craigos Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Another one right back at you. Dry fly fishing on the upper missouri.
Ken Gargett Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 Another one right back at you. http://vimeo.com/33209372#at=0 Dry fly fishing on the upper missouri. that is a cracker. makes me want to grab a rod. but if that appeals, imagine dry flies when wading up a river sight fishing. does it get better?

Need to come over to Montana (MT) Ken - fishing the spring creeks around Dillon, MT. Know a couple of guides there who love to smoke a good cuban - catching 26" brown trout on spring creeks on #22 PMDs.

Know a couple of guides there who love to smoke a good cuban - catching 26" brown trout on spring creeks on #22 PMDs. would love to. have a good mate with a place on the snake river, i think. very keen to have a crack at that as well. i'm always fascinated that americans talk about their trout in inches and not pounds. i've caught some very long trout that are not in great nick (we call them slabs or snakes) and would not weigh (nor would they fight) anything like some others - shorter but fatter and in great condition.

Probably because most of our fishing regulations here have min or max size limits in inches so more people carry tape measures than scales hence why we judge fish that way.

Most trout streams in the US don't produce a great deal of large fish. That's why we usually size fish in inches and not pounds. In my region, anything over 14" is a good trout. Anything over 18" is a really good fish. I would love to be able to catch some 3-5 pound browns on dries.

mk05 Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 check out fly fishing the Ozarks on youtube. Couple of really awesome videos. Namely (watch on HD):
