I love that he’s getting emotional about how special it is. The beauty of fishing is that we are always chasing the dragon and when you get a good dose and the conditions are perfect it’s important to pause and enjoy it fully.

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Exactly! Thanks for watching.

Caught my first ever carp on the fly (cicada pattern) yesterday, in my kayak, here in Dayton. I was skunked by them the day before, when I was out, but caught so many bluegill on a dropper. Your videos, and instructions have really helped to get me back to fishing/fly fishing, after many years away. I'm hooked! Keep up the great work.

Thanks for being here and congrats!

Very nice video guys! I was able to fish the bighorn river in Wyoming for the first time these past couple days and caught my first couple brook trout. I just started fly fishing a couple months ago and your videos help a lot! Please keep them coming!

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for being here. As long as folks keep supporting the shop, we'll keep making videos! Stay tuned......

The Salmonfly Hatch is my dream every year. I take vacation from work and fish the first 2 weeks of June. It’s like hummingbirds flying everywhere, they’re just giant bugs instead. I CAN NOT wait for the Salmonfly hatch this year!!! I’m blessed to have it. Awesome video man.

@Madriveroutfitters 2 года назад

Thanks for watching. Big bugs are special.

That first carp was actually a fully scaled mirror carp,which are supper rare

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

That is correct! Thanks for watching.

I LOVE THAT SOUND!!! I had the pleasant experience of fishing a cicada hatch about 30 years ago, on a canoe float trip in Central Alabama. We slaughtered the bream and bass. I mean largemouth, spotted, and redeye bass, bluegills, redears, pumpkinseeds, warmouths, and green sunfish all were gorging on the things. We went home, put a little extra black Sharpie on our ¹/¹⁶oz black Roostertails, along with a little orange fingernail polish. We went back the next day and caught over 200; mostly bass! I just had to have some of your cicada flies; they look awesome. I pray that I live long enough to hear that sound again! It IS the trip of a lifetime. 🪰

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing. An amazing angling experience for sure!

@benpoff7759 3 года назад

AWESOME video!!! All the species of fish on ONE fly ... a magical day my friend!

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching. It was indeed!

@jacobstarr9010 3 года назад

Catfish fight super hard on conventional tackle, I can only imagine how hard they pull on a fly rod.

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

They are a blast on a fly!

@jedicazador 3 года назад

I’ve gotten a few catfish on fly one was a 7 lb catfish it was an awesome fight , carp is on my wish list

@nathancottrill1363 2 года назад

I am blessed that I get to be a part of such a famous and incredible hatch on a yearly basis out in Western Colorado. Huge bugs in the masses, everywhere. You can’t keep them off of you, and you can’t keep the fish off your flies either. Salmonfly Hatch….💯

@Madriveroutfitters 2 года назад

Tons of fun. That’s really cool. Thanks for sharing.

@alexc9187 3 года назад

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Tons of fun! Thanks for watching.

@williamschwan207 3 года назад

going to have to make the short drive down there to try some of these carp. The hatch in '16 was nothing short of spectacular in my county. Glad to see you guys getting out there.

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching and feel free to call the shop if they can help out.

That firs carp, woah nelly! Its really something when you catch such a fish on a rod not really rated for it. I was pan fishing with a 5’ ultralight and 4lb test down here in Florida, on a creek as wide as a 4 car lengths. Not a fly rod, its too tight to use one. I have caught small bass here b4 and there’s a big variety of fish to catch. However I NEVER expected to catch a 5.5lb bass. What a carefully calculated fight. The bass certainly had the advantage, but after 10 minutes I won…..barely. 40 of my line was ruined though. I’m pleased Brian had the patience to pull this off. You should have lost the battle. Its quite the accomplishment to win when the playing field is equal. Congrats Brain. 👍

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching.

@brooksvenuti7490 3 года назад

That might be the most pristine mirror carp I've ever seen!

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Agreed. A fine specimen.

@jessebainter5269 3 года назад

Looks like a blast! I'm bummed out, the cicada hatch in central Iowa was about seven years ago.

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

It is certainly a blast! We are going to become "Cicada Chasers".

@cephasmcpher67peteroutdoorspip 3 года назад

WOW! What an awesome outing the variety of fish was crazy. I went out last weekend and I was watching my fly drifting downstream and it got taken by a snapping turtle. Thank God I smash my barbs so I didn't have to just cut the leader, surprisingly he didn't fight it was like he was just inviting me to get my hand close to his mouth to get my fly back, lol.

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching and be careful out there.

@terp53 3 года назад

What a great day of fly fishing! Love the video 👍🏼

Awesome video Brian 🎣😃, catfish on a surface lure wicked . When I live back in England, we would actually catch, the occasional weils catfish. On a floating dog biscuit 😐 , manly carp fishing. What a fight, on 10lb line. My fishing buddy Dave, court a 17.5 lb . Took 1& half hrs to land the Monster. This was at Caerphilly Castle in Wales, England

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing.

@johnnylightning1491 3 года назад

Well Brian, I don't know if I'm going to live to see the next Brood X hatch but if I do I'll be at your shop so you can tell me where that river is. I haven't seen any cicadas here in Michigan but I've got my eye out for them. Keep the good stuff coming.

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for watching.

Ohio does have some beautiful waters! Glad too live here❤️ it gets a lot of a bad wrap but it’s just the people who aren’t that great!

@@Madriveroutfitters I’m going too make my way too the shop soon, sad too say I’ve been tuned in since I started fly fishing bust still haven’t stopped in 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’m about 2 hours south, would love too come get some awesome gear and tips from you guys!! Thanks for keeping up the great content.

@bryant8635 3 года назад

So cool! We won't get Brood X here in Arkansas, unfortunately. We have to wait for the Brood XIX hatch in 2024 😏

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

It's worth the wait!!!

@steveandsandrarankin9761 3 года назад

I will not be able to fish the Brood X "hatch" (in quotations because i know it's not really a hatch, or is it, lol) because I live in Texas. But I did catch a 6.2 pound channel cat on a 5 weight rod and #6 wooly bugger. I think I was using 2X tippet. Needless to say, when he decided he wanted to run l let him. So much fun!

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing. Catfish are a blast on a fly rod!
