My Dad's BIGGEST Trout In YEARS! (Wisconsin's Early C&R Trout Season)

My Dad has always been a live bait, catch-and-eat trout angler. He had his doubts about the effectiveness of small swimbaits for early season trout. I convinced him to try the early catch and release trout season with me just for fun. We caught a bunch of nice trout on B-Vibes in short order including a true trophy inland brown. Safe to say he's a believer now!

Just found your channel. Subscribed. You seem like genuinely good fellow. Tell Dad nice work. Also……. I just love cheese. Really I do.

[@calebwistad]

Thank you! And yes, Wisconsin cheese is the best!

Great day on the trout stream! What style backpack were you wearing?

[@calebwistad]

Yessir! It’s a sling pack: app.rockporch.com/prdlink/SwdXQUWlLX

Thanks for sharing! Headed out tomorrow with my son to chase trout in the Driftless area & we both will try the B-vibe set-up you use. So far, we haven't had the luck with them like you.

@@calebwistad You were right, my son fished a B-Vibe yesterday and out fished me & my spinner. 🙂
