Fly Fishing the East vs West: Who can catch the biggest fish?? (Trout Fishing)

Описание: This is the 1v1 to end them all! A brother vs brother, east coast vs west coast challenge to see who can catch the biggest trout in 4 hours!!

Andrew and I decided to do a challenge video to see who could catch the biggest fish in 4 hours... and the results may surprise you. Andrew was fishing in Colorado for brown trout and I was fishing in West Virginia for brown trout and rainbow trout. We each had our own issues to contend with... Andrew was dealing with the tail end of runoff while I was fishing the heat of the summer.

Andrew chose a technique of throwing jig streamers along undercut banks, a technique he has used to catch some absolutely massive fish before out west. The cover out west for the brown trout tends to be sparse with the exception of undercut banks, which give the fish an area to hangout and get away from predators.

I chose to euro nymph deep runs and holes since my issue was fighting water temperatures. I chose to fish a creek I knew really well, and focused on areas I knew had larger fish. I used heavy nymphs to get down deep to where the larger fish tend to hangout, and found areas that had slightly lower water temperatures because of spring influences.

Thank you so much for watching and if you want to see more East vs West challenge videos then let me know in the comments below!
