This is on the American side

I hope to explore it a lot this year. There always seems to be steelhead.

I was running my mainline to a small barrel swivel and then to about 3ft of fluorocarbon- it was the barrel swivel getting caught

​@FishinFolks learn how to tie an fj knot and then run a high speed barrel swivel the fj knot is so smooth you can tie on a 20 foot leader if you want works great in clear water conditions

You and I both. This is the only fish I’ve ever gotten at the lower... thanks for the sub!

rainbows and steelhead are the same fish lol. One lives in the river normally and one is lake run. Same fish though. Now you know.

Thanks for watching!

Just salt

Not sure what the rules are in PA- this was from NY where it is legal

I haven’t had much success this year anywhere... been trying all over but never can seem to land more than one

I’m not too familiar with the PA creeks, but here’s a map of all of the NY ones courtesy of the DEC: www.dec.ny.gov/docs/fish_marine_pdf/lakeeriesh.pdf

@@FishinFolks ok ty

American

For brown trout I use 6lb mono main and 6lb fluorocarbon leader. Could definitely get away with heavier main line but I only have one good reel and don’t like to waste line.

Thanks for watching!

@@FishinFolks No problem

I believe 30

I prefer 6lb main line and either 4lb or 6lb leader depending on the conditions

I believe the one I use is a medium-light

@@FishinFolks thank you for the response!

I think they’re floats. Eagle Claw Clear Steelhead float from Fishusa.com. Thanks for watching- hope to have tons of new vids this fall/winter!

The trout and salmon get massive in there! Hoping to get one tomorrow!

This was on the opposite side of the lake 😉. Western NY

Fishin Folks damn. Well, I’ll give er a shot up here then! Lol

In the springtime the brown trout are eating whatever they can in the shallows all over the lake. It’s a blast and I highly recommend

Hamilton, Ontario

That would’ve been a catch to remember!

Yup, river sturgeon - runs like a shark, but then stops and maybe runs again in a different direction - no matter your drag setting - maybe even a third run - all massive runs - then runs you on bottom thru rocks and breaks you off. Your not supposed to take them out of the water if caught, just take out hook - endangered - but they are coming back for sure, especially in the east coast rivers.

I believe 10mm

I realized afterwards it wasn’t a sucker but still wasn’t sure what it was until now. Thanks for the info! Wish it was another lake trout.

Thanks for watching! It always amazes me how even the little ones from Lake Erie are nice and thick. They’re eating good out there.

First time in my life I thought I was gonna get spooled

Definitely could’ve been. If it was closer to September I would’ve thought it was a huge king. Wish it would’ve jumped or something at least.

I am by no means an expert but if you’re going to a new creek I’d highly recommend going with a partner when the water is low and clear. I seldom explore new creeks on my own.

Thanks for checking it out!

Thanks for checking it out! Big fan of your videos.

@@FishinFolks Thx!!
