Couldn't imagine a better spot to fish amazing 🤩

Great instruction there young fella! Looks like you need a late summer visit to clear out some of those logs. I’ve used “Mikes” pink salmon eggs with great success for domestic rainbow for years but they always swallow the hook, looking forward to utilizing the circle hooks in the future. Thanks for the tip!

Love this vid!! I live in Erie, PA, and I love fishing its tribs. So do 7,000 other people. I don't care to drift fish shoulder to shoulder right on top of pools, so I always hit the small, gin clear creeks. There aren't many options when you have pools with completely still water and no room to throw a spoon or fly fish. I'm the only one at the local fishing shop buying worms during steelhead season, but I hammer them compared to the guys throwing egg sacks for 7 hours straight. It's always tough navigating those logs!! Sometimes I throw my rod to the bank if they're hung up and try to net them to save my hook.

This was awesome.😎 We have a similar river very close to home. I sort of...accidentally, discovered I could fish the small holes in it, similar to this, when my #3 splitshot was still too heavy to drift. It just sort of sank, with a tiny corkie and coon shrimp. It has proven fairly successful so far. It's great to see someone else successfully using this approach. Thank you for sharing. 😊

Really enjoyed this video, Jesse. Love how hard you have to work for them but it pays off when you can land one. That was a bright fish. Too bad you lost the other ones, that’s how fishing the sticks is. Thanks for showing us the tips and tricks for fishing heavy structure using dew worms.

very good video. to me it is the main basics of fishing,butits a good reminder for me and a very educational video for ppl wanting to learn fishing and my girlfriend wants to go fishing this spring with me. so, we live in Canada and I am going to take her to Mill creek in Cambridge ON for brown trout which are stocked there and last year i caught my first brown which was about 12 inches by worm drifting into a pool. didnt see it. so very happy. good luck buddy!

Glad to see that i'm not the only one who uses circle hooks for trout! I mainly fish for conservation so circle hooks are key to prevent gut hooking, hence why they're my favourite when using live bait. The type of knot you use also plays a huge role when using circle hooks. I personally like to snell mine. Thanks for the upload, Jesse!

Three fish hooked, one landed , that’s not a bad ratio in my limited experience with Steelhead. Very cool little stream loaded with snags just waiting to mess you up but man those were some beauties in there. Lots of good pointers. Looking forward to the next one.

Hey man very helpful video, Did you use circle hooks for a specific reason or you just wanted to try them out on trout fishing? Thanks

@averageontarioanglers

Thanks for your support! to answer your question, circle hooks are designed to not gut hook fish so I like to use them since a lot of trout tend to swallow the hook when you use worms as bait. I do keep some fish for the table every now and then but mostly release the majority of the fish I catch.

Tip#9999 replace cord on that net before you loose it. One way to do it is pop off the end cap in the handle and remove the bungee style cord and add your own. Use some good epoxy when you replace the cap. Tightlines

Never heard of it

the tips i need but never seem to be available online is how to accurately find decent streams and creeks to fish. Like am i just supposed to be born into small fishing families and communities ? or like do i just drive around aimlessly without a destination and hope I randomly stumble upon creeks and rivers in the middle of the road ? like it would be so helpful if at least one of these videos would actually tell you how to find the fish, because i don't need to know how to catch them if i can't even find them first . Sadge fisherman always wanna make money fishing except for when it helps someone else have a good time fishing.

I find new creeks to fish all the time, no fishing family required. A little research and Google maps is all you need. Few trout fisherman will divulge their honey holes, too many get closed and posted as no trespassing when they become too popular. It often takes a lot of hard work and time finding these streams, and telling even a few (let alone all of KZread) the location would ruin that spot. I’ve seen that happen first hand on many of the streams I grew up fishing. One KZread video ruined the spot and the property was permanently closed. Many don’t realize that this is the reason these doors aren’t talked about, and the reality is good things aren’t given out easy you have to put in the work like everyone else. My advice: If you look at Google maps and follow creeks up to the headwaters you can see they often fork out into many smaller fingers. Find a few that look decent and drive to the nearest road that crosses them. Be careful to avoid private property. Hope this helps. Tight lines
