I agree with you on the salmon eggs working better for wild trout. I got my first brown trout on those and it works well for wild rainbows. I'll have to try the crappie nibbles, corn, and those different colored power baits. I usually troll bottom fish with pink or red power bait eggs or use lures. You should try doing a stocked trout fishing video using Velveeta cheese as bait lol.
Lol, I've actually been told before to fish Velveeta for trout. I have some cheese scented PowerBait dough that is yet to catch a fish, so I don't put that much confidence in cheese 🤙
2:33 Just 2 days ago, fishing for trout with a Carolina Rig with a 4 lb lead and 4 lb line with a 7-foot ultralight... and hooked a 8 lb carp. Oh that was tons of fun.
Also just heard the other day, people have been pulling some 16-17inch rainbows outta trillium recently, went up there with no luck on the big ones (kinda a slow day) but floating some garlic powerbait eggs off the bottom was working best for mid afternoon/evening catches
Never have, I'm saving all the locations you mention in your videos because i wanna explore some new fishing areas. I grew up fishing mostly Timothy, Trillium, promontory park, sandy river and occasionally the clackamas. So maybe I'll spot you out there sometime!👍
I remember as a kid fishing with Grandpa over at Wickiup, we would stop along the way and chop grubs out of rotten logs.... worked great... also we would rig up a hook with a small marshmallow, pautzke egg, chunk of night crawler and a yellow jacket larvae... killer bait for the big brown trout.... I remember that setup being called a Wickiup Sandwich... of course I don't recommend trying to get the larvae unless you have experience with bees..
I have been using a setup for several years and have caught hundreds of trout of several different species all over the state and was surprised you didn't mention it. I tie up a Carolina rig , then slide half to whole nightcrawler on a size 6 true turn hook. Then I put a scented mallow on which will float the worm off the bottom . Adjusting leader length depending on where I might be fishing at the time . One of my favorite scents to use is anise in white . If that doesn't work I'll go with pink in the shrimp scent. It's been a very successful setup no matter where I go from Crane Prairie ( one of my favorites) , the several walk in lakes in the Waldo Wilderness area , to Waverly. I really enjoy watching your show and feel you do a great job. Also enjoy your company when I bump into you out there from time to time. Be safe and see you soon!
Great video. I have found that the powerbait eggs have worked really well for catching the smaller trout. I have also figured out that the bigger trout that i have caught wouldn't bite anything but the trout magnets instead of the powerbait eggs. I really have not been out trout fishing this year at all. I am glad to hear that Detroit has opened up but I already know that it will be extremely packed.
Hey TroutHanmer - love your videos, thanks! I’m riding my adventure bike from Coos Bay to Crescent Lake in July, then north east to the WA boarder. Can you make a couple of recommendations for lakes to catch trout along the way - much appreciated in advance!
Just ordered maps along the OR Backcountry Discovery Route (Route 5) - won’t be sure until I receive the Route maps. Anticipate they will be fire roads from Coos Bay to south of Crescent Lake.
Well, once you get into the Cascades, there are a ton of old logging ponds that have trout and bass in them. There's also the upper Willamette/upper North Umpqua area, if you plan on fly fishing
@@TheTroutHammer Awesome, thanks - I’ll let you know when I receive the maps. My rig of choice for trout is a Carolina rig with power bait - 8lb main line, 6lb leader. Will steelhead or bass nite this too?
Hey man, I live in your neck of the woods. Next time you're fishing in the Waverly park area let your fans know. You should do a meet and greet. Your videos have helped me greatly on my fishing trips.
Thank you so much 🤙. Yeah, given the times, I don't think a meet and greet, even for fishing, is the best idea. Even when I'm fishing with friends I keep a good 15 feet away from them
i fish almost always bottom for trout in the stock lakes near me, most people troll with spinners and catch the dinky ones. Im not bragging but ive found the bigger ones on bottom. This is my opinion and totally my opinion but I believe the dinky fish stay up top because they are used to being fed up there. the bigger ones that live past the first year or 2 go deeper where they find more food. Also ive caught several rainbow trout with bellies filled with tiny pebbles... any clues to why they would eat them? i figure they are used to pellet feed in the hatchery and get desperate or are just dumb, not sure.
You are correct; with almost all fish species, the larger fish hug closer to the bottom. With pebbles in the stomach, that is from when trout eat snails. They're going to swallow some rocks along with the little snails, but also the small cone shell snails in our rivers and creeks incorporate pebbles into their shells, as well

@@TheTroutHammer Yeah I wouldn't either, but it just seems like a quirky bait to try out xD.

New subscriber, grew up in Oregon Portland metro area, its great to find a local youtuber for advise on fishing here!
Awesome! Thank you 🤙

Nice. Trillium is good. Ever fish Thistle Pond?

Yeah, maybe. The way salmon and steelhead have gone for me this year, I'll likely be back on the Clackamas River this winter
Thanks man. I am studying =)
Excellent! It's my goal to educate 🤙
@@TheTroutHammer I am so ready to catch those trouts. I will head out to sportsmans warehouse for bait shopping tomorrow. thank you again.
For sure

Good choice 🤙. Bass and steelhead; not likely. For steelhead I would use wet flies or drift rigs, and bass I'd use medium size grubs around there

That's understandable. After this virus is over though. It would be cool to meet you. Keep posting your awesome videos.
For sure! Thank you 🤙
3k subs? Well done my dude!! Also the river near me is getting "hot" for fishing
Thank you, and yeah, I bet. You get the salmon and steelhead before we do 🤙
@@TheTroutHammer Its gonna be a hot weekend so I'm definitely fishing. I've heard people catching, trout, bass and Steelhead lately.
I'm going surf fishing tomorrow
@@TheTroutHammer nice! I assume and hope there will be a video of it
Hopefully 2 videos
Any suggestions for a total fishing cherry? I'm in school, in Oregon, and don't know where to start. I already have my license and a super basic rig.
A great way to start is always with an ultralight rod and some crappie nibbles. Check out my How to Catch a Fish Every Cast video 🤙
@@TheTroutHammer
Will do! Thanks.
I'm up near OC. So if you find yourself up here, lmk. I am down to fish.
Stay classy!
What kind of stents can you use to put on corn
What other ways can you fish in the too of the water
Bro I just realized youtube has not been notifying me about your videos
What? Damn bots 😅
I used to be all about the eggs but their new formula is terrible. Have you used their new stuff yet?
Are you referring to the Pautzke's, or the PowerBait?
@@TheTroutHammer pautzke's
I actually have not tried the new ones yet. Both of the jars in this video were bought the year before last
Floating worms with a worm blower is my absolute favorite way to fish a nightcrawler now days
It's a classic 🤙

Can you us hot dogs
I've never tried that, but I would be interested to see if it works
