hello YouTube nation this is Jesse from instafishing.com welcome to my man cave
0:08
it's actually more of a very dirty storage room and furnace room that's
0:14
probably the buzzy here there but this little four feet of space this is this
0:21
is what I this is where all the magic happens by magic I mean fishing
0:25
preparation tackle all the storage whatnot you can see my little wannabe
0:30
makeshift wall there this is where I have a lot of fun anyway today I'm not
0:36
gonna talk too much about this spot maybe I'll give a little tour in another video but tonight I just want to talk a little bit about fishing the Capilano
0:43
River it's mid-july right now the water is really low fish are not getting up
0:49
the river they're kind of just hanging out in the pools up above and their
0:54
mouths are shut it's pretty hard to fish when the water is low like this good
0:58
idea is to toss out tiny little spinners spoons this year I haven't had a chance
1:04
to get out too much we just wrapped up a huge renovation so I have not had a
1:09
chance to get out there very often the few times I did I was skunked but I had
1:15
a great time but yeah tomorrow I might go tomorrow morning and bring the camera
1:18
along see what we can get into but yeah tomorrow I was thinking about trying a few things I'm definitely gonna bring the little spoon spinners like a blue
1:24
blue fox one of my favorites is a copper size two I've had really good success
1:31
with that actually probably more success than with that lure than I've had with
1:34
rope this is the bad boy right here just one of them you'll be able to see
1:52
that anyway this guy he works great on the Capilano River when when the
2:02
river is low even smaller that might even be a bit big actually now that I
2:07
look at it one I think it's gold I prefer copper but using I think I just had a hit which
3:08
is actually surprising first cast there a little bump may have been from a smolt
3:20
so the blue fox isn't working so I've changed to a little kind of a quick
3:27
for what these are called it's got some erratic action it's very different not
3:31
something I typically use but I've had a lot of smolts interested in it whoops
3:38
and I'm casting it so a lot of smolts have been following it so maybe that'll
3:43
be maybe one of the the grandpas will bite it lots of fish I can see a lot of
3:52
fish in the water right now they're just cruising along having nothing to do with
3:57
anything here beautiful
4:14
as you can see that's the bridge here this is the fishing boundary you can't
4:19
fish beyond that just up the river is the Capilano hatchery I think a fly rod is probably your best bet here because they are surfacing
4:38
something very small whatever it is it's gotta be small now the problem with this spot as you can probably tell if I if I get a fish
4:58
how do I land it I've seen guys with really long nets fishing here which is
5:03
the way to go but my plan of attack is tow it up I'll play him out a little bit
5:14
and then just one heave-ho bring him up the water is so low that I can actually
5:19
get pretty close down there and I might even just around the bend here might have better access just down there I can see a guy's got a little one over there
5:27
on the fly just a little gaffer
5:38
Oh you get the net oh hard to tell if that's a resident trout or a coho
5:56
well that about does it no bites I can see a lot of fish in there they're just
6:03
they're not taking anything saw one guy hook one on the fly it seems like
6:08
something like that size is the only thing that's getting any sort of action
6:13
anyway a lot of fun do my hair do the hair all right
