Boatless Angling for Steelhead

[@MadeInOntario]

great video! do you ever use float rods ?

[@CookingwiththeCoias]

....I did years ago but not lately

[@fred1sana]

Great video Ivo, Thank you

[@CraigArndt]

Two delicious eater steelies. Love drifting through there, can hammer steelhead in the spring too. None of that happening with this cold weather and looks like the lake is locking up! Stay warm Evo!

[@KZtheFisherOutdoors]

Absolutely love it very nice video Thanks for sharing 😉👍🎣🎣🎣

[@Less1leg2]

Bravo including LOCATION, it really helps outsiders know a place and perhaps they can include your location to a future trip.

[@Jfldhr]

Less1leg Pirate I wish Ivo can include the time of video as well

Hi IVO - - - Nice couple of steel head's - looks and sounds like you have to struggle with a lot of hugs rocks there - but it's worth it as long as your having fun fishing right -

[@thundermistlures]

right :) :) :)

[@KPSoutside]

Are there any species of fish in the Niagara River that you haven't caught that you would like to catch? The Niagara seems to hold an abundance of different fish species so I thought I would ask.

[@thundermistlures]

...the only fish down there that I have not caught yet are sturgeon, but they are protected so I do not target them :)

[@FishingTheOdds]

man nice video and beatiful Chrome!! out here in oregon its hard to come by chrome sometimes. tight lines

[@Sthestarfish]

Take your garbage with you. Instead of throwing the first broken plastic roe mesh bag into the water take it with you. Try to keep plastic out of our water bodies. Thanks for the video.

[@steelhead6313]

C'mon Ivo, we know your better than that. Especially those little styrofoam you placed in there to make the sack float. But I'm sure you picked it up after your shooting.... Great video as always tho....

[@utuber2940]

Rommel D'souza exactly wtf!!!!

[@thundermistlures]

...totally agree and I usually do, but was just too excited and by the time I realized, it, it was gone in the current.....wish I could take that back....as a side note though, every time I go shore fishing, I typically bring a bag & pick up any garbage left by others...especially at Port D. Thanks for your feedback and for being a conscientious angler

[@M40A5]

Wish we had steelhead here, or even just decent fishing. Lots of people that like to fish here, and not a lot of good water. But nice fish! Hopefully some day I'll get out for steelhead!

[@M40A5]

@Dab Tsov I would like to, but being a divorced Father I am too familiar with the inequities in child support rates.

[@bobcrappies]

That’s my bait can I have back!!!!! Lol

[@billwalker4836]

That's some good earn Tight lines

[@futureyou6496]

One of the rigs could be mine! Because I snagged alot right there. Nice chrome Ivo!

[@Glennridge1]

What size sinker are you using? What size pencil sinker would you recommend?

[@thundermistlures]

The current varies in this area - so start out with a 3/4 oz ounce sinker and then go heavier or lighter as conditions permit :)

[@fredstratton2841]

hi Ivo, nice steelheads. tried fishing that very spot but both boots leaked and ended up with cold feet. what make are your waders and where did you purchase them.

[@thundermistlures]

...I think it is Woods? Was a CDN Tire purchase :)

[@fredstratton2841]

@@thundermistlures they seem to offer both breathable and neoprene. Looksks like you got the breathable version. Do they keep you warm in that cold river water?

[@thundermistlures]

@@fredstratton2841 Hi Freed - yes they are the breathable style and I was layered up underneath in order to stay warm :)

[@thundermistlures]

*Fred* sorry for the typo :)

[@fredstratton2841]

@@thundermistlures thanks Ivo. I appreciate the info.

[@rahmanibahie2511]

what is the difference between 70% fiberglass 30% graphite fishing rod or 60% graphite 40% fiberglass, and what you recommend for a beginner catching medium fish? I welcome a response from anyone

[@thundermistlures]

The rod with more fiberglass will be stiffer and more sensitive (better bite detection), great for bottom bounce or jigging or live bait, whereas the one with more fiberglass, will be more limber, and is better for casting lures or trolling :)

[@rahmanibahie2511]

@@thundermistlures sorry you said more fiberglass twice ...... i think you mean more fiberglass limber, and more graphite stiffer? is griphite and carbon fiber is the same ?

[@thundermistlures]

@@rahmanibahie2511 ooops - yes...sorry about that typo - this is what I meant to say: The rod with more GRAPHITE will be stiffer and more sensitive (better bite detection), great for bottom bounce or jigging or live bait, whereas the one with more fiberglass, will be more limber, and is better for casting lures or trolling :) Carbon Fiber is a polymer, which is just a different strain of graphite

[@johnneigel4366]

Hey Ivo! What specification rod do you use for this shore bottom bouncing?

[@thundermistlures]

medium action John......

[@Jfldhr]

Is the season opened there ? Is this 2019 February?

[@thundermistlures]

Fishing in Ontario, steelhead season is open all year on the Niagara river :)

[@guitargeek1979]

What type of bottom? Rocky, sand or mud?

[@thundermistlures]

...mainly rock......

[@nathanjohnson3022]

You should get a body mic to get better audio. Great video

[@FotisCanada]

a hot shoe mic wwith a dead cat should work

[@nathanjohnson3022]

FotisCanada or a dead raccoon

[@FotisCanada]

Actually a dead cat is technicatl term for something that covers the mic to muffle or eliminate the wind noise :)

[@nathanjohnson3022]

FotisCanada a dead raccoon does the same thing though

[@adkbeau]

No tuque or ice ??? looks cold...

0 thumbs down 👇.. wow

[@chriscool1680]

:( now there's 4

[@greenbaby1902]

Lost loads of gear in this spot making me jelly, stop there for 3 days in a row and no luck

[@charvang]

Ivo, great video but I have to say you're blowing spots by mentioning locations.

[@charvang]

@@IcecyOutdoors dont be crying when that spot becomes over crowded

[@charvang]

Blowing spots for views isnt worth it to me. To each their own.

[@Dmoe4]

@char vang - agreed.
