[@crestonlaager3216]

Very nice job gentlemen. I was a little surprised when one of you guys whacked the fish, not that I think there's anything wrong with that, you just don't see much of that lately, taking fish, I mean, but it's your river and you know it best I'm sure. I was also a little surprised by your float rigs too, the centrepin most particularly. Where I fish in the Great Lakes tribs, there's a real prejudice against using such heavy line and muscling fish, though I often wish I could because it would probably result in more fish surviving release. . .though, admittedly, I've never tried beefing up the gear, simply because I don't know how successful I'd be otherwise. Anyway, nice job fellas.

[@KimchiJerry]

The quality of this video is just uncanny 🔥 👏 incredible fishing!!! And the rod shot at 0:53 is sick!! What type of rod is that?!

[@ElevatedFishing]

Thank you. Its a custom CTS rod and EBA reel. 👍

[@micahaudiss1214]

Awesome video! I am not sure if you guys are in Oregon but if you are it definitely looks like the same river I used to fish while going to OSU! I have never ran a boat that high above the confluence, but I was just curious if you put in on the North Fork? Or the south fork? Thanks for the watch!

[@crazypaul3997]

Looks like the guy with the center pin is using a bobber doggying setup but is using the 3-way swivel just to help him get his presentation down just like standard bobber/float fishing......or he's bobber dogging. Back in the day i use to use hollow core pencil lead but then I just switched to a three-way snap swivel and put the pencil lead on the snap swivel. Its just a little easier.

[@AddictedFishing]

Awesome edit guys!

[@denhampatricelli3515]

Hows your hook-to-land ratio using beads? Those fish put up a really great fight and still stayed pinned. If I had a fish do that to me I'd have probably lost him!

[@bennosal6268]

I recognize both of those reels a baitcaster and a spin reel whats the third one being used never saw it before?

[@marcanderson5271]

Your video makes me sad that it April. I want to catch winter steelhead. Sure would like a hint on the name of best coastal rivers. I've only tried the rivers in the southern Willamette Valley

[@ElevatedFishing]

Siletz, siuslaw, alsea are all good winter steelhead fisheries. 👍

[@tiredredneck8159]

Bravo lads!Bravo!

[@hooks4nooks]

Elevated hey... Awesome Steelheading. So are you dead drifting those beads or dragging them? Looks like dead drift, like you would fish a jig. So you're not bobber dogging where you're dragging your lead or touching the bottom? I'm just starting bead fishing and I've seen both and could use some help. Thanks.

[@ElevatedFishing]

No. Mostly dead drift or regular float fishing. We might drag through the shallow top end of a hole and the tail out but for the most part a nice drag free drift. 👍

[@hooks4nooks]

@@ElevatedFishing oh ok, right on. Very cool. And it doesn't look like you run any split shot between your main weight and bead. Or double leader set up. You got it down, I've watched a few of your videos. You definitely have the presentation down. I think one of my problems is I'm dragging too much and should try a dead drift presentation more. Big rivers like the Cowlitz this time of year I thought the bobber dogging (dragging) method was what guys are doing but maybe I'm over doing it. Thanks for your help. Great vids. I'll check out your products too. Peace, ✌️

[@ElevatedFishing]

@@hooks4nooks I do know guys who bobber dog the Cowlitz and do well. Both work but having the single weight and no split shot will help keep stuff on the bottom.

[@Sailor_Jerry]

Quality content, guys. Awesome fish and footage. New sub. p.s. buy a net. 😂

[@fishonjon541b2]

If you can't bank a fish you're not a fisherman. No nets needed !

[@No_NetMan]

@@fishonjon541b2 if you want to sustain the fishery you practice catch and release. Then it's all keeping the fish as healthy as possible which a net helps with!

[@No_NetMan]

@FishonJon541 Fuck Trimming lol if you do it with hatchery fish I have a hard time believing you don't do it with wild. If you do treat wild fish with respect props to you, and I apologize for the comment. I would like to say though that it's not your fishery it's everyone's. Everyone needs this mentality. I fish the salmon river in NY so I guess I'm just scarred from seeing how mistreated the fish are there.

Yes! 😁 one of the most effective techniques.

Cool video, did you guys forget the net? Lol

[@ZSIY]

So are you guys regular float fishing with those beadmasters floats by hawken or bobber dogging them I’m confused... I see you guys are running tangle free weights to.

[@ElevatedFishing]

Regular float fishing with hawken AF5 floats. We drag the bottom a little but for the most part we are regular float fishing. 👍

[@ZSIY]

Elevated Fishing what size hooks do you guys run typically on double bead set ups? Also do T-Stops work on your guys beads??

[@ElevatedFishing]

@@ZSIY We use size 2 gami light wire for our 10mm and 12mm beads. For 14mm and 16mm beads we use size 1 gami light wire hooks. For low clear water we would run size 4 gami light wire hooks with 8mm or 10mm beads.

guys what line are you using on your pins?

Great job gentlemen. #StayHookdMyFriends & #TightLines

[@tiredredneck8159]

Myselif i would have milked them hens for their row , then clubed and bled them. Saves scraping skein later on.

We make sure to bleed the fish out really well so when we get home the eggs are blood free and we can cure them up.

[@jamescummings2493]

Throwing an egg to steelhead? 😞 maybe a little more respect for these amazing fish

[@williamcooke6056]

Beads...not eggs. Pegged beads. It is a big time method nowadays. Might be the best way to to catch steelhead, and pegging them virtually ensures these amazing fish are not hooked deeply. You must not have fished steelhead recently or you would have been able to identify this super popular method instantly. Some of the guys in this video make the best beads on the market today. Check out Steelhead Stalkers UV Soft beads. They also make UV plastic steelhead worms and UV yarnballs, and scent. I have tried every bead available and Steelhead Stalkers are in my humble opinion the best beads you can get. I don't know these guys, never met em, and don't get a discount for saying this. But I thank them right now for making a kick ass product that I have used to hook a lot of steelhead with. So I digress...they are not "eggs".
