The famous nocturnal Hex hatch of the Midwest (and a few other lucky locations) stirs to the surface mythically large brown trout that only touch streamers for the rest of the year.
The YouTube clips leave a lot to be desired, because YouTube compresses the heck out of things and I haven't figured out how to encode videos for the best YouTube quality yet. But click the still pictures in that post (which are just frame captures from the full-sized video) and you'll see some wild Alaskan fish up close & personal.
I wish I could share the full HD video with everyone, because it's really, really cool, but the file size is about a gigabyte per minute.
