That would be fun to do with the hook clipped, just to watch the rise...

great vid.  I'm not a fly fisher yet, but I can see doing more of that as the bones get less excited about hiking!

Many times it takes lots of hiking to get to the spots I prefer. :)

Wouldn't that be pointless? :)

That appears to be a rather barbed question... :P

Great video. Great fish really liked the Grayling.

What weight rod was he using?

Oh I'm so envious.

Maybe Yellowstone May/June to get my fishing in.

Thanks for the video. As a side bar,watched several Todd Snider music videos attached after.

Computers so much fun.

Probably a 5 or 6 wt rod. In most shots i noticed that he was fishing with a rod with out a fighting butt. The angler is Brian O'Keefe, an amazing angler!

Thanks. I usually use a 4 weight bamboo,but have a 4/5 9' Thomas and Thomas and a 4 9' L L Bean.

Most of my fishing is on small streams and I like the 6.5' bamboo.
