    Had the pleasure of hiring Clint as a guide back in 2016. Fishing the Squamish river should be a bucket list item for any angler.

    26:44 I see you had your bear spray mounted backwards in the holster, that's a really good idea! I had the safety come off bush wacking once, and got a soaker of bear spray to the gut! I am now more afraid of bear spray than bears! Lesson learned, mount the nozzle backwards!

    Although you guys mentioned the leader when it came to tippet it wasn't very specific. What are you using for tippet when targeting bigger bulls? 5x? 4x? I'd assume fluorocarbon? Cheers!

    • @danielmitchell1998
      @danielmitchell1998 Před 2 lety +4

      These are bull trout, Bull trout and Dolly Varden are two different species. The Dolly Varden found in Alaska, Salvelinus malma, were never present in the McCloud River. The fish likely viewed by Elda McCloud were in fact bull trout, Salvelinus confluentus. Bull trout and Dolly Varden were confused by anglers and biologists until 1978 when Ted Cavender of Ohio State University demonstrated that bull trout was a valid species separate from Dolly Varden. At that time the world record Dolly Varden (32 pounds) from Lake Pend Oreille, Idaho became a record “bull trout”.
      Basically inland forms of the Dolly Varden trout were reclassified as Salvelinus confluentus, retaining the common name bull trout
