Float rigs for trout work great when done right. First you want to use a light weight plastic float with a clear bottom, then you have to use much smaller splitshots 2 or 3 along the length of your leader then adjust your line so that you are just bouncing off the bottom. It must all look as real as possible and you will do great. Took some time but it is now one of my favorite trout techniques. Pink worms work great. Also do not bunch up your splitshots. Spread them along your leader. I have great luck with the BB size wingless green weights. A natural float is key.

None of that is the problem with my rig. The bait can't bounce off the bottom when the water goes from 1 ft deep, to 3 ft, back to 2 ft and then 6 inches... Thanks anyway.

Awesome day of trout fishing! Especially after a slow start. 👍🎣

Catching them left and right after taking the float off. Great looking trout, and awesome video alex!

I was just trout fishing yesterday at a ‘local’ lake (about an hour drive for me.) It was me and two elder gentleman. Both had really good knowledge of the waters. We spent 6 hours sharing baits and techniques and all the little changes we made in our fishing to all key in on the fish. I came out with my daily limit of 3 as well as one of the others. The other guy took home 2. I also broke my PB for a chain pickerel, on a yellow rooster tail. Wind pick up, so I started nailing my lures out with the wind. Sped up the retrieval and gave it a few pauses along the way and beached a 29 inch pickerel. Besides that. It was a multi species day of trout, largemouth, pickerel, yellow perch, and bluegill. Really wanted a crappie to take home though. Still, hands down the best day of fishing in awhile for an all around fun day.

I fish for trout the same way. By bouncing it on the bottom. What I find happens more for me is the split shot gets snagged more than the hook. Like the video, man!

I catch the biggest amount of my trout using a bobber either jigging a berkley power worm or trout magnet . sometimes i even use it to float powerbait over weed beds. But i mostly fish lakes and ponds. Love your videos keep up the good work .

Tip on bobbers for trout the best ones to use, that dont scare them, and seem to work best for me is the clear ones you can put water in to adjust the float also 1.5-2foot leader made from 6pd line. Also when you add water to them, they seem to float in the current better, and dift nicely i into the holes, and pools.

Your absolutely 💯 % correct, people tend to look when you have a camera, as if they never seen a Go Pro in they're life lol 😁😆

Those eggs really work for me as well fished exactly the way you got them bouncing the bottom. Nice Rainbow there. Looks like a great spot too. Fish on!

Good looking trout!! They were biting really good!! Awesome video 📹 👏

A couple things to try: 1) different float depths, although I suspect where you are fishing the drift is too fast with a float. 2) For snaggy places try drop shotting using a split shot...a lot of times if the split shot gets hung up you can pull the line through the shot, only losing the shot. It can also keep the hook slightly higher than the snags. The split shot makes it easy to adjust the distance betwixt the hook and the shot. In some waters (still water ) I like to use the "critically balanced" "waggler"/British style stick floats...they indicated takes in any direction. Good video as usual! #keepitreelstick

@silaspitch9485

2 жыл бұрын

Agreed. Even though I sometimes bounce eggs along the bottom, I typically use a float in all waters. I'm in the US, but switched to UK-style float fishing a few years ago as it better suits my approach to fishing. I enjoy fishing more since making the switch. I do have a handful of crystal insert wagglers from the UK, but I typically use a Thill TG waggler for still water and dot it down to about a quarter-inch. For streams and rivers, I typically use a wire-stem float and continuously mend the line downstream. For these purposes, I'll use a Thill Turbo Master 6.5". I really like that float, so it's too bad that Thill no longer makes it. I suppose I'll have to hit up Ebay again for one of the UK swift water sticks if I ever need a replacement.

Most Trout we were catching in CA. where I use to live and they stocked during the winter, when we used a Texas Rig, we did use a lot of power bait, Mostly on a small hook and make a little ball of the Power Bait just covering the complete hook then kinda tight line fishing it like for Cat fish. We had more luck using Pumpkin, yellow garlic, yellow corn, and a light green color. Some would hit on the small baits like you used in a video a couple back with the mouse tails. Also we had a lot hitting on Little MINI MARSH MELLOWS..

Nice! I think trout get scared after the first week of being stocked, they seem to move from the top to 18in off the bottom. So, great call on switching it up! I know in another of your trout videos I said my first fishing trip was a trout outing at the Clinch River, but I was wrong. It was actually the Holston Valley river behind the steam plant, it was for trout though. The other place I couldn't remember was Cherokee lake. Felt like a liar had to correct myself 😅. I had to keep it Realistic!

Slip rig versus a stationary bobber is largely a matter of preference. You might try a sinking bait though, like salmon eggs, etc. With the bait sinking, a light tug from a fish will pull the bobber right under. Floating baits move up above your weight, so when you get a bite the bobber doesn't pull under. Science 👍Haha. I really dig the trout videos man.

@RealisticFishing

5 жыл бұрын

I think I will stick with what works, bottom bouncing. Science 😅

very important to adjust the depth of the line under the float so the bait can be in the strike zone. also a stick type float has less resistance so the trout don't feel it on the bite.
