[ObamaIsMaBabyDaddy]

[newaver64]

fishing is fishing is fishing.

[tehlegend100]

fishing from shore.amateurs usually do that,maybe u should stick to flyfishing,maybe give the rod to your woman and she can show us how to catch fish!

[fishingwithrod]

@tehlegend100 Ya, that comment made a lot of sense.

[historyfan447]

@fishingwithrod he's just jealous that you get more fish than him.

[Br8km3dwn]

I use a silver Spoon it has a feather on it and i catch quite a few things on it but when i use my bronze one with no feather i dont catch as much is there actually a reason why ? my silver spoon is my lucky spoon :)

[fishingwithrod]

@Br8km3dwn Stick with the silver spoon... lol ;) It could be a variety of reasons. I usually choose the spoon colour based on the water clarity/colour. If the water is crystal clear, then silver spoon it is. If it is coloured, then a darker spoon like copper, bronze is used. The feather on the hook articulates so it creates a pretty attractive motion, trout and steelhead seem to like that a lot. Good luck!

[Br8km3dwn]

@fishingwithrod Thankyou very much for the speedy response! and yeah that could be it, the river's i go to are always quite murky :) God bless bro

[mmmmmarcus]

@fishingwithrod Ever try using a thomas buoyant? I do quite well with Watermelon, in the 1/6 Oz size. Everyone always tells me my spoon is too big lol

[NYmosVids]

Hey, I can't catch anything on my spoons? Any advice? Thanks

[fishingwithrod]

@NYmosVids Change of retrieving speed, size of the spoon can usually make a difference.

[NYmosVids]

what recomended spooners should i use?

[SSGTKILL]

What kind of spoon were you using?

[fishingwithrod]

@SSGTKILL Just a simple no-name 1/8oz nickel hammered spoon.

[fishingwithrod]

@adamlunn09 Check out the previous comments and the link in the info box as you'll find the name of the lake there.

[japeno]

[skater4nater]

What's the biggest rainbow trout you've ever caught?

[fishermen4life1]

is this lake common to catch fishing casting off shore, or can you pretty much go to any lake and cast spoons for a while??

[fishingwithrod]

@fishermen4life1 This is a pretty common method used for all lakes that are stocked with catchable rainbow trout. If you are in Vancouver, lakes that are worth trying with this method include: Sasamat Lake, Buntzen Lake, Deer Lake, Lafarge Lake, Como Lake, Rice Lake, Mill Lake, Browning Lake, Green Timbers Lake, Alice Lake, Brohm Lake, Edith Lake. Check out our website as well as the blog section to read more about it.

[TheVancouverMan]

I used to live in Vancouver, but I am currently in New Jersey. Could someone PM me with the names of theses lakes and their locations?

[fishingwithrod]

There are a dozen or so lakes around Vancouver that provide stocked rainbow trout fishery such as this one in the video. This particular lake is Edith Lake in Squamish. Other lakes include Alice Lake, Rice Lake, Como Lake, Lafarge Lake, Green Timbers Lake, Mill Lake, Sasamat Lake, Buntzen Lake, Rolley Lake, Whonnock Lake. If you go to our website, click on articles, then "Region 2 fishing locations", you will find information on all of these lakes.

i love trout fishing with spoons

[SORGENSxKAMMER]

Do you let the lure go all the way to the bottom?

[BassAnglerMike33]

no its basicly right under the surface and the trout come up because its shiny then they exlode on your lure

[canuckfan017]

what just a lure no 3 ways????? i wanna start catching them that quick

[canuckfan017]

hey im new to fishing and ive been to edith lots but ive not really had any luck do you use a down rig for edith???

[fishingwithrod]

Just casting a small spoon.

You can find out more about fishing at our upcoming event "Fish for the Future" on July 11th in Steveston. Look for info on our website.

[canuckfan017]

hey is this at edith lake?????

[fishingwithrod]

Yes.

[Bbkflys]

Tighten your drag and you will not lose the fish. The drag slipped when you set the hook.

[fusionstar916]

... thats horrible advice.

Let the drag slip. It gives you room should the fish decide to take off, your line wont break.

[jmac171]

not if he sets the hook like that he will just break line. Drag is fine enough to set a hook anyway. What he should do tho is not reel in while the fish is running or engaging drag because then all that is happening is the bail is spinning the line but not actually taking in line there for only twisting the line. You use the rod to bring fish towards you then bring up some line... and repeat. Maybe put some action on the spoon too, the odd jerk makes the bait look injured.

going their tomorrow

[bowriverblog]

Hello Rod, great video's you have. Stocked ponds are great to fish with kids and your family. One thing to point out folks is to watch how Rod is keeping a low profile, he is hiding beside that tree kneeling low to the ground.

He is out of sight of the fish which is key to not spooking fish stocked or not stocked. His odds greatly improve with this tactic.

Excellent video's Rod, keep up the good work !!

[jikininki1]

lol i went fishing in a small about 1/8 of a foot ball field and cought 7 trout in 8 minuts using wolly buggers. lol but fell in the water. the longest was about 15 inches.

[THExGOODxLIFE307]

hey, I'm going flyfishing next weekend I went on saturday but didn't catch anything, but my favorite spot will be ice free next weekend

[superscot69]

nice one

[steelyfisherman]

spoon of choice?

[fishingwithrod]

We were just using these regular 1/8oz nickel plated spoons with a stripe of powder paint (either orange, blue, green or purple) that I have applied on them. There is a photo of it in the latest entry of our website's blog right now.

[THExGOODxLIFE307]

I flyfish on a stocked lake lots of fun

[ROCKsquareANORACK]
