I've been a subscriber for well over a year, probably watched all your videos, even the very old ones....this is my first comment. I just wanted to tell you how much I really enjoy your videos Nick. You put so much work into making these videos. You have a GREAT eye for capturing your environment. You nature cinematography is absolutely fantastic. You pull the viewer in and make us feel like we're there with you. The music, your commentary, the scenery, and of course...the fish. I truly enjoy your content. Great job fishing in this one, love those little rainbows. I look forward to your next video....so, until then: "see ya later buddy" =)

We called those "Horned Daise" not sure what they were but they love stagnant or small creek waters. They were plentiful in our trout stream, and I caught them on red wiggler worms. They averaged 5 inches to 8 inches. Anything 7 inches and bigger we would keep and boil, then strip the meat, mix it with egg, parsley, paprika, bread and cracker crumbs, and fry them to a golden brown and eat "Horned Daise Chub" and tarter sauce sandwiches for lunch. With homemade fresh french fries. And Dog N Suds root beer.

We'd buy the brown plastic keg looking gallon of root beer and take it home. It would be finished at dinner, the whole gallon. No other root beer I've ever had came close to the flavor. Every now and then Dollar Tree and Big Lots has Dog N Suds root beer, and it's good, better than A&W (hard to beat A&W) but still lacks that foamy great root extract flavor of the old days.

That first fish was, in fact, a creek chub. They can attain a length of ten inches, but there have been records of 12” specimens. The tiny black dots are glochidia, a small parasitic stage of many freshwater mussels. They usually do not do great harm to the host fish, but mortality is possible. The fallfish several commenters have cited is exclusively an eastern species of the genus Semotilus (same genus as the creek chub). Fallfish can attain a length of nearly 20” - but any over 14” is considered very large.

Hi Nick, great video. I’m a Missouri guy myself too. If that is a Blue Ribbon stream you’re fishing, I’m not certain you can use treble hooks. I believe they exceed the maximum hook limit for lures and flies in those regulated areas. You may need to clip hooks or swap singles for the trebles. I do this regardless of the regulations. You may miss a fish or two, but it’s easier on the fish and better for mortality. I love your vids and look forward to the new ones every week. Fish On, brother!

Great day of Rainbow fishing/catching. Maybe someday you could come to Maine we have amazing Rainbows beautiful, strong, aggressive (tasty too if so inclined). I really enjoy what I call your "refrigerator bait selection" (the coloring, chicken, beef, pork, etc.) it's fun and very entertaining. Videos are fun to watch. A topic for future video, could you discuss the spillways you choose, are they from power generating hydro works, reservoirs, farm impoundments. just not a feature I'm familiar with. thank you wishing you a great Spring fishing season.

The dark vertical bars on the sides of the trout are called "parr" marks indicative of juvenile fish. I presume, and hope, this means the McCloud (River, CA) transplants are reproducing well in the lovely stream you visited in this video. Thanks
