I'm truck camping and fly fishing thru Colorado and Wyoming over the next 2 weeks. I spend a week truck camping all over Colorado and fish several epic streams before heading to Wyoming for my second week.

One thing I like about these streams is how unique the habitat is. So many tiny waterfalls, beaver dams, deep pools, riffles, I find it so amazing. Loved the video, thanks for sharing!

This is the kind of diversity (of fishing habitat) I can live with. Love that bow and arrow cast! However, where you find browns, cutts ad brookies, I HIGHLY recommend you keep some browns for dinner. Otherwise they will delete the cutts over time.

Great Video! Always enjoyed watching your videos. Truck Question: After all the trails you've gone through, is the Chevy Colorado needed for tight vegetation roads, or can I get away with a full size truck F150/1500? I'm trying to decide on needing the towing capacity vs skinnier truck for trails. Thanks

@LooknFishy 9 ай бұрын

Ime, you'll be fine in a full size truck. The mid size is fun to drive on those roads but in reality it just gets me a little off the main road...some atv trails that don't really get me closer to fish. Some accesses that save a mile of hiking (where guys might park and unload atvs for example) and definitely some less popular out of the way dispersed camping sites. But the mpg is what I appreciate most over my titan. 21 from 13 is a lot when you're trying to stay out for days or weeks. I do miss the living space in the bed....especially on bad weather days. I'm 50/50 on going back to a full size truck with a 6ft or larger bed when I need to replace or start bringing my wife.

@@LooknFishy bummer about the whole GoPro situation. Sorry to hear that. On the flip side I’m glad to see you were able to get away some. I thoroughly enjoyed your trips last summer and the summer before. You explore and fish exactly how I like to do it (even some of the same places I’ve noticed). It’s great stuff. Wouldn’t mind watching some video of camp life on these trips if you are up for adding new content. 😉

Hi Drew. I had my GoPro 11 stop recording recently and read an error message about my card not being the proper quality for recording in 4K….I used the same card all of last year with zero problems (sandisk extreme). I downloaded the videos from the card and reformatted the SD card in my GoPro and zero problems since….go figure🤨

Can you provide any advice on how to find these types streams off the beaten path? I don’t have a 4x4, do I need one to explore what look like BLM areas or are you just blue lining/exploring all over?

Got 2 vids on my channel that go into how I find streams. 4wd is definitely helpful in some situations but high clearance is more important imo.
