I know nothing about fly fishing, but even to the untrained eye, that is some pretty good video. I am guessing those fish don't eat feet the way he dangles his in the water :wink:
It certainly closes with one hell of a shot 8)

Awsome footage Kim. Is amazing he even gets them to the tube. Is interesting watching the different technics appling presure to the fish without having the leaverage from the height in a boat.Certainly maxing out the rod thats for shore. Seen a gurgular pattern there as well. Must be an amazing place to fish having them braking surface even in the rain.
Extream tubbing thats for shore.

Great vid!
Makes me wanna get back into flyfishing more, if only we had some better species and waters to make a flyrod more worthwhile.
watch youre feet, you may never know where they might take you....
