Little Juniata River - TROPHY Wild Brown Trout

Wild Brown Trout fishing on one of Pennsylvania's finest river's, the Little Juniata River (Little J). My first time fishing the Little J yielded some excellent and large Wild Brown Trout. Fishing an 2 or so mile stretch which was only accessible by the Mid-State Trail, I was able to catch 4 Wild Brown Trout over the course of a few hours up to 16+ inches. So many amazing wild/native trout opportunities in PA, you just have to do some exploring. Verrrry Nicccce. Apologies for poor fish handling skills on this one.

Christ man. Before turning on the camera it'd be a lot better to build a skillset first. Unless, of course, your objective is to display exactly what NOT to do when handling wild trout.

Caught the trout at 5:20 and released back into the water at 6:40? jfc dude treat those wild browns with some respect! I hate to be a d*** but like for real dude that is terrible fish handling

Weah bud, you need to watch some KZbin channels or something that teaches you how properly handle and release any fish you plan on releasing, especially wild trout. Not letting them just hang, unsupported, in the air would be a start. Seriously, respect these fish.

I grew up fifteen minutes from there and its pronounced how it reads lol, not sure if you were being sarcastic and Im not trying to be an ass, just a fun fact lol

Kill the trout?? Good golly Molly. You are gonna kill them. Wild Browns need gentle handling. Release righ away.

You have got to be kidding me. Sad handling.
