Trout Fishing 101: Basic baits and rigs for your local stocked lake, pond or river

[@mahichlavrenteva2099]

*These floats do what they say they do **enjoyable.fishing** recommend they come on and off easily and can be adjusted in seconds to adjust to the depth of the water you are fishing in. Used these with trout magnet lures and did really well with them in the stream!*

[@michaelwatkins3842]

I think the most significant advice you gave was in the final moments of the video- “Just go out there and have fun”. Priceless advice. I’m 60 years old and fondly remember my dad teaching me to trout fish. He was always the one who caught the most, because he had patience, and knew how to enjoy the art. He is long gone now yet I still consider those moments vital and most of all, fun. To this day I enjoy time on that mountain stream he shared with me long ago, and have had the privilege of teaching my son and grandson what he taught me. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for the sport. Families are often not as functional now days as they were 50 years ago, but teaching someone to fish IMO is perhaps as important as it ever was. Thank you sir!

Best clean simple presentation I have seen. My grandsons loved it!

Mr. Kelly your presentation with the water tank is spot on, it’s speaking to my learning style. 🎉Thank you so much‼️

going to be my first time fishing today. these youtube videos got me all wild up to catch a fish cheers!!

[@michaelambrose]

By far the best trout rigging video on KZbin!

[@orangef3802]

Great video. And I still use the 'classic' red and white bobbers lol! Sure they might be 'beginner,' but they're cheap, they work, and they give off that "Yup, I'm actually fishing" vibe.

[@IFHA23]

dude youre awesome! been fishing AZ trout for years this is spot on

[@zacharysherry2910]

This is one of the best fishing videos I've ever seen and there isn't any real fishing! Lol. Great accurate knowledge.

I’m going to Yellowstone in August, glad to finally find a good video on what to do to catch trout. Great video, thanks for the tips!

[@lemon-iu7bo]

So I made a comment last year about how 2018 was terrible fishing for me well this year has gone really good got 8 trout a few months after watching this video and all of them were caught using your methods. Also 2 days ago I caught a 27" steelhead. Edit: I just caught 6 trout yesterday

[@StopFishingStartCatching]

Thanks for the great video. Kind the standard tips . Love how you use a transparent bucket to display your floats... All around great video, Thanks.

[@robertmounsey4682]

Nice video. I've been transitioning from bass to trout and panfish fishing. This was a great overview of trout baits

[@sonnymullins6242]

Really nice video. I’ve always rigged up for trout with bullet weight, bead, leader and hook with gulp or corn. Always had success but never tried my spoons or spinners. After watching I think I’ll give those a try. Thanks !

[@JoseCee9800]

Learned a lot from this video. Thank you!

[@AlinJapan]

Lots of good information in this video! Thanks!

[@dostacos1]

Thanks for this! I went fishing this weekend and only caught one trout (hooked him on his side with a marabou jig) but finally gave up on trout and went for smallmouth bass and caught the biggest bass of my life, but I prefer trout, I'm just terrible at fishing for them.

[@lemon-iu7bo]

Hey man it gets better 2018 was a skunk year for me but 2019 went way better using his methods

I’m gonna try corn next time I go out fishing 🔥🎣 Thankyou for the informational video trout are starting to be stocked at my local lake again since Covid started and I want to get some

[@davidfregoso4836]

Great video. Consider myself mainly a bass angler but want to branch out to different fish especially trout. This video is a great start

[@lemon-iu7bo]

Me personally am not a bass fishermen I mostly go big game like steel head/ salmon, halibut or sturgeon.

[@josemarrero7982]

Awesome and extremely informative bro! Thanks, learned a lot watchin your video. Trying to catch trout now that it’s gettin colder out! I live in NJ and they stocked trout in a few lakes and rivers this past October but I cannot seem to catch one if my life depended on it! 😒 gonna try your techniques

Im not new to fishing. Ive been fishing for about 9 or 10 years now but boy o boy in 2018 I had so much trouble catching fish so im just reviewing the basics.

[@TheBeatenPaths]

Yup, don't over think it. I have the best luck with a classic spinner and an earthworm. The only thing other that I've had luck with is the Gulp Alive earthworm. None of these things in this video ever caught me a trout. www.fishingmegastore.com/powerbait/berkley-gulp-alive-earthworm-baits~13067.html

[@lets_fish_already_9345]

For bobber stops use the lightest split shot you can find I use tiny tin and fly fishing sinkers and they work great

[@lemon-iu7bo]

WOW that is a very smart idea ive been tying bobber stops from braid for years and never thought of using a split shot. You have made me feel dumb

[@StopFishingStartCatching]

That works! They also make really nice bobbers for trout fishing that are easy to put on and slip to different depths

[@ccotner3gc]

I've never been trout fishing, so this video was of interest to me. I've noticed you use much smaller hooks than what I'm used to. I'm going to vacation at BIG Bear Lake in California. Are the smaller hooks still what I should use?

[@renaldoknott4596]

what an amazing video! thank you so much

[@DerekBlais]

This is a great to-the-point guide. Though I prefer to stay away from treble hooks because I find them hard to unhook and unnecessarily harmful to the catch (especially when they're too small). I always switch out the trebles to singles on my Panther Martins and Blue Fox Vibrax spinners.

[@jacobsamir1]

This was a great video man, keep up the hard work and I hope to see more from your channel!

[@dwightstewart7181]

Well done video. I avoid soft plastics entirely, preferring worms, crickets, minnows, or kitchen baits (dinner leftovers, corn, bacon, etc) on hooks & bobbers instead. Also frequently use very small (1~2") in-line spinners, spoons, or crankbaits. Of course, that size small is important. Large lures/hooks will not easily catch trout and similar.

Newbie Angler Question, What is the bead for? Is it to stop the weight from hitting the swivel?

[@jedisentinel1499]

Still fishing in my local lake. Trout are 20-30' down. Bottom of lake 45-50' I use a bottom rig most of the time to catch with 18-24" leader. Powerbait or worm and a scented marshmallow. No hits, zero, nada. Bait's only floating 2' off the bottom. Trout can't look down ? What's a good technique while anchored to get the bait to that depth where the fish are? Worm on a hook let it fall to the bottom and reel up to that depth? So frustrating... Hundreds of fish not seeing or not interested. Please help!

[@StopFishingStartCatching]

trout will generally be looking up to look for prey - I'd try fishing a rooster tail/spinner at about 18 feet deep. Or live minnows

[@jacksonvang3429]

U r best love ur videos man.

[@deserteagles5911]

Some old timer told me that same thing when he saw me casting out my spinner when I was little. Saw my swivel attached to the spinner and said nah. He rigged it for me with a tiny barrel swivel and about 12in of flouro leader. I caught a trout about 3 casts later. He was there grinning like a proud grandpa. I gave him the trout because my momma said I couldn’t take it home 😒😆cool dude

[@tony2800]

I like the snap swivels just because I'm lazy and dont like retying everything lol what would be the best bet for me the only area near me with trout is a lake and idk anything about trout fishing

[@lemon-iu7bo]

Well a big part of fishing is not catching anything because thats how u learn. My first 2 years of salmon/steelhead fishing were just casting my line out and catching 0 fish. But on my 3rd year I had a lot of experience from watching others that I was able to use techniques I picked up and landed a nice 27" steelhead.

[@b.j.j.m7360]

[@theredroulette3444]

Can you show in a video a close up of a rig with a slip bobbers? What knot do you use? What size split shot?

That's the same way I am with my red and white old school floaters they have to be there or it doesn't feel like I have floaters even though I never use them

Omg Robbie fishing what are you doing here hahaha, I watch your videos every single day, bloody huge fan

[@beetelgeuse9938]

ill defend snap swivels.... as a new fisherman its easier to switch lures as i really dont want to have to cut and re-tie lures .... spend more time doing that than fishing lol

[@ryryk6977]

Use a pickerel rig and real worms split the worm in half so you got two half’s for each hook go to the pharmacy ask for a needle with syringe and then fill the end of worm with a bit of air so they float you’ll catch tons of trout :)

[@SirPraiseSun]

lol its 2021 and people still think swivels and for spinner line twists the blade spins freely ona piece of metal the whole bait doesnt spin... its like a fan snap swivel just makes it easy to swap lures and make carolina rigs or other stuff

Keeps the knot on your swivel from breaking cause of the egg sinker,

[@TheIridescentFisherMan]

Buys Floating power bait. Sinks it with a split shot from a Bobber. O.o

[@trolologuy02]

Joshua Rin well if the trout in an area are biting well on powerbait, it’s good to be able to set the bait at the right depth. If they’re hanging out at 2 feet in 10 feet water, it’s way easier to use a bobber rather than a bottom rig with an 8 foot leader.

[@TheIridescentFisherMan]

@@trolologuy02 Haha dont let the comment fool you I went straight out looking for sinking power bait and couldn't find any. That little trick is a saver.

[@razorblue9697]

If them guys isnt advertising and getting payed for it why are they doing it for. I wouldnt. His bait may not work in the same place we fish most of the time it doesnt.

[@deancarver6899]

I'd caution using the gulp eggs had way to many batches either not float or be so brittle that 1 fish and the eggs done.. The power eggs are a significantly better overall product.. Just half oz weight and a 3-6 ft leader with a no 6 egg hook then 2 power eggs.. don't forget the scent
