12:00 "Oh wait I didn't properly release the trout which is in delirium because of low blood oxygen. Well, I think I'm going to do an other lift out into the air and release him again so he can swim away nicely!" - Good job dude :-/
I’m from NM. If that’s a small creek, I can’t imagine what would constitute a medium-sized river over in your neck of the woods. That “small creek” would be a raging river over here in the desert.
Yeah the problem is these crazy shooters killing loads of people. Not only does it kill a bunch of people, but it also ends up taking guns out of the hands of good people.
Good thing you switched from 10 to 6lb. These fish spook easily and you don’t need more than 4-6lb with these fish. I fished the southern tributaries of Lake Ontario my whole life. I’ve now moved to Las Vegas and miss this fishing so much!
Dude i don't fish at all but watching people who are super into fishing use all the fishing lingo and talk about it so passionately is stupidly entertaining.
I fish with 20lb braid and 15lb fluorocarbon hook length and I catch trout most days. They aren't to bothered, trust me. I fish with expensive trout lures and I want them back lol. I love your trout vids almost as much as your kayak vids bro.
When I release a trout I first take a sip of Pinot Noir while I cradle it gently in the water with my pinky toes. I then call out to the eagles “Screech! Screeech!!!” Finally, I take a bite of my truffle infused caviar before releasing the fish from my pinky toes to swim another day!! Bliss!!
People need to relax, the fish is fine and swam away into the current. If it was me, I would have coddled it gently and fried it in a pan. Kudos to anyone that releases a delicious fish regardless of the handling.
Well, trouts immune system, is the slime layer that is on the fish, when you either handle the fish with dry hands. or laying it on the bank like he does in the video. that slime layer gets damagede. even tho the fish swam off it's most likely gonna die from fungal infection or some kind of other disease
What's up dude that river is awesome that time of year. Should come up this October... Awsome video it feels good seeing my home town river in your videos looking forward to watching more
Dude, the trout at 3:00 was a REALLY nice fish. I have never caught one that big here near Pittsburgh. We have a bunch of rivers, stocked lakes, and fishing spots, but you rarely ever see trout that nice.
You should get cleardrift eggs, they're made in Canada and imitate eggs perfectly, we use them here in New Zealand for huge canal trout, Google them and find a supplier, definitely worth if you're gonna target trout a lot
For the new trout fishermen watching please bring a net and practice release management. Don't let them roll around in the dirt and gravel. These are very sensitive fish at a vulnerable time and how you handle them should be the 1st concern
if you use a swivel from your main line to fluro leader run a tag end off the swivel and attach your split shot to it. That way if you get snagged it slides off and no damage to your fluro... try it! nice video though
I only use 4-8 lb test tines for salmon, steel head, and trout. I have a 39 1/2 king salmon on wall caught on flyrod 6 lb leader. My personal best brown was 37" pushing close to 20 lbs. My biggest Chinook salmon was a male 45 1/4" on 4 lb test on 10' noodle rod and crawfish tail.....That fight lasted an hour before landing it in 9 foot of water...on Root River in Racine, WI.....I don't weigh them much....but do meassure them a lot. I know that male was heavy.
Used to fish regularly until my stroke a couple years ago. While in Jr. High, dad and I took a weekend trip to hit the winter run silvers coming in from the Pacific. Cast a silver Krock-o-dile with a 0/1 treble, into a deep slack water above a farm ford. On my third cast a 40+ inch Chinook hit the spoon and shot out of the slack water right into some white water below the ford. It took me, with dad's help, almost 20 minutes to land the fish. It was a big hook jawed bull that tipped the scales at over 32 pounds. Holding it up for a photo, the fish's snoot was even with my nose and the tail was half way to my ankles. At the time it was all I could do to hold it up, back then I stood about 5'9". That was the biggest river fish I took. Was using a 7.5ft Roddy bamboo rod, 15 pound line, with a 20 pound leader and a Mitchell 300 reel, my second one. Still have the rod and reel today. Was using it the weekend before my stroke on one of our local lakes going after trout. Cannot get out and fish like I used to do, back in the early 1960's, so I enjoy watching you kids fish. - - - //es//A Proud Honorable Disabled American Veteran, 1965-1994 - Combat Medicine and Pharmacy.

Shelly from the PNW sorry to here about your stroke hope you recover and can go back fishing . Mitchell 300 I used them in in the 70 ies to the. Mid 90 ies loved them such a smooth drag. Merry Christmas from Canada 🇨🇦
@@will4918 I am as recovered as I am going to get, I have problems with my balance and walking any distance with out a mobility device, a walker. Got my fishing license for this year and going to hit the fishing pond just south of where I live for starters. It is stocked once a year, with some fair sized trout. Last year I saw a guy take three 16 inchers out of the pond. So far there are only trout in the pond, but just like a pond that I fished while in junior high, someone is bound to turn crappie or blue gill loose into it. Have a canoe with electric motor, that I have only used a few times, hopefully I can get it up to my favorite reservoir and do some fishing up there this year as well. I want to be as active as my dad was, before his death, the year before he got sick he brought in a 40+ inch Chinook from the Umpqua river, he took it on a light weight rig, a short rod about +/- 5ft long, with an old Mitchell 300 reel strung with 6 pound mono line and using a 1/4 ounce brown rooster-tail lure, he was 79 y/o at the time, if he was still with us today he would be turning 102y/o on his birthday this year. He taught me almost everything I know about the out of doors. My largest fish measured 6'4" weighed in at 94 5/8 pounds, took it when I was 15, we were about 5 miles offshore out of Winchester Bay, OR. Was using my 7.5ft Roddy rod, my first Mitchell 300, strung with 15 pound mono line and an 80 pound steel leader, using double set of 0/1 Eagleclaw hooks and was bouncing a herring filet along the bottom when the fish took it. It took me nearly an hour to land it. Once in the boat, it nearly took my foot off when I slipped on the wet deck ended up with my foot nearly in its mouth. On top of that I limited out with two silvers, a buck and a hen and a buck Chinook that day. A fun day and the first time I ever got sea sick. The next time was 7 years later in the middle of a typhoon, the third day of it, in the West Pacific, while my unit was being transported aboard a LST to mainland Japan for a training exercise. My strangest catch was an eight foot octopus, tentacle tip to tentacle tip, caught on the reef on the South China Sea side of Okinawa. I gave it to some local fisherman, when we were done fishing and snorkeling for the day, the fisherman invite my friend and I over for supper, fresh raw octopus, seaweed soup and spiced rice balls, washed down with plenty of sake. Those were fun days, on days off it was going snorkeling, catching a lobster or two for supper, then laying in the sun on the beach or sitting around a fire cooking your lobster, then drink beer or sake until you could barely stand up, then sleeping it off on the beach. The JP's never bothered us, as long as we did not drive drunk. //es//A 70y/o Active (nearly) Outdoors Lady and Veteran
Wow... that trout on day 2! It's good that you have this extra video stashed away. You know about the shit that happened to me with the external drive thing. Now, with everything frozen it is not easy (as you know) to create from RECENT content
jimishmong What a stupid comment. Let me understand this; you follow "country" fishermen around and observe poor fish handlings and releases? That's an interesting point. On the other hand, you may just be an idiot. In the past, upstate New York has been plagued with hunters and anglers that come up from NYC that have no concept of gun safety or respect for the land and waters. Any serious trout angler knows what I'm talking about. These are the idiots that litter beautiful streams with Styrofoam coffee cups, beer cans/bottles, and trash.
Awesome video! Can’t wait for the fishing to get good here in pa to start releasing videos. Hope we get some good ice so I can hit the lakes here soon! I got a 24 inch male brown last year my pb for brown trout had a jaw just like yours.
Great vid looking forward to your Niagra vid. I fished the Niagra just one day and want to go back for a few days myself. Love fishing out there and headed back to the Salmon for a few days this spring.
If your going for stocked lake trout. Here's a tip. Use TINY HOOKS Powerbait dough balls. They ALWAYS work. You just have to find the right color for the day. Light line Small splitshots And honestly, let it sit with some slack out and only reel in a tiny bit every 10-20 mins. Honestly, where I am the bite hard and fast like trout you'll see that line go out . Keep your rod tip down, and when it pulls, pull up hard to hook it right in the jaw. And you know what to do from there if ur gonna keep em
Wish i would have seen what your using...probably a spinner ehh.dang that is so exciting even when you loose them,,,,, hell, i had the sound down! Oh ya wow, nice...the rapids and that brush!!!
You actually did really good. Came to my area and caught more than I ever have. My best was a fat 23" Brown and a 28" Steelhead :( in one morning. Woulda out done that but didn't realize the ceramic was cracked at my top guide and my line kept breaking.
In BC Canada we use much heavier leaders. 15 lb is pretty much as low as we go. 10 lb leader is just too light when you are gear fishing in a river full of rapids and snags...you will break off fish and lose lots of gear. For bottom bouncing...replace your split shot with a 1/8 inch diameter lead core drop weight hanging on a three-way swivel with a mono loop. It won't wreck your line and you should be able to throw it all day without snagging. If you set the drop up properly your gear will track about 6 inches off the bottom...perfect for the taking -something split shot does not do. The drop weights and mono can be varied in length depending on the depth and conditions. You might have to search around for the 1/8 inch lead core but its worth it.
i live in scarborough but all the old spots have been outfished, id wanna go for some trout fishing any spots in these tributaries youd be willing to tell me ? god bless
Hey did you take down the Niagara river videos? Always wanted to make the trip up for years and wanted to rewatch your vids from when you went since im finally planning a trip up in a few months. Take it easy!
Dakota Clark useless with everything he does prior, trout out of water, multiple studiesmconducted, 30 seconds out of water survival rate cut in half, anything after that, dead fish swiming. This trout handling skills fucking suck. They might swim away doesn't mean they will live!!!
Miny Smith I fish a stocked pond at least 3 times a week. I’ve seen people keep trout out of the water for minutes to pass it around taking pictures. I’ve seen people leave them on stringers half the morning then decide to release them. And you know what? There’s no piles of dead fish floating up to the banks ever. Instead of reading blogs and watching RUclips videos, get out and fish yourself instead of judging other people fish on the internet.
Nice fish man. Hey...when fishing those rivers...try using a Centerpin Rod and Reel. It makes trout fishing tributaries easymode and the fights on those 13 foot rods are fun. Also when fighting those trout you are losing them because you have your rod tip straight up in the air as opposed to applying side pressure which centerpinning will help out with as well.
nice vid....pro tip...pack a cotton glove to wrangle fish without a net. The glove will cut right through the slime and make them a hell of a lot easier to tail! Learned that trick brood stocking at a salmon hatchery.
To prevent break off from line damage, do not crimp the split shot directly to the line. Where you would put the weight, cut the line and install a connector such as a swivel or split ring. Then tie on a short, 3 inch dropper of line to the connector and crimp the shot onto that. Not only will it not crimp the mainline but, if you snag just the weight onto a rock or something, a strong pull will get the line to slip though the weight and you get everything back except the weight. Just put another shot on and you are back to fishing instead of tying up an entire rig. You are welcome and it is good you got a knotless net. Now crimp the barb on the hook and use pliers to get the hook out, all while keeping the fish on the surface of the water, but not actually out of the water. You can get some great pics while cradling the fish on the surface.
yo chris.. awesome video. thanks for sharing.. u had mentioned something about ur split shots pinching n causing ur line to possibly break.. I agree a 100%.. i mainly fly fish but seem to have that problem also. or should i say DID have that problem. what i do now is where i want the shot to be . I tie a simple granny knot n then put the shot above that n barely n i mean barely pinch the shot. yes it will slide but down to the knot n almost never slide up.. I'm sure you've herd this before. give it a try. some people have the argument that the granny knot itself will cause the line to break or weaken it.. i think i stand a better chance with the knot rather then the pinch
Hey great vid and great fish 😀👍i live in Edinburgh,Scotland and i just wanted to know if those pink worms would be good to catch wild browns,all the small tackle shops have recently closed down and now there is just 1 in the city but its a huge place more like a warehouse and it's very expensive compared to what the small shops were 😞 and tbh the staff are fishing snobs 😠 its fly fishing only in the best river near me and we have a smaller river 5 mins from my house that we can only use worms or maggots,no lures,soft plastics or blades in both the rivers,they never give advice for lure fishing like they are looking down their nose at me bc i dont fly fish (yet) yet the shop sells thousands of lures of all kinds 😞anyways im just wondering if you can tell me of any soft plastics that wild brown trout would take as ive never used them before ,there is a small mountain stream 30 mins from me and there is no restrictions there,ive caught before on worms but nothing else ive tried for bait 😞 Thanks in advance and Tight Lines 👍 ✌👍from Scotland 🙋
@@yooooooooo459 Thanks Mark I just saw your reply myself lol something just made me want to watch this vid so I’m glad I did 👍🏻 thanks for the info pal I’ll check them out ✌🏻💙👍🏻♥️🎣🏴
It's funny reading all the comments about how he handled the fish. The comments are probably from a bunch of fly fisherman. They practically start foaming out the mouth when they see somebody else catch a nice fish with something other than a fly rod.
i love all those spots Brian sometimes we get real big fish in those smaller streams . I check with bill and mikes fishing channel before i go up to wny its 6hrs for me , anyway fish on brother good luck
carl snow where you live? I live in Altoona PA? It's about 5.5 hours for me. I like them all too. And a few smaller ones that I'm sure you know as well. Tight Lines Bro! PS- Bill and Mike's channel is great. Spent the second half of October in the hospital and their vids were as close as I could get. Lol.
hey brian hope all is well with the hospital stay i live in a small town in dutchess county new york called wingdale lol about 30 minutes from danbury connecticut . great chatting with ya maybe see you up there in the future !!!! fish on
I’m not from the us I’m from Ireland which has no rainbows only browns but that just seems like an ordinary rainbow cuz aren’t steelhead the ones who make the migration like salmon so they are silver ?
Everyone stop fucking crying about the way he handles the fish, he did not handle them badly. The fish were in good condition and went back in the water in good condition, no harm done.
Dude, as always, dope videos and epic catches! Keep it up brotha! Now I'm gonna have to get back out fishing, it's been too long since I've gotten my rod wet! Tight lines brooha!
Great video. But gilling a big trout like that is cringeworthy. Shouldn't let them on the dirt like that. And a decent rubber mesh net would be much better for the fish. Again these things make allot of people, along with myself cringe. Awesome fish though, seems like a fish of a lifetime. Congrats.
Not as big a moron as people whose vocabulary doesn't expand beyond "cringe." That comment sounds completely idiotic. I am not disagreeing with the sentiment.
PSA: if you are planning on releasing fish dont put it on the dirt and grass and try to keep it in the water as much as possible.
If that's a small creek I wanna see a big one. Looks like the river where I live.

That Brownie was huge!! Congratulations man good job landing it. Good display of patience
What good does it do to wet your hands when the fish is laying on the ground ?
Shut the fuck up u pussy
@@simppatrol1728 youre an idiot he makes a 100% fair point, if that fish survived i would be very surprised

Great fish man, well done. You worked for that and it paid off......Thankyou for sharing this session with us.
I’m from NM. If that’s a small creek, I can’t imagine what would constitute a medium-sized river over in your neck of the woods. That “small creek” would be a raging river over here in the desert.

It was a big hook jawed bull that tipped the scales at over 32 pounds. Holding it up for a photo, the fish's snoot was even with my nose and the tail was half way to my ankles. At the time it was all I could do to hold it up, back then I stood about 5'9". That was the biggest river fish I took. Was using a 7.5ft Roddy bamboo rod, 15 pound line, with a 20 pound leader and a Mitchell 300 reel, my second one. Still have the rod and reel today.

You guys do release he apologized for his fish handling skills in the description of the video right?
Finally finally hooked up..great job man🙂
Nice catches! Cringing seeing so many break offs, gotta up the line to 15 pound.
Stunning fish, bravo ! What's the approximate age of the fish ?
You and your trout handling skills hurt .
I think guys that grow up in the city tend to have less appreciation for animals and more appreciation for youtube views
Eh that may seem true but i've seen country people handle trout even worse or in general other fish species too
Wow look at that trout he caught !
x 2....just brutal to do that with a fish that will be released.

fishing trout is an art. witch really takes patience.
Really enjoy watching this trip. What happened to the Niagara river videos?
Great video. What do you think the fishes survival chances are after it breaks off? Hopefully it has enough time to spawn
Awesome job with the camera. Nice fish
Hopefully we will see another Florida road trip this spring. You need to get out of that cold weather.

Hey question where that video you and Brennan at naigra fall and them steelhead pearl white swimbait I can't it what bait did you use ?
Great vid looking forward to your Niagra vid. I fished the Niagra just one day and want to go back for a few days myself. Love fishing out there and headed back to the Salmon for a few days this spring.
Nice to see some Pink worm action on the stream. I need to try that!!
U are killing me! I can't wait for spring to get up after some steelhead!!!
Traper Joe if you fish the same area he does then they aren’t steelhead they’re just trout as it hasn’t come from an ocean
Enjoy the vids brotha, you gotta do what u gotta do!
If your going for stocked lake trout. Here's a tip.
Use TINY HOOKS
Powerbait dough balls. They ALWAYS work. You just have to find the right color for the day.
Light line
Small splitshots
And honestly, let it sit with some slack out and only reel in a tiny bit every 10-20 mins. Honestly, where I am the bite hard and fast like trout you'll see that line go out .
Keep your rod tip down, and when it pulls, pull up hard to hook it right in the jaw. And you know what to do from there if ur gonna keep em
Great video !!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice video! Great trout! 👍👍
Was curious to see the last one, but hopefully next time! Tight Lines! 🎣

In BC Canada we use much heavier leaders. 15 lb is pretty much as low as we go. 10 lb leader is just too light when you are gear fishing in a river full of rapids and snags...you will break off fish and lose lots of gear. For bottom bouncing...replace your split shot with a 1/8 inch diameter lead core drop weight hanging on a three-way swivel with a mono loop. It won't wreck your line and you should be able to throw it all day without snagging. If you set the drop up properly your gear will track about 6 inches off the bottom...perfect for the taking -something split shot does not do. The drop weights and mono can be varied in length depending on the depth and conditions. You might have to search around for the 1/8 inch lead core but its worth it.
it looks like your fishing in the Bourne Identity movie! those woods, bridges and overall colour tone are cool😀
Nice vid, congrats on the personal best! Don't sweat all the negativity...do your thing.
lastonefishing yea, keep killing the fish, do your thing.
lastonefishing Way way to many trolls commenting.
Paladin Anderson the brown trout would have lived
I river fished since childhood buddy and I assure you, there is nothing better than spinners for trout....V
100%
What tributary was it? Or where .... I fish the ones from blind sodus to Oswego
i live in scarborough but all the old spots have been outfished, id wanna go for some trout fishing any spots in these tributaries youd be willing to tell me ? god bless
Hey did you take down the Niagara river videos? Always wanted to make the trip up for years and wanted to rewatch your vids from when you went since im finally planning a trip up in a few months. Take it easy!
Wish I had trout like that here in Kansas the only fat trouts we see here are in the local bars 😂😂😂 subbed great job guys
I hope you thanked the fish gods for that one!
Perhaps the most nonchalant trophy brown trout catch I’ve ever see
Just a tip if you want a really healthy release face the fish upstream. It’s good for the fish and you get to see it swim away healthy
Dakota Clark useless with everything he does prior, trout out of water, multiple studiesmconducted, 30 seconds out of water survival rate cut in half, anything after that, dead fish swiming. This trout handling skills fucking suck. They might swim away doesn't mean they will live!!!

Miny Smith I fish a stocked pond at least 3 times a week. I’ve seen people keep trout out of the water for minutes to pass it around taking pictures. I’ve seen people leave them on stringers half the morning then decide to release them. And you know what? There’s no piles of dead fish floating up to the banks ever. Instead of reading blogs and watching RUclips videos, get out and fish yourself instead of judging other people fish on the internet.
Dakota Clark Please use the word healthy a few more times lol
Nice fish man. Hey...when fishing those rivers...try using a Centerpin Rod and Reel. It makes trout fishing tributaries easymode and the fights on those 13 foot rods are fun. Also when fighting those trout you are losing them because you have your rod tip straight up in the air as opposed to applying side pressure which centerpinning will help out with as well.
nice vid....pro tip...pack a cotton glove to wrangle fish without a net. The glove will cut right through the slime and make them a hell of a lot easier to tail! Learned that trick brood stocking at a salmon hatchery.
If you are worried about the split shot crimping the line, tie a 4" dropper on and add the split shot to the dropper instead of the main line.
Lovely big brownie. Would that fish have travelled up from the Loch or do you get big river trout like that. ❓
moosehead68 from Lake Ontario I believe
What are they typically hunting in the background?
That was a big brown bro niiice work 😎🤙🏼🎣
To prevent break off from line damage, do not crimp the split shot directly to the line. Where you would put the weight, cut the line and install a connector such as a swivel or split ring. Then tie on a short, 3 inch dropper of line to the connector and crimp the shot onto that. Not only will it not crimp the mainline but, if you snag just the weight onto a rock or something, a strong pull will get the line to slip though the weight and you get everything back except the weight. Just put another shot on and you are back to fishing instead of tying up an entire rig. You are welcome and it is good you got a knotless net. Now crimp the barb on the hook and use pliers to get the hook out, all while keeping the fish on the surface of the water, but not actually out of the water. You can get some great pics while cradling the fish on the surface.
yo chris.. awesome video. thanks for sharing.. u had mentioned something about ur split shots pinching n causing ur line to possibly break.. I agree a 100%.. i mainly fly fish but seem to have that problem also. or should i say DID have that problem. what i do now is where i want the shot to be . I tie a simple granny knot n then put the shot above that n barely n i mean barely pinch the shot. yes it will slide but down to the knot n almost never slide up.. I'm sure you've herd this before. give it a try. some people have the argument that the granny knot itself will cause the line to break or weaken it.. i think i stand a better chance with the knot rather then the pinch
thanks
For the steel head how do you set your pink warms up?
Great video man thanks for posting
Where do you get your egg sacs? I know a guy that uses them here in NC and he kills the trout I would like to find some to try
My little grandson and I, sure enjoyed watching you catch that big brown! Thanks for bleeping out the bad language. He's just 2.5 years old.
Hey great vid and great fish 😀👍i live in Edinburgh,Scotland and i just wanted to know if those pink worms would be good to catch wild browns,all the small tackle shops have recently closed down and now there is just 1 in the city but its a huge place more like a warehouse and it's very expensive compared to what the small shops were 😞 and tbh the staff are fishing snobs 😠 its fly fishing only in the best river near me and we have a smaller river 5 mins from my house that we can only use worms or maggots,no lures,soft plastics or blades in both the rivers,they never give advice for lure fishing like they are looking down their nose at me bc i dont fly fish (yet) yet the shop sells thousands of lures of all kinds 😞anyways im just wondering if you can tell me of any soft plastics that wild brown trout would take as ive never used them before ,there is a small mountain stream 30 mins from me and there is no restrictions there,ive caught before on worms but nothing else ive tried for bait 😞
Thanks in advance and Tight Lines 👍
✌👍from Scotland 🙋
i know this was 4 years ago and you've probably figured it out but berkley T tail minnows in the olive pearl colour always work good for me
@@yooooooooo459 Thanks Mark I just saw your reply myself lol something just made me want to watch this vid so I’m glad I did 👍🏻 thanks for the info pal I’ll check them out ✌🏻💙👍🏻♥️🎣🏴
Nice fish dude!
Awesome fishing! can you guys eat these fish if you wanted or are they not safe?
Mondo Brownie holy jeez.....awesome job🐠🐟🐠🐟
Nice vid 👊🏽 what bait are u using ?
Gosh I will try egg sacks that was a great inspirational video 👍
Nice fish. I can't wait to start going .
It's funny reading all the comments about how he handled the fish. The comments are probably from a bunch of fly fisherman. They practically start foaming out the mouth when they see somebody else catch a nice fish with something other than a fly rod.
What line and gear did you use. Why no strike indicator?
You can feel them hit
Great vid man. I think you handled the fish find. It was a tough situation to land that without a buddy. Haters gonna hate
looks like you went to oak orchard creek i have fished there lots of times . if you go up that way try burt dam or johnson creek you will love it
carl snow Johnsons is my favorite spot in wny.
i love all those spots Brian sometimes we get real big fish in those smaller streams . I check with bill and mikes fishing channel before i go up to wny its 6hrs for me , anyway fish on brother good luck
carl snow where you live? I live in Altoona PA? It's about 5.5 hours for me. I like them all too. And a few smaller ones that I'm sure you know as well. Tight Lines Bro!
PS- Bill and Mike's channel is great. Spent the second half of October in the hospital and their vids were as close as I could get. Lol.
hey brian hope all is well with the hospital stay i live in a small town in dutchess county new york called wingdale lol about 30 minutes from danbury connecticut . great chatting with ya maybe see you up there in the future !!!! fish on
The tree spot is sweet! I fish there all the time
is this on the oak?
Can you say what month was the actual fishing done?
I’m not from the us I’m from Ireland which has no rainbows only browns but that just seems like an ordinary rainbow cuz aren’t steelhead the ones who make the migration like salmon so they are silver ?
Everyone stop fucking crying about the way he handles the fish, he did not handle them badly. The fish were in good condition and went back in the water in good condition, no harm done.
Great video buddy! sweet catches for sure! :)
Is it even legal to fish streams for trout in the winter. I thought season opened in April?
Dude I'd freak catching one of those! Dream fishing trip Ima do at some point
7citiesfishing m
Dude, as always, dope videos and epic catches! Keep it up brotha! Now I'm gonna have to get back out fishing, it's been too long since I've gotten my rod wet!
Tight lines brooha!
These are great fish! I have never caught a trout like that in my life! I have to ask though, why do you not use a net?
Nice job scouting unknown small creeks. Were those gunshots at 1:01 through 2:07?
Great video. But gilling a big trout like that is cringeworthy. Shouldn't let them on the dirt like that. And a decent rubber mesh net would be much better for the fish. Again these things make allot of people, along with myself cringe. Awesome fish though, seems like a fish of a lifetime. Congrats.
Oh no! Somebody is cringing!
Not as big a moron as people whose vocabulary doesn't expand beyond "cringe." That comment sounds completely idiotic. I am not disagreeing with the sentiment.
this nunnles guys comment makes me cringe
