Fly fishing for lake trout - Flathead Lake October 2018

Caught 3 fish I have never caught on a fly rode before: Lake trout, Superior whitefish, and a sucker! Overall had a blast fishing out on this huge lake. Lake trout are starting to come into the shallows, want to head back and see if I can break my own record again.

I searched “fly fishing flathead catfish” and this came up- I LOVE your reactions! Hope you’re doing well, keep up the good fishing videos 👍🏼

Looks like a beautiful day on the lake.

Quite the grab bag of fish, was not expecting to see a sucker. Definitely should get a bigger net for next time!

Great fun. You just dragging full sink IV and drifting?

Awesome! I'm trying to catch every species in Montana. I still haven't crossed off Laker, and I don't live far from Flathead.

Nice video dude, any suggestion on bait from shore?

Awesome Fish, I use a small float tube like you and have yet to catch a mac on the fly. Any spot recommendations for mid January on flathead?

[BryceHasquet]

Awesome video! I’ve been waiting for this one! This is one on my bucket list as well...wish I lived closer to flathead. How deep were you getting those lakers at in this video? I’ve heard they come as far in as 5 feet once they’re really going but don’t know too much about lakers. Nice pig!

Is a Mac another Name for a lake trout?

Looked like Goose Bay off West Shore Campsite.

Hope you have a bigger net from now on. That little Barbie sized net is going to burn you really bad sooner than later. I wish I had your email I got some brookies yesterday in MT that would make your brain explode.

liked this video when he said "the deeper something"

Very nice Fish... We usually make sure we have the size net to handle the size of fish we are targeting, as Fish handling in Catch and Release is # 1... Also we don't fish for Spawning Fish... Good video... Tight Lines...

They are invasive species buddy... for the guy who wanted to make the comment regarding spawning fish or are you in the "lets wipe out bull trout and cutthroats in favor of lake trout crowd on Flathead
' so dumb!
