  • My first brown trout - and it's a tank! Brookies, rainbows, and browns on this great fall day. Huge thanks to ‪@darkwaters5217‬ for putting me on the fish! I owe him big time! Please check out his channel to see some of his awesome adventures. This video could not have been made without his pictures and awesome filming that allowed for the epic release shots. Thanks!
    In respect of local anglers I do NOT name any river/stream that I fish. Please respect my "no-name" policy and do NOT post the names of any spots in the comments. Thank you for understanding!

    We’re those resident browns? Gorgeous fish man nicely done! I have not done a trifecta in one day but a few yrs ago I took my son to Montana and we caught rainbows, brookies, browns, and cuts all in a week. Pretty amazing trout fishing out there in a designated wilderness area.

    • @HaightsWanderings
      @HaightsWanderings  2 года назад

      @Eirc Wakeman This was a migratory brown - the resident browns are usually much smaller. However, there are places to find them where they get 20 and higher inches.

    I’ve been a trout fisherman my whole life. Took me 10 years to catch a brown like that and another 10 to catch a second! Awesome fish! And yes the trifecta has been completed multiple times! I have a few streams here in the lower peninsula where all three species can be caught! Love the video my man!

    • @HaightsWanderings

    Good stuff..that brownie was a monster. I must say though there's something magical about those brookies....especially if you can catch one on a fly rod. Biggest one i ever caught came from the u.p.

    • @HaightsWanderings
      @HaightsWanderings  4 года назад

      @straight flush I was very humbled to catch that brown! And those brookies had some spectacular colors on them too. I hope to recreate that success next spring for the trout opener.

      @MegKT11 They are super pretty - the differences they can make between their spawning colors and normal colors is pretty rad too. They are not always so bright.

    • @HaightsWanderings
      @HaightsWanderings  2 года назад +1

      @Edward Perez I really am not a good person to ask with this question. If you're only going after brook trout then maybe a 4 wt but if you are going for browns or any lake run fish then a 5-6 or 7-8 if you might run into steelhead. It really depends. Also, I am not a good person to ask with this question. Good luck!
