In this series, I'm Fly Fishing Wyoming. The trip started in the Bighorn National Forest. Wyoming is truly a special place full of outdoor adventure and for the next two weeks, I'll be living out of my truck exploring the area. A map is definitely needed (get one at the Fly Shop Bighorns in Sheridan), cell service and mapping apps don't line up. There are unlimited dispersed camping options available in the area, as well as National Forest campgrounds if you prefer developed sites. It was a great time, looking forward to exploring more of it next year! Part 2 below...

Love my Wyoming 💜 My Grandfather worked for the Forest Service in the Bighorns, during the 50's/60's he helped build many of the forest Service roads. We did quite a bit of fishing in the70's...On the Shell/Greybull side..mainly in the smaller brooks..(since we were little kids).. We would clean the fish.and take them back to camp..grandma would cook them in cast iron skillet over the fire. With fried potatoes, and Corn on the Cob.....Yum😋 If I could only go back in time...🎣

Wyoming is a state of contrasts. Around the Big Horns and the Wind River range you have millions of acres of country like this. Then, the rest of the state is rangeland and some truly desolate high desert. One thing I love about Wyoming is the small Western towns. Extremely clean and friendly.

Hoping you can recommend the most effective sunglasses for both Wisconsin and Wyoming conditions. I tend to favor smaller streams but fish both wooded areas and open pasture etc. What do you like for lens type, lens colors, and any other factors to help see the best I can. Brand and model recommendation would be great if you are willing. Thanks!!

love the videos my man. You find some great spots that'd I'd love to fish. One request...would love to not only hear about rod weights but also your full set ups. Yarn indicators, dry droppers, tippet size and length, etc. Curious what produces so well besides your skillz of course.

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

Yes sir, will try to add more of the finer details into the videos. Definitely a learning process but really apprechiate the feedback!

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

So in this vid and most of this trip was throwing my orvis h3f 10' 4wt. Mirage reel with SA amplitude infinity. Leader, 9ft 3x with 1ft of 4x tied on....then a medium tippet ring with 4x to the first fly. That gives me 11ft system to work with. Indi: dorsey yarn or air lock depending on how much weight I needed. Let me know if I missed anything...no secrets here!

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

Very cool...I do like seeing the rattle snakes from a distance. Just not on uneven ground where I could be off balance. Never considered the moose really, but have heard similar stories about their unpredictable behavior. Had a buddy meet me for a few days and we unknowingly, walk up within 25 yds of a big bull, fortunately it went the other direction....but those hooves clicking on the rocks was creepy!

Beautiful streams in wild Wyoming. New subscriber. Also new to fly fishing, What is the small marker a few feet above the fly? Is it where the line attaches to the leader.

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

There really are! I believe you're referring to what most call a strike indicator. In this case, it was yarn that basically lets me know when a fish takes the fly. I have a video in my channel that goes through the types of indicators I use and why. Might be worth a watch but feel free to email me or ask any questions you have.

@briankelly6113 3 года назад

Do you find that you feel the takes when nymphing before seeing the strike indicator or vice versa? I've never really used one. I use a braided loop connector that's a different color than the line so I kinda watch that but I usually feel the takes first if I'm keeping the slack out of the line. I guess I'm just not sold on a bobber on a fly line...

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

No, usually have slack thrown in to get a natural drift so I rely on watching the indi move!

My dad and I were supposed to go to the Bighorn tail water again this summer - it’s been an annual trip for a few years - but COVID prevented us. You’re not far from there.... please keep the videos coming. Fly fishing videos like yours are one of the only thing keeping me sane right now when I am totally grounded due to COVID and remote learning school for my kids.

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

Well hope you guys can get out there again soon! Definitely have several more from this trip coming out!

Nice, I go to this river every year but don’t know that spot. Would you be open to sharing the location ?

@coleb5188 2 года назад

Which river is that?

@randyneilson7465 3 года назад

So beautiful. But please for us beginners, identify different species. Thanks

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

Will do more. Thank u for the feedback.

You may have mentioned it before, but what map app are you using? Base Maps

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

No apps on my phone. Aside from googlemaps at home, atlases and forest svc maps. My cell can barely keep up with instagram!

What stream are you fishing Drew? Those are some nice trout.

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

Sorry man I don't share stream names....never know who will see it. Just general areas...figure the person willing to do a little research won't burn it!

I fished Wyoming but i can't help to think that Idaho has way more Westslope cuttys, bull trout and brookies

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

I don't doubt it and plan to get there soon but Wyoming is 22 hrs drive which was all I wanted this year lol!

@kvzaustin 3 года назад

Was that a handgun on your right hip? Do you normally carry, or is that for bears?

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

Yes, just for bears. Also have bear spray which would be my first option

@kvzaustin 3 года назад

Interesting. I back-country fly fish in Idaho all the time, and always wondered if my bear spray would be enough.

@LooknFishy 3 года назад

IMHO, my thoughts are mostly yes...but there might be that one time it doesn't work and I'm forced to fend off a predatory attack. Especially with a black bear! Grizz...spray would absolutely be my first choice. Difference being w/ a handgun, you probably just need to hurt a black bear to deter the attack. Grizz...you're going to have to kill it and that would be super challenging with a handgun. Actually saw a black bear on this trip and the speed that he left the trail and climbed over the ridge was amazing...he was gone in 20secs. It would have taken me 20 mins to climb that ridge....I reached for the spray as my first option and would do it again.
