How to Fish for Trout in a River/Creek by 1Rod1ReelFishing

[@technoendo]

So dense with information. Fantastic sir.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+technoendo I appreciate the feedback, thanks for watching!

[@CalloftheWildOfficial]

I agree!

[@Sentientcrabpee]

Very clear instructions! Thank you! Turns out my bait was right; I just wasn't picking great spots, so I appreciate that you included how to find a good spot.

[@NorthwestAnglers]

Awesome video! another cool one is the classic curly tail grub. using a curly tail grub will work really good in the faster waters. I really love your videos!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Northwest Anglers thanks for the tip, and I apprciate the support!

[@tfergfishing9172]

for stocked rainbows my #1 rig is a size 10 mustad hook with corn and a chameleon line leader. all you need right there. then for native browns/brooks I like using rapalas and spinners.

[@blakhorizon915]

This actually works really well! I went to the same spot I've fished 3 or 4 times before with no luck and I caught 3 trout and 2 sunnies in an hour and a half! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@cashrex4326]

i know it is pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good place to stream newly released tv shows online?

[@jerrybenjamin6168]

@Cash Rex Flixportal =)

[@cashrex4326]

@Jerry Benjamin thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service =) Appreciate it!!

[@jerrybenjamin6168]

@Cash Rex Glad I could help =)

[@blackrainboots]

I live on a river and have never trout fished before so thank you for all the useful information!

[@DrewOnTwo304]

This guy got me my first rainbow trout. Thank you sir!

[@acco5038]

This is by far my favorite channel on KZbin keep up the good work bro!

[@BenDonahower]

i'm just picking this stuff up... haven't fished in 20 years. this is super helpful.

[@TheOutdoorCatch]

light spinning gear is the way to go

[@2TEN90]

+Jake Radcliff I would also say trout magnets are also extremely effective in clear water. Just switching up the colors usually allows me to stay at a hole for a while.

[@Jarfiller]

I always loved fly fishing

[@seabee87]

Jake Radcliff blue fox vibrax in silver size 0 is my go to. Last year opening day everybody was using trout magnets and powerbait and barely getting hits. I switched from my garlic chartreuse powerboat to the blue fox and limited out in about 20 minutes.

[@CalloftheWildOfficial]

Absolutely, I'm a new to fishing but spinners have helped me catch a few.

[@coltonhawkins1853]

I trout fish a lot in Missouri. Mainly fly fishing but when I do bring my ultralight out I'll use marabou jigs and the Berkley power worms.

[@jayfusilier2348]

Idk how u don't have like millions of subscribers Bc ur amazing

[@raygunz488]

Velveeta cheese works great to. I fish it at gunpowder a lot. Kudos to you for being able to throw those light lures as well as you do on that set up. A 6FT OR 6' 6" light action with a spinning reel makes it a lot fun.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Jj Rayguns i heard that cheese works too! do u think its the color or flavor?

[@raygunz488]

I think the color ha something to do with it, but we did a little test where a friend used yellow power bait and I used cheese. I caught 7 fish to his 3. Ever since that day I always use velveeta cheese. Give I a try sometime

[@gregstamatopoulos7973]

You really inspired me to fish more I started watching your videos since you started and now I love fishing!

[@2TEN90]

Awesome video! As a relatively new fisherman and just really loving the trout fishing here in MD, this was a great learning video. I have only used the trout magnets and switching colors. I will have to look into using some of the lures you suggested here. Wish they would stock Daniels or Avalon one more time! :-)

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Todd Carrick thanks for watching, and they'll be stocking it again in the spring!

[@professionalidiot1698]

I live in MI and trying to fish the Manistee River for my first trout which is why I’m watching

[@saintmarcus5797]

best fishing channel on youtube, really interacts with his viewers!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Marcus Rodriguez thanks bro! :D

[@saintmarcus5797]

+1Rod1ReelFishing no problem keep up the amazing vids!

[@kccaekaert1232]

Mike ,you try a Cabellas cheese worm ,take one and break it in half put it on a hook like you would any other artificial plastic ,but put it on just a hook and put a small shot sinker on about 18 inches ahead of the worm then fish away,you can even pull them out of the fast currents just casting and retrieving at a medium pace.My favorite of the many colors is the transparent florecent orange color, fishing with it in streams in several states ,I have caught like a days limit of 6 on just 7 casts.Give it a try you wont be sorry you did.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Kc Caekaert thanks for the tip I'll give it a shot!

[@GT_Racer347]

That's how we noodle a rainbow trout... Love it! Mad skills. 😁👌

[@Dutch9604]

Power bait is for stocked fish But I do wonder what weight is his line is it 8lb or more or less?

[@gwuapjit3772]

everyone but flair is fishing for trout in the googan squad

[@julianpayne4292]

You don't know how long I've been waiting !!😁😁😁

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Julian Payne haha thanks for waiting, hope u liked it!

[@jonfisher5946]

Awesome Video 1Rod1Reel!!!! I love the creek/river fishing videos, and Great tips!

[@Exploremorefishing]

I'd love to see a how to video on reading water for bass , where to look for them, what bait to use, go into a little more detail on your approach ...do you start with top water or bottom lures ect....I'm sure it will help a lot of us

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+ufounddiesel74 will cover that in the future!

[@Drgordan1231]

i'm just gonna put out my experience with this, So far. I've noticed that bass LOVE to gather around things that are different from the rest of the water, like pipes. rocks, trees. branches in the water. etc, that are along the coast. They tend to stay around the coast from 8am to 6pm here in CO. Mostly around 12-2 though. I always, ALWAYS. Start with just a normal nightcrawler, by itself. I do put some air in it though, so it floats a little bit. you can also just use a bobber. If that doesn't work out, I try top water baits. And if I don't see bass on the shoreline, I just go out to an interesting part of the middle of the lake/pond. I noticed that if you follow where they pop up, and generally stay around a depth of 15-20 feet. You'll catch them, though they tend to just stay top-water most the time. So try 5 feet deep, with live bait & a bobber. Works well, Just my noobish experience so far, :)

[@bassallday4351]

Great Video once again. Never fail to Impress your fans and viewers

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Bass All Day thanks for watching bro, I appreciate the support!

[@alexnulter8452]

It's awesome to see that you try to do your best with ever video

[@Yusofuanny]

Yes! I've been waiting for a vid all week😁

[@hitstick567]

Good video I needed these tips because I'm about to start trout fishing here in Atlanta

[@shihrotakama431]

Yeah same here, I'm in Texas and am going to fish the Guadalupe River this winter, this really helped. Tight lines!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+hitstick567 thanks for watching, gl catching your first trout!

[@jaredhernon1925]

Sweet vid. Short and to the point 👍👍👍👍

[@williamknicely744]

Been watching your videos for a while now! Great fisherman! Only tip for you would be to get a dedicated rod for that as well as smaller tackle. Joe Flies are a great recommendation as well as a smaller sized hook. I find that a sized 6 is way to big for trout here in the mountains. I usually fly fish but I have multiple ultra lite poles as well. And as far as the catch and release mashing a hook and using a rubber net are both GREAT ways to ensure survival of even small native brookies!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+William Knicely great info here, especially the rubber net, that's the best way to land trout to keep them safe!

[@fishingwithmakarony7]

How beauty it is! That fish! That view! I wish I could be there! ....cheers from Poland!:)

[@dinopulgarin2530]

I haven't fished for a bit thanks gets me motivated to get some hits !!

[@TheADDFiles-yk4dc]

Love your videos. Please consider switching out those trebles for single siwash hooks. And pinch down the barb for easy release. You will actually hook and land more fish going barbless.

[@kohltonclark22]

Pete W really? why, can you explain.

[@kohltonclark22]

how barbless single hooks catch more fish.

[@drewnorgaard6424]

I trout fish a lot when u throw the power bait put a egg sinker on then a snap swivel with a leiter to your hook

[@johnnieboys2949]

If ur powerbait keeps falling of ur single hook try a small trouble hook. I've learned the smaller hook the more chance u have to catch more fish same is true with inline spinners the smaller the better.

[@johnnieboys2949]

just letting u know but great tips anyway

[@ItsHDFrostyv2]

Spinners are a great bait for some people, but for me whenever I use them in my pond, I go to a shallow cove and I literally catch 3-5 inch large mouth bass and white perch. I always let them go but they could be used for bait I guess.

[@sampson583]

good job mike. awesome vids always. your for sure one of the best fishing youtubers out there. also glad u joined the live chat with flukemaster.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+sampson583 it was a ton of fun! I'll be doing more chats and hoping fishing with him sometime in the future :D

[@BassFishingProductions]

Nice vid man!! keep it up

[@PlayerrTw0]

You should try salmon eggs. Being from Colorado of course all I do is normally catch trout and that's always been my go to bait. You can get them anywhere you get your powerbait!

[@johnchapman1663]

Good stuff man. Much appreciation

[@joeburton21]

Always putting in work! Allot of good tips, keep up the good work!

[@just0bram811]

Nice video, in the Netherlands we give the powerbait a little twist So it works Just like a spinner

[@ColtonGee25]

Garlic powerbait also works really well for me on the trout in the midwest

[@nathanm8888]

For dough bait use a size18 treble

[@thewhisperingvipergaming7581]

Love trout fishing

[@robertwhalen7777]

I love how you teach us stuff in your vids

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Robert Whalen thanks bro, I appreciate the feedback!

[@weqrfawe1336]

best video you have ever made

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+weqrfawe glad u liked it!

[@offthebanks168]

keep it up bud your doing great

[@TDSKryptic]

actually, you make great points and I'm s trout angler myself. I love trout. But one tradition I use when I use power bait is an ultralight rod and I use the same method (split shot weight and 6 Oz hook) but what I found that catches the most trout is sprinkling dirt on the power bait. and you have to let them play with it until you set the hook.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Oseirs And Dewy interesting idea with the dirt, is there any reason for putting it on the power bait? to make it look more natural perhaps?

[@TDSKryptic]

No. Actually your on the right track, but I put dirt on my power bait cuz it makes a better sent. It also keeps it from sticking to unwanted surfaces

[@EvolvinEvo]

I wanna try one of those damiki vaults! for trout I like carolina rig for power bait (slip sinker cause trout can detect weight), they are also line shy so i go with a 4-6lb flourocarbon leader with small treble (holds dough better), also try berkley mice tails they work great! rooster tails and blue fox spinners have also been good

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+EvolvinEvo good advice with the slip sinker! I missed quite a few bites on the powerbait bc the trout felt the split shot

[@rudolph8221]

Thanks man your vids are what I need and awesome 😎 tips and tricks

[@jaket459]

what works great where i live is getting a tiny hook, put a salmon egg on there and just let it float dow stream.

[@billmers3219]

enjoyed watching it!!

[@AnabolicAsylum]

Try a small bullet weight with a swivel underneath it instead of a split shot.

[@anaveragespork8486]

I usually fish the exact same setup as you with power bait, but I switched from size 6 hooks to size 4. I seem to gut hook them less with size 4.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+An Average Spork good thinking with the slightly bigger hook!

[@TimKollat]

5 PETA members must have watched this video..why else would anyone down vote these kinds of vids?

[@LoganPauldidnothingwrong]

mojo jojo

[@MrJcrandall7]

Come to Ontario and get some monster great Lake rainbows! Nothing like float fishing for migratory fish.

[@KimchiJerry]

Great video 👍 I just started trout fishing and it’s fun! Never tried it on a river but definitely gonna try it.

[@cameronbrock1014]

Sweet video! Good job trying to handle those trout correctly.

[@s1lver227]

thank you for this video it helped me out with starting to fish where ive never n fished before

[@adrianabarca4432]

Great informative video! I feel like I learned a lot. Thanks for taking the time to make it.

[@1timefishing807]

Thanks man this really helped me because it's really hard for me to catch trout, hopefully it will get me some more!

[@Grothok]

Try a white maribu jig, the kind with the feather skirt and if your lucky enough to find them the skirt will have 3 or 4 strands of silver tinsel in it. You can tip it with spikes if you like, I run it plain. I fish with almost nothing else for trout and 99% of the time out produce egg sack, powerbait, spoon, and spinner fisherman. I will change color if the water condition calls for it but I never stray from white if I can, brown and black are far second. Go on and irritate some anglers with this as you slide into a pocket after they missed all those fish you are going to catch on the jig :) Good lucky buddy.

[@Grothok]

+Grothok Shmothok And the best part I forgot to mention is I can buy a whole card of them, 13-15 jigs for less than $3.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Grothok Shmothok thanks for the tips! I'll def try em out in the spring!

[@lablakelydress1988]

That's a beautiful spot where you're fishing!

[@ignusboshoff3944]

Love your videos bra..!!

[@sambrady]

Try a dragon lonng body silver spinner size 3 they work great for anything from quarter a pound to a 5 pounds brown trout great for wild brownies and stoked ones great vid by the way nice little river

[@bigbwah1747]

Awesome vid as always Mike! Hope you come up to piney run!!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+BigBwah damn almost forgot lol, I still need to do that they still rent boats this time of year?

[@bigbwah1747]

+1Rod1ReelFishing I'm not really sure since I always bank fish there. The bank fishing is awesome there anyway!

[@Allnutts_fishing]

+1Rod1ReelFishing i have a bass boat and go out to piney run all the time u should come with me some time

[@griffinfedora6034]

Daniels dam😂 daaaaammm Daniel

[@JuanCruz-ef9eg]

when are you posting the vid about the lake you fished today?

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Juan Cruz saturday!

[@TSGProDigy]

You should try fly fishing it's a blast and can be very challenging . Using a dry fly or a nymph it's my personal favorite. Anyway love the video.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Matchstick Moto i plan to try fly fishing in the future!

[@somdfishing4652]

Great video and solid advice.

[@marshall6589]

awesome video love the 60fps and skills!

[@gregsrun34]

Hi, where would you find bass in the uk Suffolk or aren't they here

[@lifeOfBarneyMusic]

Awesome video. What I am missing is how you weren't snagging on all the rocks!?!? That is my biggest issue in this kind of water in SW Ontario rivers

[@frosty_beasty1556]

Thanks great tips Just went trout fishing

[@daneh6240]

Powerbait 3" floating worm, size 14 hook on a 12-16" leader with a small bass weight. Toss it out there, and you win every time.

[@JonSnow-vy1ds]

Thank you! I go to WV every summer (live in FL). This year i went river fishing and caught nothing. Hopefully i'll get some of those lures and catch some trout next year.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+LiftedSquare13 try out my tips and good luck!

[@chadhitt9021]

In wv you need the gulp minnow

[@gabby0138]

Good tips and good rainbow

[@adrianramirez7518]

they stock our ponds with rainbow trout mid November I already bought all my stuff usually sells out

[@itzmason03]

you should come fish at the california delta there are hawgs here and there and my uncle caught a 6 pounder there on an ish fat frog it was awesome

[@jackdorazio_6073]

I usually fish for bass and I have 12lb line on my rod. Will that work for trout fishing?

[@TFFOutdoors]

come to ontario for the spring trout run

[@johnpadilla4054]

Thanks bro. I'm taking what I learned out tomorrow

[@isaiahburns6178]

Have you ever fished in Castville Missouri in roaring river

[@chewybear1528]

I love trout fishing and freshwater in general but saltwater is by far my favorite, the fish are much much stringer

[@chewybear1528]

Stronger*

[@EmpireofBlack]

You should do a rod and reel arsenal!!!!!

[@dannywheeler6771]

hey bro I got a chatter bait and a t10 jumpin minnow could u do a review on those lures?

[@cunderwood2349]

Been watching your snapchat story and i am so ready to watch this one

[@cwcoutdoors8623]

thanks for the great tips 1rod1reel

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+CWCBASSIN np bro, thanks for watching!

[@loganshumate9453]

I love that bionic blade pole .... mines perfect

[@patricktapia3354]

Note: if you're fishing a stock pond, I usually stick with dough baits and don't really use live bait imitations (they sometimes work though)because fish are fed pellets in hatcheries. 1rod1reel is fishing naturally bred fish.👍

[@bassackwards8422]

Actually, most rainbows in Maryland are stocked.

[@cxeng4k376]

Great video! Enjoyed the yips thanks.

[@adampierce3771]

What kind of rod and reel do you have? Looks like it casts like a dream and is a little stiff. I'm new to fishing and just have a ugly stick right now.

[@shihrotakama431]

I have heard Kastmasters work quite well on trout, what do you think? That's kinda my go-to lure when I have no idea what's in the water since basically anything will go after it

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Shihro Takama kastmasters catch everything, and yeah they work great for trout!

[@shihrotakama431]

+1Rod1ReelFishing Good to know! I've sworn allegiance to the kastmaster ever since I caught twenty 15+ inch bass on one when the bass were storming the shad and minnow. Think of the mullet run but with largemouth bass!

[@JoshuaLinville]

U r an amazing fisherman who inspires me a lot every vid!!! I wanna catch hawgs like u do. Any tips to casting hit far on bait caster without getting a huge back lash

[@shihrotakama431]

I'm no 1rod1reel but I just recently learned how to use a baitcaster and people will tell you that you can't buy a good baitcaster for less then $80-100 dollars and I find that quite the opposite since my $40 Abu Garcia black max reel is really nice and if you don't have a really nice baitcaster yet I would recommend that one. If you want to cast it properly first set the magnetic brakes and spool tension properly (watch 1rod1reel's vid on using a baitcaster) and make sure you aren't using super light tackle (for now try casting with 3/8 oz lures). And make sure to not do overhead casts when starting out, do a roll cast kind of at a diagonal. Now when you go to cast with those things all good, you should be able to throw it out really far without the thing backlashing hard, but When the lure hits the water just make sure you put your thumb on the spool softly, just enough to slow it down. Good luck mate!

[@JoshuaLinville]

+Shihro Takama yeah I got a Abu Garcia just struggling on casting

[@shihrotakama431]

+Joshua Linville Cool yeah just get the settings right, that was a real life saver. Also I started casting the way he does (a diagonal roll cast) and I don't know how I fished without it! If you have a body of water near you just get out there and start with a little cast, once you have the little tiny cast down take it out a little further and further until you can get a full cast

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Joshua Linville thanks for watching bro! have u checked out my how-to baitcaster vid yet?

[@trooper2221]

and the reason for wetting hands first before touching trout??

[@williamparard3756]

try grinding off the barbs on those treble hooks. most of those lures would work great with single hooks instead of trebles . I stopped using anything with treble hooks while targeting trout .

[@austinslawinski9495]

How come you used a medium rod but recommend a light/med-light rod?

[@amandag5184]

Do you use a float? (I haven't fished since I was a kid)

[@listenmyfriendfranklin6325]

Nice work, very informative. New sub 👍

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

Thx for subbing 👍🎣
