Monster Rainbows in Argentina-Jurassic Lake HD

[WhereWiseMenFish]

Typically 9ft 7 wt rods on the lake although you can use lighter rods on the stream

[Jackplordy08]

what length rods and line weight you using ?

[jspassov]

If a fisherman was drug across the stones he wouldn't die either. However, it would take awhile to get over it.

there is a small stream that i go to and there is one fish that we continue to catch over and over every time we go there. sometimes we catch it 2-3 times in a day. when we land itwe will drag it up on the bank and itflops and flops but we still continue to catch it every time we go. those bows will be just fine. they are not going to injure themselves.

[KRGH3173]

what weight rod would you use for those guys?

[abeltri]

I really don`t like the way those guys treat fish, draging a trout over the rocks is nevera good idea if you plan to release it in good shape, fish a Nature designed to move in liquid and their bodies and inner organs suffer these colisions a lot. C`mon LOOP pros, act as the professional you pretend to be...

[Rockyspoon09]

There's a huge difference in the strike between a 2 or 3-lb trout and one weighing 15 to 20 lbs. The first is characterized by rapid, short amplitude motions while the latter is one huge jerk after another--almost like a moving snag and so overpowering you wonder at first if it truly IS a fish. That's why this would be the fishing experience of a lifetime.

Lake Strobel looks like the rainbow equivalent of what Lake Peddar Tasmania was for Browns in the 1970's. Pity there weren't handy cams or you tube around then or you would see seriously monster wild Brown trout to 20lb + on fly.

[BrownTrout117]

everyone thats talkin all of this crap on here are just jeleous that you werent there!

Awsome fish!

4 guys, 400 fish, two days...That's 50 fish a day, per person. If you fished 12 hours per day, that means you landed 1 fish every 14 minutes or so for twelve hours straight. A most impressive feat, given the size of these fish.

I'm not above killing a fish or two, but IF you do plan to release it, why drag it around on the rocks? It's not like your'e not going to catch at least 3 more within the hour.

[chuckpolzin]

any of you that think those fish died are nuts, i really get annoyed by how most of the west coast guys baby their fish , i swear some of the landing nets etc they take better care than they do transporting shamu from seaworld.

i have released plenty of steelies that flopped around on rocks and what not and they swam away no problem, slime layer for the most part intact, get over it. and like the guy said, this lake has em so plentiful who cares if you kill one here or there

[jj396j]

how often did u catch fish of that size

[PBSTARJ]

Jesus i little windy much :P nice vid though!

[PacoJerte818]

really good video... made me want to call in sick and go fishing lol

[WhereWiseMenFish]

During the 2 days the team of 4 probably caught in the region of 400 fish averaging around 8lbs. The only reason they are so plentiful and so large is because they have had zero competition in the lake since they were introduced a decade ago. As the numbers increase the size will decrease. If a fish died it will benefit the population control. Having said that a fish as powerful and as strong as these with as much feed as they have will not roll over and die on account of a few stones.

[andrewmc711]

i agree the fish probably died after it was pushed back into the water not fully recovered

[leonassi]

i have to say, u guys r very professional.

landing a C&R fish on the stones.
