Thanks Marlin for that video on reading water.very good info for beginner fisherman trying to target steelhead.i always enjoy the refresher courses and try to learn something that I may have either over looked or not have thought about.Thank you ADX🤘

[@AddictedFishing]

Glad to help, thanks for watching!!

[@TheRealDalco]

Love the videos w Lucas!! A great guy

[@lucasholmgrenmusic]

Appreciate it man!!!

[@Drewsfishingtrips]

Another really important skill for a beginner and expert alike for fish finding and wading safety.

[@dane.proctor13]

Good to see you Lucas. You should drop by the live feed!

[@lucasholmgrenmusic]

Thank you Dane!! I'll do that asap. Trying to get out fishing soon after all this snow washes away and the roads are good.

[@dane.proctor13]

@@lucasholmgrenmusic Same here. Need things to warm up a bit so I can cast more then once without my rod guides freezing up

[@rondeezy_thepancakeslayer1242]

Been waiting a long time for this one, would love to see more! Thanks ADX!

[@Cokeamo1]

[@jonstewart5828]

Thank you for making this video

[@davidblalack5015]

Awesome information! Thank you for that.

[@IMKINDOFABIGDEAL13]

Good video. Luke is great my name is also Luke. And rockin the old school white styrofoam bobber too. Those things are great for the slower water when you need some help from the surface water to move your presentation through the hole

[@lucasholmgrenmusic]

Dude exactly! Those floats actually present a jig or bait nicely vertical and they just go down. I've caught so many fish on those floats - if they work why not?

[@johnoleinik7376]

Love it!

[@hustonwitt9425]

Wow , thanks guys

[@tonyrudolph6908]

I live too fish for these creatures 😂 glad you guys gave out some pointers

[@lucidmarauder4388]

We need more of them "bill dance" bloopers

[@toddknutson6317]

Wonder how many are watching after the live feed tonight. Thanks ADX

[@dane.proctor13]

You knew you'd find me here

[@patpacheco3296]

Great video thanks af

[@souldiarrhea]

Can we get Lucas on the payoll? dude was well spoken and seemed like a good teacher.

[@JRFROMWBC]

I am sure I had some smart-ass comment to deliver about the tutorial. But, damn, that fish!

[@Goats22]

i noticed Marlin has his nippers on the pocket zipper on his chest. this drives me nuts about Simms waders, none of them have D rings! WHY?! almost all of the cheaper brands have started adding D rings to the chest clasps but Simms still hasn't. Makes trying to rig things to your chest annoying. Everyone should inundate Simms with messages about adding D rings to their waders.

[@TonyMontana-gb6pm]

My freestone Z’s have fabric eyelets on the chest to clip stuff to…

[@robertward854]

Great info you guys are awesome . Keep the info flowing and catch some hogs

[@edp1801]

Great video Marlin. 1 question, are you ever going to bring back the zip top backpack? Like the one Jordan has.

[@AddictedFishing]

It’s absolutely on our website now!

[@caseycarlson5174]

Marlin, do you find it best to start higher in the river system and work down the river or start low and work your way upriver

[@samrivers1815]

That was a hog of head! Keep it up y'all 👍

[@kalebsheridan9017]

Nothing is more important than reading water and finding the fish. This is what separates the 90% of anglers that don't catch anything, to the 10% of the anglers who catch almost all the fish. No amount of expensive tackle will catch you as many fish as knowing this information.

[@jamesjennings4900]

I have more ideas if you guys are interested.

[@dane.proctor13]

You catching em on the 2-5? Nevermind

[@lucasholmgrenmusic]

🤣😂😅

[@trevanherek6003]

hunting is the ticket.

[@Swingingspoons]

Get Lucas on more videos

[@catfishman9516]

You youngsters are hilarious

[@brusselsprouts6317]

Run n gun is great, unless it's a popular river on the weekend. Then what? Everywhere I go, someone is already there.

[@FishingwithPhillips]

I'm a great lakes fisherman, NY and salmon river and oswego river mainly and those are some of THE busiest places in the country you could steelhead fish. That's a major problem we have and unfortunately really dictates my approach on everything. Because of pressure we tend to have to go real light, commonly 8lb main with a 6 or even 4lb leader to get bites. Also a long rod with extra cushion for light leader but landing the fish can be harder. When it's busy, running and gunning isn't feasible so I'm often forced to really pick apart spots rendundently and do a lot more color or bait changing. Is very effective specially if your in a spot they routinely push through. I don't think that's as feasible in the pnw cuz at least in most great lakes scenarios we have so many fish stocked and smaller water that there's almost always something to catch, They just are extra finicky. If covering more water isn't an option I would say pick the most productive water you know a little bit, and get more technical on how you break the water down. Adjust the float more and really try to line yourself up to really get in those buckets and find rocks or current breaks that you might of missed just fishing the float at 1 general depth. If water is fast enough, I like to bottom bounce to really really pick every little nook apart.

[@lucasholmgrenmusic]

@@FishingwithPhillipsthat's very good info - if we are in a slot that fish are moving through we do the same, but in most cases only a few fish are in and they are holding in a few specific holes, you just gotta find em!

[@KeithFoster-re5xj]

Lmao, here before it gets taken down

[@AddictedFishing]

Why would it get taken down?

[@danm1319]

Huh?

[@amocat_13]

"6 inches, 6 inches, 6 inches" 😮

[@tbone6924]

Love the content guys...minus the horrific background "music".

[@brandonvaughn7288]

Where’s Jordan

[@xXpurplenurple007Xx]

Lucas is a lame NPC who don't know how to fish for steel. Replay footage lame af too.

[@AddictedFishing]

Cool, don’t watch then, thats the beauty of KZbin, no one is forcing you.

[@lucasholmgrenmusic]

😂😂Never been called an NPC before that's great.
