Fishing Desert Waterfalls for Wild Trout! (Tenkara Fly Fishing) 

The amount of effort you put into your videos to bring entertaining content is worth applauding. You definitely fish in some really interesting locations. Love your channel! 🤙🏻

Gorgeous locations, even the tight brook, thank you.

Made my day. I could live in that desert forever... the brushy creek was a bonus, love to catch fish out of that tight places.

Enjoying the excellent tenkara fishing from Sydney! We cannot fish the mountains at the moment with all the bushfires ....... so i am getting my dosage watching your fine work and videos! Keep them coming ! Be safe and well!!

What a beautiful place dude !!!!

Super amazing fishing!

This so quickly became my favourite fishing channel on RU-vid and probably overall. As a fly fisherman in southern Ontario, Canada, most of my local creeks and streams look exactly like what you're fishing on this video. It takes so much patience and persistence to find spots on the waterway that combines good fishing conditions and good fish habitat. Keep up the good work. Really enjoying it.

Beautiful location. Amazing.

Awesome brother love the adventures

Probably you’re the only person that has fished those places...that’s my time of fishing! Beautiful adventure! Amazing spots for trout!

Beautiful fish and scenery!

This was a great one! Definitely shows how well tenkara is for places like this!

Awesome my friend. Beautiful waters.

Jumped off those small cliffs a few times, great place to cool off during the summer. Never thought there'd be brownies in there. Awesome stuff man

Holy moly. Really beautiful area. Enjoyed your fishing in all that thick brush and narrow stream area. Unbelievable brown in that little pool about at 8:30 in the video and after. That was awesome. Great fish in that little spot. I thought I was the only one to get stuck in brushy tight areas. Great video!

Really cool place to fish.. awesome video brother

Good adventure!! Great video!

One of the cooler locations I've seen you fish man!

Another great video. That new rod must be your new favorite.

Wow beautiful video! Nice little diversion from this grey day in Colorado. Just stumbled onto your vids recently, and I really enjoy them...there is something about fishing a place that probably hasnt seen another fisher human in years or even ever, like that desert canyon.....that second brownie at the first waterfall was one of the most gorgeous fish I've ever seen. Totally flawless! So, keep 'em coming! Hope you don't run out of counties anytime soon! p.s - those falls where your feet slip out from underneath you are the freakin' worst....ya never see it coming!

A lot of bushwhacking, but very gorgeous areas! Such nice colors. And going down via that rope ladder looked really exciting!

Very cool... Tenkara very cool.

I'd probably gone with a 5' line for the overgrown creek. Hooking is rarely the issue, it's keeping enough tension on the line without whacking too many tree branches. Great job!

I am really not an avid fisherman and I don't watch fishing videos, except this channel because I LOVE the cool spots you find. If I had the time to devote to fishing, this is exactly how I'd want to do it (well, I would actually eat some of the trout, but aside from that). The Catch-A-Fish-In-Every-County quest is classic SUVRVing, LOL. Love it. :-)

Thanks so much for your channel. Your getting me ex ited to get out and use my tenkara rod that's be collecting dust.

Super cool place

Wow beautiful spot 👍😁💓

Love that location Cheers!

You should feel proud that you caught your fish in the hardest parts of the stream. 👍

Great fishing there Cheers from boony in Australia

Waiting the trout's season here in Italy it's amazing see so wonderful places with so beautiful fishes and creeks. Hope soon to share my videos from Italy

Beautiful browns! I know that the Tiny Tenkara rod is not really a traditional rod, and its really only suited for “bow and arrow” casting, but it would be the rod of choice for that brush choked creek. I was afraid you were going to break your new Mizuchi! Another great video! Thanks!

Brush busting small creeks like in my corner of the world - NE Minnesota. Even a 6ft rod is too long. But...it's worth it! 🌲🌲🌲

Another great video and interesting creeks . Wondering when the brown trout were introduced to the area . Fish for them in the cowichan River , Vancouver island in the spring and fall and catch them thru the winter when steelhead fishing. They were introduced in the 1930’s and are in a few systems on the island

AWESOME!

Like✌️✌️✌️✌️Good fishing👍👍👍👍

Beautiful place! Perfect for Tenkara. And by the way ... we all Fall!!! Even when you are being careful, you step on something slippery and down you go. In fact, in the video I just posted on the Cutthroats, you notice at the end I didn't give a clear shot of the fish ... that is because I slipped and was heading down river. Great video.

superb ..

Wow, I know that location well and I was so excited to see you finding fish in that pool. Looks great for a winter outing, because summer would be very difficult.

in the summer time come down to central utah and fish clear creek ! lots of fish and perfect for tenkara!

The first fish you netted was a tiger trout. It's the hybrid of the brown and brook trout. Just saying. You can see the tiger stripe pattern pretty clear, where as the brook trout have more yellow and red spots, and the browns have the black spots.

I love watching your videos! Would you ever consider adding some type of indicator to the leader to add to the excitement of witnessing the actual strike?

Have you fished the verging river north of Glendale ut. In Kane county. I grew up fishing that creek. Thanks again.

With the exception of the rock color, and the lack of rhododendron, this looks a lot like the streams I fish in the Smokies; if you think that brush is bad, try tangling with the rhodo - it's like flexible steel, and the leaves and branches seem designed to snag flies.

It reminds me of euro nymphing with no reel seems fun !

Escalante is awesome. I'm due for a trip. Well done

Thanks for the vid. What camera do you use and where/how do you mount it for POV shots? Appreciate your answer.

Great video! Thanks for the inspiration. When you are trekking through those tight areas and climbing down into gorges are you using wading shoes/pants? Or regular hiking boots?

The sandstone canyon is a cool setting. And the brushy creek? It's good to know that I'm not the only one pulling fish out of places where equipment barely fits. My shortest setup so far - the top two sections of a 10' 3 weight, with a 4 foot length of 6x. It was truly trout stalking, including crawling into position. Now, I'd probably just use the top three sections of a Tenkara rod. When you going to put this up on Discourse?

I couldn't imagine such a gorge-climbing up&down and detour in the US field. Were browntrouts brought from Europe?

That's actually the size water I prefer and excel at fishing. My "home waters", Big Rock Creek and Littlerock Creek in the North side of the San Gabriel mountains above Palmdale would be about like that by the end of August most years and really brushy like that along a good bit of them. Fished them with a 9'6" 100+ year old split bamboo rod. Poked my rod with just the leader out and a #18 green mosquito through an opening in the brush and trees to a bend in the creek with a big maple growing on the opposite side and a huge root jutting into the creek. The sun was just beginning to set in the canyon. Monster Brown took it. I never stood a chance of landing it. It was all of 20 inches. I got to see and feel that big son of a gun on my line though. The rush of it was kind of indescribable. Almost like I would imagine a heart attack to feel, only good. Don't under estimate small water and the fish it can hold when there isn't much pressure. If you ever find yourself in that area, you should do yourself a favor and fish the two creeks. I've caught Bows, Browns, Cuts, Brookies, hybrids(cut-bows) and at least 20 Goldens(real Goldens, not Palominos) out of them, but that was 20 years ago when their were far less people, and who knows what the years of drought have done. I've seen vids on them from a couple of years ago and they looked different but healthy. And they were areas that were easy access, not the miles that I waded to get to. Lots of pools that would be great for your Tenkara gear. #14 to #20 green mosquitoes or Adams, and #14-16 elk hair caddis, you can't go wrong, and that's 365 days a year. Dries worked even when there was snow on the ground. I found the waters to be best around early June to early August. After the snow melt runoff slowed down a good bit, and before they slowed down too much. I'll never make it back to Cali so I don't mind giving up the spots.

I've fished that very spot with a spinning rod! It's such a beautiful place

thanks very nice video. which flies did you use?

Pretty

Are your modified Utah Killer bugs the same or do you tie different types? Weighted or unweighted?

Probably been asked before...do you use a strike indicator with this setup? Tough to tell from the video.

Easier access pretty much every time means poor fishing. Bush whacking into those overgrown stretches where no other "sane" fisherman would go paid off with some very nice browns. Good work.

And I live in utah imma fish every county as well and I'm gonna sub

👍👍👍👍👍 Done subs... nice catch bro ..

What kinda nymphs or flies are you using?

Very cool! what net is that you are using?

Brown trout are more adaptable to warmer water then other trout.

Where about Utah? Really good catches, I would take my 3 wt 7 ft rod on streams like this

Little pools sometime with biggest fishes

Do you belong to paradise??? I don't want to be suspicious but you don't 🧐🧐🧐!!! Just so jealous!!!

What is the triangular net that you use in your videos?

What is the length of your line and your rod please?

Can you show a closeup of the fly you are using in each video?

Are you barbless?

Isn't that it goes lol

What are your favorite flies?

I have really enjoyed your channel since discovering it. After watching your video about the 8.5' $4 rod, I went straight to Amazon and purchased the very last one and they will NOT be restocked. The $8 (2-pack) came yesterday and I am delighted. I have never owned or used a Tenkara Rod. My biggest hurdle is the Line(s). I don't mean length and strength, I mean... HOW DO YOU DO THE LINE? EVERY video speaks differently about it. Tapered lines, Straight lines, Tippets, leaders, etc. All the videos talk about buying certain lines 9', 10', 11', etc. The spools say 50m. How long is 50m? America wasn't teaching THE METRIC system when I was in school in the '60s. I have to learn a whole new measuring system to go fishing! I need 1st-grade instructions, with examples! Do you have any recommendations?

😕

I really don't like tenkara. I've never tried it, it's not the fact that I'm a big fish chaser. Hell my favorite rod is a 7 foot 2 weight. I can see how the simplicity would be alluring. But ill pass. Keep doing your thing though great vids.

Fishing with no real catching fish

It does not look real!

If you do not get baptized at least once, you are not a true fisherman...lol...
