[@YNPBORN]

I’m sitting here on the bank of the Rogue, drinking wine ,waiting my turn to go out on the boat salmon fishing in a few days. Jordan, watching your videos gives me that adrenaline rush of actually fishing those streams. Love these videos!!!

[@chops5787]

You have a great ability to explain your process to the beginner as well as the pro.

[@Stekman101]

Stumbled across this channel while looking for some trout stuff. This dude totally seems like the kind of guy you want to sit down with, enjoy a beer, and just talk fishing. Got my sub.

[@desocratic]

Would've liked to see a Joe's Flies spinner in there, too.

[@lagginswag]

Those and jerries are my fav for slow moving creeks. Teeny wee craw too.

[@Matt-wl3em]

I like those or an all silver Blue fox in size 0

[@RyderLost]

Same

[@oflofl7177]

YES ALL JOES FLIES ARE AMAZING

[@eugenegress5896]

I have seen those in Various Stores; never Tried one.

[@CompulsiveLegoBuyer]

Yes! Love all of the catch and cook series from various survival and fishing KZbin pages, but it’s the tutorials that I wish there were more of! Definitely subscribing after seeing this one; I love the energy you have and willingness to explain things in a way that makes it easy for beginners to understand that doesn’t make it feel as confusing; understanding the fish mentality as well as the functions of the various lures is so huge and I appreciate you explaining them in more detail !

[@Pandakid13]

Fished with spinners for the first time after being gifted a bunch of them last week. Might be my new favorite way to fish with conventional gear. Even the nibbles were exciting and I pulled in a pound and a half bass on the smallest one! Still looking for trout in central Mn but I will report back with the results

[@nicklebac6753]

Where I am In montana I’m always catching trout on the mepps aglia

[@aaronready1]

In central Minnesota , Brainerd area. Started using Mepps spinners this summer after watching Jordan. The number 4 AGLIA ABSOLUTELY DOMINATED this summer. Caught Pike, Crappie, Bass, Whitefish, Sunfish. Never failed.

[@garysavala665]

Mepps are awesome they make every style .

[@Beesa10]

Fishing spinners is a simple yet really exciting method, I like how they can be retrieved quite slowly, the flashing blur plus the vibrating action seems irresistible to many species.

[@s.dot.23]

I’ve been fishing all year, yesterday I binged watched this channel for hours and this morning I caught my first fish ever and it was a good size too. That plus about 3-4 bites

[@sannekjer2820]

The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel kzbin.infoUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.

[@coloradocatchcleanandcook3426]

Blue Fox is hands down my favorite lure. Caught one of my PB best rainbows today on a silver Blue Fox. I have been fishing this same river sense I was 11 years old you just never know when I giant is going to smack your lure.

[@brucekuest2110]

Thanks! I have several of those spinners. Keep dropping videos, I am learning some great tips

[@HappyKatsFishing]

This was awesome. Helps to learn where to look for fish in the river. Thank you.

[@robertbeveridge8135]

These kind of tutorials is why I fell in love with this channel!

[@leebarnes393]

If fishing is slow 😜, I have 2 favorite lures, well ok 4, 3/8 oz. Copper and silver kastmaster and the same in a daredevil!! Add split shot if you have to!! Seems to work well in summer waters 😊!!

[@juanreese]

I do very much appreciate your videos. I have not fished in 30 years. I’m looking forward to finishing this next week. Bought a pedal kayak and got all my old gear out put new fishing line on my very old reels ,bought some new jigs. Can’t wait to go fishing.Keep up the good work.

[@michaelwright956]

Kayak fishing is awesome! I have the pedal drive Perception Pescador Pilot 12.0. So much fun and easy to fish small water. I hope you’re enjoying yourself getting back into the hobby.

[@richardcline5448]

never thought of using braid for trout always used fluro ,using the braid has been a game changer for me .Thanks another great tutorial on spinners for trout.

[@richardcline5448]

Awesome Video !! as always i just received the trout floats cant wait to use those things !!

[@Thee_Man_of_Steel]

I love Okuma! I have the Okuma Celilo rod, and the Ceymar C-40 reel and I love them. Never had any problems with either of them. I have an Okuma fly rod but am not sure how impressed I am with it. My son has an Okuma fly reel and that definitely doesn't compare to many other reels, but as far as a spinning set up, amazing. I went with that line up all because of these videos with Jordan.

[@danielhauck6595]

Spinner fishing for trout is 🔥. Could not agree more that the three first casts are the most important and to always be prepared for a fish to strike. Recently was out on the river fishing, there was this one section, a deep boily turbid eddy, with not a whole lot of fishable water. So before I went and fished the more likely water downstream, I casted my spinner (a 1/8 oz. rainbow rooster tail) up into the eddy and let the current work it into this deep seam in the eddy. First cast, bam, fish on! A nice big 14 1/2 inch rainbow. Anyway, it just reminded me to always fish every single little spot, because moments like the one I experienced are what we all fish for.

[@danielhauck6595]

I though we had seen the last of this scammer.

[@philabowl8073]

Awesome, an 1/2 hour fishing video we're 20 minutes of it isn't a catch and cook!! I don't mind the occasional catch and cook but I really like this Fishing channel...

[@JigginwithG]

I got a box of random cheap spinners for Christmas off of some wish Facebook add lmao. Didn’t think they would work well, caught a fish of every single one of them 💯🐟🪝

[@TheMelancholydragon]

KZbin has been dreadfully boring today until this vid came out! Stoked for this trout spinner info!!!!

[@elcucuyferguson8405]

Nice video as always jordan! As a trout angler from sweden i would love to see a faceoff between swedish and american spoons/spinners. Leeets go! :D

[@martinschulz9381]

My wife and I are going to get off the boat for the first time and do some river fishing here this summer. I haven't river fished since I was a boy so here I am. I used a lot of spinners and spoons back then ,but for trout old fashioned worms usually worked the best. Unfortunately many places have since outlawed live bait. Good video.

[@user-uk7ct5sl8w]

Bro Jordan looks so immaculate in this video. It’s crazy at the beginning with the sunlight shining off his face in the shade.

[@jonathonledward1525]

Another great Tuesday because of you guys! 👍

[@ronpoppe6517]

i been watching a few of the fishing vidieos on you tub and found that yours are very useful i am a begginer and cought two rainbow trout watching yours thanks keep up what you do

[@richbarengo]

Awesome video as always ! 🤙🍻

[@dkpow3349]

You got me back into fishing , thanks Jordan !

[@jakedavid8187]

Used some Thomas spinners and panther martains this weekend. Both in a kind of blue/silver trout color. The Thomas only caught one. The panther got about 6-7 Brooke trout. Thanks for the motivation!!! Come fish in wyoming il take ya in the oldest fishing boat you've ever fished haha

[@MichaelRomero]

Awesome I miss these kinds of videos tutorials and techniques.👏🏼

[@michaellipnos3213]

This is great! Thank you

[@gagepruett937]

Love it brother. Nice video

[@jarodhigginbotham398]

Crushing it as always bro!! Great educational video lil bro!!

[@erikpearson5310]

Love this video!

[@justinchan2453]

Another awesome vid Jordan! I was curious to know how you keep line twist out of your line when using a long leader like that and no swivel.

[@mattmaru9108]

You put in A LOT of work. Great job!

[@louielouie4187]

I got to tell you man you did a great job on the video I fished spinners for steelhead salmon and trout N Oregon Couple decades ago For quite a few years Also fished stripers at night and a couple of rivers out there that were very productive And because I love the inline spinners I got to say you did a great job great job

[@qotyit1655]

The Mepps with the fish is my favorite spinner, helped me hook up on many species of fish 🤙🏽....new subscriber, cool videos!

[@de4ndre3dwards]

ive never had luck with that one. maybe ill have to give it another shot!!!!

[@garysavala665]

Mepps comet are my favorite bass lure in number two I would like a smaller one to try out .

[@jamesjennings4900]

It would be awesome if you did more video about how to read water to find holding areas for fish during different river conditions, time of day, and seasonal weather. Thanks Jordan

[@vindice5849]

When you finally got into some fish I was screaming use the panther martin!

[@mrjuse5470]

I almost strictly use Panthers with a split shot 12-16 inches away from the lure for rivers and creeks because they are the easiest to control and fish slam em.

[@ndj6424]

Haha, glad to see the Buds spinners getting some play. Those were my go-to growing up simply because you could get two of those for the price of a rooster tail and two lures is always better than one!

[@stevef8065]

Your tutorials are great

[@dannyhero2536]

Yeaaah buddy just out for a rip and trying different things !!! Woot woot!!

[@RB-er2li]

Thank you for the tip

[@victoriaxholmes]

Love the educational vids guys! Always learn something new. Tight lines yall! 🤙🏼🎣🔥

[@the406_life9]

Red and white Mepps is a really great addition to the tackle works great in are Montana creeks

[@Beesa10]

I've been using 3/8oz Martin spinners, they work well for medium-fast water. I cut off the stock treble and replace with a split ring so I can attach fresh hooks of my choice.

[@temonhaynes6344]

When them trout clam up I use good ol rapala black and gold... Some reason works well... Size the three inch one cranked in like a spinner

[@creativeexperience6388]

Hands down my favorite fishing channel

[@Acribus1]

You guys should team up with leif again for a Backcountry camping trip for trout.

[@stanchlemon4769]

Panthers work best for me lately but all the spinners I've tried work.

[@TCB77]

Holy spinner Jordan! Had me sitting on the edge of my seat, audibly exclaiming. Love spinner fishing! S/O Blue fox, Mepps, Wedding Band, Lucky Strike etc Bet jigs under floats would’ve slayed tho.

[@articgrayling1300]

Stellar episode Jordan. My best luck is on panther martins, in rivers and lakes, have “yet” to catch anything on a rooster tail. Have you ever tried a larger blade on smaller bodies? Due to my stupidity in ordering online parts I ended up making a few spinners with that combination and they work! Waiting to see Jordan come out with his own spinner’s - with Knigge’ esk names and colours.

[@JoeDeLuise]

I ditched spinners when I discovered yo zuri pins minnows..... Never looked back. Love the content, keep up the good work!

[@stanstevenson631]

Luv the rooster tail in yellow for trout, pm for trout as well and definitely the blue fox and in vibrax for steelhead, but would also rate highly gold and silver smaller cast masters...great video tho

[@staceyhartman6825]

Luv any fishing video where they've got their dog with em! My terrier loved FRIED fish, but not trout sushi😅

[@brettoetting]

These are great and I use them for multi-species: Mepps Spin Fly and Eco Pro tungsten in-line spinner

[@waynegretzky8464]

Oh there he is!!! 🤣 Great video man thanks for the tips brutha!

[@collinmc90]

Well seeing you struggle to land one makes feel some what better about getting skunked the last couple times I went out haha. Same story on my end. I had one of the biggest trouts I have ever seen chasing my lures in, he was coming out of a submerged stump in the lake and would just go right back in.

[@SledorFish]

One of my favorite spinners in the summer was a Mepps or Blue Fox #1 & #2 with a plain brass blade and body. If it is old and tarnished even better.

[@doctordrommos6432]

I must be lucky, I got one in my box rn! I fish a lake though

[@rshock]

Heading to Colorado mountains in a week. This information came in handy

[@computersatan]

Dude Great content. Good tips on flies off a spinning rod and float from a previous video. I have been hooking em in the bubbles. Now i just gotta figure out how to get em out the current and in the net. This video with the spinners near the rocks , great for the upper Deschutes river Bend Oregon. Fighters .... fighters fighters. I'm new to actual fishing beyond hook and worm. Late last night and early tomorrow morning ..... Must be addicted. Great content ... I hope you have a video on fighting the trout out of the rocks and current to the shore as they are going upstream and holding by rocks.

[@LANsolo12]

The hype!!! Yes!!! When you hit that pocket and that fish hit!! You were amped.. lol

[@patrickgaffney5954]

Just bought a 7ft SST with a C-30 Ceymar reel. Love it so far! Appreciate the recommendation Jordan!!

[@kylesalmon31]

Exactly what I bought today

[@nicklebac6753]

I’m early 😎 I swear by the mepps! I catch a fish every time I use one of these trout fishing here in montana, i catch whitefish with it as well!

[@JohnJames.]

Yeah , my box is full of them, I use to only trust the dressed hooks , but they all just work

[@michaelwright956]

That last spinning lure that you used was a Mepps Comet. It absolutely slays in central NY trout streams. Especially the 0 and 1 sizes. The size 2 spinners and up are more for bass and walleye. The panther martin, mepps comet, roster tail, and kastmaster spoon are the mainstays in a trout catching arsenal. Try refishing those pools with the comet on. If they aren’t committing to the bite; down size the lure…

[@jeffwerth2707]

bright flashy spinners and sunny days don't go well unless its windy to put a chop on the water. Black spinners may work in that case - Panther Martin especially since it has a tighter spin vs. a Blue Fox. That is where roostertails rule - they come in bright and subdued colors. Always fun to chuck and wind - the fish do get used to them were bites in the mouth turn to hooked outside the mouth due to them slapping at it. Those turn to follows in close where they think they want it but something is "off". Then gone. Where as Jordan mentioned, switching colors or spinner types helps - give them something different. Tie on a decent snap swivel - give a lure 10 to 20 casts and switch

[@ryant169]

i love spinners. i wasn't having much luck jigging so i switched to a panther martin and nabbed a bunch of white bass. switched up to a rooster tail and hooked huge sheepshead. they can catch anything.

[@Shootersonly801]

Just got back into fishing after my 6 year gov funded vacation to a desert lol and these videos helped me go from getting skunked to slamming em. Haven't had this much success consistently ever all thanks to your advice I mainly stream fish trout in Utah. Thanks bro..

[@private2371]

Corcoran eh ?😂

[@rezlifeproductions9088]

Where I live has trout I really like your trout videos 💯👍

[@stenkeplinger6129]

you should make a trout worm/jig addicted kit.

[@2jzfox...]

My favorite spinner is a small copper spinner Martin. Never lets me down

[@mattygames1369]

One of the fam favs is a mepps comet, nice rainbow blue flox slays in the more muddy lakes in northern bc

[@jamesblair7549]

North Fork Lures has been producing some great spinners for steelhead/Trout

[@conk8636]

Had a few spinners in my younger years.. One even helped me catch 🦀s..

[@nathanroberts5731]

If you have roostertails and panther martins you can fish most any water between the 2. The best part about roostertails is the color selections. Sometimes it has as much to do with the color than anything in my experience. One of my favorite colors during the summertime is the bumblebee with a gold blade for Brook Trout and Brown Trout. I feel the rainbows generally like either black or white spinners with silver blades the most. I do feel the blade color plays more of a part with the likelyhood of catching certain species.

[@Spacecadet0730]

Hi Jordan, thanks for all the info you provide. One question I had, and I apologize if you addressed it elsewhere, but how do you deal with line twist. In-line spinners generate a ton of it, and I have been putting a swivel on a 1ft leader to help alleviate it some. But I didn't know if you had another trick I haven't tried. Thanks!

[@Cecilthediesel]

I use the same ozark trail box for my trout spinners theyre surprisingly pretty nice for the money

[@cheff12341]

You have awesome shows, I have learned a lot

[@raymondfox8550]

Hi there my brother,, heading to southern Ore,, Thursday,, Hopeing to have fish on Saturday,, 🤫👍🦊🙏

[@chaoskueen]

We have the same fav lure 🥰

[@nathanroberts5731]

Was fishing a black rooster tail with a silver blade the other day. Hooked into a 21 inch rainbow. Handed the rod over to my 5 year old son to reel it in. I had to climb down a 6ft. rock face to net it. My son was going nuts, the fish took a couple good runs tearing drag on him lol. He was used to reeling in 10-13 inch trout lol.

[@timothytrotter1865]

My go to is a all gold panther martin, thing just slays em.. I get trout, bass, crappie, & bluegills on them depending on where I’m at..

[@thomaswalsh7154]

Most spinners have a time and place where they work best. Discussing only the big brands. Panter Martins, work well in bigger faster water. Blue Fox, also work well in bigger faster waters but is louder. Mepps Agilia works well in shallower water and at slower more precise retrieves. Joe Flies with their colorado spoon is best when very slow retrieves are required. Roostertails are good when you need a fast retrieve, but forgotten any Panther martins or blue foxes.

[@JasonPoindexterus]

Great video as always! It kind of looked like you let your clipped tag end of the line fall on the ground. I hope that's not the case. Anyways, again fun video!

[@brettdixon1592]

Hey have you guys ever thought about trying the South bend ready to fish real and rod combos? They also give you gear that comes with the rod and reels as far as lures weights and all that kind of stuff. They have different types of rod and reel series, they have a trout, salmon, bass and a all species series.

[@michaelcarbis2286]

I literally have a box full of all gold panther martins the trout in Montana love them

[@NeonKue]

Blue Fox #3 hands down. Perfect size and vibrating blade you can feel plus it spins more consistent in any water condition.

[@JohnJames.]

I thought so too, until I used a size 0 on a ultralight, can still feel it

[@jdyzy]

I've caught more trout and steelhead on a #3 Blue Fox than I have all other spinners and spoons combined.

[@christianxbolt]

Awesome. What is your pick for a good trout rod

[@shawnhue4386]

Thanks for showing these failing casts there. That 's real fishing

[@logannewman4532]

I don't know why exactly but the unpainted solid copper blue fox has always been my most fish catchingest lure.

[@zyx543]

The Bluefox silver one,number 2 and 3 are the best lures for me.

[@davids11131113]

The Mepps minnow spinner used to be my favorite.

[@BEAUTYU]

good fishing friend

[@MrRamplead]

Stillhouse Hollow Lake. Stripped bass fishing heaven .

[@jamiea291]

can you give us your take on swivels? Feel like it speeds up the lure switching process but wanted to know if you think it impacts the lures effectiveness?

[@ajierfishing7767]

Good fishing

[@teaberrywmn]

Will you cover using a cast master lure? I've learned so much just by watching a few of your trout fishing tutorials and feel more confident than ever to get out there and catch.

[@appalachianwilds1146]

Jordan my guy!!!! I'd like to see you try a spinner called Joe's flies. it's a spinner with usually a little marabou or hackle tail I'd say. work really well here in Northwestern Pennsylvania. love the content. keep it up. been watching your videos non stop for the past two weeks

[@patebert1636]

Where did you find that weird fishy one? Ha, it’s awesome when you catch one on something that you wouldn’t think would work at all. Great job showing all of the time you spent searching, that can be a great part of the day when they aren’t biting, thanks for the great info!
