  • I got my buddy Gian to choose me 3 flies from ‪@tauporodtackle5497‬ and that's all I can fish with today. My challenge is to catch fish on all 3 patterns and nothing else!
    A good fun afternoon doing something a bit different..

    I always enjoy watching your videos and catch the big ones vicariously through you as the opportunity for me to get to New Zealand for those trophy fish is unattainable.
    I liked this video today as this is how I fish, I put random flies on my line and give it a go. It's good to see someone who does this for a profession do something like this, it shows you don't need to know everything about the water, the fish patterns to be successful.
    Other videos like this would be awesome.

I hope you do more of this as we all learn from another's experiences. Also, thank you for showing the So Dope product as it's not emphasized enough. I grew up in So Cal and am paying a price for countless years of sun damage. Great camera work and beautiful fish..........Deano

    Like these challenge style vids, that little bit of extra context really helps make a story. So how's about this for a challenge, Old School.... no weights/split shot team of wet flies (preferably spider patterns) like they would have done back in the Glen 20 years ago.......would also love to see you do some head waters/tiny stream bashing for small wildies but I'm guessing that would be a back country/summer thing for you guys.

    I'm planning on opening a shop here in Portglenone, County Antrim, Northern Ireland and seeing that shop layout has given me a few ideas as well as reinforcing a few thoughts I'd already had. Portglenone has the Bann River running straight through the middle of it so the fact there's no fishing gear shop here is, at least in my mind, bananas. Gotta have a couch, coffee available and a large screen tv with fishing vids on nonstop so people can even just come and hang at the shop. Another great vid bro, Keep'em coming!!

    Fun, thanks! We'll take your word that Gian accepted small fish counted (for you; huge for me). One drawback of catch-and-release is not knowing what the fish are actually eating. Are you ever able to sample their gut contents?

    • @TrippinOnTrout
      @TrippinOnTrout  Před 2 lety +1

      I think there is a device you can use to look at stomach contents from a live fish but that’s not something I ever want to do to a fish.
      Fish rarely key into one specific thing here and tend to be quite opportunistic so it’s more about a good presentation than an exact pattern

      @@TrippinOnTrout have you ever tried for sea runs? Around these parts they grow larger than stationary trout generally. Wonder if it's the same in NZ... Could be some real beasts out there.

      @@imraduin I haven't fished for them yet no bro but they are on my radar - time of year is key for sure and I believe there are some very big fish at the right time. I really should put some time into them..

      Hi, I think you miss the geography of the fisheries. Lake Taupo is a crater lake and in area is the size of Singapore Island, it has a catchment area of 3,500 sq km. the Rainbow trout are the descendent of the Pacific steelheads and have accustomed themselves to treating the lake as their biological sea home. These trout are all wild trout and run up the rivers that feed the lake to spawn. So actually they are very similar in the way the North Pacific trout behave when they run the Asian and North American rivers. We do have sea run trout that we fish for in both islands and we target these when we can, but the spots for these are not that well known, just as well. Look up the comparison of the trout and salmon species available to you in Scandinavia and the species of fish available to us in the Pacific and you will see why a lot of your countrymen journey around to this side of the world to experience some of the best angling experience in the world. Thats what I did 50 years ago, and stayed! Cheers mate. Harera

      @@pierevojzola9737 aye bro I've read up on all this stuff and when it comes to trout NZ is world class, I don't think anyone questions it. The difference however is the abundance of food in the ocean compared to a lake regardless of size. We have a very large lake in Sweden aswell (Lake Vänern, 10 times larger than Lake Taupo) that I live right next by that hold both salmon and trout that are purely freshwater like the trout of Lake Taupo, and even if they grow large, the sea run specimen grow even larger. Cheers!

      That river gets absolutely hammered in winter but there are a LOT of fish that move through so that’s it’s saving grace

    We could send you in a fly each that we tie up. Then get your viewers to vote on which ugliest fly you have to take out and catch a fish with. Maybe some rules from you like hook size etc.
