We're a crew of lifelong buddies who just couldn't put a good story down. We love crafting films about the outdoor experience. The people. The places. The pursuits.
But there's also adventures and journeys that we're dying to share. Like the time that Ben and George got stranded on an uninhabited island while trying to catch bonefish. Or the time Dan dropped into 400 feeding tuna, and left with only a headache. Or especially the time (every time) where we took what we had, made the best out of it, and adventured as far as we could.
So while we're just a crew of friends from Alabama, we publish tales from Colombia, Alabama, Mexico, Louisiana… anywhere adventure is found.
Loved this. Its amazing because Riggins has no idea you are doing all this for him. To him, hes accompanying you on this journey. But that dog is having the greatest life I think a dog has ever had. Cant wait for Pt.2
Thanks for taking the time to film and make a well produced video. Against the odds, I'm taking my wife, our 2.5y/o son and 6mo. little girl. Fly fishing in nameless mountains has always been special to me. This is something I want to share with them. Great video and good reminder - walking in with the expectation that I may not even wet a line is a good start.
@@pikeonthefly13 It really depended on the day... (which I know is a terrible answer). Sometimes it was nicer to be on a lighter, more nimble rig. Other times, a larger size was super helpful when there was more of a breeze.
Warrior bass make you *earn* it so much respect for you there! It's a tough call for us-- Coosa bass have such a wide range in beautiful areas, Tallapoosas have such a striking coloration... and then Cahabas would *technically* be our home fish. So can we cheat and say... it depends on the day?
@dorsaloutdoors I love them all too, the Warrior is my home fish so I may be a little biased! I can be at a creek that has them in a matter of minutes!
Thanks, Eric! Those are Shoal Lillies (better known as "Cahaba Lillies" around here). Super interesting species that is worth the Google deep dive if you're curious!
The tarpon jump in slo- mo has to be on of the best jump shots ever ! How close was the camera from that shot ? Y’all could of had a big production film crew and never got a shot like that , 👍🏼😄
Thanks Dave! The camera was definitely in the splash zone (about an hour later it ended up in the water but the footage was miraculously preserved on the cards) And yeah- that’s the wildness of documenting the outdoors- you *never* know when the fish are going to put on a show!
We really loved throwing 9s in this context. A little more punch than an 8… but more precision than a 10. As technical as that sounds it was more for keeping the poppers out of the mangroves and into the water haha
What an epic trip! Congratulations to you all and the guides for making such an entertaining video. It really captures all that is great about our sport and that very special area of the Yucatán. It sure made me wanna go!👊😎
Pretty cool man. I got spots I wanna check out over there. Just gotta make time. Think they will hit top water this time of year or should I be throwing streamers?
@@koltowenby10 Depends what you want-- more fish? Definitely sub-surface. More fun? Definitely topwater. We honestly fish topwater 99% of the time (even in the cold) because that's what we find the most fun in! They were hitting some poppers yesterday, so it's worth a try!
Glad you liked the video! Sorry- shoulda been clearer in the storyline that fly fishing was the ambition… but George was the only who could make it happen on the fly
the video would be nicer if you didn't talk so much. I can't stand this American method of making videos and constantly talking about them. interrupt what is the magic of fishing and that is silence. fishing also means enjoying the moments, a fishing video should have more silence and more action. so shut up a bit
