Fly Fishing in Glacier National Park
Fly Fishing in Glacier National Park
We brought a fly rod along on our family vacation to Glacier National Park and had several opportunities to do some fishing in multiple regions of the park. Not only did we get to experience some of the beautiful scenery of the Rocky Mountains but also caught several fish, including some native west-slope cutthroats! This was a trip I will never forget. Hope you enjoy the video!

When Plan B is actually Plan A…hah great video.
Thank you, for an absolutely wonderful video!
Its brook trout bro. Nice catch.
New rule: if you feel you MUST hold a fish out of the water for a photo op then YOU HOLD YOUR BREATH TOO. HOLD YOUR BREATH THE WHOLE TIME THE FISH IS OUTA THE WATER!!
Which spots did you fish? I’m going in a week and am incorporating some fly fishing into my hikes.
Hey guys, just wanted to tell you that this is one of my favorite fly fishing videos I’ve ever seen! I’m from Oklahoma but my heart is in N.W. Montana. Been there and loved it! I’m just now trying to learn fly fishing but would love to try it in Glacier National Park. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Even in MT you guys can’t even break 14"!! Absolutely amazing. A real handicap taking away those barbs and the nets huh?! And just because the system is oligotrophic doesn’t mean inverts, especially macros inverts, are limiting to the population size or the size of the trout. Do you even science, bro? Rainbows aren’t even native to the area!! Good video quality, bad video content.
This was a great video to watch very beautifully done. I’m 60 and new to fly fishing so I used your video is a tutorial I’m looking forward to seeing more
What were the names of the trail hikes you showed at the end of the video? Great views!
Great video! Very beautiful place! I live in Russia, and your videos help me learn English. Thanks! In my country fly fishing is rarely occurs so it very interesting for me. (Sorry if i wrote somthing wrong)
You need a big gob of worms on a #4, or #6 eagle claw hook. That’s how you get the big trout!
Nice video but you need to bend the barbs and try not to handle the fish if you can – will ensure a much higher survival rate
Beautifully filmed, and very well done overall. What a wonderful experience. The fish at the 18min. mark were gorgeous! I am for eating the rainbow anywhere in cut territory. Only one thought if you don’t mind: Too much false casting will really cut down on your takes.
Breathtaking scenery. Great picture
저도 이런 멋진곳에 가보고 싶어요~

You called avalanche lake, high alpine lake
The best part about this video is I recognize most of the places you’re fly fishing. I live about 20 minutes away and learned to fly fish in the park. I’m glad you enjoyed.
Beautiful video!!!
19 min. video and 7 ads, really YouTube.
Very well put-together video by two very nice young men. Thank you for sharing!
Holding catch and release fish in the centre, out of the water, with one hand damages their nervous system resulting in a mortality rate of 80% within 3 days of release.
Do you even fish bro? No net rookie!!! Oh your video needs more adds.
Montana resident for +5o years the best fly fishing in my opinion are Big Mo, Gallatin river, Madison, Big hole and the Yellowstone !! but my favorite getaway is with out a doubt is the Mussleshell. Glacier park is my favorite park in the united states, with the Frank Church river being my second choice with Yellowstone NP. love your guy videos, a little more panoramic views would be appreciated !!!
{Musselshell on fly rod with 3-4 b small mouth is a fisherman’s thrill. I have caught the occasional 5 pound bass, what a fight.
cutthroats up north are plentiful and big, you got walleye 5 pound browns 12" brook and some rainbows. There is also paddle fish in the lower parts. SSSSSShhhhhh secret }
Excited to see the great feedback we are getting on the video! If you love fly fishing and being outdoors as much as we do, subscribe to keep up to date on our new videos!
Tight lines and Merry Christmas,

Great video and good spot….👍👍👍
What time of year did you go?
i just loveee the smell of trout on my hands
Another good vid! Subbed!
Is it worth it to bring waders with me? Looks like you did lots of fishing from the side of the rivers. Going there in September with the family. I’m the only one fishing. (Similar situation as you). Trying to minimize the luggage. Great video!
Check out this fly fishing app, its an award winner, https://youtu.be/94QJok8gfvw
That fish definately wasnt a rainbow. It looked like some hybrid of the golden trout
Hi! Which camera did you making this video? 👍
Sounds like PA native. Great footage. Enjoyed watching
Any grizzly bear incidences?
The place truly magical. Nice healthy native trout n da ones u mentioned tiny rainbows its called brook trout..doesn’t get much big.
Noticed that you both were catching very little brook trout toward the end of your video. And yes, it’s always great it you can get outside with nature.
In the park, can you spin or only fly fishing is permitted?
It’s a scene from the movie.
make sure you guys hit the N. Fork of the Flathead on your next trip. Rent a raft and float that sucker, gorgeous, and tons of fish (not a lot of size but there are some good ones)
What did you say? "you literally can’t touch one" like to remove the hook? its like falling in a cave and the guide says "uh, well you’re really not supposed to touch them"……
Hello,do you know why the trees did die at 1.26 min ,17 min and 18.05?Thanks.
Your camera looks great! What are you using?
#onemorecast haha awesome video!
Leave those little trout alone. Fish for the big ones with a hornberg, muddler, gray squirrel tail, white maribou, jassid, adams, cahills, and maybe even some concoction made from feathers on an old lady’s hat. My cousin once caught a 16 inch, two pound brook trout on some wet fly that he tied on his first cast.
😀
Is this a fishing vid or a talking vid?
A tenkara rod would have been great. Wind and deep pools not ideal for it though.
