I've never fished salmon eggs before and came across this video. Really like the techniques ya used and thanks very much for sharing. Gonna try this tomorrow
Right On Man. Now I know how to use the eggs. New to fresh water fishing other than inner city ponds. I did catch 89 trout in half a day on the Colorado River in bullhead city az. The locals told me to get an ultralight rod, 4 lb line and half ounce gold castmaster. I had a grand time. But after watching your video I’ll try the eggs next. You are a good teacher thanks Ron in los angeles
Hit up a new stream last Friday. Your trout magnet jig head and float combo worked magic on the native browns. I was doubting the float because I’ve never used them but after expirementing it let me get to some fish I never would have gotten to before, thanks.
Salmon Eggs will catch Trout consistently for sure, they have for years. However, Powerbait extra scent with glitter outfishes eggs 9 days out of 10. Not bragging but take this from someone who dishes for Trout 70+ days a year. I carry both. But Powerbait rules the day
Andy, if I could only carry one bait it would be nightcrawlers. Day in day out all times of the year nightcrawlers are tops, especially for native and pressured stocked trout. Use half a crawler rigged threaded on hook. Straight drift with size 8 Baitholder hook and 1 to 2 bb shots depending on flow. Learn to fish these properly and you'll limit out consistently, I promise.
Man I use to wouldnt fish with anything but pink and red salmon eggs. With the small split shot above my hook. Just drift fishing. Cleaned many a trout cuz of em. I quit trout fishing for 15 years. My dad had been telling me about three powerbait marshmallows orange and that's literally all he uses for freshly stocked fish. After a week or more he'll change it to something else. I've been having luck with those damn mouse tails man. We fished creek other day that had been least month since been stocked and I drew some big fish out of holes with the mouse tails. Only hooked up with 1, got it to bank and he came off. Oh well. I have decent luck with those mice tails. Salmon eggs. Powerbait
Salmon eggs are one of the most versatile trout baits out there. They can be fished alone or paired with almost anything. No trout fisherman should ever be without them. Pautzke Balls O Fire, and Atlas Big Boy are the only eggs I use. I grew up on Balls O Fire, and since Pautzke Bait Co is located not very far from where I live in WA, I have a little bit of bias towards them. But the Atlas Big Boy eggs are really good too, both of them are nice firm eggs, not soggy little sacs like some egg companies. I have heard good thing's about Mike's salmon eggs too, but haven't ever tried them myself.
@@CaptainHightop I know Caleb I've been tying them for over 20 years. They are imitations made from a yarn like material. Not bait. All that matters in the end is we get on some nice fish.
I dont fish a trout farm but I've been getting my butt kicked this year in the stocked streams theyve been getting hammered my out of stateers. Thanks for the tips
You have great learning videos! Have you ever noticed which brand salmon eggs stay on the hook better? I’ve tried Mikes and they seem pretty soft and not very tough! Thanks
Just watched this amazing video today 12-20-22 with you fishing the Salmon eggs. The Pautzke Balls of Fire seem to work very well. Although I've never tried them I have had good luck with Pautzke's synthetic Fireballs. Have you ever tried the Mad River brand of eggs? They are synthetic but not biodegradable like the Fireballs.
hey im going out this weekend. do you think I could use a splitshot but no bobber, that what we've been doing before, but limited luck. should I add a bobber? thanks, any info would be greatly appreciated. thanks, and tight lines!
you can tie flies with stuff ftom your local art and craft store and get a bulk pack of sz 14-10 scud hooks for less than the handful of eggs you had here and it will last your entire season of fishing
Question for all. I’m hitting New Mexico streams on Friday. It’s still spring runoff so the water will be high, fast and muddy. What baits work best in situations like that? I’ve never used anything besides eggs and spinners. They do fine but after eat chi omg all the things on this channel I want to try to branch out
How'd it go? I was in a similar situation last year with an extra 2 feet of fast rushing waters. I got through it my using a size 3 split shot sinker, which was heavy enough to sink down in the fast current. Then, I switch up to the black and gold panther spinner and had no success until I made a cast downstream. As I reeled it back to me, a giant brook trout hit and I quickly landed it. I measured it to be 14 inches but it was fat!
I see you fish Blue Springs a lot. Would like to book there. I know they have three sections. Which sections do you suggest the best? Could you rate them 1-3.
That, I believe, is called an EZ Float. I buy packs of Trout Magnet plastics/hooks with the EZ floats included. Maybe $3 for 2 hooks, a few plastics, and 2 bobbers.
I’m new to fishing and I’m curious as to what your doing when your opening the bail right as your getting a bite? 🤔 is it a technique to help keep them on? I could use any tips and pointers anyone has to give.
For stock trout pretty much any color will work The key for the stock fish is getting them to see or smell the bait. Stocked trout are not very selective in their feeding. With wild trout in rivers that are much more selective in their feeding it can be effective to match the stage of natural salmon eggs in the river. Fresh eggs are bright red and as they age they turn to an orange and then a yellow and then translucent. Red eggs during the height of the spawn usually are most effective with the other colors becoming better as it gets further away from the spawn.
@@CaptainHightop If you can only carry one color carry the Orange Eggs. Be sure to carry Yellow Glitter Powerbait and nightcrawlers and you'll be set. As for eggs and Powerbait keep them in your best after the first week of a stocking. Well presented nightcrawlers are then by far the best bait you can use. As for wild trout, they are no where near as difficult to catch as a week old stocked trout. They've seen everything under the sun by the 1st weekend. I've guided for years and the mark of a good Trout Fisherman is how productive he is on stocked Trout after they've been in there 7 days or more. Challenge yourself as such and you'll see what I mean
@@bjnelson9490 Does this mean that I'm no longer an amateur? Haha. I just picked trout fishing in the summer of 2019 in North Carolina and been fishing in a stocked lake since I moved to CA in the fall. Since then, every time my father-in-law and I go out fishing on the stock lake, I have always caught more trout on every single trip. Like you mentioned, I agree that a well presented nightcrawler is the best choice. I tried Powerbait, but had no success so I don't have a clue on what people mean when they say that they've caught trout on Powerbait. Berkley Gulp though, is a different story. Just recently on my last trout fishing trip (this July 4th weekend on a full moon), my largest trout on the trip came by the Gulp. After that experience, I went to the store and stocked up since they're having a deal right now at 25% off. Though I only caught 1 trout on the Gulp and the rest on the nightcrawlers, it has proved enough to me that I have grown in trout fishing, which before this I was an avid bass fisherman.

When you popped out them jars I automatically gave a thumbs up
Those are some beauts! It’s great to see the care taken to release these trout since they are a delicate species

Heading to Colorado next week and needed this for a little trout fishing. Thanks.
Love fishing eggs awesome video
Love watching you fish and explain everything, thanks for another fun video 👊🏻
salmon egg is the best ! I really enjoy watching your fishing video ! thank you for share of your fish experience ! Liked !

How bout worms vs powerbait

@@artymunoz5060 if appropriate, small treble like size 10 or smaller with a worm on bottom and glitter bait on top.
Thanks for showing how you fish with eggs. Great video.
Great Video
Ill have to try those!!! Great video!!
Thanks!
cant wait to try this place
I like that blue reel!
Love those Balls O Fire
Recent subscriber, love the videos. Tight lines!
EXELENTE MI AMIGO SALUDOS DESDE CUENCA ECUADOR
Still loving these videos keep it up! 🤙🏽
That was awesome I fish the clinch in tennessee caught some big ones over the years on salmon eggs

Unless your a trout fly fisherman. Then you wouldn't be caught dead with em . Lol
@@adamsmith8533 Fly fisherman use egg flies all the time. Presentation wise there is very little difference between an egg fly and a natural egg.
@@CaptainHightop I know Caleb I've been tying them for over 20 years. They are imitations made from a yarn like material. Not bait. All that matters in the end is we get on some nice fish.
I dont fish a trout farm but I've been getting my butt kicked this year in the stocked streams theyve been getting hammered my out of stateers. Thanks for the tips
nice clutch sound...
What you suggest in high pressure lake
Nice!
Trying this tomorrow
You have great learning videos! Have you ever noticed which brand salmon eggs stay on the hook better? I’ve tried Mikes and they seem pretty soft and not very tough! Thanks
I like pautzke
Steel head like it I like it a lot
“Size doesn’t matter...”
if that’s what she told you, go with it.
Lmbo
You should plan to cedar springs on may 24 because that's when I'm going.

Nice catch! Fun day for sure!!
try berkeley sherbet trout nuggets. killer for stocked rainbows
Do you refrigiate your patzke salmon eggs?
What line were you using for those size trout? Is 8lb mono enough for big trout?
Definitely!
Do these techniques with the eggs work in creeks with no trout, for other fish.
hey im going out this weekend. do you think I could use a splitshot but no bobber, that what we've been doing before, but limited luck. should I add a bobber? thanks, any info would be greatly appreciated. thanks, and tight lines!
A float isn't always necessary. Bottom bouncing can be very good too. Good luck!
you can tie flies with stuff ftom your local art and craft store and get a bulk pack of sz 14-10 scud hooks for less than the handful of eggs you had here and it will last your entire season of fishing
Also, what size hook? ive been using a size 8 but think that might be overgunning it.
Size 8 is perfect for being finessy as well as having enough hook to hold the fish.
@@NRVOutdoors oh. Great! thanks for the knowledge, i'll let you know how it goes. I really appreciate your help.
What's the blue ball?

I use that trick to out fish 2 friends I'm fishing with soon. One I'll out fish for the second time this year.
You said in your video you would link to the fire balls manifature channel. I dont see a link.
What is the floating/bober device you use in the video would like to purchase some, also where can I get them ?
That, I believe, is called an EZ Float. I buy packs of Trout Magnet plastics/hooks with the EZ floats included. Maybe $3 for 2 hooks, a few plastics, and 2 bobbers.
what would be the best method to use there for slamon ? thanks
Egg sacks. Either pink or yellow cloth. 6-10 eggs per sack.
@@NRVOutdoors thanks very much
What does NRV mean? New river valley
I’m new to fishing and I’m curious as to what your doing when your opening the bail right as your getting a bite? 🤔 is it a technique to help keep them on? I could use any tips and pointers anyone has to give.
I open the bail to release extra line so the bait can continue to flow down stream.
NRV Outdoors ok thank you! Can’t wait to try your technique. Nice vids!
Are you wearing some kind of fishing vest? I always see you put your magnets and now the eggs somewhere on you chest..
I like to fish for steelhead chinook Coho and white fish

@@bjnelson9490 jig or spoon works great the first day stocking, Powerbait micetail works better after one week from my experience
It depends on the water clarity. The clearer the water the more natural color used.

Great videos. Great personality. Consistently unrealistic fishing conditions. Unsubbed. Good luck 👍
