All tight line mono, weighted flies.

Thanks bud! 😎👍

Thanks bud! Me and my bucket, we go everywhere together!

Absolutely! 😎👍

Absolutely. I guide out of The Fly Fishers Place in Sisters, OR. Give us a call and we can set something up. There is no guiding allowed on this particular river, but we have a ton of great options in the area.

That’s awesome! Thanks!

Leaky Classic 16s, steelheader frame. Perfect size for all my needs. I’ll do another raft breakdown as I’ve changed a few things. Also trying to do an “every day carry” section if I can just remember to do it 😂👍

Sadly, the 3rd fire of the year down there so far. I saw the lower river fire today, crazy how close it got to town.

Thanks! Always an adventure down there!

They’re thrivin! 🍺🐼

Glad you enjoyed it! The wildlife and scenery is amazing down there. Changes every day. Sometimes I’m too engaged watching that I forget to film it 😂👍

Always an amazing stretch of water, thanks for coming along! 😎👍

Absolutely 😎👍

@@TroutDirty I'm in Thurston. No biggie drive for " biggie " trout. Take care, be blessed.

Have fun out there!

Good times out there 😎👍

I really, really appreciate you saying that. I didn’t want to “make” content, just capture my journey and share it. Some days are good, some days are a grind. That’s just how this game works 😎👍

40-50% of the time I’m using jig streamers. Depending on the water type and time of year, swinging certain flies can be extremely effective 😎👍

Thanks bud! 😎👍

The Toad Hole was on! Lots of float time on this stretch, so it’s nice to get some fishin done!

It hasn’t even started yet bud! Anytime soon! 🦗

Thanks bud! I’ll be lapping that stretch for a few! 😎👍

Absolutely! Thanks bud! 😎👍

That’s sounds awesome! The floating and camping add a whole new dimension to the experience. Relaxing at the highest level! 😎👍

This is actually a 3 day, 2 night fly fishing trip that we guide in OR. We set up the camps, cook amazing food, and guide you into some of the best fishing we know. Give us a call or email at The Fly Fishers Place in Sisters, OR and we would love to tell you all about it! 🥳🐟

Thank YOU bud!! 😎👍

Thanks bud 👍 Not too bad, yet. I’ll be lapping that stretch for the next few months, so we’ll see 😂🕷️

All Cortland Euro Nymph Leader Material/CAMO 😎👍

Beautiful day out there! 😎👍

Thanks for coming along! 😎👍

They can get really big the further down you go! Check out minutes 6-8:30 on Return of the Redside. Super cool fish! 😎👍

Just go straight over it 😤 👍

Yeah bud! Thanks for watching! 😎👍

Thanks for coming, I’ll be down there a lot this year! 😎👍

Thanks bud! 15,16,17 and 3,4,5 are on the docket. Let’s go! 😎👍

Thanks for coming along! Yeah that rapid can definitely get you if you’re not ready for it. Congrats on conquering it in a fully loaded wooden boat! I’ll be running the gear boat for our overnight trips down there so should be more to come! 😎👍

Absolutely! Thank you bud!

Welcome to the rabbit hole! Blue pill, or red pill? Focus on learning that 5wt and the fundamentals. If you get bored, we can help line you out (pun intended) on tight line tactics, or as the kids say “euro nymphing”. It’s just one of the many styles of fly fishing with a totally different line and casting technique. Some people love it, some people hate it. Have fun and fish what works best for you. Welcome to the game! 😎👍

@@TroutDirty Yes I have researched euro nymphing I didn't realize that's what you were doing. It will be nice to finally start catching fish, I'm going to throw away all of my powerbait and rooster tail spinners! 😆 Cheers, thanks for getting back 🤙🏼

Fly fishing can run circles around gear fishing if done correctly, plus it’s just fun. The tactics I’ve developed have fundamentals in Euro, but everyone in different water types and regions develops their own style. I have no idea what I do now, it’s definitely not Euro, but it’s fun, effective and ethical, so I’m good. Have fun out there! 😎👍

@@TroutDirty I see you've got a shop in Sisters I'll have to pop in sometime and say hello. Thanks again for your help and advice.

😎👍

Yes sir! I appreciate that 😂👉🐟

Thanks bud! Pretty sweet Monday. Pretty sweet yesterday too! 😎🎉🐟

This day was a Diamondback Ideal Nymph 10’10” 4wt, Sage ESN reel and all Cortland lines 😎👍

Heal up and hope to see you soon bud! 🎉🐟

I live in the Portland area

Check the regulations and head to Blue Lake or the Sandy River 👍

Nice day on the river?

😎👍

Hey thanks, very much appreciated! It’s such a great river and float. Hope it rebounds and stays healthy 😎👍

Hey thanks bud! Pretty fun day 😎👍

We definitely love it out there and it’s really cleaning up. Coming back strong and natural, albeit slowly. The construction debris is an interesting addition… 🤠👍

Hey thanks! It’s actually both, depends on the season and water type your fishing there. Typically more natural stuff though. Swing by the shop and we will show you our favorites! 😎👍

Absolutely! 😎👍

Thanks bud! Appreciate you. 😎👍

That’s awesome! I carry the small Fishpond Pio Pod, great for stashing little bits! The fish karma rewards are pretty good! 😎👍

Thanks bud! Lots of good fish round here! 🤠👍

Absolutely! 😎👍
