NEW FEATURE VIDEO: “Choosing to CHANGE LUCK – Dave’s EPIC DAY”

There is a lot of great information & updates in this share! Please be sure to read these producers’ notes regarding the background to this video. It’s unlike any other you’ve seen as Dave digs in to the fishing – not something he typically allows himself to do on camera. We give an update to the coming months’ videos and features.

In the grand scheme of last year’s trip, we experienced a parade of compounding impacts of weather, tourism, severe drought, angling densities and other impacts that precluded me from having a magical run of a day. Amelia had lucked into a couple 1/2 days but I’d hit more of a dedicated plod of fishing. Knowing the trip was in its last week, knowing I love this short reach of water and knowing the weather was going to shift massively and cause a short day, she wanted me to have a go and experience even a 1/2 day of magic before the trip wound down.

The title of this video is an odd one but you’ll quickly understand. I lose a few fish at the beginning of the video because I wasn’t all in, mentally “going”. At the end of 3 months of van camping, taking on the conditions that change every single day and trying to not just plan that day but try to set up in a region based on the projected weather forecast and its impact on stream flows and trout… isn’t easy. Life in a van for 3 months driving about based on those anticipated conditions, finding camp sites, food, water, access permission… wears you down. A couple sleeping on a double mattress equivalent based on two 3″ sleeping pads in the back of a van gets rough. Especially when trying to cook, clean, sleep in howling wind, driving rain, insane & prolonged heat….
