    To everyone who is upset about my trout handling I truly appreciate all of your educational tips as I consider myself a bass fisherman over anything else and would love to improve my skills! With that being said please do not target me for "unexpectedly" catching a trout while I was smallmouth fishing! I was overcome with excitement and didn't even think about how I was gonna land this fish(i still cared much more then others) but when we look at the grand scheme of things and colorado fishing pages/facebook/RUclips and what not I see MUCH worse trout handling then mine and not to mention the amount of people that gill fu#k a fish and try to release them! ALL FUTURE TROUT VIDEOS WILL HAVE A LANDING NET, thanks in advance

      While I would agree you didn't handle the trout properly I appreciate that you were taking care toward the middle/end of the handling, you revived him enough before measuring and weighing to save him, otherwise he would have been toast so kudos! I fished trout all my life but I have switched over to bass, one of the main reasons was that I just hate how delicate trout are, I almost always use fly gear now to target them but this one nailed your treble crank, not much you can do but what you did. Great video!

      Man I'm sorry to hear that brother, what I would say is that compared to Texas the lbs of fish per acre is a lot smaller so a bit less opportunity for bites! Also I feel like most bodies of water in Texas you could just fish and catch a bass but here its a lot of spot finding, & then I will literally have to just throw several different baits until I lock onto a pattern(which can literally change overnight, not sure if that happens in Texas) but I would say overall I've had equal success on hard baits and soft plastics!

      My secret to getting on catfish was to put some livers in a small plastic bucket and letting them sit in the sun for a few days. I would tie a line to the bucket and toss it in the water after poking some holes in the lid. Unfortunately, here in Colorado I think these cats are used to a different food source. Im gonna try some small live bluegill and crayfish when i head back out. Theres a spot in SW Denver that has some MONSTER cats so let me know if you want to join us one night this spring.

      I would say honestly if you have a day to fish and enjoy a little hike its worth a good walk down the platte to just simply look for spots!

      @avshockey6633 4 года назад

      Anything that swims in Chatfield also lives in the Platte. A lot of fish get washed into the river especially in the Spring and early Summer when they are releasing more water because of runoff. Rainbows, walleye, and smallies get washed into the river on a pretty regular basis.

    nice casts!! I am just learning the baitcaser reel but its so much fun. LOTS of birds nest so far but I bike the platte river all the time I always wondered if there were Bass in there. But what a beautiful rainbow you had! My name is Jess send any tips or tricks you have for me!!

    • @fishingcolorado
      @fishingcolorado  4 года назад

      Heyy Jess! Thanks for stopping by, as far as the baitcaster goes I would say something that really helps with bird nests is to always have the baitcaster on specific settings. I would put your left dial to 6 o'clock, and adjust your far right dial(not the drag) each time you change the bait as the size of the weight will vary! Tighten this dial to the max and then click the bail as if you were casting. No line should come out! Then slowly loosen the dial until your lure begins to lower naturally! Once you've done this your casting settings are set! Finally as far as the platte goes its an awesome place to fish but lately has been extremely grassy! I've been hoping it will wash away soon as most casts result in grass piles! I hope this all helps some but keep up it up Jess!🎣

I would have never anticipated a trout to eat it and out of pure excitement I landed the fish, however I would say that if you join Facebook fishing groups such as Fishing Colorado or look at people catching fish on the app Fishbrain my fish handling is unfortunately better then 90% of the common fishing folks.
