      Thanks Chris. Besides just the color the size and the productivity. It’s such a beautiful place. If I could, I would show more backgrounds but it would get stomped all over. Thanks for watching Brother.

      They have some pretty large scuds in this lake. As well as grasshoppers that jump off the bank. They turn a little extra red around the time that they spawn. That’s how they attract the females.

    Hey man. Enjoy your videos. Especially since I am a colorado native. But just curious do you do any fishing at Ivanhoe? Up and down Hagerman’s pass? I hear they got some monsters in there but never been. Anyway, thanks for the videos man. Enjoy them and appreciate them! Stay safe

      @ReelHustle100 dude I've never even seen fish that big but I'll take ur advice I guess and maybe one day it will work out. Do u do any guiding by chance in places like this or is there any way u would ever give info out personally to spots that hold those monsters. I completely understand that most people don't for the sake of the fish there because in the wrong hands they get littered with trash and get over fished but if u have anything u would share lmk.

    Benny, any tips of general areas of where to go for good alpine lake fishing? I am local and live in southwest Denver area. Just hiked up to silver dollar and Murray with no luck 3 weeks back. Still iced over about 80 percent. I really want to get into some cutthroat even brook trout. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. How do I DM you as well if that would be better?

    • @ReelHustle100
      @ReelHustle100  Год назад

      Hey Mike, I recommend trying to find some lakes that are in the 12,000 foot range. If you hit me up on Facebook or Instagram, I can recommend a few that have cutthroat.

      @nefariousflix4520 personally, I like a 7wt st croix trout mojo. That’s my go too. I like to get the one with the fighting butt as well. I prefer seven weights because I enjoy the way they cast when it gets windy. And I also like to be able to muscle a big fish when the opportunity presents itself and keep it out of the weeds. It kind of depends on the size of Fish your used to catching or targeting. If you plan on catching 2 to 4 pound fish, I would say use a 5wt. If you plan on targeting fish that are 4 to 8 pounds I would say at 7wt. If you’re looking at fish that are 10 to 15 pounds I would say in 8wt
