I hope it is the future of AI best fishing videos. That way I know where not to go. Plus it will reduce the population of fisherman where I do go...
 
That was 2-1/2 minutes utterly wasted . . .
 
After reading the replies I opted not to open the thread, I'll find my daily dose of bullshit somewhere else. Plus I'm sure that the Obscure Lakes Program would dispute any attempt at a top 10 list. By definition obscure lakes get little buzz and are relatively difficult to discover. The newly minted fly fishermen require GPS coordinates, line type recommendations, fly type and color, suggestions for rod wt and most of all, pictures.

Since we only fish on weekdays and never blab, our zipper lips lakes are reasonably secure. For now anyway.
 
On the bright side he didn't mention any of my top ten lakes. You can always tell when someone ain't from around here by the way they pronounce place names.
 
I also liked the shot of downtown Seattle as seen from the east side of Lake Washington that showed up in the opening of the segment on Lake Roosevelt.
 
Here's my version of this topic based on AI
