidenote would love a property update video.
When I picture heaven I don't see clouds and harps, I see this. My father was on a lot of fishing shows in the 70s. He eventually ran Good Hope Cannery Lodge, for a while. I spent my whole childhood in the bush, at lakes, at rivers or on the ocean. There is no more peaceful place you can be. I don't share locations of quiet dream spots, like this perfect place you have found. I actually get quite angry, and disappointed, whenever magazines list "secret" fishing spots. Seriously, why send an invitation to every nitwit with a stereo and 5 idiot friends? These precious places are for those who are committed to finding them, appreciating them and protecting them. Thank you for giving me 33 perfect minutes.
Welcome Back. And with another great adventure. Congratulations on all of the homestead updates. Between the homestead, the property and adventuring I know your busy. Thanks for all the effort 🤟🏼

When you get the fly stuck in trees close by, try pulling the line through until the fly is at the tip of the pole then you can usually just pick off the fly without straining the line. Awesome video, what a battle!

Edit: #1 We tried to use that net on Sockey in Alaska. Seemed like a good idea at the time cuz it fits in a suitcase. #2 That fish didn't revive due to sediment in its gills from the lake bottom. Not much you can do about that.

I’ve been bingeing on your videos and yesterday was stocking day here in CT. This afternoon I landed a 14” splake on a black and green split tail trout magnet and had my first ever catch and cook. I did filet and cook it at home but I’ll work my way to lakeside in time. Thanks for the inspiration!
As I have waited Leif, and I'll finally be able to watch this episode of your mountain adventures. Much love from Sweden my friend. You are so appreciated bro!

Been watching your videos with my 15 y.o. son. We really enjoy your videos. Two things; I'd get your bobber in the water asap. I'd have my line in the water within a minute of my backpack hitting the ground. Attach a bell, then set up camp. Also, use live bait. You will never say "follow follow follow" with live bait. Most trout in those waters have never seen a lure, let alone a bullet. They're attracted by the flash, then hesitate. Live bait never fails. Keep the videos coming. Nice work!
I really love your videos, always get me through harder times.

I’m sure that really ruined your life dawg, did you recover over the 9 months since u have seen this?
This is my favorite outings of yours of all times. Fly Fishing is an incredible journey that will leave any angler fulfilled at the end of the day. Wether they catch a trout or not. Fly Fishing truly is a precious and priceless thing. Words spoken by Fly fishing legend himself… John D. Voelker “Fly-fishing for wild trout on quiet waters must be one of the toughest and craziest ways to catch fish ever invented by man, as well as among the most frustrating and humiliating.”
I’m an alpine lake fly fisherman in the Northwest and I truly appreciate that you don’t share locations while engaging viewers. This is the right balance and I appreciate your ethic.
Wonderful fish catch and cook! Thanks for sharing your adventure!
I haven't been fishing in so long! seeing your videos make me feel almost excited as you are !
Here's a suggestion for you when you're in an area where there's all kinds of vegetation like that, you need to learn how to do a roll cast, I use it all the time whenever I fish Mountain lakes like this where there's lots of vegetation around! 👍

As a young person just now getting into fly fishing I really appreciate your fly fishing videos I have never seen someone make videos with your type of signature before
Really missed this. I got super exited when i saw that you had posted a video! Sadly we dont have this type of nature here in denmark, but i still enjoy your tips.
Must be spring-fed being that clear. Amazing little lake, like from a dream.
I dont know how you do it but your lucky with catching amazing fish footage. please always more,love seeing the fish up close
just a litle tip, when fly fishing on still waters and there are bugs hatching try getteing the fly far out and moving the fly as litle as possible (like bobber fishing) because the truot will often check out the fly then come back again a couple of minutes later to eat it😉 (love and appreciate your videos from norway🇧🇻)
Best episode so far ! Worth the wait! Try some roll cast in that difficult situation! Its simple and effective
To be honest, we should thank you for how your videos influenced us and changed our lives for the good.✌✌
LOVE the way you make use of nature, love the tips im from South Africa and do a lot of fishing. Just started my channel also
My son and I have been waiting a new video from you. It made ou Sunday much better, specially the part the snake gets close to you to check you out. So cool! Thank you for your video.
Hard to imagine a more beautiful place like that in this video. Pure bliss and with water lilies too! Also you have plenty of one of the healthiest fruit you can eat: blueberries.
USE TOP WATER BAIT! get a jitterbug. If the trout are jumping out of the water after your bobber they’d hit the top water bait like a dream
Your enthusiasm is amazing. I love how distracted you get!
Your over exuberance is almost freightening. I hope you stay safe in your fishing/hiking expeditions
Oh man, that second fish! I always check my knot after every fish, retie them if needed. Lowers the chance of losing the next fish and my fly 😂. Great video as always!
