That two stroke sound brings back memories. I love my four stroke, but sometimes I just miss the two stroke smell in the mornings. Good video.

I learned more from this video than 25 others on trolling, thank you for sharing techniques.

[@timothy1450]

I love how he keeps looking at the tip of the pole. Takes me back with Dad and Grandpa's.

[@guyh.4553]

Nice video kid. But you have your lures backwards. Put the squid on the dodger and the spoon on the Jack-o-Loids. The dodger puts action to the squid. The spoon puts action onto your flashers. Also, add anpther rod base or two onto the boat. Youre missing fish because you don't see the rod go off until its too late. I hope that helps you

[@FishingTheOdds]

I 100% agree on the rod holders . I built the boat for bass hah and yes what your saying does make sense to maximize the action I'll remember that thanks for the tip!

[@syfyrytr1652]

The simplest showing of how to build the rig is what we want. Excellent. Lots of other vids are hero shots and they don't actually, SHOW us how to rig it. Thanks.

[@FishingTheOdds]

No problem man glad you liked it:)

Promontory has been one of my favorite lakes for 50- plus years. I've always done very well, but the last September was the B E S T of all time for myself and my buddy John H. It was the middle of the month, and was recently stocked. However the fish we caught were had been in the lake a long time. They were 12" to 14" we also caught some that were much smaller, but not many. Here is how it went, we both have (2) pole endorsements. We NEVER managed to get all 4 poles in. From " Small-Fry " to the END (If you know where I mean ) We landed close to ( 1 0 0 ) Yep ONE HUNDRED, in a four hour period. We had to turn off the motor and reel our poles in just to eat. It was C R A Z Y ! ! ! I finished with my biggest fish ever at NFR it was over (6) pounds and fought like a Steelhead. I followed that up with the next day bringing my girlfriends sister out, and let her reel in over 40 keepers and I hooked up another 25 and passed to her that she LOST... LOL... I've never done this good in all of the years. We were using a Arrow Flash and PURPLE / PINK hoochie with a TINY piece of worm, 12" leader and 1/4 OZ lead. We had so many TRIPLES that it was a shock if we didn't get a strike in 30 seconds or less. Many times we did let out TEN feet of line. Like I said it was C R A Z Y.... GREAT Video. I felt bad about killing that many fish... K I D D I N G ! ! ! All were R E L E A S E D, we done like to eat them... TON'S of FUN...

[@jeremyroberts4760]

Great trolling video, thanks for the solid explanations of your setup. We also call the minnow attracter "pop gear" out here in the West. I also like that you are on a simple aluminium boat with a basic trolling motor. This is how most of us fish! Well done!

[@timothywright1318]

Nice video! I put little fishing bells of the tips of the poles when I troll. That way I hear the action and I don’t have to keep my head on a swivel looking like a hawk all day.

[@JollyGreen79]

That little Sea Horse sure putts along nicely. It almost sounds like a little diesel lol! Wedding rings never do me wrong for trout. Green and orange is my most successful rig. I added a glow bead and snelled on a octopus trailer hook. It's a trout slayer!

[@larrywahilani5696]

Any help on how to set up the pole spread on the boat to maximize better fishing with less line tangles. I have 4 rod holders on the boat

[@FishingTheOdds]

Larry Wahilani longest rods on the side pointed straight out . 2 shorter rods in the back. Then more lead on your front rods less lead on your back rods

[@joeblow597]

Great advice on trolling, years ago we were trolling and not catching anything, using attractors and inline spinners, Celtas, my brother in law had some worms, he put a worm on the treble hook on his spinner, soon after caught a nice rainbow trout, we laughed at him. He then caught another, we all put worms on our spinners, 14 nice trout later we stopped for lunch.

[@FishingTheOdds]

That’s so awesome man haha! I got many stories like thst

[@vnburlakov9199]

[@frankovitchgrimowski4950]

We fished the North Fork opening day, kind of sad, out house was locked up so everyone had to crap in the woods! We learned that it had not been stocked yet. I really like the north fork, close to home. Some times I run up to Harriet res. I agree with others about your video, nice!

[@FishingTheOdds]

Wow that sucks I was out there today caught a couple but it didn't seem to have many fish in it they were supposed to of put 7000 in maybe all of the people shut the bite off because there was like 100 pleasure boaters

[@frankovitchgrimowski4950]

Fishing The Odds just got home from a 4 day trip over to Detroit Lake, kept 5 decent fish, my friend did about the same. One needs to get on the water early in the morning because around 11:am the wind brings up a chop and my little 12 foot tiny gets blown around hard. Sure is beautiful over there. I used some of your tips, thanks again for you vids.

Thanks brotha! Good luck and tight lines

[@ReelNinjafishing]

What state and body of water are you fishing in this video - if you don't mind me asking.... I'm going to Lake Berryessa in, CA. Doing a combo. I plan to start the day trolling for kokanee, and then finish the day crappie jigging. I'll be do video also. I have 2 GoFish Cams. I'm going to have to get my bait down some where between 35 - 50 feet is what I am hearing. I have plainer boards and 3, 4, and 5 oz torpedo weights. Gonna try both ways. Fingers crossed. See how it goes for my first try with out anyone guiding me. Just running off what I have learned from youtube and talking to a few people about it.

[@FishingTheOdds]

@@ReelNinjafishing that's alot of how I started is KZbin! Also north fork in estacada oregon

[@Jacey2001]

thanks bro. subbed

[@JamesChung2000]

Thanks for the great tips. How do you control the depth and how much line do you let out (trail behind the boat)? Cheers.

[@FishingTheOdds]

one thing you can do is pull from the reel to the first eyelit, that distance is about 1.5 feet. start with 20 feet ish and just work it deeper or shallower from there and see where you get bit

[@venturedout8074]

Hell yeah thank you man I am not far from Estacada

[@waynehemeon4135]

Good job with the video. I'm in NH, but fishing the east is really no different. Dare to try baits that are used to fish other areas.

[@BlackWarriorLures]

Yeah, I've been wanting to get back into trolling.

[@barryz1969]

Great video! Makes me miss Diamond Lake...gotta check out North Fork!

[@barryz1969]

Near Estacada? Clackamas River?

[@FishingTheOdds]

appreciate it man! Never Fished Diamond lake, wheres it located?

[@barryz1969]

Fishing The Odds Diamond lake is about 20 minutes from Crater lake. big lake with a big view. the food supply for rainbow trout is rich and the stockers gain about 1.5 inches per month. I hooked into a 21 inch, 5 pounder on the fourth of July this year there using a ford fender and a bead head olive woolly bugger. they have a fishing derby somewhere around June with a $1,000 purse for the winner.

[@barryz1969]

Fishing The Odds Average trout that you catch during the typical day is 16-18".

[@FishingTheOdds]

@@barryz1969 damn man!! I'm gonna get out there one of these days we got property in lapine bout an hour from crater lake . Used to go there all the time thanks for the info

[@darrellcray31]

loved how you were looking at your tip constantly while narrating, too many idiots with a fish on the line that dont realize it

[@dvolcom15]

Great video. I heard you say 6-8 lb test. What manufacturer and model line do you like?

[@FishingTheOdds]

seagur or P-line

[@vulcanez]

Try a snubber to help keep the fish on.

[@kayaktrapper5489]

Love the slider weight setup and how do you store your leaders lures

[@FishingTheOdds]

leader boards!

[@bradfarrahgerwing154]

Foam pipe covers....every 1.5 inches cut 1/3 deep with an exacto. Hook the lure and wrap into cut channel

[@cattaraugustonawanda4426]

How do you know how deep you are fishing ? Even a simple home made downrigger will allow you to fish at a known depth and combined with a cheap sonar you can actually target fish.

[@FishingTheOdds]

Agreed but stocked trout in a lake are like anywhere from 5 feet to 30 I'll let out a certain number of pulls each rod and find out where I'm catchin em

[@rayg3074]

good job

[@FishingTheOdds]

Thanks man!

[@ashtonswim4156]

What action are your rods

[@WheresTheSauce]

I've been thinking about trying this at a local lake I know. Problem is most of the time were fishing 8ft of water at the most. Think I can get these suckers to run shallow around 3ft under the surface?

[@FishingTheOdds]

Where'sTheSauce? Yes play around with small lead !

[@paulandresen8671]

[@djgmix916]

What size weights are you using.. If I want to get down 20-40 feet.. ect or is dipsy diver better.. anyways thanks for vid.. good stuff

[@FishingTheOdds]

Here I’m using 3/4 oz . If I wanna get down that far I’ll run 2 oz to 3 oz of lead around 100 feet on the line counter 🤙

[@TheBiggRiggz]

I'm curious where you're at. I live in Western Washington, the WDFG plants most of the fish caught on this side, they don't get very big. But i have caught upwards of 18 inches, 2+lbs which is the largest rainbow I've EVER seen in this area. I live for salmon season, which is just beginning. I've never used the "Dodger" like what you've got going on one line. I will use the trout or kokane trolling spoons with either a trout spoon or a wedding ring. (I SWEAR by the wedding ring and a certain type & color of trout spoon, but i just lost it last weekend with $15 in trolling spoons and other gear 😠) One other thing, do you use bait on your lures? I'll typically use a bright colored rubber power egg, like florescent orange or yellow, or standard red. Sometimes I'll even throw on a bright colored/natural colored rubber worm. Depends on the fish that day. My leader lengths are about the same as yours, 12 to 24 inches, again it depends on the fish that day. I'll give you a heads up tho, (trading info for info right?) I recently discovered these new eights. They're long like bullet weighs, but they've gotta split down the side with a piece of rubber in the middle. These are the best thing since sliced bread! You can add/remove with ease, simple twist of the rubber secures your line inside the weight and there's no weights clanking around, scaring the fish off. Big 5 has them for about $2 a pack here. Thanks for the video. I hope you're able to make enough off of these to get paid to fish. Every man's dream right? 🐟🐟 #FishOn 🐟🐟

[@FishingTheOdds]

I use cured corn for Kokanee . Primarily wedding rings for trout . Make sure I clean my dodgers with lemon joy before use kinda like salmon. This lake is in estacada Oregon and I do not use bait on my hooks for trout but I always catch my limit:) I feel it’s mostly reaction when trolling .

[@FishingTheOdds]

I used to fish those bullet weights . I have a ton of em! I use little canon balls usually but thanks for the info man!

[@number-1-Saxman]

About how deep does that set up go and how far do you let it go behind you

[@FishingTheOdds]

Bluemountainlion approx 10 or 12 feet . Quite a ways behind the boat so you don’t spook fish . 50 to 70 feet

[@robherold8516]

Great vid man! How far out?

[@FishingTheOdds]

I change my depth often . You can judge it by pulls from the reel to the first eyelit. 12 pulls is a good starting point fish several different depths
