The Most Beautiful Fish on Earth Live Here!!! (BIG BROOK TROUT) 

This was one of my favorite videos you have done. The stream was beautiful and the colors of the trout were some of the best I have seen. As a 67 year old it's hard for me to get into these places. Keep doing it so I can too thru your trips...thanks for going over your setup.

The trout at 14:15 experienced a period in its younger life where it was not getting enough food. As a result, it became stunted. Possibly it was trapped in a pool with more aggressive trout. This occurs with aquarium fish as well. The stunted growth is permanent yet the fish continues to grow with a disproportionate body and head. This is common with brook trout because the small bodies of water they inhabit tend to contain very little vegetation or aquatic insect life.

5:18 wow that is a beautiful brook trout!

At 6:00 try dropping a jig or something weighted down there...could be a pocket of cold water down there holding the grand-daddy of the stream!

Very cool spot...These places are getting rarer every day.

Thanks for not naming this spot. Truly is a hidden gem, yet can be found publicly. My favorite brookie fishing in the whole state of WV. Red chubbys work amazing if you ever go there again. Don’t know what it is but it’s only the red ones. Tried different colors on the same rig and they only went for that one. Beautiful content!

A beautifully produced video! Thank you for sharing these brook trout adventures with us. Gorgeous fish and fabulous streams - I’m sure I will never tire of seeing them!

Brilliant. A young man enjoying life,doing no harm and indeed being terrific towards the environment. How I wish I was younger and with him. Great videos?

Gorgeous stream - absolutely stunning fish. Such beautiful colors.

Great video Jon. Love the creeks you crt to fish on.

A truly magical place. The Brookies were as pretty as any I've ever seen. The incredible geological features of that area alone would make the trip worthwhile.

That has to be the most awesome native stream in the state! Huge holes and beautiful scenery!!

Another great video. It is good to see good water flow and that it is cold this time of year. Brookies are amazingly beautiful.

Quickly becoming a favorite channel. Outstanding content and only getting better!

the rod/line wiggle works incredibly well with top water bass flies too (bugle bullets, sam's one bug, etc...). one or two pops right after casting and then mostly wiggles is my technique.

That’s a beautiful location and some great brookies….you are blessed to be able to fish there!!!

Northern New England has the best portrait native Brook trout fishing

Those are some of the prettiest fish I've seen in a stream. We have some nice coloured trout over here in the UK but those you have there are prettier than ours. Your Creek also reminds me of a stream I have near me in Wales but we have a big problem with otter (Not so much the otter but those who re-introduce them without realising what an apex predator can do without having it's numbers controlled). Great video again. Please keep them coming, our trout season has just finished, so it's great to watch others.

Once again, I really enjoyed your video. It made me nostalgic for Appalachian brook trout. Beautiful fish from a gorgeous stream.

Awesome video. Some of the most beautiful fish and scenery. Keep up the good work.

“Almost Heaven” as they say! Well…maybe the people who started that saying didn’t come across this creek! They may have gotten close 😅😅….. sick vid as usual….. come join me to hunt brookies in the Catskills soon bro! ⏱ 👍

I'm heading out tomorrow to a gem of a pond in the Adirondacks that has Adirondack heritage native brookies (Windfall strain), and this time of year the males will be absolutely gorgeous. It's not unusual for them to measure 15"+.

Beautiful colors on the fish! Thank you for the rod specs! Always a good watch!

Now that’s some pristine trout fishing. Alongside your amazing editing this is an incredible video. Well done

One of my favorite vids of yours and I watch every one. That's some special water. You really captured it.

Ive watched this video at east twice and still amaized of the beauty of these fish! Thanks!

Wow, what a gorgeous spot, and a bonus with those beautiful Brookies!

Awesome vid - nothing better than exploring somewhere new. I do much more of that myself these days since starting this journey. Love it - Cheers!

I appreciate you taking care of your trout you catch, keeping them in the water and using a proper net. Keep up the good videos

Wow! Gotta Love the Brook Trout colors! Nice video.

Good watch. My best stream for brooks was lost. The fish just disappeared. Caught as many as 50 in a day some reaching 11 in big heads. It was the right hand fork of the Catawba River off Old Fort mountain N.C. Never figured out why it dried up.

Great video, loved the fishing experience you shared there. Really nice fish!

When a 10-11 inch Appalachian brookie isn’t you best brookie for the trip, it’s a great day

Trout do love real cold water .

That is a beautiful fish...we have some here in California as well as Golden trout in the Sierras. It's such a beautiful color.

I really enjoyed the video! The Brookie with the large head is an old trout .. It's likely his last season, & in the 5 year class .. When they get old, they aren't able to compete with smaller ones that they once dominated .. So they begin losing weight .. I've seen this many times with natives in the 11-13" class, at times a 10", usually late summer/early fall bc of the lack of aquatic insect hatches over the summer .. I've seen it many times with big old Browns, but rainbows to a much lesser extent...They have an extra muscular lobe of flesh absent in Brooks, or Browns, so it's probably not as noticable ... I've heard the tail mark dating story all my life but as far as I've been able to tell, it's not 100%, but will give you an idea that you can't count on as well as just length..(which isn't 100% either lol) .. But a 3.75-4.5" Native Mid Appalachian Brook (Char) is a 2 year old, and believe it or not, most are sexually mature, & able to spawn that 2nd season! Cool video man! 👍🐬🎣🌳🎶😎

I really enjoy watching your videos!

Well done man. Loads of good fish. But such great scenery. The stream was gorgeous and you did an excellent job of capturing it. Tight lines buddy and keep up the great work!

Awesome video bro, nice brook trout!

Bro out here making literal movies

A lot of gorgeous brookies. And of more than decent size too!

People dont like this?? Gimme a break.. great fish great quality.. great job man.

Great Video! Tons of nice brookies!!

when In was a kid, the bluegill out here were plentiful and thick, they too get some awesome colors. Great video

Outstanding video! I want to do this type of fishing so bad but here in southern Oklahoma we are out of luck. I do however, do some fly fishing for bass and panfish in some local creeks. Keep the great videos coming!!! Absolutely one of my favorite fishing channels.

Those are some freshwater creek sharks! Great vid bro!

Awesome work .

Wow😲 your videos are so awesome! I absolutely love them😍👌

When I found your channel the quality and content in general was so good that I thought you would have like 300k subs. I subbed.

A healthy native brook trout is beautiful enough to be considered a decorative tropical ft ish for an aquarium.

Nice days!

This is my kind of fishing...get out and beat the brush and go where others are unwilling. Here in Oregon we have coastal cutthroat...nice video

7:35 Nah man, when you hook 'em for a few seconds, and then they get off - that's an in-water release. You got the joy of the strike and the hook, and it minimizes trauma to the critter. I feel exactly the same way when they get off like that, but the older I get, the more I think, "That's pretty cool how it all turned out."

I have run out of superlatives to describe your adventures. Can't wait for the fall. Thanks!

Brook trout and Arctic Char are just on another level of beauty, eh? They are very similar but with don't have brookies in Sweden. Wich is a shame sort of cuz the char only lives in the northern waters. Could use a fish like this in the warmer parts ;)

You gotta get up to the Adirondacks some time. We have some really incredible brook trout fishing.

Beautiful area and beautiful tea colored water. Gorgeous brookies! Trout don't live in ugly places. Were some of those brookies the size of goliath? Enjoyed the video. Stay safe. 👍👍👍

Been away from the “tube” for awhile and just came across this. You have done a great job capturing my favorite “secret” spot! Well done! Let’s hope the place doesn’t get loved to death.

I’m a fishermen from West Virginia, I absolutely love these videos keep up the grind💪💪🔥

Awesome brother, I believe you've found heaven!

Awesome video and getting better and better 🤠

Gorgeous fish and AWESOME scenery man. Anutha great vid bro. 🙂👍 That "bottomless" hole you came across would be cool to check out underwater just to see not only how far down that goes but to see if there might be GIANTS lurking down there. Keep these comin my friend. Peace ✌😎

Stunning video!

Sweet hat

gorgeous!!! maybe your best video

Beautiful fish in that stream! If you ever wanna fish near charlottesville VA i know a spot where you could catch 30-40 brookies in a few hours easy

Man I really wish I could be out there so piece full I could just lay on the rock and listen to the stream

Gotta say bro best channel ive seen in a long time if your ever in arkansas hit me up we will hit cotter

Bro loved everything!!! Amassing stream, trout!!! Everything!!! Big brookie fan!!! Prior to you telling what your set was, I was and still will comment, if you want to enhance your brookie experience try a full flex 2 WT!!! I’ve had one about 10 years now it’s my go to rod for pretty much everything 8 foot gives you better reach on the small streams that’s a phenomenal Rod! You can fish mine anytime if you like! Keep it up , I’ll be up north after Em pretty soon myself!!!

Wow such beautiful fish great vid as always keep it up dude also I’m the first person here

Awesome !!

Take care if that stream. It's in my back yard lol. Good video and tight lines

If you can source the Elk Hair Caddis flies made with a foam body…they are money in the bank up in the northern/eastern part of the state. Good job, all around!

I still don't understand how the best fisherman, best videographers, best editors Don't have more subs. But yet A bunch of idiots have a million subs? You are one of the best on you tube.

Your brookies have a stripe pattern similar to a perch. They look a bit different than ours here in Quebec. But imagine brook trout in a little puddle!

If Brookie's got up to 60#'s they would tear your leg off! Great stream Great video!

Awesome video. Kinda new to fly fishing. About how long are these casts you’re making? Rod weight and length?

Wow! Really loved this video. I’m curious how the two biggest fish in this video compared to Goliath, because they both were huge. Thanks.

Outstanding content. I would have loved to sink a live worm down that abyss just to see what if anything lurked within the depths. However those brookies you landed will surely do. Also I totally understand the belly-crawl to sneak in on trout.

Great vid! sweet looking area as well. What gear are you using?

Great video. You mentioned a link to Red’s Fly Time. Can’t find it. Please post it here. .

🔥

I'm a Colorado fisherman. This reminds me of RMNP

if you could post some tips on fly fishing for beginners. I want to try fly fishing!

I just got my first fly pole it gets annoying when it gets tangled but super fun

You should shout out the place you got that hat I’ve been there it’s an awesome small business love the videos man keep it up

Trout are such a beautiful and vibrant colored fish I love fly fishing for them on a dry fly like I have done in some of my videos and there’s not many species as beautiful as a trout!

Just discovered your channel couple days ago and been binge watching since! Really good stuff, that's how I'd like to fish. What kind of rod you use on those small creeks?

Awesome natives, as usual! What state are you doing most of your brookie fishing in?

The only true native trout of Pennsylvania!!!!!!

You should get more in depth on what your flying 💯💪🏼

Not sure if you have the equipment to do it, but what would be cool is if you were able to get the fish smashing the fly in the areas where you about to sneak up on them. It would be awesome to see the hits in slow motion.

Just wondering about the tackle you're using in this video. What size rod, line weight, leader, etc.?

Where is this located and when did you catch them? This place looks awesome!

prettyyyyyyy ty wow

I’d be curious to know what you would catch in that hole if you dropped a worm into it.

Nice fish. Va?

👍🏻👊🏻🇺🇸

What is your go to fly rod?

what setup do you use?
