- Here are 5 tips for trout fishing in lakes.
Personally, I prefer to do most of my trout fishing in streams, however during the winter months when the trout streams are all closed, I am limited to lakes and impoundments.
This winter, I have not even had the chance to get out and go trout fishing in a lake as I have been far too busy with work. I am hoping that changes next week so that I can get out and wet a line, most likely in Lake William Hovell.
Although I was at Lake William Hovell yesterday, I was not fishing for trout. In fact, I was not fishing at all as I am on-call at work and had to be back in an area with phone service pretty quickly, so I done some filming and some photography and got out of there.
So here are my personal top 5 tips for trout fishing in lakes.
Other people may have tips, if so feel free to leave them in the comments below, but for now, here are my top 5 tips for trout fishing in lakes.

"Cold enough to freeze the pricks off a barbed wire fence" gold!!
Mate, Your a legend. Im only 13 and I just bought my first ever trout license and i live near a lake with trout. Thanks for the advice
same..good fishing
Hi Blake thanks for your kind words mate. Good luck in your local lake my friend.
Go get em youngster!
@@isaacgutierrez372 Life has changed since then mate. Now 15, fish everyday, sponsored on my instagram. Caught trout up to 12lbs wild and some serious saltwater trophies including the snapper in my profile pic and a 250kg bronze whaler i got landbased. Still got a lot to learn but robbie definatly kicked my passion into play.
Blake right on man that’s amazing! Yea I just recently found his channel and he’s got a lot of interesting videos!
Another great video with some simply put top tips and a fantastic location. I must admit though I keep looking at those hills and I know what I would be doing but for those passionate fishermen out there you could do a lot worse than listen to Robbie's hot tips. He increased my success rate while fishing so he must be a bloody wizard. LOL. Great Job mate...........
Mate, this was awesome. What a wealth of intel bro. Really covered every aspect of Trout fishing during the winter. I agree with all your advice mate. Cheers Moose. 🎣
I like the video before i even watched it, didn't regret it. Fantastic info as always Robbie!!
WOW thanks so much for your great comment mate.
Thanks you sir for all the helpful info! I always casted thinking they were going for warmer waters! I will be trying them Shady areas and days, no wonder I haven’t caught anything big yet!
Robbie thanks for sharing
Awesome would love to see some videos of you fishing in lakes for trout👍👍keep up the great work
Thanks heaps mate. I am hoping to make one very soon. I've been flat out at work lately, and even yesterday while I was out I didn't fish because I needed to be back in mobile phone service by 5pm for work.
Would love to see you teaching us some lure techniques for trout in lakes Robbie. Love your work!
Thanks for the great tip mate.
Great to see some tips for North East Victoria, well done.
Thanks heaps Scott.
Awesome mate. Will use these tips when I go out tomorrow
Awesome, good luck mate!
That there is a cracking good vid with lots of knowledge shared thanks Robbie!👍. PS I think hot pink tassie's are the go to aswell😊✌️
great video mate, straight to the point no BS
Thanks so much mate. That's how I operate.
Thanks heaps Robbie !! I haven’t been catching any fish for 5 days at the lake out the back of my house and after those tips I caught a trout on a blade and salmon eggs / power bait
How do i work a blade
Thanks for the tips🎣🎣
Hey buddy my pleasure.
Thank you for the great tips no wonder the fish hit more towards the end of a storm and after, interesting.
Thanks mate. I hope you're getting onto a few.
Great video man. No BS, just great info!
Thanks so much mate
Great tips
Great Video, very informative.
anyone else see him spray spit like every sentence? lol
daman12345678945 That's the Scottish coming out in me!
robbiefishing Glad you are a good sport about it haha, keep making great videos man!
very intresting good advice
I just got my license, and I live 2 miles away form a lake can’t wait to try out these tips
Awesome. Good luck mate.
dude these vids are so informative and just make you want to fish. Thanks and keep up the good work.
I'm from Melbourne will you catch trout in winter any time off the Day
Hey Robbie- great vids mate. Great advice! Keen to go for a flick sometime if you're keen im in the Mornington area!
Been waiting for this vid Robbie so thanks heaps. Would be cool if you could put some of your fishing tips onto a DVD one day or is that asking too much lol.
Marty. A DVD.....that would be cool but I dont have the editing skills. LOL
good videos some of the best
Very informative!
Thanks mate. 👍👍
Great vid mate
Hey Robbiefishing what another great video I am just wondering do you think right that a 3.6grm switch blade is to small for fishing in dams for Redfin and trout because it is my first time using them
Jayden Bonat Thanks heaps buddy. The smaller sizes certainly work well for trout and redfin, they just don't cast as far.
Oh really do you think that they would cast more if I put a snap sinkers on then
g,day mate keep em comin
Great video buddy salut you from Ireland.. I'm new to fishing and looking forward to catch my first trout in the near future... I have one question do I use a float or do I bottom lake fishing?
Thanks so much mate. You can catch trout both ways. I like to bottom fish because it is easier, but have caught trout on floats.
Floats seem to work well in shallower Lakes of just a few meters deep.
do you know anything about the West Barwon Reservoir? is it a good spot?
Awesome video! Heading up to lake jindabyne for my first go at trout.
Thanks mate.
Hey is there any specific technic to the retreval of the lures? Like should a twich it or pause it? and awesome video mate
Hey buddy that varies from lure to lure. Some need to be paused and some don't. Winged lures such as Tassie Devil lures need to be retrieved faster etc...
😄 Great advice 👍
Thanks mate.
Hi Robbie, can't believe I missed this video. What a putz!! Anyhoo. I'm primarily a boat fisher person( a bloke in this case) and I really enjoy flatline trolling and Leadline trolling. I have one tassie devil(a bit limp I know) but, thanks to your video I off to my local tackle store to expand my range. I'm pretty sure now, one pink one is not enough! I actually have it mounted on a leadline setup. Question(if I may), should I use the deeper diving version to help the leadline do it's job of getting the lure deeper down. Or will the Leadline max out the standard lure for depth?
As usual another great video, many thanks. Peter
Thanks Peter. (A bloke in this case). Haha
I guess it would depend on how you are going on the day. If you're catching fish, don't change. If you're not catching fish then maybe try getting the Yassie down as deep as possible.
Robbie can I just thank you for being a good sport it's all learning. And yes thank you for correcting me😅, rivers are closed winter time. The point I was trying to make was timing is everything even fishing winter time around river mouths and along banks after the brown trout have finished their run they are more confident then rainbows and will feed in shallow water up close to the banks.
Thanks again for being a good bloke would love to trade fishing tips with you one day on the water cheers. 🍻
And keep up the good cod vids I'm in the snowy mountains and it's to cold for cod up here although I do sting the chase the dinosaurs in the near future. 🤙 if you ever need any tips for trout you can find me commenting on your vids man.
Robbie you have to get some fishgrub spinners. They are all good but gold over gold are great.
awsome vid mate. what size rod and reel is best, is a 0.5 - 3 kg rod ok to use?
Thanks mate, yep ultralight rods are ideal.
Good video mate thanks for the information 👍
Hey Robbie, I love your videos mate they’re extremely informative, I live near Harcourt, just moved recently from Melbourne so I’m new to freshwater fishing, have you got any tips or even a favourite spot that you might have fished around my area?
Hey mate thanks for your kind words. Sorry I messed this comment sooner. Unfortunately I have never been to Hobart mate, don't know it at all sorry.
The pricks off a barbed wire fence. LMAO. cheers mate.
Victor Bitter hahaha it really was that cold mate!
Great tips mate. I'm an avid trout fisherman from the UK. A pommy! 😉
Thanks so much mate. I hope you're getting onto a few in the sunny, or not so sunny UK.
I have only caught a trout at trout farms so hopefully your advice could assist 🤣
got myself a few cod in the buffalo river the other day
when its hot , do they not swim upstream to colder water in the tributaries???
Hey mate yes they will definitely do that too. I guess they have the choice. Some go up stream and some go down deep. In streams they always head upstream.
Love your videos Robbie, would U use a 7g blade in a river or is that to big??
Michael's Fishing & Kayaking Reviews Hi mate, I have caught trout on 7gm blades in rivers. You need to rig through the front hole though.
Hey Mate, love your show. I live in Ballarat - next time you come this way to do a vid on Wendouree (trolling vs shore fishing, maybe?) I'd love to know just to be able to stop by and give a proper hello.
This guy reminds me of Steve Irwin. Subbed!
Haha I will tell him you said that. 😄😁 Thanks for the sub mate. 👍👍
Robbie what kind of power bait works for stocking trout?
Hi Antonio to be 100% sure I do not know sorry. Tackle stores in my area usually sell powerboat in jars so it may be a case of just choosing a colour and hoping for the best. LOL
Good tips mate
Thanks mate.
Hey Robbie! Love your channel mate! Can you share your rod and reel of choice for trout fishing?
Thanks mate. If you click on the video description on any of my recent trout stream videos you will find all the info to the gear I used. I use a couple of different rods depending on which waterway I am fishing.
How do you rate powerbait Rob?
Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong with fishing for Redfin . What I do is do a running sinker with the smallest sinker I have with worms on a long shanked hook and then let it sit for half an hour . With soft plastics I cast the in slowly reel in and then jig it up reel in the slack then jig repeat I can't tell if I get a bite . Btw I fish spavin lake Sunbury . Can you please make a video on knowing when you have a bite
Apocalypse Hey buddy, it's really hard for.me to tell you what you're doing wrong unless I am fishing with you. From what you have said, it sounds like you're doing it all right. Thus time of the year can be very hard to catch redfin.
+robbiefishing thanks mate
here in NZ the redfin respond well to the colour red, red plastics work well
Alright I love all your videos mate and I still like this one but tip no.2 about best to catch trout in low light and also no.3. I grew up in Tassie with some of the best trout fishing in the world, I can say IV always caught more trout at high noon then low light. Also one of the best winged lures would be the Tassie devil fredo frog. Best baits for me would be mudeyes, wood cockroaches (the pure black ones) worms and grasshoppers. No disrespect mate just my 2 cents. One last thing bright orange flesh = the best tasting trout
Thank you...
Great video Robbie, I was just wondering if the lakes that get stocked in Victoria for school holidays are open all year, because I couldn't find any info in the internet.
Thanks heaps mate. They sure are open all year, however many of them are too warm in the summer months and the trout are usually caught by them. Quite a few have golden perch which start biting when the trout slow down.
robbiefishing thanks mate!
What's a good size hook for trout
top tips Robbie like always, they can also be used for native fish
Max L Absolutely. Thanks heaps mate.
fantastic video Robbie. when will the Redfin videos start up again, I do understand the conditions wouldn't be ideal in winter.
Hey buddy, yeah most likely not until the weather warms up unfortunately. If I get time I might head out soon and try and catch a winter redfin, but I do seem to have a lot on lately.
robbiefishing whatever works best for you!
What do you recommend to troll with in stocked lakes? And awesome video dude!
Thanks mate. Tiny minnows often work well buddy.
YOU'RE a champion
Thank you so much mate. 🙏
G'day Robbie! Heading up to eildon tomorrow for a trout fix after some river withdrawals haha still after that email mate
James Dawson Good luck mate. Which email is that buddy? I'm a bit confused. Have I forgotten something? If so i do apologise.
+robbiefishing your email mate
Robbie in lakes I prefer the two pronged approach. 1 rod with bat and one with lures.
Excellent advice Ritchard, that's exactly what I do when I am fishing for redfin.
I live near a large unstocked lake with loads of predators in Ireland like redfin and pike and if I use bait I catch large bait fish and if I use lures I catch pike (wich are like pickerel but a lot bigger)
Hey legend, any tips for a good spot at lake eildon for land based? Going to give it crack this week
Hi mate the boat ramp at Bonnie Doon often provides good redfin fishing.
@@robbiefishing Cheers mate will do, might try the pondage with some soft plastics!
Ace vid robbie
Thanks so much Tezza.
Also on your third point you might find u are getting more fish in the shade as the can't detect ur leader or recognise or realise it's a lure.
Great video Robbie, roughly how deep do you fish at lake Jindabyne not in the winter and what do you look for on the sounder. Thanks
Hey mate I dont fish Jindabyne personally. If I did I would look for anything that showed up in them open. Not connected to the bottom or any structure. I would note the depth of the object and try and fish at that depth.
You should do designs on shirts and jackets
Do you think a braided line is good for trout fishing?
f50koenigg I don't like It mate. Most do, but I dont. I like line with stretch when I'm trout fishing.
f50koenigg trout see braided line the best would be a light clear mono filament 4, 6 or 8 pounds depend on what size they are
can anyone here please list the lakes for trout fishing in victoria preferably close to melbourne when these streams are closed
Hi mate, try Lake Eildon. There may be lakes closer but I'm not sure which ones sorry as I'm from Norther East Victoria.
@@robbiefishing all good thanks for your reply!
1:40 well that’s where I am right now getting tips for going trout fishing haha (Jindabyne)
Awesome. Good luck Max.
I fuckin love your accent bud
Awesome video Robbie! Im heading up to lake Eildon in about 3 weeks. It will be shore fishing only and I will be staying up at taylor bay. Ever been there and any success as this will be my first trip there ever?
I also like the Idea of the transitions with the footage of the rivers. Very peaceful and calming.
T_C Fishing Thanks heaps for your awesome feedback mate. I wasn't sure whether that worked or not. I put it there to help capture the atmosphere.
As for Eildon I have not fished it very often. When I have fished it, it was at kookaburra point. (I think)
Awesome thanks Robbie. Cant wait to wet a line again!
Your first point brother if the trout head deep in summer they r easier to find (down rigs)
Thanks mate. If you are in a boat with a depth sounder that it. Hard work from the bank though.
Gdie might! I lake this just as much as the trout lakes the cold water likes.
G'day mate. LOL
You lake this video just as much as cold Walter likes?
I wonder what he would say about Lake Taneycomo.
my mum used to work at kirinari
7 grams = 1/4 oz.
Wonder where you learned that.
Spot on mate.
Tip 5 what's wrong with grasshoppers and crickets and pretty much all insects even a small mouse. Bro bro bro have you ever caught a 10+pounder trout in one of our lakes or rivers doubt it. FISH rivers spawn time and summer you know there deep so down rig trawl certain deep parts of lakes that hold yabbies.
Downriggers require boats....I don't have 1. This is Australia, our trout fishing conditions are marginal at best. Wild 10lb trout are only found in select places, mainly Tasmania. Not in my area. I have videos on this channel of my bait fishing for trout with worms and crickets and fly fishing with grasshopper patterns.
BlacktipH, the Dude Perfect of fishing.
some good hints but would have been better for us noobs if you showed the types of lures you were talking about
thanks
Hey mate thanks for the great feedback?
Mate morning or evening you can throw a spoon with a hook attached and catch trout, mate I've caught trout on a hook with no bait right place right time fishing is timing in every sense of the word.
Haha I have done that with redfin a lot but not with trout. Funny fish!
Jim What size spoon do you recommend
Your third point is correct
So are the other 4.
Your second point trout don't like sun light mate no try barometric pressure. What do river trout do on a sunny day? And yes cloudy days help but it's not because the fish don't like sun light.
OK. Thanks for correcting me.
Personally, I wish he named more lakes
Thanks so much Chase. Personally, I wish everybody shared your sentiments because then I could name more places without being hated on and abused.
I can't understand u what's a switch blade and a tazzy
They are Lures
The transitions oh man..
No good?
It's only my opinion, but I dont think the brook after the tip number is really necessary and it extends the video unnecessarily. The tips themselves were very helpful though.
@@ThatOtherRaccoon Hey buddy thanks for the feedback.
Winter is also spawn time so targeting them in the rivers is the go mate fishing is timing.
Thanks Jim, except here that is illegal. Our creeks and rivers a closed during winter to allow the trout to spawn uninterrupted.
What is a yabbi? And any other tips for native trout ?
Almost as much as you do!
The
bait oops.
And mate is illegal to fish with worms in rivers in NSW kids and women bait fish drift flies on a spin rod or soft plastics, real bait in rivers be careful.
Thanks mate, thanks for the heads up.
Robbie you are very wise but I prefer the actual fishing videos and less talking videos
Louise Griffiths Hey Louise thanks for the faadback.
There will definitely be mire fishing videos in spring when the trout season reopens. I've been finding it hard to find time to go fishing lately. Even on the day I filmed this video I was on call at work and could not stay out of phone service for very long. Hopefully I get time to go fishing again soon, and then come September.....BANG I will make so many fishing videos that you will be sick of seeing them.
just speaking for over 11mins and not doing any demo? why not just recording a sound track...
Because I didnt want to.
