Fly Fishing Tiny Creeks is nothing new for us, but this got a little bit ridiculous!

In this video Andrew fly fishes a tiny creek that even I think is ridiculous. Most of the pools aren’t even ankle deep but held brook trout. As he headed down the creek he ran into some cutthroat trout, one of which surprised him by the sheer size of it. After catching tiny brook trout all day to see a 16-18 inch cutthroat trout sitting in a tiny pool is almost unbelievable. After changing flies several times the big cutthroat was put in the net and released safely back into the rocky mountain stream.
I hope everyone enjoys the video!!

What's with the net?
I fished a smaller creek than that, and caught a rainbow trout about the same size as the big one caught in the video. I was amazed. FISH ON.
plenty of smaller creeks that hold trout.
People should leave those little streams alone ! Takes a long time for some of those tiny trout to reach the six inch mark and how fun can it possibly be ??
do you edit and upload these videos from your phone or something? the bitrate goes to absolute crap sometimes, it's very unfortunate since it's enjoyable content
one word-Boots!
Must be the tail end of stream. Them moving up for spawning? I usually only fish the start of tribs or mid way up that's usually where most fish are
In such small creek it's easier to catch them by hand.
Nice, that fish was roughly 8 yrs old or so….
My Dad was a infantry Sargent in France during WW2 and told me this story. His squad was taking a rest after a long march and a French priest came by thanking them for fighting the nazi’s. My Dad asked him if there was a place they could catch some fish. The priest motioned him to follow, so after a short walk they came to this little tiny tiny stream and the priest points to it. My Dad said no no fish in there too small. The priest pointed to his eyes then excitedly pointed at the stream. My Dad took a second look and to his amazement there were many huge trout in that little 2 ft wide creek. He never did get to fish it, they got orders to move out immediately!
I used to fish like this and handle fish, until I learned that it often kills them. Not handling fish is easy if you use a release tool, like a Ketchum Release too. Only about $10 and never have to touch the fish, greatly increasing it's survivability. Tight lines!
Very creasy, saumon de fontaine un de mes poissons préféré, la rivière semble à la mienne, belle vidéo
I'm inspired. Thank you!
That was a beautiful cutthroat for the creek! I think I may recognize where that is. Maybe not though… lots of little creeks like that in Colorado. You guys are the kings of small water trout!
The year before Mt St helens blew I went to boy scout camp at Spirit lake there was a creek that ran right behind our campsite that was the size of the smallest spot you fished we were not supposed to fish it, but kids being kids……. a nice 8-12" cutthroat every 10' or so. So much fun. it was obliterated on May 18th.
Some of those creeks are so small I can't even see them!
Are you stupid?Why don‘t you eat that big fish???????🙈Please give me a reason i just can‘t understand it!!😭
This is a really great video, but I really and truly don't understand the net here. Most everyone I've seen using nets (in videos and on the stream) handle the trout much more than those without a net.
Love micro fishing😏
Hardman do I have a fly rod for I have a 5' for small w/ Orvis 3 1/2 fly reel 1oz. rod
That's so beautiful. Is that in Georgia?
Just returned from MT, looks so much like Yellowstone!! Awesome
Hello from the uk. Just found your channel buddy. Now that's my kind of fishing.
If you ever find yourself in the far north west of mainland Scotland, you'll find literally hundreds of little streams like the one here.
All the best.
Was that giant a golden trout? I think it was rather than a cutthroat.
It is wonderful and crazy to find beauty in the form of brookies in a tiny creek between two big waterfalls. All in a gorgeous steep environment where at time 11:00 of this footage you show us a stunningly beautiful specimen of cutthroat with that incredible amount of red colour…wow…indeed that climax does deserve that change in the background music.
Should kill the brook trout (required in some places). They outcompete the cutts and don't get as big (and are not native).
Props on all the catches man🙂👍….Well Done my friend.👊🙂 Love the vid and the SCENERY bro….DUDE! 🤯 Flippin GORGEOUS! You definitely got yourself in a spectacular place ta live…tons of lakes, streams, rivers plus the views to boot…I'd be lying if I said I DIDN'T wanna live there.🙏🙄 Oh, yeah, that was a serious BANGER cutthroat my friend! I mean, DAAAAAANG! To pull sumthin like that outta that little hole? P R O P S! Plz keep em comin and, as always, Peace.✌😎
Excellent skills and fish
So glad you catch and release!
Good gosh that was a massive fish for that small creek and probably the most beautiful fish I’ve ever seen!!! Thank you!!!
What a cool video. I absolutely love going to the back creeks in Wisconsin to hunt for bookies behind rocks.
…Awesome!…
Ahh I just soaked my butt lmao . Worth it for Beautiful scenery and fish . Great video . Keep it up .
I grew up fishing streams like this in Southern Colorado. Always fun. hooking a big one out of one of those little holes is such a rush. That cutthroat was gorgeous!
Amazing dude. I LOVE fishing for brookies in tiny impossible streams. Which stream was this man? Great cutty
This looks like a great time. I can only imagine how many snags I’d have in the weeds. Still would have a good time regardless.
That cuttie was crazy!
Great video. Love the scenery. I caught one of those native trout in Pennsylvania. Awesome trout. Challenging to catch
That’s legitimately an insane catch!!!! The color when it went over the falls looked like you dunked it in fresh paint 🎨
It makes no sense I tell ya. Maybe you should have got out a bucket and panned for gold!!!
