Brown trout fishing all winter this year has been great in southern wisconsin.Never even put the boat away.people need to take advantage of this winter and get after them.Thanks for the info.
Great video Russ. Thanks for all the tips. Like a previous comment though, the back lighting in most of your current videos is a killer. Hazy, hard to see the lures properly, etc. Your best video was with the doors behind you and the horse photograph on the wall. That room had perfect lighting!
Thanks Russel. Over here fishing Cayuga and Ontario. We get a lot of lake trout, OK with salmon, but can't get into the browns. Cayuga is crazy clear...20 ft easily see bottom. They're eating alewives and gobys. Natural looking salmon candy minis? Flasher in front?
Great info Russell. Here on the SW side of Lake Ontario (Grimsby to Pt. Colborne) we can have a lot of colored water in shallow early spring due to run off. Do you ever chase them in this warmer durty run off or work the transition to clean water line?
Hi Russell, Can brown trout be caught reliably in spring, summer, and fall using spoons and "shallow" water methods if the lake's too rough to go far from shore? Thanks
So i dont have any on hand experiance yet, but I have heard multiple people say they don't use stick baits because of the hooks... is there any reason you can't just change out the hooks and probably end up with a much better hook up to landing ratio? I mean personally I wouldn't fish a smithwick for literally anything without changing those junk hooks.
Thanks for all the great advice and products

Great video!
Hi Russell, I don't know if it's me but several of your last videos have a bit too much background light. Thanks Russell!
They are not showing that way on the video it’s self we are working on it thank you
It’s how he gets you to buy more baits.
@@racinrick26 Works too....
want to use a rapala? swap the rear hook for a wire 1/0 tru turn. browns in the boat jump up to 90%
Swap both hooks to 2x strong

Warm run off for sure as long as it isn’t to dirty need a few feet of visibility
Thanks Russell, do you change out the hooks on your spoons?
nope I use the ones that come on

I have really only had success when the cold water is on the shore
