- Setting out on a cold winter day in search of some hungry steelhead. Despite the cold conditions, using a simple rig I was able to land some nice fish! Stay tuned, and I hope you enjoy the video!

Thanks for explaining the reason of the bead placement. Nice video.
Like the bead explanation. Made the most sense I’ve heard so far!
Thanks for the feedback!
I hope my son grows up to love fishing as much as you do.
Enjoyed following along with you. Many thanks.
Very well spoken and thorough I learned a lot from you, thanks very much 👍
So jealous of this Great Lakes fishing I have been chasing steelhead for years with only a few bites. These things are actually a challenge to catch in Washington and Oregon these days.
We sure are lucky here in Michigan! Hopefully you get into some soon!
Because there’s none left out there.
Bronzemouth Warrior Year later, but lmao. You can absolutely hammer steely’s in Washington.
Every Steelhead guy at the great lakes: so jealous of the Steelhead in oregon/washington
Thanks for the good rundown and nice fish!
Heck yeah man! Much respect - you nailed it. Much more rewarding when you can catch the fish on your own but always lots of fun when a buddy gives you the hook up. Look at the famous fishing youtubers channels and you'll never see them fishing on their own unless they have a guide to put them on fish.
Thanks man! It sure does feel good to get it done on your own. It would be nice to go out with some of the guides that they do though..
Nice vid dude! Waitin' for cold water pike fishing vids!👊🐟👍
Thanks! Hopefully I can get one or two out before the ice season.
Look forward to seeing your new reel in action, you do great videos my fav those on the fly
I'm looking forward to getting some fish on it! Hopefully I'll be able to do a little more fly fishing this year.

Best of luck!
Nice work....simple, short and to the point.
Thank you for the bead distance from the hook explanation
It was a lot of fun being able to fish with you again! great video man!
You bet man, I had a good time!
Im my most recent vid I had 4 steelhead get off on the bead egg setup, but I had the hook about 1" from the egg, so I am thinking I definitely gotta try it 2" from the hook and see if that improves my game!
Great vid!
Hopefully that helps, good luck!
I always use my fingers. I put three fingers between the bead and the hook. Make sure you have the right size hook for your bead too. Ideally you want the gap of your hook to be close to the size of your bead.
@@nickbrown6916 thanks for that tip. Definitely gonna try it out
Looked like a nice river to fish in. I know that second spot at the pier. I have spent a number of days there, but always for photography/videography work, I've actually never fished it haha. I plan to next year. Nice video.
Nice. I've fished Grand Haven too. Grand Haven is a great spot at certain times of the year!
What part brother? The lake? Can you send me the spot where you go?
I got a 5lb steelhead on a crappie jig 3rd cast
Really liking your videos man keep up the great work! I see you were fishing the same hole that you had success with in the amateur steelheading video👍
Looks cold out there in Michigan. Just the sort of weather where a mandatory flask of hot tea is required to fortify the soul.
I'm going to bet this guy normally uses a bait casting reel.
Awesome information bud! Much appreciated 👍🏼
Great video man
In my backyard again! It’s been a slow year for that river
You've got a great backyard!
Great Steelhead and video, really not bad see some good fish.
Thx for the always good info, even we got no steelheads here in the Netherlands europe.
But its usefull for trout that we have here, and you can fish 👌
I'm glad you enjoyed it! That bead rig can be an awesome way to get trout for sure!
Ever try using the head strap for your camera? It gives a good, higher view of the water/fish strikes and the view doesn’t get blocked by your reel and hands. I’m assuming you’re using an action camera (GoPro) Just a suggestion and not a complaint. Keep up the good work!
How do you float fish with that setup in 3 ft of water when your hook is father away from your float? I can only assume you’re purposely bottom bouncing and dragging it down? I’m just wanting to learn is why I ask. Also why run a leader then barrel swivel then another size leader?
I would like to try this set up. How long is your 12 lb fluorocarbon and how long is your 8 lb fluorocarbon? Also, when you say “small barrel swivel”, how small do you mean? From what I can see in the video, it doesn’t look that small. Thank you for your help.
All depends on where you are fishing and the fish you are fishing, how deep, current, how big are the fish, etc.
Yo buddy great videos love them. Love steelhead fishing. I was planning to go pike fishing Tom. The temp pasture is going to be 8 degrees c. What lure would you use for like a open water place
I'd go with a big jerkbait. I usually start off fishing them fairly fast but then slow down if you aren't getting any bites.
I know exactly where you were whitefish fishing, but I'm not going to that person and blurt out the spot.
*be
👀
That was a nice and big steelhead, beautiful! 👍 Lol, not a good release of the brown trout! It is surely already perfect in the water!
Hopefully I'll get that release down better next time! Thanks for watching!
Here is nothing wrong with the way he released the trout he wet his hands and only had the fish out of the water for a short amount of time.
+H&F Michigan Sure thing mate! It was a joke! As I mentioned, the fish is doing well in the water.
Josh, I have never tried using a bead like that. How do you get it to stay 2" above the hook?
WDTA UT look up trout bead pegs and bead tutorials on here they show you how to rig em. A little rubber peg goes into the hole you slip the fishing line into that holds it from sliding
As mentioned, you can peg the bead with either a rubber peg or a pice of toothpick. Also, there is a knot called a “bead knot” that will hold the bead in place. Some people have opined that the knot will break when a big fish is hooked. I fish tippets from 4-6lb test, and have never broken off a fish at the bead, FWIW.
Either way, that’s how you do it.
Aj and GB, thanks for the response. As soon as I saw 'peg', I thought "Of course' how simple." Thanks again.
So how is your slip bobber rigged? That is what I have the most problem with is keeping the bead on the bottom.
Nice video!
Great little video two questions for you are steelheads rainbows that have gone to sea, and whitefish are they in the grayling family? Nether fish are present in the UK so I'm not sure myself? 🤔
@Matthew Skarbinski spot on 👌 and to answer the other question, it looks like whitefish and grayling are both in the Salmonids family.
Awesome video man congrats on the fish
Thanks man!
Another great video ! Looking like a difficult fly situation at both locations.
There certainly isn't a lot of back casting room at some of those spots.. although I do see a fair amount of guys fly fishing there for trout. May have to give it a shot sometime!
Roooolllllllll casting brothas
Bro the sun definitely had risen
We don't have steelhead in England but I might try this for trout and grayling
BUSHCRAPPING a steal head is a trout it’s just a mature rainbow trout that has gone out to the lakes then back to rivers and streams to pawn
@@MrRedwin1 theres a big difference between a trout that is 2lbs or less livig in a small stream to a fish that best part of 10lbs and been swimming in the ocean or biog lakes.
when i said trout i meant browns
good job bud
Is it a law to use barbless hooks where you fish? I live in Washington state and we have to use "smooth shanks"
Awesome video man!
I'm glad you liked it!
Beautiful fish!
Can you explain how much weight of float, three even split shots and last split shot?
Awesome channel!
No!!! Eat it, best fish ever!
34in 14.5 lb master angler sunday night for me
awesome hook up on those fish
Nice thank you for video. What type bead or how do you get to keep it in the spot above the hook?
The beads are from Great lakes steelhead co. You can buy bead pegs to keep them in place
Nice job. Is that grand haven south pier??
chris bajema I was thinking the same thing. It has to be.
Love the brownie
They're one of my favorites !
Bro is that Grand Haven?
Nice steelhead! What lure did you use to catch the whitefish off the pier?
Blade baits and flutter spoons
Peelindrag thank you!
Crazy rig..
How do you do the beads
What state are you fishing in
Is this Michigan
Hoping someone can answer this in the chat..so on a fixed float setup the depth you set is between the float and the first split shot that touches the river bottom?
There are different ways to do it, but I always try to keep a vertical presentation with my bait just off the bottom. If I'm fishing a 6ft deep hole I'll have my rig just under 6ft from my float to my bait.
What real were you using?
Killer video
Slow down my friend!LOL.
What style of rod were you using?
What river system are you fishing?
Nice vid man
Thanks for watching!
When it’s real cold they stay glued to the bottom lol they don’t wanna come up into the cold air
👏👏👏 bravoo
That was a tough day of fishing? You'd hate getting rained on, for weeks on end, during srlturgeon season. Went 6 days. Caught 1.
The funny thing it’s like your flossing lol all your fish were on the retrieval!?
How do you know how much to set the drag
can you link the products used in the description?
** Thumbs up! **
Nice video
I thought texas rig was alot of gear lol. Just started fishing last summer haha
"The sun has not risen yet"
How the hell is it light out then boi
It starts to get light 30 min before sunrise
Where you at Pulaski?
What rod r u using and where can I get it
Nice Steelhead.
Thanks Robert!
What river
Bro there's sunlight. How the f*** hasn't the sun risen yet 😂
It gets light about 30 minutes before the sun actually comes over the horizon
@@peelindrag113 nah man, nah.
That water is so clear if u used 4lb leader you’d catch more
Dang!
Put the reel handle on the other side of the reel.....unless your left handed
Why two leaders?
looks like Grand haven
Just reel the fish in haha
tailhook eh? musta been a navy man...
Rod reel specs?
How are you keeping the egg spaced from the hook? I'm assuming you're using some sort of knot. I'm leery of adding unnecessary knots for fear of making a weak spot in the line Can you explain?
There are rubber pegs that go in the hole of the bead that hold the line to the bead. You can also use a tooth pick
Where can I buy same or similar bobbers? Thanks bud
They are clear drift floats, cleardrift.com
Well maybe it's not, but it looked a lot like my cleardrift
Dicks sporting good in the fall, any online tackle shop like fishusa will carry them
Manistee??
I legit use power bait on a trebel or a pink worm or fake egg sack on a circle hook with a normal bobber and fluro leader on braid. Nothing special. You guys like to make it so hard. Just float the right bait with a bobber (debth is up to you). Its not hard. you dont need 10 split shots lmao. circle hooks are nice, they set themselves aswell
Where are tell me
Stove pipe hens.
A tough day of fishing? On my river you can fish for 12 hours, not get one bite and if you don’t lose any gear you would call that a good day.
Nice
When you release them try not to take them out of the water.
Sigh, RUclips recommends another great lakes 'steelhead' video to me. There are NO steelhead in the great lakes, NONE. These are rainbow trout. Steelhead are andronamous, and that migration to and from the ocean changes their skeletal structure and their metabolisms. 2:24 Look at the football shape of that spawner. That's not a steelhead.
Genetically the same. Fish that summer in Great Lakes and return to tributaries to spawn ( even if unsuccessful) are called Steelhead by biologists at DNR of NY, OH, MI, and WI to name a few. Are they all wrong?
i i didn’t ask
I suck at fishing
Tell me some of your dork hair tails bruh. Holy cow...no one ever...
Lol I didn’t watch the entire video.. my point exactly snagging
Call the DNR
Get a centerpin
Just got one in the mail today
@@peelindrag113 which one

@@peelindrag113 if your gunna upgrade get an islanders best reel out there and most durable
Great vid dude
Thanks man!
