I always try to do that however as you can see in some of my videos I often forget to do that just because I’m so excited about the catch. I’ve been trying to get better about fish handling

It’s not the fly choice that’s causing me the problems, it’s just being able to get the fly in front of the fish without spooking them

@@mpfishing5530I have the same problem when I fish spring creeks

Unfortunately I’m a little limited because of my equipment. My only rod is a 7’6” 6wt which is amazing for small spring creeks and dry flies but it’s less than ideal for nymphing. I have a 9’5” 5wt but I don’t have line for it yet

@@mpfishing5530 Let me know if you want to fish big water...we can drift the Yough in Western PA...streamers in the fall...you will need a heavier rod than a 5wt...

@@jerrystebbins8550 if your being serious I’ll keep it in mind

You can go ahead and name it if you want to try and guess. Not too concerned about spot burning it because obviously it’s hard to catch them, and in general it just needs more awareness and recognition so with all problems facing it the creek can be protected

@@mpfishing5530 Falling spring branch?

@@Lucas-zk3zp yep. Absolute nightmare to fish especially in the summer when the weed growth is this high, only time I do well In the upper section is in the evening on dry flies or I get lucky in the middle of the day like I did in this video

@@connoreilersuncut huge difference between saltwater and freshwater buddy

@@mpfishing5530 The only difference is salt 😂😂

@@connoreilersuncut exactly my point. The biggest fish you can catch out of a tiny freshwater creek like this is under 30 inches long. This was an above average trout for stream I was fishing. Obviously in saltwater fish grow bigger. Smaller doesn’t mean easier, google LeTort Spring Run and then try to tell me fishing a waterway of that caliber is easy

@@mpfishing5530 who gaf 😂😂 its not panama

@@connoreilersuncut I’m sure you and your 3 subscribers are feeling reel good about yourselves right now. Just go fishing and chill out bro. It’s not that deep

So you do more fishing videos than that?

I had it cranked down pretty good too… smallies just fight so hard

Three pounder

@@mpfishing5530 great fish very fat keep it up

TH-cam shorts have a time limit of 60 seconds. Not enough time to do that here, in the full length video linked below the title of this video you can see the full catch and more

Yep

@@mpfishing5530 I was out a couple weeks ago and got a 17 and my boss got a 19

I’ve never had much luck in Michaux at least for bigger fish, I’ve caught a few over 7 inches and seen some that were pretty big but in general the fishing seems tougher there than other areas

If you know where the second one is, you probably know the first one as well. Their headwaters are literally less than 2 miles apart, they just flow in opposite directions

High chance of gut hooking them and killing them with that. Unfortunately most of the trout populations today are in poor shape compared to what they used to be and can’t sustain much, if any, harvest so using barbless lures or flies are the move if you plan on releasing them

​@@mpfishing5530i use small jigs and 1/2" curly tails with crimped hooks and very light line and minimal drag, works excellent
