$20 Cabelas FLY Fishing Challenge!! (Surprising!) 

“I want you to catch fish, you’re the future” Tom was awesome to put you on like that! We definitely need more fly fishing videos.

Bless Tom and the people like him

It’s people like the guy you met that inspire me to fish I hope to help some people like that

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, people fishing for fun are the nicest most genuine people in the world.

I swear, fishermen/women and hunters are some of the most kind and helpful people. It’s crazy.

Tom is the epitome of what it truly means to be a sportsman! Love seeing the angling community work together!

Hey man, thanks for doing the fly fishing thing!! That guy Tom is a great guy, you'll find that a lot of fly fisherman will help each other out. Very friendly group of guys! Hell yes get a new rod! You learned a valuable lesson, you can't treat a fly rod like an ugly stick! You would have been better off crossing the creek and trying to grab the branch the fly was tangled in to get it back. But everyone learns that lesson sooner or later. And the spill in the creek, more common than you'd think!! For me it was twice in one day, and boy was that water cold!! Thank God I had my wading belt on, or my waders would've filled up. Anyway, great job, beautiful fish, and don't give up man it's worth pursuing this sport. It's very challenging, and rewarding at the same time. Enjoyed you latest attempt very much, and if you're not learning everyday......you're probably dead!! Get a new rod and have some more fun!! Loved it!! Keep up the great work!!!

Most people don’t like sharing their stuff they use or anything and the fact he said “you’re the future” brought a tear to my eye I hope there will be more people like that in the future

I enjoy it when you do videos like this or just you doing challenges

3:59 Love dudes like. Just a genuine nice dude who’s want people to have fun. I want friends like that

Tom was really nice!

Yes!! Finally a new fly fishing video.

2:20 what a freaking nice dude. Love people like that.

Surprisingly! I haven’t caught any trout until I met Tom this spring. I don’t know if the men with name Tom are really angels.I met myTom in PA this spring,and he told me how to use salmon eggs, and helped me with my backlash. After that ,I have been catching trout for the whole spring and even summer.Big thanks to any Tom!

Literally fly fisherman are the nicest people I fish both ways and consistently fly fisherman are so helpful

My grandpa was a fly fishing guide. I have had a fly rod in my hand since I was 8. But it definitely takes time and someone to show you the basics. It's awesome when people help people just starting out. I share as much I can with anyone who asks

If you are using a streamer (wooly bugger) you dont need the strike indicator. The indicator is made for nymphs, which is what you had on when that guy helped you out :)

Tom.... you the man brother. Thank you for helping a fellow fisherman. We need more people like you sir.

The guy that helped you fly fish was amazing. What a great person.

When you set the hook be really gentle, trout have gentle mouths and you can rip the hook out easily. Also when catch and release fishing for trout use non barbed hooks or flatten down the barbs in your hooks so they do less damage to the trout 👍 another great video man keep it up

Wow just seeing this out of the box ru-vid.comUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

That's what I'm all about as a fisherman in general. The fishing community is fantastic and I love sharing my knowledge with others and I make sure I listen when someone is speaking on things I do know. Catching a fish on the fly is so epicly rewarding. Keep it up and give it more of a chance. Make sure you stop out in PA and check out some of our amazing streams. 👌👌

That guy that helped him with his fishing pole was a true fisherman. All respect to that guy

From what I've seen fly fisherman always willing to help or teach somebody how to fly fish

Never knew fishing was so social and inviting. Tom is a good guy!

You need to go fly fishing for bass/bluegill! It is AWESOME and much easier than fly fishing for trout! Go try it! (and make a vid) Like if he should try it!

I was overjoyed when the two men (especially Tom) helped you out. People like them make the fishing community great. Like Tom said we are the future of fishing :)

Go for bass on the fly rod. Woolley buggers work very well

Need more guys like the one that was helping you out. Might of been a bit odd. But that's awesome he literally only wanted you to succeed. What a guy.

It’s always great to see fishermen so happy to help each other. The fishing community always seems so friendly.

Yeah, you need a 101 class on fly fishing. A basic understanding will go a long way. Your casting is good for a beginner. I was suiting up to wade and fly fish. It was essentially my first time, I had made about a half a dozen casts the day before. Another vehicle comes up and two guys get out ready to fly fish. One of them asks me which way I'm going and what I was using. After I told him, he asked how new I was. I told him v new. He responds, 'well, I'm a certified casting instructor and a member of the board of the Federation of Fly Fishers in this region, would you like some casting instruction?'. I'm like, hell yeah. He gave me a dry fly and within minutes I had my first dry fly caught fish and my first Brook Trout ever. Fly fisherman community is generally v generous.

That's awesome, Tom helped you out to catch some trout, and first guy you met, gave you some his tackle as well!!! I say go for it, start learning tie your flies! But meanwhile, you can buy flies lot cheaper off Amazon, plus you get nice fly box go with it as well!! Fish On!! I'll definitely like to see you do more fly fishing!! I'm just starting to learn more about it myself. Sure is fun way go fishing, for trout, Largemouth and smallmouth bass as well! Fish On 🐟

That man was awesome, and really showed the spirit of a true outdoorsman. It's refreshing to see a fisherman who isn't just selfish and worried about themselves. I like how you "accidentally" picked up awesome all-around trout flies.

Gotta love the fishing community, it always helpful when someone takes the time out of their fishing day to help another. Love it!

Shoutout to Tom i live to see people like him helping others. Thank you Tom!

I went to a trout park with my Dad and basically the same thing happened. the trout fishing community is so nice.

As a newbie myself...YES! Keep at it. Peace quiet, being outside...all are wonderful

I'm getting into fly fishing been doing it for a little, it's pretty fun! Nice vid bro

Who else loves the budget videos

Awesome to see some old heads teaching the young bloods! I'm always glad to help somebody out, and I've been helped out by others, too. I was teaching my nephew how to fly cast this summer.

Yea dude get into fly tying!! I just recently started and oh man is it fun and relaxing! And it’s the best feeling when you catch a fish on your own fly!

“I wonder what Tom is doing today” 🥰

Once met a Guy just like Tom, that man talked to me and two of My friends for hours after that borrowed us hes bout. Next Day we went Back and mans gifted us hes old rowing bout, yes it had a few leakes but still respect

I can’t tell you how many casual anglers became competent fishermen just by sharing the sport they love. So if you see someone struggling, help them out. The more anglers we have the stronger our voices become.

I love it when you go fishing and people are actually nice to you!

the fly fishing community loves seeing the young people coming in, when i first started i had just gotten my driving licence. at 16 , and for my birthday my uncle who had 5 month earlier gotten into fly fishing, i showed interest, he got me some starting gear. pushed off really learning because i was enjoying bait casting... 4 months later when I finally give it a shot, i ran into a guy in his 70's catching fish left and right like he was picking candy out of the shop like a little kid. he saw my rig, my line weight, what i was using and told me to hand him my rod because im not gonna have any fun if i am not set up right ( i was skeptical and had already fished for an hour catching nothing) soon as he fixed my leader and handed it back to me I was catching fish every other cast and stood there the whole day chatting with the man. just soaking up every thing he told me like i was a sponge on fly fishing. fished many many other times with him and some other older gentlemen who are up there in the years. sadly Greg passed 3 years ago and now i have found i have turned into him and have taught new fly fishers a few times now. the sport is one where if your not set up correctly you will not catch anything, but if your set up correctly you are hooked for life, I now make my own flies, built my own fly table.. the works and i just go hog wild some days catching bugs from local rivers and copying them, ive turned into an entomologist practically., ive gotten to the point where i pin them now so i can copy them. Long story short, the fly fishing community REALLY likes to teach new anglers and will even teach you some of their secret spots if you chat with them long enough and want nothing more than you to experience the fun that is fly fishing, its totally different from any other form of fishing.

15:10 that's exactly how I treat younger newer guys when I see them out fly fishing. Hats off to that gentleman. I hope you develop a love for the sport and pass it on to another generation someday too.

I just started fly fishing myself and have found that they are definitely a much more friendly type of people and more than happy to give you tips. Even invite you to fish next to them at a good spot.

How awesome! You definitely have a great fishing community! Keep up the hard work! Love your videos my man

Man that's the way everyone should be. Thumbs up to that guy

Thomas Thomas! People like that are awesome!

Its so awesome to see such nice people helping each other out on the river, especially beginners like myself haha. Great videos!

This video was incredibly wholesome and talking to people and learning from the community is my favorite part of fishing

Guys like Tom are what make the fishing community so great! I'll gladly help anyone anyone become better fisherman and I'm ever grateful when people do the same for me!

Looked like you had a pheasant tail nymph in brown tied on first, that’s a really productive fly almost everywhere.

We are the future of fishing. We have a legacy to pass on to our kids and future generations. Keep learning and expanding your horizons in the fishing world and definitely do more fly fishing videos bro!!

It’s nice guys like Tom that keep people trying new ways to fish. I definitely enjoyed the video as well. Might even try fly fishing out to see how it all works

you make my week, every time you post

Awesome man, there's no right or wrong way if your catching fish! Tom and people like him are awesome.

Definitely do more fly fishing videos it's very entertaining even though you are still learning. Tom was an absolute legend....good to see there are still genuine and selfless people in this world!

What a badass guy for helping you out too, that's what this is all about. Everytime I go fly fishing and run into someone new to it I always come home needing to tie up a couple dozen flies because I try and hook them up.

Dude. Tie your own flies. It isn’t all that expensive for a basic fly tying kit and that is how you get the flies you like. Nice video. Keep up the great work. Keep at it

i swear, fishermen are the nicest community in the world.

That’s why I love to fish there’s no right or wrong in this game and it’s nice to see that there’s really helpful people out there! Great vid

I love when people are so willing to help others learn and be successful in fishing, I try to be like that and it’s one of the things I love about fishing

The fishing community needs more people like Tom. I was so impressed by his desire to get you on a fish. I want to be him one day.

This is such a great video, shows you how great people can be. Also yo have a new subscriber!! I look forward to watching more of your stuff.

both of these guys were so nice to him. really cool. great guys

U have an AMAZING fishing spot and community

bless tom and also this is my favorite series from you! make more please!!

DO MORE FLY FISHING. Honestly I picked up a fly fishing combo because of you. My first time out today at a super pressured pond that’s hard to fish in general and I caught my first blue gill. It was super small but I seriously never felt so rewarded with my efforts

Love the fly fishing videos man! Would not complain if you did it more Ps: practicing your cast in the backyard helps a lot. That’s what I did when I was learning to fly fish.

awesome to see people that want to help out there....great people

Bless that guy. This is so wholesome!

Man, Tom is so legit. We need more people like that in this world.

Hell yea dude about time for some fly fishing!

When I see fishing challenge on one of your videos I know it is going to be lit!

What did I learn today? The Fly Fishing community is super wholesome. Awesome!

Those worms are my favorite! I love fly fishing with them! Also they are called squirmy wormy jigs and San Juan worms! Love your vids!!!

I was waiting a fly fishing video and here you go posting one and by the way i enjoyed your vid very much

people like the guy you met was so nice i snagged my line today and some guy jumped the railing and got it out for me!

Tom was fantastic. Hope he saw this video. Loved it when anglers are generous to teach another beginner. - Vincent, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Those guys were awesome! What a great video

I love nice people like that guy you met he was so nice those are the kind of people who inspire me to be a nice person

What a great steward to the flyfishing community, its people like Tom who help make others want to continue their pursuit in the life long love of flyfishing. Oh had to edit to tell ya cabellas often has packages of flies off to the side their prob half the price. AND the rod has cabellas name on it they will replace or give you credit towards a different one.
