Trout Fishing Tips & Techniques: River, Streams & Creeks | SFSC

Описание: ~Gear & Tackle Used Linked Below~

Today I head out into the Shenandoah mountains in western Virginia to fish a remote trout stream. I traveled about two hours by car down gravel roads and then hiked into my destination. The long trip was definitely worth it though as the creek/stream was loaded with some beautiful rainbow trout.

I catch the trout on a couple different lures/spinning setups including rooster tails, trout magnets and Joe Flies. I walk you through a couple different techniques and tips to catch trout based on a couple of different factors such as water clarity, current and structure. Hopefully with these tips in mind you'll have more luck on your next trip to your trout creek.

Thanks for coming along on this trout adventure and let us know what you want to see next!

Marabou Jig: https://amzn.to/2L6usX5

Get your variety pack of Marabou jigs today, so you can hook up on your PB! The thing I love about these lures is that they are cheap for how effective they are!

Split Shots: https://amzn.to/3dqp25v

You guessed it, another variety pack. It is really important to have a range of split shots you can put on your line. This allows you to test and see which weight works best for each of your reels, jig, and line type. Not to mention the ability to target different depths of water.

Trout Magnet: https://amzn.to/2xHoMjk & https://amzn.to/3frtyCB

Trout magnets are one of the most popular lures to use under a float for trout....and rightfully so; they get the job done! I'd recommend getting a couple different colors to match the conditions you are fishing!

Trout Inline Spinner Kits: https://amzn.to/2L7zF0X & https://amzn.to/2A8kQJn & https://amzn.to/3dquxkO

If you are new to using inline spinners I'd recommend getting a kit with a variety of them. Panther Martin has a great variety pack!

Trout Strike Indicators: https://amzn.to/2YIELJd &https://amzn.to/3c8k6C5

When float fishing for trout you need to get some strike indicators in order to be as effective as possible! These lightweight floats will ensure you see even the smallest of bites!

Woolly Buggers: https://amzn.to/2zfi9oS

The bug, the myth, the legend. This thing slayed em, no doubt about it and this variety pack gives you the option to try out a couple different colors to see which ones you like and more importantly the trout!

If you just wanna go with all black here is a 12-pack. - https://amzn.to/2Lb3sWK
However, I would recommend having a couple different colors because you never know which one they will like!

Casting Bubbles: https://amzn.to/2Lb9zKB & https://amzn.to/2xHrgya

These are a must if trying to fish dry flies. They are extremely light weight so you can't cast them effectively without some weight and these add the weight you'll need. Additionally, they are very buoyant and will keep you fly floating on top of the water. Giving you the ability to fish nymphs, caddis and other dry flies.

Fly Starter Kit: https://amzn.to/2YM1gNd & https://amzn.to/2WDsov1

At this cheap price point there is no reason not to buy this assortment pack! It provides you with a variety of flies and boy do these flies catch em. In this video I was mainly using the black woolly bugger! Booyah


Trout Rod: https://amzn.to/3dnUz8c

I use the 5 foot berkley cherrywood ultra light rod. The sensitivity on the rod is amazing, which makes it great to feel the trout. I also use this rod for catching panfish. The light action makes the fight fun!

Trout Reel: https://amzn.to/35HdkAE

The 1000FE is a great choice. It is not too big, but still holds a good amount of line. I have used my shimano reel for 10 years and have not had any problems with it. It still is smooth as butter!

Trout Combo: https://amzn.to/2xI1dXL

Here is an option for you combo lovers out there, pick the light 5'6"! I use a pflueger trion reel for trout, crappier, and bass fishing and it works great. The rod appears to have great sensitivity, but still have enough backbone to set the hook.

Other Trout Rods & Reels: https://amzn.to/2zkHkGs https://amzn.to/3cpdzDn


Flourocarbon Fishing Line: https://amzn.to/2WDsG55

When trout fishing you need to have flourocarbon line - as it's almost invisible to the trout's eyes (they have very good visibility and if they notice fishing line they may be hesitant to bite). I usually run a 4lb flouro leader!
