Wow, great video. What is the key for summer steelhead in July and August? I think water temp and wind are the keys but what kind of wind should be good?
I’ve seen you guys fish in all sorts of weather and catch fish, how do the weather and water conditions affect the fishing? Or do you have a good source i can go to to learn about that stuff? Love your videos! Thanks in advance!
Free floating on the line. The bobber brings them up to the surface since they are above the float. The shrimp sinks so the length of your leader is how deep you will b e
Hey man would afternoons be a good time to hit the south haven pier if the water is cold. I was out this morning with no luck, but people on the other sure were killing it. Was thinking about going after work.😊
Do you ever use this method for spring steelhead? Heading that way in a few weeks and was planning on floating bags. My spawn is not in good shape and majority of the stuff for sale is cured. Looking for some other options. Thanks.
What’s a good main line? I got 15lb hi-vis mono because I also use this rod as my float setup. I noticed that I didn’t seem to pull much fish though. Should I downsize or switch colors?
So when pier fishing, it’s all about the wind, which way the wind is blowing and if it’s blowing in cold or warm water,so do you watch the wind on all the Piers along Lake Michigan I have no idea All I know is pier fishing is pretty hard most of the time catching sport fish
Okay so when you go to cast it the weight goes far out and bobber stay close to shore?And I can’t get the shrimp out far enough like that..How would I fix it or is it all in how you cast?
It's the time of year for a good stamp of sea trout where I live and that's a method of floating a bait that's so simple yet perfect for keeping a bait high in the water without it drifting which is sometimes inconvenient when you want a bait held high in the water column so I'll have to try it definitely. Did you just leave the float to slide free with a leader on the swivel above and just try different lengths?
If it helps anyone when I was in Milwaukee nov 1 for tool concert we had enough to time afterwards to fish McKinley, and south shore. We were sightfishing a few groups of kings left over from spawn. They would chase up spoons, cranks and jerkbaits but wouldn’t commit. I ended up using a plastic fluke and a light jig head and had to get it in from of them and piss them off but they would eat it.
For my main line I’m running 10lb test, because someone who fishes steel head told me that was a good choice… but I see you run braided… am I still good to catch fish? Afraid it’s going to snap
Just gotta look into DNR regulations for some areas for this setup. Unfortunately the DNR doesn't allows weight ties directly to the main line in some rivers and what not. The regulations vary from stream to stream river to river lake to lake just make sure before you guys fish you look into the regulations for the body your fishing and the species. Dont get fined lol
