I'm new to urban fishing. Live in the East Valley. Not sure how to get started. Love the video.
Appreciate the watch and comment. East Valley is a good place to be... The SRP canals are full of bass, carp, and Tilapia (as well as other species), but those three are the most consistent with flies and are a blast. You can fish any canals that aren't fenced in and/or don't say "no trespassing". You often times will need to park on a side street or at a park close to the canals, and then just walk the canals and fish. The city ponds are also stocked with fish, though I generally like to fish the canals more (they are kind of like a river). Check out this video for some gear, line, flies, and technique for fly fishing for grass carp. 👉czcams.com/video/IMSOS_XYSiM/video.html
New sub, you got tons of helpful tips!
@@Peeze16 hey, welcome aboard! Thanks for watching, subbing, and commenting! I hope you like fly fishing content too, because I have a lot of it coming up haha! Tight lines! 🤙🤙✌️🎣
Kevin, I saw you catch 2 sockeyes in the mouth without flossing them. Can you confirm that you can catch them with normal flyfishing methods without glorified snagging or what the locals call lining?
I've watched sockeye snap at Russian River flies & Egg Sucking Leech Patterns, and know of plenty of people that catch them with plugs (a type of lure that imitates bait fish, among other things). While a traditional fly style (like drifting under an indicator) likely won't catch them, swinging and popping streamers can certainly induce them to strike out of annoyance or in defense. They are not eating when moving up the rivers, but they definitely will strike a fly to get it out of their way. 🤙🤙✌️🎣
@@KevinRapkochFishing I forgot to say... Thank you so much for the video!

Yeah, that was definitely my favorite fish of the day... So acrobatic! 🤙✌️🎣

Thanks for watching! If you're new to the channel, check out my other vids... I fish for everything! 🤙✌️🎣
How do you find these canals? How do you know which ones allow fishing? Great video.
I just check Google Maps and drive to different areas to check out the canals. The canals will have signs saying if you can't fish them or "no trespassing"... If there are no signs, I fish away. 🤙✌️🎣
Haha! That first fish was great! Yeah, it sucks whhen we get tangled up in the fly line, but does make for great viewing! Good stuff Kevin. 😎

I’m recently learning to fly fish in AZ! so cool seeing you just go out and get it on whatever kind of water you can find, definitely gonna be exploring some more areas around Tempe and phx!
Excellent, man! The more diversity of species and waters you fish, the faster your skills will grow and the better you'll be at fly fishing. The bass and carp in the canals are a blast to get after with the fly rod. Thanks for watching and commenting... Tight lines! 🤙✌️🎣

Nice stuff for sure. I live in Phoenix, but have not had that kind of luck throwing flies for carp in the Canada. I have had luck at the research parks and the lower salt.
The carp in the Salt River can get massive, so that's awesome that you've caught them there. It takes some practice getting the carp down in the canals, but once you do, they are so plentiful that it can make for some super fun days of fishing. Tight lines and thanks for watching and dropping a comment! 🤙✌️🎣
@KevinRapkochFishing I have no issue with the carp and Sonoran sucker's but these canal carp have me frustrated lol. I have been using some flies I tied which mimic a piece of corn.
@@tandtoutdoors5154 very cool. I think you'll get it done with those flies. I've had success with fake bread flies for grass carp, but the fly I've caught the most on (20+ grass carp) is a foam black cicada dry fly 🤙🤙✌️🎣
Congrats on your first dry fly common carp! Cool to see them cruising the top before you got them too 👊🎣🔥
Yo Kev! Yeah man, I've been trying to catch a common on top for about a year now... I've had some hits, but never could connect until this video! Thanks for watching and commenting, brother... Tight lines!! 🤙✌️🎣
Awesome & yet again you've shattered the mystique about fly fishing,not always pristine waters for trout,no so great fly fishing can be found in many different places & truly simplifies it,1 rod/reel,leader,tippet,net & box of simple flies & you have a fun day in store,tight lines 🤙
Absolutely. Don't get me wrong, nothing better than trout fishing in beautiful rivers & creeks ... But man, being able to catch cool and big fish on dry flies pretty much in my backyard is always fun! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment! 🙂✌️🎣
That was wild 😅 awesome catches!
🤙🤙✌️🎣
That spin move to try to get untangled was EPIC! 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 my days of playing hoops came back to me quick!
Sick Kevin! The commons fight super hard haha just got my fly rod back ready to start throwin some flies again, you can here cicadas buzzin out there now
Nice man! I went out yesterday... Caught a BIG Common, pretty epic battle to the net! The bite was tough and it was hot as heck, but it felt good getting a big one to the net! 🤙🤙✌️🎣

Yeah, that grayling was a cool way to end the day. Hope your weekend is going well! 🙂🙂✌️🎣
Lots of catches at a beautiful creek! The second trout catch was my favorite he was so acrobatic and tough, you’ll get that big one next time Kev 👊🎣💪🔥

Hey thanks! Yeah, definitely... Was 50 yards away from a black bear that swiped a salmon from a dude's stringer once; came within 20 yards of a Grizzly Bear last year; and have had a few other close encounters, but nothing too crazy! 🤙✌️🎣
3wt is lots of fun in that creek.
Oh I'm sure... Perfect 3wt creek. I only have suitcase room for my 8 (salmon) and 6wt (bigger trout) when I come to Alaska, but I would have loved to have my 3wt on me. Thanks for watching! 🤙🤙✌️🎣

Buddy that was such an awesome session! I can feel your pain losing 2 big fish in that one area, I was rooting for you dude! Had to laugh at the singing part😂. Dude you make fly fishing look easy! I just caught 3 stripers 2 days ago on the fly for the first time. Definitely hooked now!
