Excellent content Mike.
Much appreciated!
Actually Alex the unbelievably picturesque scenery and promotion you have done of the South Island and back country rivers since ditching the Taupo district says far more about the greed of the local Waikato iwi who in spite of their faces have cut off their noses. The number of anglers they would have benefitted from who might have visited Taupo after seeing the likes of the tongariro on your channel is a much bigger loss than what they would have gained from you paying them for YouTubing ‘their’ awa, keep up what you are doing, I know I have learned a lot from what you offer, thank you.
Yeah we will all miss his movies, hope you can find pleasure looking at mine and other creators.
Wow !!! Top video👏👏👏 😎🎣
Cheers!
Spettacolo👏👏👏 😎😎
Thanks bud!
I really love that shirt! I wear Huk, but that one is badass! Love that camo! What brand is that shirt?
Not sure what shirt Cory was wearing that day unfortunately
Вы мастер своего дела, очень красиво. Посмотрел с большим удовольствием
Thank you so much
Another great video Mike. I am a Scott fan and addict but I must recognize that Guideline is very good, specially in experienced hands like your guest.
Well said! All major brands make good gear but Guideline suits me so much and is tough to beat at the price. I've found my Eden.
There is nothing and nowhere comparable to this in the world
Thank you. It's a special place indeed.
You bet mate, I am from Europe and I watch this with amazed eyes!
Well done Mike! Amazing video. Beautiful fish, beautiful river and some fine-looking camp side meals. I appreciate that you take good care of them too. Can you answer a question for me? I'm used to keeping a lot more distance between me and the fish. Are you trying to fish close enough to see the fish take the nymph in case it's too subtle to see it on the dry? Different reason?
Thanks so much and good question. As long as you understand the trouts viewing window, you can get closer than most anglers think. The advantages are many: better drift is the biggest, then seeing the take, followed by being more accurate, then more secure short range sets. Hope this helps!
Sweet as it gets❤❤❤
Thanks so much!
Have you all caught Alex's last post. I mean his last post on You Tube.
Sad to hear no more videos right as I found this channel. I'm sorry the haters ruined it
No, a lot more videos to come buddy

Another well put together production as always, Mike. It was great to see you and Corey in a clip together and, of course, promoting these now popular back country skins.
Yeah cheers buddy. It's always great fun getting out with Cory.
Brilliant film as always. Looks like a great time!

Great stuff as always Mike!

Finally, the good stuff!! Once again beautifully done! Those big beautiful Browns just cruising beneath the surface, amazing! One day I'll make it out there!👍✌️
Thanks so much and yes indeed!
Another great one, Mike 🤙
Cheers mate!
A wonderful trout with a brave face!
Great video, as always Mike. Cheers Mike
Thanks 👍 much appreciated buddy
Brilliant. You already know I’m a big fan of Backcountry Skinz. But after a nasty grade 2 hamstring tear in mid September 2023 (50+ year olds should never play competitive sport!!) they came into their own this season. Really made movement on the water possible during that recovery. By December was taking on some more ambitious trips and thanking heaven for them!! Brilliant video from two legends. Thanks mate!
Haha yeah thats 'young person' stuff! Cheers buddy for the kind words.
Awesome footage Mike!!! Thank you
Thanks so much
Awesome video! What a gorgeous river! Beautiful day as well. Best!
Thank you - humbled
Amazing video. Great product from BCS. Wore them all summer & fall in CO & WY.
Thanks so much for that. Yeah they are a killer product and everyone loves them
That’s epic mate…!! Two kiwi legends smacking them on dries ❤
Hey big fella! Thanks for the kind words and get back over here one day!
And here I was just wondering when to expect another video from you Mike. Great to see you and Corey back in action!
Thanks and glad you liked it!
Poetry in motion! Exhilarating and captivating footage of two Kiwi greats. Regards from Gisborne.
Thanks for the kind and humbling words!

I live in France, and I really wanted to buy the backcountryS products, so thanks to you, I contacted the brand and they recommended a retailer in England. So I'll be able to get my parcel quickly to Slovenia. So thank you very much for your videos.
You're most welcome and you'll love them!
Outstanding video matched by sublime angling skill. Love your work guys.
