NIAGARA River STEELHEAD - December 6,2009

took mike down for his first trip to the gorge-water wasn't ideal (murky) but we were able to hook up with at least a dozen fish but only landed 7.could have been better - not the best place to fish in wny if your looking for numbers - challenging place to fish to say the least .lost another big fish today.

that river is so fun to fish try the wirlpool next time great vid keep them up

[@scomyo3]

that was cool almost like fishing the nipigon river if i hook 10 fish i might land 3 when i fish there but i keep coming back 5*s

[@TheEliteFisherMan]

oh ok, slip bobbers are much easier for sure, but do they make them in like clear floats for trout and sutfF?

[@croot10]

Yea I usually use 10 lb Stren Magnathin, Ive actually had a few fish take me down to the knot and take off before I could even move my feet! Those Niagara Steelies are mean!

[@3xut]

You guys have a great site .You do a professional job for sure . Always like what you do. Gr8 stuff guys.

[@randomclam8ownz]

i've seen people play out northern pike on 8lb for 30-40 minutes and land them, i lose them on 12 lb, usually snap their head and the line with it

[@wikiwikiwias000]

you should try the whirlpool

[@TheEliteFisherMan]

oh ok, smartt, but how would you cast lets say 10 feet of line from the tip or your rod? wouldnt that be kinda hard?

[@h3wg0]

I fished the St joe all my life here in MI. Pretty big river though.. and every time I had a fish on it would fight hard to the point where I had to start using 8 lb test line. Recently I moved up north of MI and steelhead fish in a smaller stream and fish there don't fight that hard. BIG fish. So I know what ya meant when you mentioned that fish in there (Niagara) fought hard. Good fishing.

[@TheEliteFisherMan]

hey man, howd. u know how deep the water was to fish the float?

[@TheSnakeGuy1]

Great video man! me and my uncle were gonna go there yesterday too!! but instead we went to a place called port dalhousie in st. cathrines. we got 1 nice 19 inch brown. it was a female, so i got the eggs and kept it. i only keep a couple a year. and that was my first this year. so now im set for a couple weeks with some brown trout eggs :D 5 star!!!

[@Goober6669]

[@cjacustomwoodworking]

Awesome. When my guy is a little older, we'll head over there. Haven't fished there in years. How far from your jig was the float?

[@HATINTHEKAT]
