Very nice.
It would be interesting to see what flies you are using. Do you tie your own or where do you get them?
Hadn’t the chance to dig into these. Pretty awesome videos and wow…you fish some beautiful water. You are lucky to have access to such nice water. Thanks for sharing.
@cc121 I tie them. I use one fly for basically all of my fishing:
@Gressak Thanks, I’m glad you like them. And yep, I’m lucky to be able to fish some really beautiful places!
In this week’s video I fished the Uinta Mountains of northern Utah for the first time. This is a mountain range I love and that I’ve spent a fair amount of time in, but this was my first visit since getting into tenkara. Anyway, I caught my first tiger trout and had a great time checking out the perfect little meadow stream above it.
In the Driftless Area of SE Mn tiger trout are relatively rare and come from wild brookies mating with browns. I was lucky enough to land my first one this fall on a hopper. The stream holds wild reproducing browns in the lower reaches and wild brookies closer to the source of the creek. They sure are gorgeous.

Amazing coloration to this trout, WOW!!
“Is this real life?” -lol
Congrats on the surprise Tiger!
Thanks for another great video!
@dpnoll So those are wild tiger trout? Huh. I didn’t think that was possible. Must be really rare. Beautiful fish!
They are quite rare but the trout expert at our fisheries office says he nets some every now and then. One of my best friends caught one last year.
Wow, no idea about wild tiger trout. Makes Tristan’s catch even cooler!
I cant seem to hook small fish, here is another short video of me losing a good fish when the hook pulled on a small hidden river.
Beautiful river. You do not fold the rods when moving from one place to another?
A very Big Thank You to all the members for sharing their videos, pics, and info. Amazing!!!
I second this! Love the videos!
@HowieNZ1 My heart sank along with yours when the fish came off
Vladimir, I am still working out the quickest way from exiting one point to getting to another while avoiding line tangles or breaking my rod. I have only been fishing with a Tenkara rod for two months.
In the video you go from one fishing spot to another section of the river. Wanted to find out you don’t put fishing rods when crossing?
I’m sorry, there may be difficulties with the translation.
While disappointed not landing it. i feel privileged to have fooled the fish into taking my fly and in awe of the fight the fish gave.
