While I’m not sure my farming friends would be too happy at the animal husbandry on display by the dog early in the video, I’ve got to say I envy having this sort of wilderness fishing on my doorstep – anyone planning a trip out to Alberta this summer need only to watch this video to get themselves in the mood for some fine sport.

Just make sure you take a decent sized landing net!

This water is gin clear, and the fish seem to be readily receptive to a well fished fly. What more could you ask for?

In any case, if you can’t get there just yet, at least you can enjoy the video!

While it is rather flashily put together, you can’t argue with the fish in this video – it makes me itch to get to New Zealand and start fishing.

There is a section mid-way through which shows the contents of a monster trouts stomach – there are more than 5 mice in there: probably prompting the theme of this whole video.

I just love fly fishing videos and watching the tactics employed by fishermen around the world: love the casting techniques and the innovative ideas on display here. Most of all, however, the size of these rainbows and brownies is truly astonishing!

Trout fishing in New Zealand just bumped up a couple of spots in my “things to do” list…

Hope you enjoy the video.

Watch how he gets on:

Rex Hunt is a man who really loves his fishing!

Some excellent sport.
