A Beginner's Guide to Fly Fishing for Stocked Trout

9/6/22
In this video, I am going to be going over everything that I believe a beginner needs to get out there and fly fish for stocked trout!(In mainly creeks and streams) Even if you aren't a beginner, stick around, because you might learn some new tips and tricks for these stocked trout! I am no expert, infact, I have only been fly fishing for 2 years, but I hope that what I am going to show ya'll in today's video will help some people out! Please like and subscribe if you enjoyed to help out my channel!
IMPORTANT:
I forgot to mention this in a video, but a 5 wt is also a good option just like the 4 wt
And when I was talking about the tippet rings, I forgot to mention that I will cut off about 12-15 inches of my leader, attach the tippet ring, and have my strike indicator 5 inches above the tippet ring, where the line is somewhat thick. To make it easier, I will include my full rig:
9 ft 5x leader, with 12-15 inches of the thin end cut off
2mm tippet ring, with a airlock strike indicator 5 inches above(Adjust strike indicator based on depth)
2-4 feet of your tippet of choice
Your fly, or double fly setup
Thanks for Watching!!! Let me know if I can clarify anything in the comments!
I do NOT own the music, I got it from these videos:
• Steelhead Fishing 101 ...

Just a heads up, I forgot to add a small detail when describing the tippet ring setup, the info is in the description! Thanks for watching!

This is an extremely good video! Now sure all the stocked trout are in crazy overfished ponds, but still, well done my friend! I would LOVE seeing one of these style videos for steelhead… Keep working hard man! Tight lines! 🎣🎣🎣

[@troutmasteroutdoors]

Thanks man, I appreciate the feedback! I’ll make sure to post a steelhead one once I get steelheading footage this fall. If you want to get on some great stocked trout fishing, come down to PA! Tight lines🎣🤙🏾

@@troutmasteroutdoors I’ve been to what is considered “opening day” for stock trout, and it’s rough… literally I was there at 8 in the morning and the entire pond was packed, and people already had their limits on the stringers. If there’s any good stocked streams near Erie… I may make the drive up… 🎣🎣🎣

[@troutmasteroutdoors]

@@OHCreekFishing trust me man, opening day is not a good representation of trout fishing, it’s combat fishing at its finest🤣 There r a ton of low pressure streams in the south west portion of the state, but our best trout fishing is in eastern pa

Very informative video, especially the fly selection and fish locating parts. I might give it a year or two before I make the leap to fly fishing. Looks like a lot fun and very rewarding.

[@troutmasteroutdoors]

Thanks for watching! It is indeed a whole lot of fun, would highly recommend it🤙🏾🎣

[@robertbutler8005]

Great video. You brought the basics to light. In a down to earth way with some nice footage on the water. Sometimes I’ve found using a yarn indicator with a small rubber band like the ones for kids braces means a little less disturbance in a heavy pressure area. Flies you picked sure work where I like to fish. Enjoy the Spring

[@troutmasteroutdoors]

Thanks for watching man!

@@troutmasteroutdoors absolutely 👍 just caught my first stocked trout on the fly last weekend. Wish I’d have seen this first Expecially where to find them I hiked miles with literally one leg to accomplish it and I probably could’ve caught more sooner with this info 😂. No to mention the 1.6 million flys i tried lol 😝

[@CobraswallowerJfs]
