I know Tristan has said he doesn't consider himself a filmmaker, but the production value of this video is pretty out of this world.
Thanks Andrew 👍
I like that you said "when I lose this fly". I lose at least 2 every time I fish.
Excellent Tristan; I'm thrilled having you bringing these beautiful backwoods streams &fish into my life! I cannot.
Thank you!
This is probably the purest kind of fishing. Really, really enjoy watching your videos, especially for all the wonderful locations. Unfortunately where i live here in Italy there are no good spots near me.
Ah, what amazing and beautiful streams you find! Thank you for sharing yet another excellent video!
I'm spoiled, for sure!
Well, a 40-minute hike in weeds out about 95% or more of the competition. Beautiful stream, and I'd be happy to settle for that catch rate of pretty nice-sized trout.
Thanks for toughing it out Tristan and bringing us great scenery and fun fishing!
Thanks Robin!
Beautiful stream beautiful fish excellent!
I fly-fishing for year's,, but this looks good on native trout rivers,
Wonderful video and adventure. Thanks for taking us along!
Thanks for watching!
I’d call that a good day! I’d love to just be there, the fishing is a bonus!
Beautiful back country stream and cutthroat trout . I'm an Idaho backcountry angler and appreciate you don't give away the names of these rivers, lakes and streams ! Wonderful video , thank you.
Beautiful place, those were some healthy fat fish.
Beautiful scenery, beautiful fish☺️
Thank you!
What a beautiful location, my oh my you are blessed my friend.
Agreed! Thanks Ron.
Great to see you in such good form dude.
Wonderful video and beautiful cutthroats! I went out on my first tenkara fishing expedition yesterday (Croton River in New York) and caught two pretty wild browns (8 inchers) using your Idaho Killer Kabari and materials from your fly tying yarn. Keep up the great work!!
I'm familiar with traditional fly fishing, but this is new to me. Hope you can do another video sometime on the basics, such a choosing a line, tippet, casting, etc.
There are other videos on CZcams covering that kind of thing. I usually show my fishing adventures.
Nicely done. Beautiful stream and trout.
Thanks for watching, Jim.
Beautiful fish
Beautiful stream!
Came here from your other channel... Suv rving... love flyfishing but haven't tried Tenkara yet... have to talk my wife into the need for her another rod.
Great video as always... be safe and God Bless!
Que hermosos paisajes sales a pescar...
Great content
Sweet! In locations like that I'll take a few less catches! Why I don't fish weekends. Not a fan of shoulder to shoulder fishing. 😁. Solitude is important. Plus it gives room for those who can only fish on weekends. I enjoy the drone shots, no doubt! Thanks, Tristan!
I'm spoiled now, and I generally avoid going places on the weekends in general! The weekends and holidays are for staying home 😁
@@TenkaraAddict The same went for us when we had our 26-foot sloop. My wife asked me one beautiful day out on Lake Michigan why we were the only ones out in such perfect conditions. I reminded her that it was Wednesday, lol.
Love your videos
Thanks!
Yo I hope you see this!
I started tenkara style fishing because I needed a more easy to carry fly rod and found you on CZcams So I more or less started because of you :)
I Started with a Goture Red fox 10' and 12' from amazon I only spent $15 on each rod, and they worked well for about a year and a half for Rock bass, Green Sunfish, and Smallmouth bass!
They were even able to use Light PVC Floating Line
(Though I didn't use a Tapered Tenkara Line with them as i just made mine out of 5' to 6' ft of 20 lb dacron backing a scientific anglers micro swivel and 5' to 8' ft of 4X to 3X tippet.)
But after hundreds of fish in the 8" to 14" range and even a few Gar in the 19" 20" range I never broke a tip!
Though after a incident with a Bow Fin I broke my first tip and i was absolutely powerless against this thing with a 12' Goture..
After that I went and got my first real Tenkara rod I got the dragontail HELLbender since haveing no power to fight bigger fish was always a problem.
The places I fish are all Big Creeks Large and Small Rivers Lakes And Ponds so Big water.
Any way what do you think of the Mutant zx380 NIRVANA 370z, HYDRA zx380, Shadowfire 365, and the Mizuchi zx340 rods as a Big fish Tenkara rods?
Very nice! I would like to see more of the flies you use. I know that the “Idaho kebari” is detailed in a tying video; it would be helpful to see it being put to use. But I shouldn’t quibble: great stuff you are doing, even to an old traditionalist!
Good stuff! Reminds me of my days on the Chattooga River upstate SC. SUV RVer soon for finding trout action out West.
Magnificent
I really appreciate the arrow marker you’ve added to the strike area. I don’t know if it’s possible. I was wondering if could add a circle marker to the fly, so when it hits the water, it would give a prospective on the casting. Awesome videos please keep them coming.
Beautiful water. I can’t wait for our season to open first weekend in September. I’m yet to catch a fish on my tenkara rod. I keep trying and switching back to traditional fly rod after about 30 minutes with no action.
Awesome video!🙏🏻🇺🇸
Thanks!
Beautiful stream, lovely fish.
It never ceases to amaze me, how special these creatures are. How on Earth does a trout even see a tiny, weightless fly in all that turbulence?
And your killer kabari was, what, size 12 or so? They'll hit a size 20 - 26 as well!
We LOVED this video. So we subscribed after many years on SUV RVing (main channel). Not fisherman yet but could be with enough of your expertise by watching more. Any reason you never mentioned this channel (or rarely) over on your main channel ? ( also, I hit notification on website, you ever get more overhead gear nets for the SUV back in stock ? ). Thanks wonderful job as always !!!! Tim and Cathy.
When you said in the beginning I have to look behind me (for casting purposes), I thought you were looking for bears🤣. Do you ever worry about them? When my girlfriend fishes with me, she always has the bear spray nearby. We have one that visits our yard a few times a year but have yet to see one in our fishing travels, thank God😬.
Love the drone footage !! Did/will you ever do a drone “how to/DIY” video. You are so much better at explaining things than most. Cheers!
I think teatonaz has a good point....sure would be nice to see how you "produce" your films.
What a beautiful stream..and you seem to have it all to yourself. I, too, thought that when you turned around to look for trees you were looking for bear. You need to carry bear spray when in the backcountry, and a Gps locator, so that in case you get into trouble you can be located. I and others here, fear for your safety, Bro.
I have to say I like the way you handle and release the fish you catch. And you admire them all, big and small, for the jewels they are. you have inspied me to get a Tenkara setup. As a fellow fly fisherman, I have a couple of ideas that may help you...I know that you want to use traditional Kebari flys, but that may be the reason you are picking up the small ones. they're a little more desperate! Have you thought of using Western style nymphs or wetflies? think wetflies would fit in nicely with your technique. Also, since you are usually solo, you need a net with a longer handle. It would give yo that extra bit to pickup the ones that won't come in. Also, try holding the rod out behind you , not just above you, when bringing them to net. It frustrates me to see you struggle when netting a big one.
With a stream this size thanks for the arrows
tristan for all the back counrty fishing you do, Do you ever come across rattle snakes
Beautiful creek! You are blessed my friend!
(Just wondering do you ever catch and cook a trout or always catch and release)?
Nope. I didn't grow up eating fish, so it's not a taste I really enjoy.
Do you ever catch and eat instead of catch and release ?? -- We love you videos and beautiful scenery .
Nope. I don't eat fish. I didn't grow up eating it, so I never acquired a taste for it.
Another great video! Are you fishing deep with that kabari or do you keep it near the surface? My buddy says it can function like a dry fly or go subsurface, just curious about your strategy for those big hogs
I usually let the kebari naturally sink or do whatever it's going to do on its own.
marble creek north of saint maries id...
Nope
Just curious, how do you take videos of fish in the net. It looks like you switch cameras.
What camera are you using?
1st
#☝️
The climb out of there is a real b****h, isn't it. I haven't been there in years, as it would kill me to climb out.
Which drone are you using?
DJI Mavic Air
“The middle of nowhere”? How can it be in the middle if you’re nowhere?
Trout fishing is awesome and more peaceful scenery most of the time love the video personally I have been doing some brook trout fishing on the fly I am new too it but I highly suggest trying too anyone if. You haven’t oh you can also see some videos of me on my channel about my channel is FishForDinner!
👌👀
👍
Awesome man. What state ?
Nvm just read your bio!
I'd eat 1 of those cutthroats raw, sushie~
