Oregon Coast Fly Fishing, WINTER RUN STEELHEAD and WHITEWATER rafting - A Film by Todd Moen

- čas přidán 7. 02. 2023
- Using footage Todd captured years ago, Todd aims to tell the simple story of what it’s like for a fly fishing angler to spend a few days trying to catch a Pacific Northwest Winter Run steelhead on a swung fly. It’s not just about the catch. The real story is in the process, the getting there, the weather, the waiting, the failing, the final hookup and the land.
Jeff Hickman, co-owner of Fish the Swing and Kimsquit Bay Lodge in British Columbia, has a very few and far between guide's day off on a mighty coastal river that empties into the ocean on the Oregon Coast. A relaxed soundtrack accompanies more natural sounds than what you might find on Todd's past work. Capturing beauty shots of the river with nature surrounding Jeff, Todd drives home the vibe he’s after. Relax, chill out, take a breath of fresh air...and enjoy the sounds & visuals of this new film. Thanks to R.L. Winston Rod Company, Scientific Anglers and Orvis for encouraging people to get out on the water through the the art of fly fishing and film.

Todd M., your films have inspired me to begin a journey that I could have never imagined. I had no idea it would become an obsession and a new found respect for that beautiful wild creature that is a steelhead and the environs which it inhabits. It only took me five years - I finally landed an Oregon wild winter steelhead three weeks ago. I would have never experienced that indescribable connection had it not be for you and watching Jeff and Jakob in Winter Run. Thanks so much for sharing your talent, vision and thoughtful art.

Wow, very cool Korey! Thanks for this. I’m glad we were able to inspire you to get out and eventually land one of these beauties… thanks so much.
Honey, come quick! Todd Moen released a new steelhead video!! Epic!!
Thanks for that comment. Appreciate the support!
Literally me 😂😂
Bahaha😊
Guys my hero
I don't know if it's because I love it so much, but the steelhead videos get me the so fricking pumped up to be out on a river swinging my heart out for a chance.
there is nothing more fluid and beautiful than a perfect single spey and a steelhead willing to make you smile... this is why i love spey and flyfishing . . . thank you so much for sharing!!
With most Sincere due respect, Fly Fishing is 2 words, at least in English.
Learned more about steelhead/trout fishing just by being there with Todd Moen. Incredible content as always.
Oh man, it’s only when catch magazine doesn’t post video for awhile, that you realise how much you enjoy his content!
And keep up the amazing job my friend !!!!
Thank you! I'll keep it rolling as long as I can!
The photography is just amazing and the shots of the Spey casts are just incredible. Great work
Thanks a ton!
Pure visual poetry, as usual from Todd Moen. Man, those are some husky steelhead. Respect for those who chase them in these wild places.
The head to the heavens buddy ! We all know that feeling !!
Another real gem in this fly-fishing-universe!💎🐟 Cheers from Austria!🍺🍺
Best fly fishing content hands down. Would love to see some BC steelheading content eventually!
Thanks Edward! Really appreciate this. 👍
Amazing film ❤!

Fly fishing trip videos that are always interesting to watch with beautiful spot landscapes, super strong fish and experienced fly fishermen combined into one make it a very enchanting content.
We hope that you will continue to work and inspire all fly fishing lovers in the world. Very inspiring.
So cool😎👍👍👍
The best fishing video I have seen in years on so many levels. Thanks. I hit the Oregon coast with my 2 hander last March for 2 weeks, living out of a rented mini van. Couldn't catch but it was amazing just the same
Midnight shift and I have this to keep me awake. It almost makes me want to quit my job. Beautiful fish man and great video
Thanks a million. Don’t quit, keep working hard. Rewards will come. Appreciate you watching.
Beautiful video, music, and content. Nobody tells a visual story better.
Thank you David. Very much appreciated!
Great video! Always the love the way you bring the story together and your editing is always top notch. Hope to get out to the Oregon coast someday to swing some flies for those beautiful chromers.
Great video amd really nice fish
Black and blue..... always good 😊
Your fly videos are the best, most artistic short films out there. Keep up the fantastic work!
Well done Todd. It's wonderful to see how your career has blossomed.
Dick!!! Oh my… GREAT to hear from you. Where are you these days? I was just talking about Costa Rica tarpon to a few people last week. That was a crazy trip…
@@CatchMagazine I'm in Indianapolis, believe it or not. Have had quite a few physical setbacks the last 15 years. 10 orthopedic surgeries have left me unable to fish anymore. My oldest daughter Kate has become a terrific fly fisher. We were in Manzanillo last year and she and her husband caught their first 100plus lb. Tarpon. Yes, that was a great trip we had. Wish I still had the video, but it was lost years ago. Anyway, congratulations on your successes.
Great view, great fish!
Sik vid! These are some of my fave steelie vids!
amazing video 👍
Thank you!
Another amazing video . all I can say it's WOW 😍
Good job men nice fishing 🎣
So good.
Thank you!
Brilliant 👏
Thanks very much!
LOVE THESE
Sure was a quiet place to fish before guys like you found it. Now you can barely get a cast in between boats going by. Damn internet
ANDY I AGREE SOME PLACES NEED TO BE LEFT OFF THE INTERNET... THIS IS UNFORTUNATE AT BEST
Money always wins! End of an era with social media and utube
@@davidmerriott7356 facts. I would like to see a video from the dean personally
1 word....WoW!
There are all the posers who try to make fly fishing videos and then there's Todd Moen, who makes works of art that tell amazing stories. No "sick eat, dude!" to be heard anywhere.
Thanks Thomas!
Perfection…
TOP🎣👍
Hi Todd, I'd love to get you over to Idaho to fish and film an extremely unique experience! Sturgeon + Fly Rod!
Could be amazing... shoot me an email. info@catchmagazine.net
For every pound of steel, we pay a pound of silver to catch. It may not make dollars and sense, but it does make smiles.
looks like I need to practice my spey cast.
A good day.
Always good to be on the water!
I know the main location of this film, and I would never say it, but would it be ok to talk about the hooks with loops tied on at 1:25? Does anyone know what this is? A faster way to change out stinger hooks? On tubes? If not, ok, please ignore, but I figured if they zoom in on it, it might not be a super secret, idk. Fabulous videography as usual, and Jeff is a true Jedi
Most likely just stingers Jeff chopped off to replace but were still usable. Mono loops for tubes.
is kimsquit bay lodge fly fishing only?? Or can gear guys fish it too if they stay there
Fly only... Thanks for watching.
@@CatchMagazine that sucks . Lovely Video though
what river
I second that, what river. I live in oregon and I can't figure it out.
@@ozzyoregon9257 no doubt in my mind though its gotta be the sandy or clackamas
Sorry guys, I never mention river names… especially steelhead streams. Exploring on your own is what makes it fun! I’ve even put different license plates on rigs that are in my films to throw people off. I have a lot of fun with it.
The Scrotius.
@@CatchMagazine do you guide gear fisherman on the Dean??
I’ve nicknamed this man “outdoor Mac” because he looks like Rob McElhenney from always sunny in Philadelphia
Outdoor Mac! Haha!
I am from Portland, i am guessing which river this is ?

Wanna sell the Abel?😊
Casting almost 90 degrees. Swing is too fast. Hookups fail at 90 degrees. Longer line, longer rod, 45 degrees to the current, better hook up.
Maybe!
Why do y’all have to ruin a great video with music???!! The sound of the river IS THE MUSIC! Just saying…..because I don’t know anyone watching this to hear music……..we watch it because we would like to be there too!
That fish properly cost him 2000 an inch when you consider all the time effort and money spent, As they say, the tug is the drug. Worth every dime and then some. I can't think of a better way to spend January and February. that fish for the fish of a 1000 casts. The only downside is being wet and cold, not the sort of thing to do alone I would think but I would just because. No cameras no phones, just me the fish, and the music of the running water.
