Great video- Looks like a lot of fun

Question- How the heck do you guys fight these fish for so long down river from your position without breaking your line/rod or back?
 
I didn't even use tippet bro - brown water = no need for finesse :p i straight up used orvis multi tip line with the full sink tip, attached to about 3-4 ft of 10lb mono, straight to the fly... when we hit the second trib, and the water had a bit more clarity, I had to increase my stealth :p
 
Thats insane! The weight of the fish + the fight of the fish + the pressure of the water and the line didnt snap!!?!?!?

I can tell you that woulda broke me 4-6lbs leader, and im considered a snagger.
 
that's funny-you really don't know why the term snagger is give to you instead of fly guys?

come on now, who said that the term "snagger" is given to any type of angler in specific. A snagger is a guy that snags fish, fly guys have snagged fish
 
Thanks fellas - in terms of the lining/snagging debate, please just stop lol that is NOT the topic of my thread.
 
Nice fish guys! Sweet video.

We all fish for the same reason weather its with a fly reel center pin or spinning. Who cares about the stereotyping, idiots come in all shapes and sizes.

I enjoyed watching you guys angle those fish from the raging river good too see someguys know how to put there gear to the test and be rewarded!
