A very nice brookie outing here. 25 or so to hand. Plan B provided the fattest brown trout I have ever witnessed :) Fish are snapping with the warmer nights and daylight. Happy fishing!
Sure i was already chomping on the bitd waiting for trout season up here, and you go, and put out this OUTSTANDING brookie vidio. Thank you for great video buddy. The liver is doing much better i will be hitting the trout streams waaaaay more this year.
Very nice Brookie outing ROn..i enjoyed that very much. Ill yell ya you talk about it from time to time how important it is for your casting to be precise, can you talk more about it in your next video to help folks that dont know how important it is. Im so impressed on your casting abilities. You hit some of those holes from the perfect angles. Thanks again Ron for the amazing video as always. Your buddy from NJ Gerry. Tight lines my friend
Remember when they say that brown trout do not eat in the Winter! The fat 16" brown trout would have been fun to check to see what was in the belly. A quote from the 1917-1918 Biennial Report of the State Conservation Commission of Wisconsin, "In former days, when the streams were first stocked, there was an abundance of insect life in the water upon which the trout seem to thrive and grow much faster and larger than they have been doing in the past fifteen years. At that time there were more minnows, such as shiners and other small fish that the larger trout fed upon and grew to good size." The brown trout that come out of the Waupaca Chain of Lakes into small streams to spawn in the Fall are the only inland brown trout that compare to that 16" brown trout. In the Waupaca Chain of Lakes, the Wisconsin DNR shocking crew cannot remove the crayfish and minnow like fish and other native fish so therefore the brown trout in the Waupaca Chain of Lakes still have a great food chain for big brown trout.
ive fishes for a good part of my life, i only use lures because the few times ive got a fish on hook and bait they swallow it completely. do any of you know a solution for that?
The only solution is - Don't fish. No matter which hook used, any fishing with a sharp object is hazardous to the fish. The data I am aware of on angling mortality sums up two basic high risks. #1 mortality risk is how long the fish is out of water and #2 is poor fish handling - rough handling, dry hands, etc.. There is no conclusive study of single versus treble hooks that poses any different risk based on the number of barbs. Happy fishing and do the best you can.
I do not name streams or places on Utube. Check out WI DNR maps for places you wish to fish. I primarily fish the western driftless area. Happy fishing!
I might save some of this one for morning,,am getting sleepy
Sweet dreams of trout fishing!

Thanks Gerry, i appreciate the compliment. Will do some work on casting in future videos. If ya can't cast, you can't catch trout :) Happy fishing!

Which county are you fishing in?
I do not name streams or places on Utube. Check out WI DNR maps for places you wish to fish. I primarily fish the western driftless area. Happy fishing!
Are the brook trout natural reproducing in this stream or hatchery brook trout?
Natural. Oddly enough they stock browns there. Happy fishing!
Been stocking Browns since 1972 in that water...how dumb!
