We're headed to Costa Rica October 27th - November 3rd. We have 3 slots open. This a combination Tarpon/Machaca trip with 3 days of tarpon fishing in Barra Colorado and 2 days float fishing for machaca.

Guides Day Off: Rethinking The San Juan River
zhlédnutí 751Před měsícem
The San Juan River suffers from an identity crisis. Often described as an over crowded hell hole akin to a Black Friday TV sale at Walmart with lazy fish and impossibly small flies. But there is another San Juan. Rethink. This river is what you make it. We love the San Juan here at About Trout and try to fish it as much as we can on our days off. It is truly one of the best kept secrets in stre...
Northern California Recap

Recently I traveled to Northern California to give our presentation "A Guides Approach to the Water." In between clubs, I had the opportunity to fish with some friends and dive deeper into what Northern California has to offer the fly angler.

Fly Fishing for Bass: The Float and Fly Rig
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed 2 měsíci
While it is About Trout, I had the opportunity to fish some bass in Northern California recently. Growing up, I used to fly fish for bass a lot. It has become a rarity and the float and fly rig was new to me. I hope it works for you on your local still water. Rig: 12" 2Olb From fly line Barrel swivel 12" 12lb to a "Jaydacator" From Jaydacator 12" 10lb test to barrel swivel From swivel to fly 8l...

Do THIS Before Your Next Saltwater Fly Fishing Trip
If you are looking at buying these things for your boat, DON'T!! I put these things on my brand new aluminum trailer to hold my boat, thinking that all f the "reviews" were good. After the VERY FIRST trip to the water, the next time out they became hard to release. I then took them off, sprayed them inside with corrosion X, lithium grease and even MAX WAX!! They made three trips to the water, after the third trip I had to cut the straps with my knife to release my boat from the trailer. I currently have two giant chunks of rusted together garbage to show for my money. DO NOT BUY, unless you like throwing your money away.
Got one. Do you need one? Nope. The master is a great vise though
Nice tie!
Looks kinda like a Johnny flash.
I was waiting for Kool-Aid Man to bust though the wall behind you. It looks like he has busted though a few times already. 🤣I am impressed you have you used those boots for so long and that they have help up, they looked to be questionable durability wise when they came out. Thanks.
😂
Thanks for the video. Quick question.. Should the midge tubing match the thread color (olive thread and olive midge tubing)? If so, do you use clear tubing for your gray Big Macs?? Thanks again man, your videos are awesome!
It definitely doesn’t have to. I like color combos like red over gray or brown over olive. Happy tying.
Enjoy James☕️☕️
Nice☕️☕️
I've tied Flys like this and I think it's not a effective pattern at all ok...........
Have you tried fishing it better?
I find that such a weird concept to be catching trout in a tropical jungle
It’s surreal. Lol life finds a way.
Thank you, James, for this and all the other great stuff you post on CZcams and your blog. I love this fly, which I assume you Euro nymph. Could you tell me what your current preferred leader configuration is when Euro nymphing the San Juan?
Appreciate the kind words and support. I just run straight 30ft of bicolor 4x to a ring.
Awesome James!!!
Dude!!! Sick
Hell yea
New fly tier here. Appreciate the down and dirty. One question: the Antron, is it Antron dubbing or cords? Thanks in advance!
Thanks for checking out the channel! Antron dubbing
Use a version of this technique with crawfish flies under a bobber for small streams and smallmouth. Downstream mends and jerks to give the flu some action. The takes are so aggressive. Great way to fish.
Awesome!
Te salut .imi place ca esti tinar dar gindesti ceea ce faci ,adica totul are logica .O zi buna
For sure
Love it, James! 👏🏼
Thanks guys!
Now that we've got that out of the way, how's about a chubby? No fancy hackle needed. Much love, habibi.
Mashallah
Thanks James, I love it, the Ant is soooooo over looked but is amazing 😉
Thank you! Hope you stick a bunch of fish on it.
@@AboutTrout absolutely 😉☕️☕️
hell yea
Thank you, James!! Looking forward to fishing with ya again.
Can’t wait.
The guide on the Colorado River, Vermilion Cliffs / Lee's Ferry had me fishing with hoppers, about 20-years ago. I never even seen a grasshopper that trip, but, dry fly fishing is so much fun. Nice ant pattern, thanks for sharing. I'd fish that ant on the San Juan. I had a good time fishing a 'snowfly' hatch on the shallow water on the San Juan, above Texas Hole. Here is a dry fly pattern that I recently thought-up: Size 18 to 22 Tiemco 100bl, Veevus 8/0, color of your choice. Metz #1 neck hackle of your choice. Tail - tip fibers / barbules of medium to large neck hackle. Dubbing - down (webby) material from the same feather (I don't use dubbing wax), a bit of thread wraps to enhance the dubbing. Skip the actual wings, using the most delicate hackle pliers that they make, wrap a proportionally-appropriate hackle, from the same neck cape, in front. I try to get the hackle's natural curve to point the eye of the hook, not the hook-point. Finish the fly by tying the head with one or two half-hitches. Aside from the thread, the entire fly is from the same neck cape. The fly has a really toned-down appearance, not flashy. A 'generic' dry fly. I fish it with Gink floatant.
Awesome!! Thanks 🎣🎣🎣
😊
Nice presentation.Can you tell me what light that is in the background.Thank You
Not exactly sure. Just a standard desk lamp.
Is it Fished during the annual big ant drop on the Juan? It’s faster than Eagan’s bionic if you’re not talking.
This is a little smaller than I like to fish for the ant fall. I fish this on the Juan whenever I see heads but it’s also a great all around dry.
Great review! I bought the P-2300 (black version) back in Nov so have been tying on it for about 8 months and absolutely love it! I was a Regal guy for over 30 years before getting the Presentation and now I use the Presentation at least 75% of the time. I still like the Regal Medallion for tying certain patterns where I don't need rotary.
Congratulations on the purchase! It is truly an awesome vise. At the time of this video I don’t think they had a black version yet or I would have gotten it. It’s crazy it’s not more popular. Really comfortable to tie on.
@@AboutTrout Thanks! Definitely the most comfortable vise I've ever tyed on. One thing to note about the P2000 is that it is the only vise in the renzetti line-up which you can't get a crank handle for. They're available for the Traveler series, the P3300/4000, and the Master, but not this one. I emailed renzetti about this earlier this year and they did say that a crank handle for the P2000 is in the works. So hopefully they'll come out with one soon. I'll definitely buy it.
Nothing beats that type of fishing
Creek fishing is always a great time!
I’m a stick that’s what everybody calls me thanks about trout not only a stick I’m a sick stick
Confluence Outfitters guides are outstanding! Best fishing experience of my life was with Colin on Fall River a couple weeks ago. He's an excellent guide and teacher. Now if we could just get the temperatures in NorCal to go back to something resembling normality, I could go fishing again!
Colin is a stud!
@@AboutTrout You should see the gorgeous panoramic photo he took of me fishing that day. I was staying up there with Val Atkinson and HE said it was a great photo. I had an art print made and hung it in my recording studio. I probably should send him more tip money! Seriously, that picture means a lot to me. Not just a pedestrian effort.
Some big fish, especially that rainbow.
People are haters because they go out and do the same thing over and over. They wonder why others are doing the same and instead of trying something different like your team does, they whine and complain about crowds and "how it used to be." That's why you guys are the only ones I recommend as guides on the Juan.
Give the San Juan some gravel. That way the fish (hybridized native Colorado River cutthroat transitioning to more pure cutthroat) can build reeds, and to support a caddis or stonefly hatch. I wish I was there; personally, the three-hours-away drive has essentially morphed into two-decades-past.
Wow German browns!!
Where’s the tenkara footage?
Probably from the beginning of the quality water to Texas Hole? Tenkara flies, or rods, or both? My question is who is still fishing with yarn egg patterns that essentially resemble Pautzkies Salmon eggs? Me, I just seem to foul-hook them using #20 disco midges.
Every fish in this video was taken on a streamer or a dry. Eggs work well on the Juan.
I need more☕️☕️🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for checking it out!
B roll on point
Appreciate you
Nice to see an out of stater showcasing the natural beauty California still has. Getting tired of everyone shitting on our state although I will agree California does have its problems and crappy government but California is not just 1 big LA or SF
California is incredible! It’s also forever stamped on my passport. I was born there lol.
Making me homesick!
oh yeah!!
Let’s go! Now on to the Truckee…?
Norcal baby! Hope all is well brother,
Love it, thanks☕️☕️
I can attest to the "any time, anywhere under any conditions." If Pop's reads this post he will likely know who I am....he knows what a disciple I am. I cannot tell you how many thousands of fish I have caught on this fly, bull bream, chinquapin bream, crappie, bass, catfish, grass carp, carp, speckled trout, reds, browns, cutts, bows, and even turtles. When I say thousands, I mean thousands. I live in Louisiana and do a lot of panfishing and make trips out west, as well, to Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico. Every body of water I have fished I have hammered the fish on this fly. If you are familiar with Silvercreek in Picabo, Idaho, then you know how challenging it is. Fishing with a guide, I as catching a few small browns and bows then switched myself over to the Pop's Brown Bugger and it was almost every throw. The guide, who was working with my wife, came running down the river bank to see what I had on....he even fell down he was so excited. He asked for one and I handed him 4 or 5. Later that evening, down by the footbridge where the monster browns hang out, I landed a rainbow that he said was the biggest bow he has seen come off out of Silvercreek. I caught him on the Pop's Bugger. Later that evening the guide called me and invited my on a free trip with him to The Big Lost. He was made a believer.
Nicolas Cage also prefers a waist pack. Thanks for the review.
Big facts!
Bass on Morgan James....lets go!!!
Let’s do it!
Whaaaaaaaat? I didn’t know you knew fly fishing for bass! 😂😎
Gotta keep things mysterious
@@AboutTrout that’s good man! Glad to see you out there enjoying yourself 🎣
I'm quite sure a size 16 or 18 would be great. Thank you. Just curious though did you mean to say size 18 as is shown in the materials list.
I meant to say 18. FM hooks in this model run a tad big
@@AboutTrout Thank you. I've been using Hanak hooks, then I started using FullingMill hooks. I measured and found that besides the bigger hook gap of the FullingMill 5125, the only difference between the Hanak H450BL and FM5125 is the hook length. So, a Hanak H450BL #14 is essentially equal to a FullingMill FM5125 #16 (besides the hook gap).
Awesome video, Ima try this on my lake! I seen James on the Juan and he may think you’re his friend “Chris,” but he is cool guy and he is NOT a jerk on the water lol.
😂😂😂😂
Lots of bass fishermen use Thill pro series slip unweighted float with adjustable bobber stops. I bet your set-up could be used on a spinning rod too.
To my knowledge it was first done with conventional and adapted to fly. The conventional bass world is always on the cutting edge.
