Great video! Makes me miss spring time!!

[@fiveweightoutdoors]

@@troutstrike Me too! This warm weather has been tough.

Awesome looking water. I fish mops very frequently and almost always catch a lot of fish. Im kind of spoiled by them honestly.

[@fiveweightoutdoors]

@@westernsoutherner1 love it. Do you tie your own?

[@westernsoutherner1]

@@fiveweightoutdoors Always. As a matter of fact I need to whip up a few more for this fall. I usually fish heavy beads and adjust depth myself. Almost always light brown these days and rarely any other colors. Good Luck!

[@fiveweightoutdoors]

@@stevemiller2470 thanks man! Haven't heard that one before, lol.

I fished the Jefferson river below Whitehall in mid April with bullheads right after the ice out in spring came down the river.

[@fiveweightoutdoors]

@@rogerdudra178 that's awesome! I've never been down that way before.

[@rogerdudra178]

@@fiveweightoutdoors When ice out happens, the sculpins that hide under the rocks in the shallows so often get killed by the ice and drift downstream to the brown trout, a good time to catch a really big one.

[@lastcoyote2355]

How about releasing the fish first and quickly before you start talking ….GEEZZZ!

[@holyworrier]

I don’t want to catch fish that bad.

Sad to hear fishermen use the F word to describe such beautiful creatures.
