Video

I was just watching some of your older black streamers for coho. And you got a Atlantic in one... I didn't think it looked like you were flossing those ... Please keep your streamer videos 🙏 i appreciate them greatly. I love tying my own and i plan to tie a few of the black with green eyes that you posted.

Do you ever see them in the river as early as mid August?

Hi I live in Ireland, would it be possible to buy some cured bait from you, I can’t get it here

Nice review! It's just too bad about SmithFly. They really blew a potentially good brand. Here's my honest review / cautionary tale of our recent SmithFly ordeal: -They hit our card for the full amount when we ordered. Not insignificant on $5k boat and when the stated 4-6 week lead time turned out to be 4-6 months. We were lied to numerous times about the status of our order. -The boat we finally received 6+ months later arrived with visible defects. Ethan admitted to taking manufacturing shortcuts. He told me to fix it myself and that he will replace it when he can. That was almost 7 months ago. Or I could pay another $500 to ship it back to him to be repaired. Why have a Warranty at all? -He never shipped the accessory order I placed and refuses to refund it. It's been almost a year and I'm out $325. Not sure what you call that where you are from?

Great fly

Make some more videos damnit fray!

do you fish earlier in the run(when roughly was this) and closer to the mouth of the river? Fishing closer to tippy on manistee around the bend and below dam wondering if they would still hit so we dont have to just floss

Ive watched this about 100 times and just realized how familiar that spot looked.. And then realized that it was my group that showed up behind you guys in the middle of the video! Haha. That stretch was hot hot hot that day! Hopefully see you out there again.

Make more videos ❤

Sorry to see you got out of making videos! I enjoyed everything you shared. What rod/reel were you using here?

Videos are so badass!!!!

Sounds like the wife put a kaput to your dream what most people don't do is invest their money wisely which turns into a very lack of free time and they wake up at 65 and realize they ain't got a pot to piss in do what you must

Good

What size bead to hook ratio

Hahaha I just found this video today and it's hilarious 😂😂 so cool to see the progress of your channel! Keep it up! I just got my first pin rod and can't wait to try it on the Vedder river in Canada

This looks like the creek in my backyard. R u on Grand Island

The dollar store here has a bunch of different thundersticks what kind do I buy the regular one the deep jr or what

Where at in michigan? Im in barry county michigan. I find a few thousand every year and everyone i no if they find 30 a year thats a good amount for them im not exaggerating i have photos to prove it but what im saying is i find them by the hundreds in cherry trees that have autumn olive bushes in the cherry woods and locust trees are also mixed in like u said i do alot of walking dont get me wrong im spending 3 4 5 6 hours everytime i go out but its worth it just figured id guve u a little tip idk if they have alot of cherry trees like that up north tho there not cherry trees that produce actual cherrys but its the cherry tree that has the darker rough looking bark good luck take a look at my little video I posted on my channel and the photo I have on my background

For all you snaggers....go to H!

what river?

Hello! I hunt in Ohio, but wanted to visit some family near the northern glove to do some hunting. Where are you from in Michigan? I get scared going that far north and everything will be different in terms of my normal hunting ecosystem!

Way to use a center pin with a drag dude. So many losers would rather fluff off 3 fish to every one they land without a proper drag. Centerpins and kings go good with a hefty ,smooth drag!

Wish you wouldn’t name the stream, but nice video.

Thanks for the great work, and information. Best wishes on your future endeavors …

Hey man I hope you're doing well and having success on the things that you're putting your efforts towards! I was wondering why your second to last video isnt up anymore. I think that was a really good video and a good way to send off the channel 😢

In small streams like that, using a small jig and twitching it in front of the salmon will more than likely agitate it to bite. In my experience all salmon will bite a bright jig in front of them, being on the Pacific coast.

I live in Southwest Michigan the county of Ottawa. Every year here is scarce and a very hard hunt. If we end up with a dozen for the entire season, we feel satisfied. Because there is years that we only find a couple. We never get the baskets full like some places I’ve seen in Michigan.

Sounds to me like your identifying ashtrays? I am definitely not a tree expert either. But the ash tree I think of as poplars tree. And they have grooved gray bark at the bottom, which turns smooth, going up and pure white. Very tall, majestic trees.

3:40-3:45 what are those green plants called again? Mapples

morels popping up, in Menominee, Mi, 5/3/24

Missing your videos boss hopefully some good spring bobber downs coming soon

Thanks for the information 👍

Great job, can you mention the location please?

Best center pin fisherman on CZcams

So as a fisherman who was told to preserve. We massage the eggs out. Throw the fish back in for another year. You also don’t do more than one.

Dont they die easy in the hot water? They cant be released..

Fray, who makes the artic spinner and have you ever tried the spinner on the center pin? You can by take a float and move it up to 4 feet or how ever deep and swing your spinner as the float keeps it off the bottom!

If you can tie a fly that can compete with the Niko hellgrammite, you will have the best small mouth fly.

What rod and reel do you use for the spinner and which spinner color is it?

Are you fishing a river ot creek inlet?

Thanks for da info

Lmao we getting close to that season I always get the pre season mushroom fever I wish they’d just b up right now I’m so ready

Thanks for making this!

Catching big King's on the fly in a small river would be awesome! " Bucketlist " proper flyfishing not flossing/ snatching 👊

These eggs in my country would cost couple hundred dollars .He just using it for a bait lol

Ugh I wish you guys would just show a list of tying materials rather then talk about what using ugh

Have you been back?

My ratio of bite to snag is 25% bite but Im using 4 egg bags. The bigger chunks of skein might help with that and save my arm from all that destruction and spooking the fish.

Thank you Fish Fray for videos! Learned a lot from you. Been in Michigan 13 years and fishing took me on journey. Maybe one I’ll see you on the waters. Congrats on degrees and good luck on career! Nice way to end it. I’m a quiet guy too but I love sharing my fishing knowledge. Salute!

i cut the membrane with scissors then put it in spawn bags. i cover with borox detergent over night first. store in freezer and have caught fish on these 2 and 3 years later.
