The Government Put Fish In This Pond!

[@mossypalmer29]

Heres a good tip, use hooks that are twice as small as the hooks your using and fish close to the bank and corn works great, and power bait also only use 8 pound test at the most! I usually use 4 or 6 pound test. Also downgrade your in-line spinner to something way smaller then yours! But only use corn if you’re going to keep them! 🔥 Keep up the good work man! 🔥 good luck!

[@ashwinclendenin9671]

You want like 8-15 inches of line from the weight and make sure you use floating powerbait.

[@jonathanaceves6169]

And use monofilament and not floral you want that bait to float off the bottom use light hooks size 14 treble game on

Corn!? Yeah let me just… they can’t digest corn and they die shortly after eating

[@austinmacneil9947]

Trout specific fisherman here... 1. Use very light mono line (4-6lbs...trout have excellent eyesight) 2. Use much smaller hooks than that and keep more of the hook tip exposed (excellent eyesight) 3. Use a live worm under a small float and split shot to keep the float straight up and down. Dont let your bait sit on bottom, keep it maybe 2 or 3 feet under the float but that depends on water depth 4. When using hard tackle, use small spinners and spoons with single hooks. Blue, silver, gold, pink or any combo of these are the best colours Those rubber worms do work but theyre meant for fishing in current. Trout are very smart fish and can easily tell real from fake...hence using a real worm I personally dont like powerbait, doesnt work all that well...but thats my opinion Biggest thing is to keep moving and casting in different spots. If your worm doesn't get bit within 5 mins, reel up and cast in a different spot

[@cheapshotfishing9239]

Light line makes all the difference! I prefer 4lb maxima fluorocarbon for leader

[@sgthgr8jr13]

Not gonna lie I landed one of my PB’s on power bait, not saying I’d use it everytime because it’s messyey and the glitter in it makes you’re wife question y’all’s relationship. But from experience you really wanna use real small hoos for trout and make the ball of power bait as perfect and small as possible I like to only hide the tip of the hook pretty much almso to the bend of the hook.

[@Dutch9604]

I can get stock trout on 25-8 Ib line

I feel like stocked trout are braindead lol

[@tiberiuswade8789]

It's NOT the government that stocks those fish at all. It is the state wildlife fishery department each year. Good way to introduce people to fishing

[@chevyfeltz8788]

Wonder who the state works for

[@303Fishing]

I’d recommend a worm. I have a stocked trout lake that always produces if you use a simple worm and a bobber.

[@themomofmemes467]

Yep stocked trout are very finicky to catch. Some years I catch 40, others I only catch a couple. Don’t feel bad lol

[@sirjhonson8218]

Try wasp larva. You knock down a small wasp nest. Use a cup half full of gasoline to cover the nest and all the wasps will not be able to breath. They will fall into the cup. Now you have just the nest. Pull the caps off of the larva and use them to fish with. You can catch Trout, Bass of all kinds, Crappie, Perch and many different panfish. My Grandpa used to put on his insulated coveralls, a motorcycle helmet with a scarf wrapped around his neck and welding gloves. He would just walk up to the nest and just knock it down with a stick.

[@jairosendsit8667]

Trout are some of the smartest fish you can catch you have to use tiny hooks and really small test line

[@frg28_yt69]

Oiiiiiiii mate i have a tip for you im Australia just walk up s and say what are you using and watch a few outdoorlivnnn tic toks on what little lures he uses

[@blenderbender5582]

Hey... I have some luck on spinners sometimes. You could also try fly fishing.

[@sinep6060]

in Netherlands this method is most used because lure fishing is for experts here and for beginners lure fishing is sometimes catching nothing for weeks

[@ScootersTroutFishing]

Fluorocarbon is a pretty big help when dealing with trout. I'd recommend 4-6lb if you're trout fishing. Also, don't be afraid to change spinners. Some trout are looking for that particular color.

[@Speakezze]

You have to be willing to accept not catching a fish while also being optimistic.

[@khimmones9026]

1) USE A SPINNER 2) Splitshot a foot a way from hook, attach floating trout dough 3) use a worm on a floater. the worm will catch anything

[@SerialAngler]

My favorite setup by far is a bottom fishing rig with a mouse tail smeared in garlic scent floating up however much is needed. I go barbless because they almost always swallow that rig whole.

[@Dutch9604]

If the trout are fresh from the hatchery use corn, or use small sections of shrimp with a piece of corn on the hook end. They tend to hang around 1-2 feet deep and you want to be in the high traffic zone of where they tend to eat which means look for unusual ripples in the water

[@larrydaniels852]

Try pickled corn usually works very well

[@danisahumanable]

Clear bobber 4' away from a small single hook with a worm. Make sure the bobber is kinda filled with water and keep casting and realing

[@craigstuckey319]

Also canned sweet corn is unbeatable for stocked trout.

[@mattburke9554]

Try bread or corn and use a smaller hook u should get em caught a brown today on bread and a tiny bobber

[@HardPressCollex]

Completely cover the hook in power bait so you can see any of the hook just the line sticking out of the powerbait

[@jordanmongkon5336]

If you’re using braid you should try to put a 4-6lb fluro or mono leader should help you with bites

[@Like_M3i]

The silicon worm with the circle you where using actually caught me 2 blue catfish and 1 channel catfish and to do this you make it dance in the water so you jiggle your rod gently because inside the water the worm will dance it the water so the trout at the pond you were trying to catch will most likely mistake the bait as s real worm so yep!

[@cory1275]

Yo use tiny hooks and also use minnows as bait u can use a bobber or real it super slow with a weight

[@brocksmith6962]

The only people who can consistently catch stock trout are the ones that leave 30 fish heads and a can of corn when they leave.

[@HilltownFishing]

Just use worms LOL. Much more efficient than powerbait. If you’re gonna use powerbait, use smaller hooks and tie a hair rig

[@kalebthornton5205]

I had the same problem beginning of this year but I used a smaller hook then I was and just a basic worm and started to get em! I think where your worms is floating is huge

[@bxmo8005]

i dont know if it will make a difference but try corn, like a piece or two on just like a regular blue gill hook

[@nickcavanaugh9586]

use a small piece of cut bait and a small hook and splitshot around 12 to 18 inches from your bait i figured this one out while catfishing at my local lake

[@bengarrison5256]

At least where I am in Texas. The stick trout will not bite any kind of fake lure or trout bait ball things. However. Garlic corn. Or marshmallows are amazing

[@ericpettyfishing]

I always catch Trout on tiny spoons or spinners. Also bobby Garland OG shad

[@huntermccarty426]

Shields lake? My wife used to live right down the street from there! Got my first top water bass at the pond

[@varriklegg5559]

Instead of that big tie on weight, try split shot weights, they hug your line more and are alot less visible, and also they allow your bait to sink slower which trout like that like

[@meatchum8340]

For trout in stocked ponds i usually use salmon eggs or roe i fish them on a small slip float

[@meatchum8340]

Pink spinners and yellow spinners work good for trout

[@pinballjunky7117]

Put a worm on the hook and inflate it so it will float. If the fish came from a hatchery, use some hatchery bate. The fish are hungry. They will eat the right food.

[@bensmall2602]

Trout can be super tricky to catch, I'd say a natural presentation or just straight up natural bait is probably gonna work better in areas with lots of fishing pressure

[@rainbow-troutfisher9005]

You will get ‘em try Rapala countdown no power bait !

[@Steve-em4tb]

Canned corn or worms always work with stockers.

[@Apexfishing2010]

[@huntersoutdooradventures413]

Use berkly mice tails, someone named like lip ripper or something has many good videos on them and even tho he seems like a goon he definitely knows his stuff

[@jb7573]

Make sure your bait is floating the hook aswell!

[@Fly-guytv]

Here’s a tip I learned I was fishing trout with a friends dad and he said use light tackle and live bait they like the movement of natural things so throw small crayfish and a couple worms

[@marcusreichert8566]

Use mini jigs or hookup baits on 2-4# line an Ultralight jig your slack and keep your line straight

[@insanesavagetv]

Nightcrawlers in 2ft to 5ft of water if they arnt hitting on the bottom put a bobber on and keep your bait just under the surface.

[@randlemalone4884]

In my local pond we use light Carolina rigs with yellow power bait or corn but the weirdest one is marshmallows

[@cisco8257]

Corn, size 6 or 4 circle hook, 4Ib leader, and a bobber.

[@Jack-r5c4b]

That mouse tail was 100% sunken because of the jig hook you put it on

[@finnalexander17]

Try chronimid fishing on the fly or casting and retrieving a fly like a pumpkin head or blob. Lot more fun then bait fishing

[@Kaseclawson]

I make my own in-line spinners and we catch so much rainbows on them

[@alejandrocalzada8548]

stocked trout eat baits toward the surface i never had luck until using power bait eggs just enough to make em float and right below the surface

[@connorbyrd9275]

Yin been on point with the loops lately

[@TaylorJtcounty]

Try whole kernel corn! It’s works for me most ever time, if not try regular night crawlers, or try your hand at learning fly fishing it’s another great way to catch trout and it’s a hell of a good time fight them on a fly rod set up

[@shrekcbo]

My advice would be a small treble hook and lead bait. And make sure it's floating

[@Maus_gaming]

Small hooks, Pink worm rigged wacky and split shot. That’s good for stocked early fall to mid winter. Then start using spinners, crank baits, halgermites later in the spring

[@bradley6604]

I’ve caught some on 1/64oz jigs rigged up with 2.5” inch power bait minnows, here in midwestern stocked ponds. I’ve almost had luck on trout spinners too, mepps and panther martin make some cool ones!

[@tftoutdoors6582]

Just get a worm put it on a size 8 hook Small weight Smaller float with about 2-3feet of room and cast best way to catch them at a pond

[@frankiesosa7915]

When powerbait, spinners, and artificial baits let me down.. I throw a meal worm or red worm 🪱🎣

Use a bobber and worm or a small rooster tail. That ussually works for me

Here’s a tip if wherever your fishing doesn’t allow, don’t use two poles and also that disgusting play dough your using is called power bait.I know you know that I’m just saying worms and a lot of lures depending on where you live don’t work depending on where you live

[@cheapshotfishing9239]

Try two power eggs with like 2" of live nightcrawler. Push the eggs up the hook shank until the second egg covers the eye of the hook, then thread the worm onto the shank. Good floating live bait with a spot of color and some extra scent.

[@tommymeadows6990]

Use minnows for stocked trout. They go crazy for them.

[@A-BlazingPitchforks]

Also u should go to Aurora reservoir It is near me and I don't know what kind of fishing I should do cause I can't catch a trail. I can't catch anything I can't even catch a bass and I've never caught a bass.

[@castaftercastfishing3751]

Use a 4-6 pound mono leader and smaller hooks

[@canaanlouis]

TIP Use 3 pound line and a fly don't use mono line

[@cody.reynolds]

use smaller hook and smaller egg wait. also ur line looks more than 4lb. trout are line shy so u have to use 4lb or less. also fluorocarbon is the best choice bc it’s more invisible under water and sinks

[@bronzebackbassing18]

i find with powerbait doesn't work, a trout magnet with a bubble float or a pink or chartruese floating worm on a split shot rig to do the tricm

[@Amxer1852]

For the mouse tail bait, use a white power egg and a pink worm, they like that combo better

[@Collin1427]

I luv ur vids, I always make sure to comment to push them!

[@hammerdownhammerdown2540]

Put your bait and hook at least 15 to 20 in away from the weight so it can float freely away like it's just a piece of bait floating in the and keep a tight line and look for a small tiny little wiggle it's going to be very very minut and then pick up the runt without shaking it start reeling it in slowly and see if you got something on it

[@jamesondutton4301]

I catch pond stocked trout with a size 8 bait holder hook a split shot about a foot above the hook and a single kernel of canned corn on the shank of the hook

[@keithl2110]

Pautzke's green label fireball salmon eggs 18 in below bobber. check the jar for juice inside to make sure they arent dry. 💥

[@Myfootinplaces]

here's a tip use clear 8 pound line not braid

[@cheapshotfishing9239]

Also, the reels you're using look like daiwa fuegos. They're great reels, but designed for inshore use and as a result have reeeeally strong drag systems. So when you switch to lighter lines make sure you set your drag properly, as the drag on that reel can very easily lock down and break light line.

[@FISHERYIN]

They are vanfords

[@cheapshotfishing9239]

Good taste, same applies. Even the 2500 vanford is sitting between 15 and 20 lbs max drag if I remember correctly, you'll only want it set to around 4 lbs if that

[@blakethomas1607]

Use small treble hooks and cover every part of the hook cause trout have good eyes

[@Fishing_mission]

Don’t underestimate that playdoh

[@mattnguyen1672]

If you use mouse tail make sure it floats. Carolina rig. Small mosquito hook

[@shpraztina2891]

A three hooked blinker is the best for trouts !!

[@Cole_messmer]

Like earlier mentioned use small hook, and stock trout love bread

[@Chopped93VX]

Small jig head and a worm. No slide weights no pinch weights no bobber. None of that crap. The worm never fails me.

[@tarhlfn]

If it's the government putting them in there, I wouldn't eat any of them...

[@blayze2019]

I've had the best luck on stock trout lakes with worm and bobber about 8 foot deep, or off the bottom if you go off the bottom use a worm blower on your worm, if you have access like a dock to walk out to deeper water, using a 1/16 ounce jighead with a worm and jigging it works great too

[@mattnguyen1672]

2 lb mono, cast close to bank, spray/coat your bait AND your leader with a scent spray or gel
