You know what’s a breathe of fresh air? It’s how you’re down to earth. There’s no judgement going on just straight passion for the sport. I like that you’re a braid guy and don’t bash on people who use straight 2lb. You give pros and cons to multiple tactics. Do you have an opinion on JDM rods and reels? Would be an interesting next endeavor. I have a 7-6 gloomis tsr and I recently got a 6-3 JDM rod that casts further and is quite a bit more sensitive. I haven’t gotten into their reels yet, but most of them have “shallow spool” models, which would seem more ideal for using braided lines. Thanks for all the info! Love the attention to detail

Alrighty, this is the video i been looking for. Very good step by step break down. I really wanted to try some mini jiggin but very few around my area uses them. Esp for northern nevada. I use japanese bfs gear thats made for trout fishing mountain streams and the action on the rod you showed is the same thing i look for in a rod. My go rod is shimano trout one ns rods, abosolutely love it. Also idk you seen but they make braided line for trout fishing. Very fine line but strong. Usually bright colored so u can quicky locate where you are at in fast moving water and actually use to ur advantage to fish between/around rocks.

Hi Brian, I’m doin well. The spoons I recommend are the RHA custom spoons in 3g or 4g. There is a quick link to the website in this videos description if you want to order some. As far as my top RHA picks, I have a video on how to fish spoons for trout and I lay out my favorites 🤘
Rob thanks for the info on the spoons. Picked up both 3 and 4 g. Question for you when you have a second. Looking forward to the cooler weather and the So Cal trout season. Will be fishing braid for the first time this year. How do you set your drag with braided line. I know on mono you set it to give at the point of stretching but how do we do it on braid? Thanks
@SeaSpankerOutdoors

Honestly I don’t have any set method to setting my drag regardless of what line I’m using. I literally do it by feel. I just set it a couple clicks tighter so the drag isnt active when the fish is on and not running if that makes sense

Great video! Thanks for sharing all your knowledge to newbies like me. I’m fairly new to using mini jigs and was wondering if the trout bite is affected by the fly fishing clips you mentioned. Do you always use those while using mini jigs? Thanks for sharing.
@SeaSpankerOutdoors
Жыл бұрын
No I haven’t noticed any difference in the bite at all and I’m using those clips all the time now. It comes down to personal preference at the end of the day. Some guys I fish with use them and some don’t but I’ve never noticed a difference in the amount of bites when fishing next to a guy that wasn’t using them.

Its just the action of the rod that’s probably causing that. I tend to like a little more whip than stiffness in my rods but thats just me. Keep fishing it for a while and you may get to where you like it. Alternatively you can buy another rod with more of a fast action (stiffer)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm going to mammoth lakes in 3 weeks, any advice? I seem to have just about all the gear you mentioned in this video, and more.

The advice I usually give for the Sierras is try the more natural looking stuff first. Once in a while they get hot on the bright flashy stuff but usually the natural lookin stuff is the ticket. Move around alot. Most of those lakes get good stocks for the end of the season so if your not getting anything at your location go somewhere else. The trout will be out there.

Hey man awesome content! Me and the family are making our annual trip up to June Lake Loop soon, we’ve always just done wait and bait but I’m looking to try the jig style, this video was very very helpful! Was also wondering what color jigs work best up there? Thanks!!
@SeaSpankerOutdoors
2 ай бұрын
I get asked this question alot and the short answer is there are no set colors for lakes. There are lots of factors that determine what color a trout is going to want each day. That said in the Sierra most lakes are clear so I typically start with the more natural looking colors instead of the real bright colors as bright colors dont look like somthing that would naturally live in the water. So the best advice I can give you is have some natural, some bright, and some dark. Try all the colors until you start getting bit. This is exactly what myself and all the other GSF Prostaffers do. When we all fish together, everyone use a different color until we can figure out what the trout want that day if all that makes sense

Nice NIN shirt. I have a question regarding the Runcl line. Recently a guide told me that Fluor- carbon coated line is the worst thing one can use as leader material. He said that as the mono stretches the fluorocarbon coating doesnt and thus cracks. He said this leaves your line - invisible, seen, invisible, seen as the line is viewed by the fish. I really like the runcl line. I use it on everything. I do catch more fish than my buddies that do not use runcl line but I think they just suck. lol.

No worries, not bothering me in the least. I totally remember that. I have some hearing damage so sometimes I dont catch everything. The sgt major just told me that someone was talking me and I heard her respond but I didn’t know what you said so I didn’t know what to say. Sorry bout that 😬. As far as the bite, I have some theories but no concrete evidence. Strongest theory is that due to the early heat wave the water warmed up fairly quickly but there is plenty of oxygen in the water due to the aerators so the trout have the option of going deep. So in the morning the bite is pretty good but as soon as it warms up the fish go deep until the afternoon bite. Im gonna be out there Friday with the fish finder so hopefully I’ll get some answers
