Seen this before with rainbows on a lake. So hard to get your fly to hover though.
Thanks for the video...awesome

Cool video
I've seen that twice with damsels and once with green drakes, does get the heart racin' and not a hover fly in any box.

It's bad enough I have to contend with selection, size, color, then get the drag free cast. Now I have to suspend my fly 2" above the surface. Cripes I'm done for.
Great vid. Thanks for posting.

airborne trout
I was lucky enough to have a similar experience at Minnie lake on Douglas Lake ranch back in the early nineties on dry damsels I always have them in the kit when lake fishing now but have not experienced it on a river let alone with Browns.... awesome footage!

Yes it is incredible but when you havent the right fly in your box it is heart breaking watching a fish of that size rise all round what you have on and not give it a second look

This happened to me with a small mouth bass in manitoba. It was feasting on hovering dragon flies. Unfortunately it was before I took up fly fishing. I ended up catching it with a jitter bug slowly reeled in. One of my most memorable catches ever.

I've seen this more than a handful of times on the Elk with cutties but have never got anything near the footage like this! Unreal. Thanks for sharing.

Apparently, and this is just hearsay, there is a brood station somewhere where the employees trained the trout to jump out of the water with a piece of fish food in their fingers.
SeaWorld on a small scale.....apparently.
