As a kid we used to fly fish in the High Sierras (California) mountain streams, pools and rivers. Low growth trees and shrubs would line the sides of the rivers and we’d crouch there in the shadows
and carefully cast out.
I remember looking down into deep pools and seeing the biggest trout just lazing away there. They were far too wise to go for our hand tied flies.
But we caught plenty in the shadows and had great fish dinners!
Tom, Mossy has really upped their YouTube game. I have really enjoyed the new series on small streams and agree 100%. I have found that the largest trout in my beloved creeks are often in that cushion or right at the lip of the tail out.

This video reminded me of those great times!
Thanks!
The memories are often the best reward for getting out and fishing. Thanks for sharing yours!
Some very good points called out in your post, looking forward to watching the Mossy Creek video.
P.S. hope your bracket isn't already busted. (Not unlike the U.S. Senate apparently)
Good stuff in the video, better than either my bracket or the Senate. Nick did a nice vid on the TUSA Ukiyo. https://youtu.be/qMcPTFwsPKI?si=uypD8K8_JwuuEd11

They sure have! This is first rate info for sure. And to see someone of Brian's skill level demonstrate is fantastic.
