Awesome video! Those were some beautiful rainbows. I also thought that last one was gonna be bigger as well but super clean wild fish. Those nymphs are like candy to wild fish! Thank you so much for this video and the helpful information you pass on. I absolutely love watching your channel 👍🏾🎣👍🏾🎣
Thanks for this video. I've just now relocated to Susanville after over 30 years in Truckee. Eagle is sorta in my backyard but I don't care for lake fishing. This gives me some places to scout in my truck until it warms up some.
My hands got cold just watching this clip! 1st fish was nice! 2nd one, no so bad either for sub-30s scouting mission. I am hoping that you get a pocket heater or something you can warm up with instead of the car heater. Thanks for taking us along and looking forward to you next adventure.
Getting your hands wet during those early hours is always brutal! I usually stop fishing and stand there with my hands in my pockets for at least 5 minutes before I start fishing again. You need to be able to fell your hands to fish!
I had wanted to get out that way for a couple of years now and I am glad I finally made it. The bobber and a nymph is great for expanding the attack. I really like it when I see a fish follow my jig but won't strike or misses it. I can then hit it with a completely different look with that simple set up.
real nice looking fish and hard fighting. Tons of river out that way to explore. I want to get back out there when road construction crews aren't in the way of the best looking areas to fish!
Happy Thanksgiving Brother ...Glad i caught your video, Some nice catches! It hit 20 degrees at my home, I dont know how you can stick your hands in that freezing water...your tough..ha 😅
Getting your hands wet in that weather sucks for sure but if it's a decent fish I don't care. I need the really small ones to just fall off that barbless hook! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
Try running the jig under the bobber in the slower water…..Steelhead are big rainbow trout, and Steelhead love jigs drifted under a float I. Slower moving water
Thanks. I use 1/8oz marabou jigs. I was thinking about getting some 1/4oz jigs for the higher flows next spring. I have a video on my fishing tips playlist that details all of the jigs I have had success with since I started using them a few years back.
I am using the cheap crappie jigs from bass pro shops here but they fall apart really easy and require wrapping a tight later of yarn around them. The gold hooks are tougher to file off as well. I've had success with a few different brands. I have a clip on my fishing tips playlist that details the different brands I have had success with. The ones made by Hawken fishing are my favorite. They don't fall apart and the barbs are easy to file off.

"AH HA HA HAY....Gotta sacrifice some skin!" that laugh, too funny, Amani.... "Bobber down! Bobber down! Bobber down!"
I don't mind getting the hands wet for decent fish when it's really cold but I am always hoping the small ones cooperate and just fall off!

Right on. I'll be heading up past that way at least a few times this cold season.
If it works, it works.... That's fishing in a nutshell. Thanks for showing us another area of NorCal fishing water. I need to get out more.
My most of my whole fishing approach is formed around that concept.

You make it so interesting no matter what the conditions.
Right on. Scouting rivers is always an adventure.
Those were some very healthy looking rainbows. Awesome !

The Marabou King strikes again!
Yes!
Beautiful fish.
I can't argue with that. The video doesn't do the amazing colors justice.
Nice
Love those rainbows in there.
You hit 10K!!!!
Yeah, it took a while but I got there. My fishing universe continues to grow!

#2👍🏻🎣👀
Right on. This opens a new area for the North Fork of the Feather. There are many miles of river to fish along that highway.
hi Amani , my dad used to take us to The North Fork of the feather river before it got damned. Love your attitude or is that cold. nice fish Walt
Right on. I was surprised how many power stations and dams are on it. I need more investigating.
You're a beast Amani fishing in 20 plus degree weather but always enjoy your videos ! What weight jig do you use?

What brand you throwing? Can only find Trout Magnet brand at Bass Pro.
