We need a east coast and midwest edition of addicted

[@user-ii8up3jx8b]

No, not really…. We don’t need any self-focused marketing personalities in a sport where competence used to be earned by going fishing and making mistakes. What was once a personal experience is now an “industry”. These guys aren’t the worst but definitely a sign of the over-commercialized times…

[@MrDilloncooper]

One of the most professional videos I've seen, clean and no bullshit demos ever! Thanks!

[@JohnMatrixOfficial]

Must important, you need the Hunter S Thompson glasses 😂. Love you Jordan 🍻

[@desocratic]

You mean the Dahmers?

[@gregmaxwell8284]

Nah he's a Rut Daniel's fan

[@victoriaxholmes]

Great lessons Jordan! Always love how you break everything down and make it all super approachable. Tight lines ADX! 🤙🏼🎣

[@andrewcable6016]

Came to steelhead fishing 2 years ago as a carp angler and I've found a standard snell with the beard on a loop formed by the tag end and back through the hook eye under the wraps gives me the best hookup ratio of anything I've tested. Been experimenting with tying the hook with a uni knot and the bead between the eye and the knot but both keep the bead right to the back of the hook but also out of the way, and if a fish gets any torque with the first method the bead will pop free

[@MIFish96]

What about a video on bottom bouncing beads? I see a lot of guys doing that in the Midwest.

[@mdaley3102]

I really enjoy your videos and they are very helpful. It’s great to see how excited you get when you catch a fish even though I’m sure you’ve caught soooo many.

[@jstjohn57]

I seem to always watch your videos AFTER I get off the river! Good info for this old man trying to figure it all. The info on casting was very much appreciated as I’m a bit wild in that department so obviously an area I need to focus.

[@chriskautz439]

This dude is such a pleasure to watch!!!

[@jeffb4612]

Awesome video Jordan, your a great teacher and entertainer.

[@fishduckdog]

Beautiful fish 🎣! Thanks 🙏 for sharing!

[@FlyTech541]

Because of you guys an elevated fishing tackle I wanna catch my first steelhead on a bead I’ve caught steelhead on a fly rod the bead fishing looks so fun

[@HappyKatsFishing]

I love this. Please help more with bead selection. Hard verses soft and when? Why? How to know color?

[@michaeleckert5133]

Wild to think I keep seeing yall fish down below my driveway and I never run into you guys 😂

[@toddknutson6317]

Oh my god that picture of cam 🤣😂🤣dying right now. Your tutorials are awesome. Keep it up ADX

[@AddictedFishing]

[@darrelljohnson4658]

Good class thanks Oregon

[@jstrand8338]

Crazy, this is the same basic tech we used in Montana in the late 80s and early 90s guiding on the Henry's fork and Madison🤙

[@Drewsfishingtrips]

I slowly have started to come to love beads almost as much as using real salmon egg sacs, they've definitely become a major weapon in my arsenal.

[@gregmaxwell8284]

Nice Rut Daniel shades

[@Felic335]

ADX IS the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@joshuawood7136]

Appreciate the information as always. Why do you prefer a standard clinch knot versus improved clinch knot? Any issues with slippage on larger fish resulting in loss of hook/fish?

[@stevevaughn9093]

Great and informative, as always. You said you would come back to discuss making the weight from the coil of pencil lead. Since I have about 10 pounds of this stuff I'd like to see that explained. Thanks.

[@expomm]

Thank you for great video and lessons. I live in EU we don’t have steel head but have perch, wall eye pike and trout in heavy current rivers, I always struggled fishing in this type of rivers, usually just fish with heavy sinkers but the snags are a pain. Will try this technique

[@edp1801]

Nice, I never saw or heard of little glass bead. I always just pegged the bead and cast.

[@brianpihl1652]

Should make a spinner tutorial on how to fish them down in front of the steelhead so you have a more likely chance of getting one. I’m starting to get the hang of it from a bit of Jordan’s teachings and a bit of my ingenuity but would be nice to see someone who knows how to do it down to a science.

[@2riversc.s.]

There are definitely spinner videos from Addicted.

[@danieldoss1987]

JKSU (Jordan Knigge State University) Thank you!

[@jessejmoralesjr9990]

Hey Jordan nice to see you back on the screen I haven't watched the video in so long the only thing that I have to ask why do you have such a long leader the way and it seems like you have more than a it looks like it seems like you have three different parts of the setup to we're it's 9ft long liter instead of only a 6 ft liter. And Jordan what I'd am used to be doing is have a six 6ft an four 4ft liter put together tied to my main line so I'd would have Ten ft liter that's put together. And then my main line. An I'd use a different bobber. I'd really need something better than before so could you send a video we're I'd could see much better You's putting it together how's it done please. I'd have pore eyes now being 58 almost 59 year's of age. I'd Love ❤️ the video

[@N8-tha-GR8]

#wetyourknots, im out here trying! using what im learning!

[@LocalHedgebitch]

I’m horrible at joining braid and mono so I’ve started using tippet rings (from fly fishing) instead of tying them directly

[@ML-ks2lj]

Wish youd have shown how close you can trim thst blood knot in this video. I tie the uni but i like to learn new knots

[@nicholasyebra1988]

I had both of those Okuma guys select. They both snapped on me on my fault.

[@michaelcatalano8882]

Only thing I will say for all the Midwest steelheaders out there is don't overlook an 8mm or 10mm glass bead. I have done a tremendous amount of fishing in steelhead alley and it is super pressured water which means generally speaking the more stealthy your setup is the more fish you will catch. A glass bead will sink because it is more dense than any of the bead types in this video so unless you are fishing really fast water you won't need to put any split shot on your line below your swivel and you will have the most natural presentation possible.

[@BigTuna69VCR]

Is the Okuma Guide Select Pro worth the cost difference over the Okuma SST Carbon Fiber? Thanks brother!! 💪🏿 🎣

[@coffeemonster6328]

Nope! its the same blank...

[@coffeemonster6328]

the most important part is showing up to the river and getting line in the water... It's the man that makes the gear, not the other way around

[@BigTuna69VCR]

@@coffeemonster6328 That's what I figured. And yeah I'm not a gear freak or anything, but I'm looking for something with a little more length than my 7'6" Celilo and couldn't figure out the difference between the two Okumas. Thanks CoffeeMonster!! 👍🏿

[@matthewgannon6280]

Great video Im going to go fishing in a trout stocked reservoir and I was wondering if you could make a video showing how to get more fish in a stocked reservoir

[@andrewcahill5621]

Should have made Marlin do the bead tutorial since he hates em

[@AddictedFishing]

😂

[@kennydaiker1980]

Beed fishing is pretty much the same as corky fishing in all reality

[@chrisclearman5244]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@DiamondModderHD]

Just don’t float as much

[@LetsFish21]

No bud

[@OntheHook55]

How do you fish a corky under a float?

[@kennydaiker1980]

@@OntheHook55 same way u do a beed,put a stopper on the corky so it does not slide up and down the line,same with okie drifters,that resemble an egg cluster,I also drift fish with both,corky and beads,just something different to have in your tackle box

[@jon7945]

Would this still be a recommended setup in Oregon with a leader length limit of 36 inches?

[@brianjohnston4207]

I've seen other guys using 20lb 3' leaders with 1/0 hooks in dirtier water but you could go lighter and smaller in different water. I'd be worried that they get spooked by the lead in clear water.

[@IMKINDOFABIGDEAL13]

I just can’t Stand running a bumper line with any type of sliding float setup. I’m sure it’s great and all but if you end up needing your bobber stop a little deeper and you get to that blood knot you’re screwed and gotta re rig. And then fishing a shallow hole you end up with a ton of fluorocarbon above your float pulling you down current.

[@Nobodybaby78]

Huge question, lol , I know u guys are okuma guys. But what baitcaster u guys suggest for float fishing

[@tomas9666]

I got a curado 301hg and love it so far for drift fishing

[@jeffs7773]

After much practice I’ve become one of the premier bead fisherman in the pnw

And can you bead fish for trout

First

[@ChrisWhite.fishing]

So what is the bead: a piece of orange plastic? No scent? Nothing?

[@un5ub374]

what happen to your hand

[@jamesy1979]

1:50 you have WAY too much line on that spool bud

[@paulmoore9679]

1 mil is 1/1000 of an inch. A millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter.

[@Beadfishing]

[@northcascadian7065]

Okuma made in Taiwan? What about the US companies

[@michaelniemi5238]

Look at that steelhead green water so fishy

[@chadgrant8870]

60+ lb test for a fish that's tops 20 lbs ... seems excessive

[@AddictedFishing]

We’re not using that heavy because of the size of fish. It’s for floatation, mending, wind knots etc. The heavy braid excels for float fishing.

[@ChadNoticer]

tfw you know you'll never catch a trophy Steelie 😢 why even live bros?

[@discodick6058]

All i had to do was drop a comment about Jordan makin babies and he reappeared...the magic of fishing is real. Missed you man
