FLY FISHING COLORADO | ONE OF A KIND SOLO ADVENTURE | The BEST & BIGGEST trout in the West?

Staring down the barrel of the Gunnison.. There's only one way the water flows folks..

Extreme is the only way to describe the conditions this world renowned river has to offer. Between the fly fishing and the hiking you are tested well beyond your limits at every bend. But that is exactly what creates an unforgettable memory that you can carry with you for a lifetime.

From its headwaters high up in the Rocky Mountains to where it dumps into the Colorado River, this famous river has earned its reputation. The Gunnison River offers up some of the best fly fishing in the entire Western United States. This video is proof enough.

This is a massive watershed that takes on different characteristics the further it flows. The Black Canyon of the Gunnison is where we were today. This section is what makes a river like this so appealing to the most extreme of fly anglers. The National Park allows for access to both the North and South rim of the Black Canyon. "Access" is used as loosely as the crumbling routes used to get down to the Gunnison. It is not easy to get in and its even harder to get out. But if you are willing and able you can be rewarded with some of the biggest fish of your life.

I am a recent subscriber, but I have to say, from one fly fisherman to another I truly appreciate your videos. You have a great talent for not only fly fishing but capturing what most fly fishermen truly enjoy about the experience. Thank you!!

Best fishing in this lifetime, grew up in Colorado, the gunni, and Blacks Canyon was one of my favorite with beautiful colored rainbows.

GMO BOWS! Learned something new today! I thought that fish was going to take you all the way back to Montrose haha

[chrisbegger]

Am addicted to your channel. A lot of fly fishing channels out there have the excellent cinematography and production you do, but unlike them, you shou us how, and most importantly WHERE we commonors can try and catch great Fish. I actually learn something from your vids, rather than just look at pretty scenery while someone els catches fish. Thank you

[RobReeseVO]

Absolutely one of THE best fly fishing videos on YT! Great production, video quality, action captures, music...everything in this video was perfect. GREAT host as well. You are very talented at fly fishing. Keep rocking these videos out.

Just stumbled across this video years later, but my best friend and I did this hike in the summer of 21. Needless to say, it almost killed us!! At the time I had never even trout fished, but I vividly remember seeing trout in the water while we were by the river. Skip forward 3 years, I have a newfound love for fly fishing, and I just want to thank you for this amazing video. What a trip down memory lane, and although I may never get to do the hike again (or be in shape enough to lol) I'm glad I got to witness the other beauties that canyon held.

Your best footage yet! Two epic "River Runs Through It" battles with those GMO bows.

[greglucero]

[marcbouchard]

Amazing!! The sceneries are incredible, the place is wild and the trouts are huge! you can't ask for more.

[johnmulholland]

That bit of history on the gmo bows is truly amazing what an incredible program you'd never hear of the likes of that here in the UK

Brand new fly fisherman here, and this is the first video I’ve ever watched on the sport and I’m absolutely hooked! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and love for the sport.

[michaelmccullough]

I have spent over a year and a half of my life directly in the bottom of this canyon fishing . Thanks for taking me back .

[scottrick]

Mike, you're a glutton for punishment! Taking on a canyon like that for a day is impressive.
Congrats on a fantastic day!💪

[Jbcustoms]

Your the freaking man!! Great video! What an adventure! Hard hike, injury’s, and big fish make for a great story. Keep up the good work. Your my favorite to watch! Much love from Missouri!
