Ken Tanaka of Wish4Fish is back on the water. This time back on his favorite fly fishing stream the Henry's Fork, ID.
The Henry's Fork is a branch off the Snake River around Island Park, Idaho and it's my favorite stream in the world. I was lucky enough to be there for the peak of the Green Drake hatch and the Golden Stones were out as well. Needless to say it was fantastic fishing.
Shout out to Matt and Spencer of Northwest Trout Hunters

That was amazing. What a fishery. In other videos you talked about your set-up a bit more, but I didn't see it this time, unless I missed it. You were using a hopper/dropper rig here? Are you using 4X tippet? Also, you started off with a huge (appropriately huge) net, but then switched to a smaller one whic made netting those monsters a bit more challenging. Why did you do that? Someone mentioned this below, but I also liked how you left in some footage of trying to land a fish that was not as graceful as planned - like the rest of us! Awesome. Peace, dude.

@Wish4Fish 5 жыл бұрын

Thank you very much Tomas. My equipment is always in the description below the video. I was changing flies, set up and tippet too often to explain. This is also the case where I can't tell you what I was exactly using. Some stuff has to be kept secret ;-) The footage was edited out of order. I brought my smaller net because I didn't want to fly with my larger one. I use a hand made net from Japan that is made out of wood and extremely expensive. After a couple close calls a friend of mine gave me a Rising net which made life much easier.

Yes, that is a Japanese style net. Majority of the Japanese net makers use the curved handle. Thank you very much. I appreciate that. I am headed to Belize in a couple weeks so stay tuned! I will be live updating on Instagram if you're on there. Where about do you live? You can a very similar western river experience on the east coast as well. The Upper Delaware system or the South Holston are excellent examples. Bigger rivers with great bug diversity. Especially West Branch of the Delaware. Bigger rivers like that can definitely be a bit intimidating at first. Although, trout are trout and once you can read the river they will be in the same spots as small streams.
