- Hi everyone! Come along on this trip as a go for my first solo lake trout fishing trip. I end up having some fun trying to land these fish by myself and get a surprise fish.
I fish mostly by myself on lake huron ( out of Harrisville and oscoda) . Last year was awesome for lakers and steelhead even walleye. It was a strange year , most all my steelhead were way up high even in 120fow to 150fow , I caught several between 5 an 10ft below the surface. My best walleye fishing was august in 120fow between 80 and 90 ft down using big spoons . The bite was best 30 minutes before sunset and right after sunrise. Crazy year but it was alot of fun. Good luck , great videos.
Thanks for commenting! I'm looking forward to the season for sure!
My dad always taught me..if your rod is parallel with the horizon you'll lose fish more often. Tip up son!!
Good tip! Thanks!
Great catch, I fish Lake Huron and Georgian Bay for some big salmon, I get some nice catches n video as well
Cheers 🎣🇨🇦🎥
Thanks for stopping by and commenting! Good fishing to you!
Lake trout are on my bucketlist for sure, they look like a ton of fun, and a really cool spot to fish!
Thanks for checking us out! Lakers are lots of fun. I'm trying to figure out a good recipe for cooking them though.
@@fish-itis9469 If they are like normal trout I feel like there aren't a lot of wrong ways to do it!
I love rainbows and other trout but lakers are really greasy. I tried them on the grill and they weren't too bad. Have to dry them out a little.
@@fish-itis9469 interesting, maybe smoking them would be a good way to go!
No comments about the banana LOL nice video
Lol! Thanks for watching..
j'ai bien aimé votre vidéo, et vous avez d'l'air sympatique !!! merci beaucoup!
Thanks for watching!
Question for you... When you are solo and bringing in a fish what is keeping the boat going straight? I'm just getting into salmon trolling this next season with a new (to me) boat. 19 foot Starcraft with main and a kicker. Planning on tying the kicker to the main steering with a tie bar. I'll be doing some solo fishing and I need to figure out a way to pull it off without dumping a bunch of money on autopilot. Thanks for the answer and great job on your videos.
Edit: I just saw your i-pilot remote hangin off your belt. I assume the kicker is pushing and the TM is steering. Right?
Thanks so much for watching the video and taking the time to ask a question! Yes, I use the I-pilot to steer the boat now, but didn't always have that. If you look at some of my videos when I didn't have it, I have to constantly adjust the wheel while bringing the fish in. A challenge to say the least, especially with salmon! Add some wind and waves and it makes it really hard. It's almost impossible to slow down but really hard to bring big salmon in that way. I invested in the I-pilot for this reason and also to "anchor" when fishing for other species.
How deep were you fishing here?
Hi there! I was fishing in 100 to 120 feet but down at the thermocline at 50 to 60 feet...
That’s quite deep! Thanks for the response and video
Love your video but next time get rid of that clicker setting on your real it's irritating!
I agree! Thanks for watching!
What port were u out of
Rogers City
Man, that lake looked beautiful! Did you get a different main motor?
Hi Moondog. The lake was definitely pretty that morning. You don't get to fish the big water when it's glass too often. Nope, same old Yamaha. Thanks for watching!
fish-itis what’s the song u used in the video
One thing I cant stand is everyone keeps there clickers on
Yeah, I've been turning them off recently. Although, I do like the sound they make when catching salmon!
@@fish-itis9469 they do sound nice
why don't you take the clicker off when you reel in...not good for the reel!!! Just sayin
Yes! I will turn it off next time. Although, I have to admit when catching King salmon I really like to hear the drag sing! Thanks for tuning in.
What is so funny when you catch the smallmouth ?? 🤔
Thanks for watching and commenting! It was more peculiar funny because I was targeting other species and happened to catch a big bass. I catch other species when targeting bass.
We're u buy ur self
I'm fishing out of Roger's city.
I love to watch people downrigger fish. I also love it when my release is set correctly and my rod snaps up .
I suggest that you loosen your line release a tad. You won’t be loosing fish so often Sir.Just saying......
Yes! Thank you for that. I don't like losing them either. I'm used to salmon which take it off pretty hard. I'll try rigging the releases looser the next time. Thanks for watching!
Where are you fishing location wise
Ron I fish Northern and Northeast Indiana
