Bobber Fishing
Tie on one or two of your best chironomid pupa patterns and rig up an indicator so that your flies suspend just over the bottom, cast out, watch and wait – bobber fishing. At best it’s non-stop fish catching action, one slab trout after another, pure evil genius madness.
The chironomid faithful fish from prams and use depth finders, thermometers, stomach pumps, bug nets, fish nets and a color-c-lector. The rest of us stillwater geeks fish from whatever floats, tie on a black pupa and a San Juan Worm and call it good. If that doesn’t work right away crack a beer, have a twist of tobacco and fire up the hibachi. Spend the day eatin, drinkin, spittin, and fishin - you probably deserve it.

nothing says “prepare to be amazed” like footage that is so heavily treated, you can’t see a damn thing
never has sitting and waiting been so aggressive and hardcore

Someday I’m going to make a kickass film about long, tedious hours of catching nothing, set to the greatest hits of Yanni. It will be sick.

Forest lake, when it’s on - it’s friggin ON. But it probly took em 2 weeks to film that, because it’s usually not on.

“set to the greatest hits of Yanni”
according to a certain boat sticker floating around, Yanni would not be badass, smiff.
