Really appreciate it Tony, glad you’re enjoying!! 👌🤙😁 Yeah I’ve been C&R for going on 20 years or so now, but yeah pinching my barbs the past cpl has made a tremendous difference….. hook removal is effortless now! 👌 Your fishing streak is very impressive as well good sir….. keep up the good work also! 👌🤙😁🎣🍻
Nice ones, guys! Well done. Dusty, why are there so few eyelets on your spinning rod? Am I seeing just 3 or 4? I haven't seen a pole with so few and why?
Thanks Brotha, Glad you’re enjoying my man! 👌🤙😁🎣 Well my rod is kind of an accident/on purpose set up, I snap my rod down to 4’5” to 4’8” because of my flip cast accuracy under limbs & such in tight quarters small stream situations…… it stiffens my rod, Lol, therefore allowing to deliver pinpoint accuracy on my casts (in theory) haha…….. the accident part was one day I slammed my rod in my truck door snapping it to about that length, rather than discarding it, I kept using it……. Ended up realizing how much more accurate I’d become I just started doing it on purpose to every new rod I’ve purchased & I never looked back! “The Dusty Rhoads Custom! 😂🤷♂️😂
Nice work! I just stumbled across your channel I think because of the name which i was searching for a wrestling video with the American dream but I am also an Avid flyfisherman so you got a new subscriber out of me 😂
Yeah he was in full fly mode there….. hold the rod high & net them quick….. unfortunately that big hard pulling trout had other ideas lol🥴🤷♂️ I really don’t have any videos that I illustrate my retrieve other than what you can see in all of my videos….. I essentially like to run it deep & slow haha….. life lesson! 😂
You know how it goes brother, dogs and trout have been in cahoots for as long as men have been fishing. Good thing that dog wasn't loud enough to warn that last fish. That Male's jaw was large enough, and the kype so pronounced, that he's probably kin to both Sly Stallone and Jay Leno! Great fish my dude! Sorry that I've been AWOL. Went and caught that 20! Damn Go Pro didn't start recording til halfway through the fight, so I've been trying to catch her again to get some good shots, but the stream has been a ghost town since that day. I went up to Erie with a buddy that's a Steelhead guide last Monday. Caught my first Steelhead. It was alright. I'm not much for the whole float fishing or center pining deal. Stopped at Fish USA there and bought a couple different Mepps that I hoped would work on em, as well as some of our normal Aglias. And my buddy told me that they had a St. Croix 5'8" heavy there, the Eyecon series... so I bought that and put a Shimano 1000 and 8lb on it, so now I have thoroughly copied your setup, hahaha. I took it out yesterday and it worked wonderfully, had a small farm field creek I hadn't fish before. Lots of browns, just nothing of size. Caught a half dozen wild browns, but none were bigger than 14, and the biggest one I saw was slightly larger than that. Oh well! The season is almost here, and I think I need to travel to find some more isolated streams. I know there's a couple good ones here in my area, but they're close to, or in stocked trout water, and I'd rather avoid all the pandemonium. Keep her up brother! Thanks for all the help again! Me landing that 20 is just as much your fault as it is mine!
Duuuuuuuude that’s So So sick you got that 20”…… yeah man, keep at it & you’ll get that good on cam land you’re after!👌🤙😁 Kudos on that setup too my man! 🤙😁 Sick AF👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Been watching your content for some time now. Great stuff always. Keep up the great work and I’m glad to know you are a trump guy. I’m from New York and watching it disintegrate. Your videos are my escape
Brother I’m Super happy that you’re enjoying my stuff man!!! 👌🤙😁🎣 Can’t thank you enough for the compliments & yes unfortunately they got what they voted for this last go around, & everyone else has to suffer for it! 🥴🤷♂️ Tight Lines my Friend & Best of luck in your future endeavors! 🎣👌🤙😁👊🏼
I have watched everyone of your videos …. That approach on that 25 inch fish by Josh is …. We’ll questionable at best I know he wishes he had that one back but is happens we all been there …tight lines buddy another amazing video
A river runs through it, is actually in Montana I went when I was 12 with my mom and sister white water rafted the river and the fly fished passed the rapids I forgot the name of the town but google is a good trick
They filmed most of the fishing scenes on the Gallatin River. “Brad Pitt rock” from the scene where he fell in chasing the fish is right along the highway in Big Sky. I’ve fished that stretch numerous times.
Lmao….. I was trying to let some of the ball busters know….. when that adrenaline kicks in we don’t have the clearest heads….. but we definitely have learned from our past F ups! Haha👌🤙😁😂🎣👊🏼
I never keep trout….. I feel like a nice 8 by 10 of a PB suits my wall much better than keeping it & killing it……👌😁 Other than that if I want to eat a good tasting fish, it’s going to be a Walleye! 🤙🤤
@@chasingthewildwithdustyrho2620 Yeah, I saw that. Which stream? Im in PA and I dont know of any small streams with 20+ inch wild brown trout swimming around. Sugarcreek?
@@troutstew7346 even if you were fly fishing I've never seen someone rely on their feet at the expense of getting a big fish like that on the reel and using the leverage of their rod to control it. All gotta start somewhere I suppose. Hopefully your trout senses have improved since 2020.
@@troutmessiah2508 the funny thing is I’ve probably caught more large trout than you before 2020 and def 5x after. Using this exact method with my fly rod. Lift, charge, net… You must be the messiah becuase my other replies disappear haha. But I’m leaning more towards false prophet 😉🙃
ever considered buying a net? watching you land the bigger fish is a bit painful. Might be time to follow your buddies example his net was clutch for him.
Watch some more of my videos & then get back to me!! Lol😜 This footage was from early 2020, I actually purchased that same exact net from him when he upgraded and have been using it since mid 2020 till now, so all of my future content is me landing fish with that net! Haha🤙😁🎣
You mentioned the word streams in your title yet you fish the same stream every video. It’s good you use a barbed treble hook. You don’t want to lose any of those trout. Other than that, I enjoy your videos, Rusty.
There were multiple streams in this particular video & they were 3 hours from home & I started pinching my bards in about 2022 but still have content/footage from outings that I’m still putting out (this last one included) that were from as early as 2020 of which I hadn’t started pinching them yet nor had I purchased a landing net yet! 👌 Just a little perspective for you! 🤙😁
@@chasingthewildwithdustyrho2620 Thanks for the perspective Russ. 👍 Nice to see you mentoring another fisherman. I can see he fishes just like you. Now I need to get out on some public water and catch some of those hogs.
