Thanks Gary! I have put some effort into trying to make my channel a little bit more visually appealing than straight GoPro footage. I appreciate the recognition!
Sweet! I started fishing the Brule during the Spring run. Instantly fell in love. Working on a fall steelhead/Brown compilation from this fall. Its been a good fall for me
I really appreciate you guys making this video. I have been going up to the Brûlé for two years now by myself and I have found this so helpful. Thank you great video great fish great people!!
Really love the colville reel, glad to see one in Wisconsin! Dan colville makes the best reels on the market for the price point.. I live in NY close by his shop. What a gem. If u get a chance to check his stuff out I highly recommend. Tight lines!
Really great video. I gotta get to the brule this summer. My father and I have wanted to get on there for years after reading the old duck hunters books by Gordon MacQuarrie. If u get a chance to read the books u would love them. All real story's about hunting and fishing in northern Wisconsin. Would u ever do like a guided trip to the brule river. Or at least get me some. Directions to a good spot where I can get my 70year old dad on some nice fish. Keep up the great videos
Thanks so much! I own The Old Duck Hunters books and have read them multiple times. I’m a hardcore waterfowl hunter as well. They are great books! I do not guide currently but I am always happy to answer questions!
Is there a better way to communicate with you. I don't do social media. Would be cool to meet up this summer to do some fishing. We're over in Rhinelander wi. Would be great to fish the brule with some one who has fished the river.
Just as with the Springtime video, I'm curious to know what you're running for your mainline especially in those 30 degree temps. I like the mono in the cold but getting more braided line on the spool is definitely a perk.
Thanks man! I appreciate it. And yes. Fall fish are much more likely to eat crawlers than spring fish. Fresh run cohos and browns especially love them.
@@calebwistad beautiful browns....I used to live in Chicago in the early 1990's and some giant lake run browns used to run the root river.....following salmon and holding over till spring steelhead....got some beauties on bobbers, jigs and wigglers
Yes, absolutely. Springtime is definitely all about eggs. Yarn flies, spawn sacks, beads etc are the way to go. Insect imitations can also work, nymphs like stoneflies and prince nymphs can be good if you are a fly guy. Here is a link to my spring steelhead video for a lot more tips: ruclips.net/video/XLbEO2k0OK0/видео.html
You know, I’ve never fished it early although I know there is a small run of kings and browns in august. . I’ve always gone in September and October. Late October/early November is actually my favorite.
It looks like you've got bigger water here than around brule where I've been fishing. Where should I go south or north? I won't even ask your honey holes but a little guidance for some bigger water rather then wood fallen tight areas would be great!?
There are very few large rivers that hold trout. Even fewer that are tributaries that hold steelhead. There are a few decent ones on the north shore of Lake Superior in MN though and a few in the UP of Michigan.
Awesome video, great waters and top fishing trip, thanks for the shaw, thumbs up and greetings from New Zealand.We subbed, check out our trout fishing videos, best regards from Down Under, Tony.
Really unfortunate to see you blowing up the brule like this. That river doesn’t even deserve to be named on social media. Sucks that guys are ruining it nowadays and no one can keep a secret anymore.
The Brule has been one of the most famous streams in the country since long before I was born. Countless celebrities have fished it, and many tv shows have been filmed there over the years. I realize that more people have been fishing it the past few years and that may be frustrating to you, but to blame that on exposure when the Brule has never been a secret is a bit of a stretch.
As a Blue Hills local... I love your support for this valley.
Thanks!
Your camera work and editing are second to none.

Good deal! It’s quite an interesting place to fish. It can be a heartbreaker but the days it’s good it can be phenomenal.
I really appreciate you guys making this video. I have been going up to the Brûlé for two years now by myself and I have found this so helpful. Thank you great video great fish great people!!
Thanks man! I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I hooked a giant fish up there today and fought it for almost 8 minutes before I lost it. Never saw it.
Hey Dylan, I'm a soloist as well. Maybe we'll cross paths sometime.
Really love the colville reel, glad to see one in Wisconsin! Dan colville makes the best reels on the market for the price point.. I live in NY close by his shop. What a gem. If u get a chance to check his stuff out I highly recommend. Tight lines!
Yes. Extremely high quality!
Nice work guys! Love seeing other people using centerpins on the Brule!
Another awesome video! The views are amazing...the Brule is so beautiful...and you caught fish!!!
Thanks again! The brule is tough to beat for scenery, that’s for sure!
Awesome video man! Can’t wait to move up there and fish the Brule myself.
It’s a special place. You will fall in love with it!
I’ve always fished the same part of the Brule but not as much luck good fishing!
It’s a beautiful river. Thanks!
You're getting better and better with the vids buddy!
Thanks man!

I'm tellin' ya, find some sponsors and get your own show!!
You are awesome Rick! Maybe someday!
Great video! I am making my way up there again this coming Friday! What were you guys using on the Spinning Reels?
Thanks Miguel! I was using both tied spawn bags and yarn flies. I typically fish yarn in faster water and spawn in slower water.
@@calebwistad Great, thanks for the info. I'll tag you if I catch any.
Just as with the Springtime video, I'm curious to know what you're running for your mainline especially in those 30 degree temps. I like the mono in the cold but getting more braided line on the spool is definitely a perk.
I’m still using that Sunline Float II (mono) that’s in the description. It’s been a very solid line for me even in the cold.
Ah yes the description..
Don’t want braided in river you will snap your rod.
What kind of net are you using? I’m on the market for a new one
There is a link in the description of the video for the net I’m using. Check it out!
So at 15:00 you’re just drifting those spawn sacs?
Yes. I’ve caught many more steelhead drifting spawn sacs than fishing them under a float, but that’s just how I like to fish too. Both methods work.
just found you......subscribed.....will Fall fish eat a crawler?.....I'm a Michigan guy
Thanks man! I appreciate it. And yes. Fall fish are much more likely to eat crawlers than spring fish. Fresh run cohos and browns especially love them.
@@calebwistad beautiful browns....I used to live in Chicago in the early 1990's and some giant lake run browns used to run the root river.....following salmon and holding over till spring steelhead....got some beauties on bobbers, jigs and wigglers
Yes, we sometimes use waxworms on floats. Those will take browns as well.
@@calebwistad yes that same river taught me waxworms and little white tube jigs
Any luck with king salmon?
Not on the Brule. I’ve seen a couple in zombie mode that wouldn’t bite but it’s a pretty small run.
Any tips for steelhead fishing in spring? I'm new to it & I wanna try it out this year on the Manitowoc river. Spawn sacks? Inline spinners?
Awesome video by the way! Great content & good quality production. Subbed!

@@calebwistad Awesome, thanks!
How is early august on the brule?
You know, I’ve never fished it early although I know there is a small run of kings and browns in august. . I’ve always gone in September and October. Late October/early November is actually my favorite.
Just subscribed
Thank you!
Hey dude I’m up here in superior for a few more weeks and would like to fish with ya if you’re cool with that ..
Did you do any good?
It looks like you've got bigger water here than around brule where I've been fishing. Where should I go south or north? I won't even ask your honey holes but a little guidance for some bigger water rather then wood fallen tight areas would be great!?

@@calebwistad I'll keep at it and keep exploring! Thanks for the advice my friend!
That looks like a colville reel
Yep! @sorensen_fishin rocks the Colville. I may have to join the club at some point, they look incredible!
Awesome video, great waters and top fishing trip, thanks for the shaw, thumbs up and greetings from New Zealand.We subbed, check out our trout fishing videos, best regards from Down Under, Tony.
I’ll check you guys out as well. Awesome fishing down there!
