Backcountry Monster Trout (New Zealand Episode 13) 

So glad to hear! We’ve been busy with our jobs now that we’re done traveling, but we’ll try to get back on track as soon as possible ☺️

Well, thank a lot for taking the time to write down such a nice feedback! And yes, the fishing was truly incredible!

What an amazing comment to read, thanks a lot, that means a lot to us ☺️ we will keep trying doing the same in the future

@abucad8687 I agree with a lot of what you're saying in that comment. Great choice of words. Particularly the word pretentious. There's a few of them around. A good family friend of mine likes to call them RU-vid heros. What I enjoy about these guys in there content is what you see is what you get. Because we don't always have good days in fly fishing.

​@HighcountryFlylife Thanks👍. Ya, part of the fun of fishing is that there are so many countless variables that change daily, sometimes hourly. So when someone acts like they know EXACTLY what they're doing, it comes across as inauthentic. We're all just trying to solve a puzzle in flux, and sometimes we fail. Seeing other anglers trying to figure it out is more genuine and fun to watch🙂

@abucad8687 I couldn't agree more. I've seen a lot of films from certain channels which I shall not name where it's like every cast turns to gold and you don't see them miss a strike or it seems they are catching fish every 5 minutes. You miss all the lead up work. The eb and flow of the whole experience. I think for some they must want to have there ego stroked a little but like you said it's not realistic in some cases when you see those types of films.

Haha, thanks! Tuva did a great job as speaker on that one! We will discuss internally if she can do that on all situations and Vebjorn fish!

Thanks a lot! Yeah what an incredible experience! Incredible river system!

Yeah that was crazy shoulders! Wait until you see the next one!

Thanks for the nice comment! ☺️

Thanks! It’s so cool that many of you are interested in seeing the Norwegian fishing! We look so much forward to showing it!

Thanks a lot!! Yes that fish will forever be remembered as the fish we never caught. Together with the one Tuva lost…

@@slowrisemedia I look forward to seeing some footage from Norway

@@HighcountryFlylife and we look so much forward to show you guys!

Thanks a lot! We appreciate the support!

We agree!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks!

🥰

Thanks a lot! To be honest I wouldn’t be if it’s a sea run one, could very well be. Do you know when they start to migrate up the rivers?

I fished a river known for sea runs in early March and was thinking some fish were in already. I lost a fish I was sure was 6 kg on a dry fly 😢but did land a couple of 3 kg and one of 4.5. They all acted like resident fish though … appearance was a bit different- less colours

No! Or actually we tried a little straight after we landed in New Zealand but with limited success! Looks amazing tho! Must be next trip!

Nice! Thanks for the advice! I love my flyweights tho, it’s just that they don’t last much more than 2 fishing seasons for me. Maybe G4 is up next

@@slowrisemedia so did i , after 8 mnth of coast fishing the fell apart - i can share a picture of em..i kept em in my garage just to remind me of the waste of money but the Comfort they brought cause they where awesome to hike in..

Wish we could go to north island too someday. SI is truly amazing tho!

@@slowrisemedia heck yeah man so beautiful

Haha, not yet! But we are eager to show you guys how good Norway can be too ☺️

@@slowrisemediaI'm really looking forward to seeing some of that! Come back for a mouse year down in the south island :)

Thanks a lot, that’s so nice to hear! Haha, yeah it’s a good question. When there are cattle in the river we just have the habit of boiling the water, both here and back in Norway. Just to be on the safe side. Sucks to get fishing days ruined because of off stomach. Thanks!

@@slowrisemedia I would drink straight , same like I would do when I am in Norway ..

Hopefully as soon as possible ☺️ We’ve been stuck with work after we got back from traveling but we’re trying to make time to get back to editing again!

Unfortunately we’ve been super busy with new jobs after we got back from our trip! But we’ll see if we can get some editing done soon:)

I agree it’s a trout! But no clear signs of feeding made us question ourself at that time

@@slowrisemedia your in big fish country now biggest in the country but they get a lot of pressure

@@turbostunt321 yeah very pressured water, we can tell!

Do they make wading boots, or you just use your regular boots when wet wading?
