Going out this Saturday with Finger Mullet fly pattern

I got home from fishing for endangered fish today. My wifes boyfriend portrays it being as easy as pitching a big streamer into a hole and they inhale it. It’s nowhere near that simple in reality.

To say the least, the fishing was pretty bad. I fished 50-100 hours a day and caught one foul hooked, ugly, ungrateful bull trout. I threw $100 worth of flies and lead on the bottom of the river as a sacrifice, but it made no difference. Basically nothing happened. I randomly caught that one fish 3 hours in to the trip, and didn’t touch a bull for the rest of the trip.

It’s pretty disappointing, considering that my dad spent over $100,000 dollars on this trip (gas for the plane (my wifes boyfriend has a pilots license), tons of streamers, food, booze, ammo, strippers and a place to stay), which is a lot of money for an 12 year old fly shop employee.

If you had a trip like me recently, keep your dick up, a fish might bite it!

Hey guys. Wife’s boyfriend is in town for the weekend, so I’ve been given a few hours of unsupervised outdoor time and was hoping to try fishing somewhere new.

Unfortunately, I suffer from a rare condition that makes me physically incapable of opening Google Maps, looking at satellite imagery, reading fishing reports, or calling a local fly shop. Somehow I’ve managed to overcome this disability long enough to make a Reddit post.

Now, I know asking for spots is frowned upon, and I would NEVER expect anyone to give away their secret honey holes. I’m just wondering if someone could provide some exact GPS coordinates, parking instructions, which rock to stand on, what flies to use, and preferably what time the fish are going to be biting. If you have a picture of the exact run with the fish circled in red, that would be amazing.

And don’t worry about me blowing up your spot. I’ll only post the full location in the title of my post to the fly fishing sub after foul-hooking an 8-inch stocker on a Panther Martin (couldn’t remember how to use my fly rod, luckily I brought my backup setup)

Thanks in advance! Tight lines

I'm shadow-banned from that sub, so I can't comment and help this guy out. But all he needs to do is show his butthole on OrvisFans and he'll get comped a bunch of gear right?

Love this new pattern from Cheech at FlyFishFood!
Tie it in black to match your wife’s boyfriend.

Swam away fine.

Man I just love walking the river in the fall weather, happy Friday yall

So I don’t think many people here are going to dispute that Simms (and to a lesser extent, Orvis) seems to be the kit of choice for rich dipsh*** who can’t fish. Basically the BMW or Tesla drivers of the fishing world.

Anyway, I finished a slightly disjointed marathon of the entire Yellowstone series about mid week. In season 3 the main antagonist Roarke Morris is a Simms guy. I genuinely feel like the depiction of him is a pretty spot on stereotype and f someone wearing simms stuff.

For those that have watched the show, what do you think.

For those that haven’t, what are your experiences with folks who are diehard simms fanboys/girls?

About to catch and release these hands
