It's HARD TO BEAT a Tiny NC Brook Trout Stream...

In this fly fishing video, I explore a beautiful North Carolina mountain creek on a calm spring morning and share exactly why places like this made me fall in love with fly fishing. Small wild trout streams, clear flowing water, and quiet moments on the water are what fly fishing is all about, and this creek delivers everything I look for in a day of creek fishing. I spend the morning fly fishing pocket water, runs, and seams while drifting flies through classic trout holding water. This is relaxed, immersive fly fishing focused on reading water, enjoying the scenery, and appreciating the experience rather than chasing numbers. If you enjoy fly fishing small creeks, mountain streams, and wild trout water, this video is for you. North Carolina is home to some incredible fly fishing, especially in its small mountain creeks and headwater streams. These kinds of creeks are perfect for anyone who loves simple fly fishing, light tackle, and getting away from crowds. Whether you are new to fly fishing or have been doing it for years, this video captures the feeling of why we keep coming back to places like this. If you enjoy fly fishing for trout, scenic creek fishing, and peaceful days on the water, you are in the right place. Thanks for watching and I will see you out there. ___________________________________________________ Follow me on Instagram 📸: @fifthdayflyfishing _____________________________________________________________ List of Gear: Wet Wading Shoes - Korkers All Axis (https://amzn.to/4kAXeNT) Waders: Paramount Deep Eddy (https://amzn.to/42WaTdk) Boots: Korker’s Darkhorse (https://amzn.to/42TNVnh) Pack: Simms Dry Creek Z Hip Pack (https://amzn.to/4hxgCe0) Net: Fishpond Nomad Emerger [River Armor] (https://amzn.to/4hYdDuU) Rod Clip: O’Pros 3rd Hand Belt Clip (https://amzn.to/4hXwoyM) Net Clip: Broder Net Clip System (https://amzn.to/40TEKR7) Sunglasses: Flying Fisherman (https://amzn.to/44MtTtZ) Euro Nymphing Setup Rod: Moonshine Epiphany 2wt (https://amzn.to/3X2mweT) Reel: Lamson Liquid -3+ (https://amzn.to/4b1oT7t) Leader: Rio Technical Euro Nymph (https://amzn.to/4ioEuBc) Tippet: 5x Umpqua Phantom X Fluoro (https://amzn.to/4iqqeIc) 4wt Trout Setup TFO Blue Ribbon - 8’6” 4wt (https://amzn.to/4laZgVY) Reel: Orvis Battenkill Disc II Leader: RIO Powerflex Trout Leader - 5x Tippet: 6x Umpqua Deceiver X Fluoro (https://amzn.to/4e2Jqdi) 3wt Mid-size Creek Setup Rod: White River Bighorn - 7’6” 3wt Reel: Lamson Liquid -3+ (https://amzn.to/4b1oT7t) Line: Scientific Anglers Frequency - WF3F (https://amzn.to/3INPjQr) Leader: Rio Powerflex Trout 7.5ft 6x (https://amzn.to/3GuPf6D) Tippet: Scientific Anglers Absolute Clear Trout 6x (https://amzn.to/4pQfozd) 2wt Small Creek Setup Rod: Moonlit Lunar S-Glass 2wt [2024 model] (https://amzn.to/44ARC1R) Reel: Redington Zero 2/3 (https://amzn.to/3YCuMTG) Line: 406 Fly Lines Vintage Series DT2 Leader: Rio Powerflex Trout 7.5ft 6x (https://amzn.to/3GuPf6D) Tippet: Scientific Anglers Absolute Clear Trout 6x (https://amzn.to/4pQfozd) *These are Amazon Affiliate links.
