Big water, Big flies, Big opportunities

Home from an incredible week on @restigoucheriverlodge searching for the First Giants of the season.
You come here with the chance at a Fish of a lifetime and perhaps the first in North America of the year. And although we didn’t have an encounter, the chance and opportunity is what keeps you coming back.
It should be any day they see the first bright. And it’s sure to be a memorable one in this special place.

The people and place are what made this trip a success, even without “the big Bright” to hand. It was a pleasure spending time with @fishhuntplant @nathanplam , @scottysherin @sinclairtiedflies @restigoucheriverlodge shooting for @looptackle
And all the wonderful guides and staff at the Restigouche River Lodge make it the perfect start to the season.

Thank you all so much!

Out Fishing | Ep 2: Sea Trout in Sweden 🇸🇪

In the second episode of our new YouTube series - Out Fishing - Ali heads to the thawing north of Sweden to fish for early season sea trout.

Join him as he breaks down the tactics, setups, and decisions behind a day on the water with one of the best in the business - Brand Ambassador Jacob Eliasson @flyfishingstories.

Watch it now via the link in our bio or story.

#looptackle

Some frames slowed down and mostly from between casts when we were shooting an episode for Loop’s Youtube series in southern Sweden recently - because life a bit slowed down, sometimes just makes you feel good, doesn’t it? 🙇🏼‍♀️🦋🍃🐳🐞🌲🐻🌿 pc @tedlogardt 👑

We are currently filming in New Brunswick on the Northwest Miramichi River, documenting striped bass populations that have risen to unimaginable numbers and come up the river to spawn. I’ve never seen anything like it—it’s truly a story of abundance and the come back of this wild native species.

But this remarkable resurgence of striped bass here in New Brunswick comes at a cost for Atlantic salmon. It’s a powerful reminder of how delicate the balance is within these ecosystems. I hope that one day, both of these wild fish can thrive together—and that the actions being taken will help move us in that direction.

When the temperature reach ~9 degrees celsius, post spawned fish start to move out to the sea, but its also the prime time to meet some chromed seatrout in the rivers.
I’ve had some really fun fishing with the @looptackle - Z1 11’ 4 weight - Switch 👌🏼

Great couple of days filming with this epic team on the Restigouche River 🇨🇦 for a new @looptackle Wild Fish / Wild Places episode.

Thanks to all the crew from the @restigoucheriverlodge for the great fly fishing vibes. Hope to see you all again soon—and good luck chasing those Restigouche giants!

Colt experienced his first heartbreaking fish loss at the age of 3 😅

It was so sad & so sweet at the same time

Feels good to be back on the river! I am on the restigouche river at @restigoucheriverlodge for the next few days filming a new episode of wild fish / wild places with @katesherin, @sinclairtiedflies and @scottysherin in search of our first atlantic salmon of the year. The conditions are perfect and I feel it’s only a question of time before someone hooks up to a Restigouche River giant.
