  • In this video I show you the BEST Powerbait rig/setup for Trout fishing in ponds and lakes.
    I went to one of my favorite local ponds to do some Trout fishing. I decided to use Powerbait and I wanted to show you my favorite setup. It's very easy and simple. It works GREAT! I show you how to tie the rig and get it setup. I also show you my favorite Powerbait to use. I caught some Rainbow Trout on Powerbait and I also caught a Rainbow Trout on a spinner.
    THANK YOU for watching!

    I'm one of those fishermen who don't like to see fish suffer after being caught...that I'm going to keep , so I knock the fish hard on top of the head to knock it out . My needle nose pliers are heavy enough to knock it out if I hit fish with metal handle part..not needle end. Putting rope , metal chain , or a stick through its gills and leaving it in water to try and breathe seems cruel. It's suffering so I knock mine out and put it on stringer if water is cold or I put it on ice. I'm not a tree hugger but I want the least amount of suffering for what I just caught.

    Very nice video normally if I don't have intentions on keeping trout I won't fish for them at all they're too fragile of a fish

    When you’re fishing with circle hooks, never set the hook by jerking your rod up, it will most likely jerk the bait out of the fishes mouth, and it may get the hook stuck in his throat. The key for hooking fish correctly with circle hooks is, slowly start to move your rod sideways, and slowly start to reel while you’re moving your rod sideways, then start picking up speed reeling, and moving your rod sideways. That way, it will hook the fish in the corner of the mouth, every.. single.. time.. it works for me every time. Try that tip next time you go fishing with circle hooks.

    I went trout fishing over the weekend and there were people next to me at the lake just reeling in trout after trout. I saw they had filled those plastic, see thru bobbers with water and were able to cast much farther than me to access trout in the deeper, colder water. I changed my rig to theirs and limited out in 1 hour!...cheese or green power bait on a 3 foot leader.. and it doesn't fall off the treble hook as much as using weights. Have you heard of this rig?..the line still slides thru the bobber like a slip weight.

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  Před 6 lety +1

      Yes. Float & Fly technique. Except instead of using a fly you're using powerbait. You would need to use sinking powerbait instead of floating powerbait. It is a good technique for Trout. I have heard of a lot of people doing well with it. I have never personally tried it though.

    • @jonathanmosher72
      @jonathanmosher72 Před 5 lety

      It's definitely more ethical. Using Powerbait on the bottom is only good if you plan to eat the fish since they swallow the hook 50% of the time.

    We like to use power eggs because the trout swallow them and we can get them back when we clean them. Favorite colors are orange,chart,lemon lime and bubblegum. If we use the dough we add lots of rainbow glitter to it. Happy New Year!

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  Před 6 lety +2

      Not sure why I am just now seeing this. I like using power eggs too! I can usually catch several Trout on the same power eggs. I've done the best with Sunrise (orange). Thanks for watching and Happy New Year!

    Been using that rig for years, for power bait I love the Berkley’s chartreuse trout bait. When they are freshly stocked or hard to catch I coat it in
    Hatchery dust.

    While I understand your point, fish that die in the pond do not go to waste. It will eventually be eaten by other creatures in the pond. Nature knows how to handle it. Yes, I would prefer not to unnecessarily kill a fish I don't intend to eat. But it will be eaten.

    have you tried pautzke balls of fire? in cali and nevada they work very well for stocked trout in any kind of water

    • @FishHawk
      @FishHawk  Před 6 lety +1

      I haven't tried them yet. I follow Pautzke on Instagram and they are always catching nice Trout. I may need to give them a try. Thanks for watching!

      You just gotta get the right information and fish the right spots. It can be a big learning curve but once you get to know the water’s around your area, it’ll click. Even then though, the greatest fishermen still get skunked every once in. a while.
