Fantastic video. Kenny's really getting pretty good at putting these together. My favorite part is when I get a major award. The Ike Turner Award I believe. I also loved the part where you're explain about sighters and you get a take. Very cool.

Gotta love the Ike Turner award. lol I guess you could also tell that I wasn't very happy when the pig broke me off toward the end!! :)

Awesome video, Kevin! Really dig the commentary and the pigs. I bet you were wishing that camera was not on you right after that LDR, so that you could appropriately address the incident :). I don't know that I would be able to contain myself in the same situation. Great work all around.
Thanks for sharing.

You can imagine what was going through my mind. :) Kenny had said that there was a big one 27 to 28 inches that stayed in the same area. We walked up there and there she was. He asked if I wanted to try to catch her and I said I would give it a shot. I walked up the road a bit and hopped in the river and then made my way down slowly to not spook her. I made one cast and was drifting it through her territory and BAM!!! I set the hook and she tore off to the other side of the river towards a tree under the water. I tried to slow her down and get her away from there and.................well you saw the rest of the story. :)

Very nice Kevin. Very informative on comp fishing and great job by Kenny. I hope people watching noticed how you handled big fish. Get that head out of the water and you can skim them right to the net. That's the reason we can land some of those monsters on a 3 wt or 4 wt rod.

NICE video Kevin...very informative and great videography w/music and commentary.

Of course, it must be nice to be filming on "Frog-Hollow" where the hogs are lurking...

Thanks for putting together and giving some tips for "rookies" like me always seeking to absorb from the wisdom of others...

Very nice! And not sure why, but after watching this video, I have this nagging feeling that I need to make sure that all of my stuff is adequately insured? :)

Great video. Could you give us some more detail on what flies you use for the nymphing? I love line watching and then setting the hook.

The flies I was using in the video were olive leech and walt's worm.
