The fist thing I thought about was Huell Howser he has a story & ya can’t forget that name of the area your in. But there’s been a few things in my life that wowed me & going through Yosemite was one of them it’s spectacular.
I like the way you fish flies with a bobber and your spinning outfit. I remember fishing a stocked reservoir my dad took me to in CA when I was a kid. I was fishing with salmon eggs and marshmallows or something like that. I look over to a ledge above me where someone was fishing with a clear bubble and a shaggy looking bait tied a few feet below it. He'd cast out and reel in slowly, and to my astonishment hooked into a big trout. I now know he was probably fishing a wooly bugger or something like it. I'll always remember that and have always thought that was a badass way of going after trout. I'm glad you like that method as well!
Love fishing memories like that! - I just feel so much more comfortable with a spinning combo in my hands, when I use a fly rod it’s like holding a foreign object.
Mountain lions have four toes and can retract their claws like your normal domesticated house cat. These show 5 toes and claws extended while walking. Look at the size of the prints. Also, it's below Hetch Hetchy, well-known for bears and rattlesnakes if not anything else. It's a black bear's prints.
If you look on PBS they have a documentary called "from wilderness to water" that shows the building of Hetch Hetchy dam. The reservoir has a granite basin and is some of the most pristine water in the world.
I live in Southern California near Malibu I would be down to do a video with you showing you some kayak ocean fishing for calico sand bass halibut and more along with a unique way of spearing Corbina
suscribed brother. for 3 reasons: awesome positive attitude, clear concise narration of the story and plan of the day, great video shots of the location and action!
I was down there on the last day of the season last year. Caught a couple of nice browns and say a massive rainbow in one of the deep pool but couldn’t get it to hit anything. Love that area.
Did you fish the Merced river in the valley? I was there in March and saw some pools of rainbows probably several hundred deep.. was very tempted to just risk the fishing out of season ticket 😂 of course reservations during open season are impossible to get!
It's way slower n harder to catch trout here but generally our trout would eat what your showing on camera but then maybe I'm spoilt here in Tasmania Australia
It's too early in the air right now we had a chance of rain and snow, those Rivers Don't mellow out until summer time. Fishing doesn't get decent until usually early July
I’ve never tried dry flies with a spinning set up. I always use wet flys. I suppose you could, but having a dry fly next to a bobber might be kind of weird
Isn't the beauty of nature majestic? How could anyone see all of this and think it was created by anything other than billions of years of evolution and random chance?
I only own Pflueger reels. I have used them forever and they are great for a cheap price. This rod is a Lews. Don’t love it don’t hate it. Thanks for watching!
Hell yeah we walked a long way! That was so far down and then going along river It looked good but I told you it was too fast. Hey man Im sorry I bailed on you and took off when we you showed me the bear tracks! I didnt think it was funny when you put that sandwich in your mouth and started calling Hey mr. bear...I got some sandwich for you right here! Man, You Crazy bro! So you finally caught a fish...You deserve it man.
Nice video! Don’t lift them in the net like that, can tear up their mouths. They aren’t build like bass where their jaws can support their entire body weight.
they don't care about weight given a proper rigging. In.a river that swift, you almost certainly need weight. Double fly rig wont get down for like, 10 seconds into your drift, if ever.
up at that elevation, rattle snakes exist, but limited. I haven't seen any poison oak around Yosemite or in the back country up there. He should be worried about the mountain lions and bears though.
More people are attacked. Buy black bears and any other beer on the planet, so you definitely need to keep your head on a swivel and make sure that you carry your bear spray forgot
Put your waiters on and quit you crying. It happens to all of us. We've all been there. Eat your lunch, eat your snickers bar, you're not being yourself slack, relax, just relax
