i love hearing and seeing sea-trout in other areas and hearing the different names SALTERS is class!! in ireland we call them whitetrout we catch them in the tide and in rivers, great video man, ive a few videos on my channel if you ever get 5 mins to have a look at our sea-run browns
Hey great video listen I used to fly Fish for Atlantic salmon back when we cod and your right a 10 or 12 lbs fish going. For your flys is amazing I even caught a couple big brookies out of the penobscot river I thought at first it was a young salmon but when you see them dig for the bottom there's no doubt . I believe those brookies were sea run trout the dams that were removed now the fish can come and go great video and tight lines
If they take that dam down just a little ways up from where you are fishing this could be on of the best fishery’s in Maine, sea run browns, stocked browns that are regularly over 21 inches and striper in the lower part of the river that is close to the ocean
Interesting. I grew up on Long Island, and we have a (somewhat) sea-run fishery - if it's appropriate to call it that, lol. I caught a sea-run brown about 30 years ago and it was, without a doubt, living in the salt and had taken up the colors of a "true" sea-run fish. Of course, I knew they were there, my uncle took me to fish this particular river (the Nissequogue) a few times in my young life, always for the elusive sea-run brown. . .and, I don't recall ever catching any. Though, when we went, it was in the winter, after everything else was in slumbering mode, including trout. Well, one time I caught a nice one. It was, I guess, about 18 - 20" and it was practically all silver except for some small, I mean real, real tiny, red dots on it. I've never seen another fish like and I've fished my whole life, caught plenty of steelhead, striped bass, etc., but that fish always stood out to me. So, I found a blog by an English gentleman that has a similar image of a sea-run brown that I thought you fellows might enjoy. Here's the link: hawker-overend.com/how-to-fish-for-daytime-sea-trout-welsh-dee/
It's our attempt at starting a sea run fishery. Ive caught some silver ones and seen one s caught locally that are 26 inch and silver almost salmon looking
#creston laager a welsh gentleman fishing a welsh river. You can call him Welsh or British but definitely not English! That would be like calling a Canadian a yank.
Glad I could help! They get stocked here and will come back to spawn in the fall. They will venture out to the ocean if there is not enough food around.
Hey just really started following your channel. Those salters are really cool! We have some in southern MA as well that I have seen while duck hunting I have been wanting to give it a try but haven't yet
No hate from me, but these fish are merely stockies that have chosen to reside in the brackish water, just FYI. I have fished this river for 10 years, November to March and have managed only two sea run browns. Both fish were very obviously sea run browns, as opposed to the stocked fish. I will say they stock some gorgeous looking browns every fall, and it makes for great fishing. Again, no hate, just letting you know. A true sea run almost looks like a salmon. Even ones that have spent a fair share of time in the freshwater-they lose some silver but not enough to look like these browns Tight lines man 🤟🏼
Nice bunch of advertising, good comments about products, hope you got paid...Where are all the fish you talk about? I saw TWO little brook trout and a nice ad for F**k My Coffee mud ? WTF? Oh BTW what YEAR was this and WHERE ? Thanks
mate did you honestly write that comment? at least hes tryin and doin a good job of it too! where are all your sea-trout videos with high quality production values?
@@BendItFishing he must be but i bet hes not new to a black eye or two if hes speaking to people like that! too many ignorant people in this world! ive fished for sea run browns for nearly 30 years mate your channels great!! never listen the haters pal 👍👍
All salmonods run to the sea That wasn't a sea run they are completely silver all most look like a Salmon ,an they run to the sea in the spring ,ur catching just plain browns
They do change colour back to brown after some time in the river. But some resident browns look quite silvery too. Sometimes it’s impossible to tell. A good rule of thumb is that resident browns tend to have some red spots among the black although not infallible it can give an indication.
