The Bow River GRIND is a beautiful thing

In this video I am back fly fishing the Bow River around Calgary, Alberta, while out visiting family in the summer. This video spans 3 separate trips out at 3 different spots. The first day I met up with an early supporter and now friend, Rhetzky, who hooked the only fish, a nice looking 14-16 incher, on my streamer rod - sadly to lose the fish a few seconds later. We got the drone up in the air and took some cool aerial footage of the Bow River. The next session was a quick explore and didn't pan out, despite one missed hookset in good streamer water. Finally, the GRIND paid off at the third, nicest spot I visited. The Bow River Killer fly, a brown-red hybrid steelie worm, on the bottom of a drop shot rig, is always a good choice for big brown trout. This fish gave me a hell of a fight and took me down with the current, only to be landed in a nice eddy and released pretty quickly thereafter. All in all, I consider the bow river grind to be a beautiful thing when it all pays off in the end! Thanks for watching - I know this is a longer video but hopefully it's one you enjoy with coffee or in the background while doing chores! ;)
