I don’t know about you, but when I see the nose of a big trout break the surface as it feeds on tiny little bugs again and again, I get a rush of adrenaline and start stalking the feeding fish.

Hooking a big brown on a little midge — or even an ant, well, man, I just love it. Of course, watching somebody else do it when the spring weather is bad and the streams are running too high, well, that’s all right, too.

Of course, if you haven’t learned how to fly fish yourself, what’s stopping you? You can start with our “How to Get Started Fly Fishing” guide!

In the meantime, in this video clip, the guys from the Fishing with Ladin TV show offer up some brown trout action from the Owyhee River in Oregon.

Why You Can Trust Us to Make Unbiased Reviews and Recommendations

Man Makes Fire has been reviewing outdoor gear since 2011. We buy gear to evaluate and gear manufacturers occasionally ship review units to us to test because they trust the quality of our in-depth reviews. We carefully evaluate the gear in-person and review it only if it is very good, noting if it was provided to us. After the review, we return it, give it away, or use it for longer-term updates. We do not accept any gear in exchange for coverage. We only recommend gear we believe in, focusing on reputable companies, brands, and retailers we trust so that you have a good experience, too. When you buy using the retail links in our guides and reviews, we may earn a small affiliate commission that helps pay for our work. We take pride in delivering the unbiased advice and gear recommendations you need so you can choose the right gear for your own outdoor adventures.
