I’m glad you ended the skunk streak and had a great day on the big river. Wet day but full of hook-ups. Last few fish were absolute chrome, must of just came in. Well done, Bill.
Nice fish bill, went 13 for 16 today with some big ones mixed in. Fish where tuff to get bite at first until I moved down closer to the mouth and ran into fresher fish than it was on fire for the last few hours of the day
Bill: Thanks for the prompt reply. I have the Okuma Aventa and the Raw-II, it was suggested that instead of spending $450.00 on an Islander or Kingpin that I buy ABEC -7 Bearings and it spins FOREVER! They make a big difference for $17.00 dollars on e-bay. You may like it. Annular Bearing Engineers' Committee sets the standard. The ceramic replacements are the best! Good luck, Regards, Timothy.
Nice trip Bill some quality fish,I fished farther upstream yesterday with my boys we had a couple hook ups but nothing landed. It was a short trip they didn't last long with all the rain lol
All the o tribs have been on 🔥 with the rain weve been getting. I mean ive just been slammin em. Consistent hookups .... sometimes back to back... went 7 for 13 other day... all big chrome except for 1 brown
wow that looked like fun, always nice when the fish are biting consistently in one hole the entire day. Also, to fix the audio on your gopro you can try to do a factory reset (swipe down on screen, hit preferences, hit reset, then factory reset) or it may need an update (swipe down on screen, hit preferences, hit about, hit gopro updates). Make sure to remove SD card to avoid losing footage. It may work it may not, but its worth a try👍
thanks man ✌️had to work for them but every time i was ready to move another fish would bite 😁 i did a factory reset still wouldnt work then i plugged the camera into my pc to fully charge battery and it got hot and died completely - got to get new camera 😒
Good video the skunk is gone what lb test is your main line and what brand I like the yellow you can see it thanks steelies are just starting in rivers as far as creeks go there dry a trickle.of water sucks
Yeah the skunk streak ended.right along mine. In the pouring rain I lost 10 and landed a nice 26 inch hen. Persistence paid off . Let's see how long your new no skunkin streak will go. No skunkin oh yeah
Hey Bill. How's it going. How's Burt looking. I was told they got the dam working again. I hope it gets the fish moving back up there this year. It's been a hard couple of years up there. Good luck this year buddy. I look forward to seeing your videos every year in NY and Erie.
Too bad those cameras dont exactly agree with poor weather. I tried filming a hunt once in bitter cold, nope, no good. Good day of steelheading for you though. Good luck in the future.
Hey I’m new to trout/steelhead. I just came across your channel and live in right in the same city. Anyway do you have any how to videos? I’ve been out three times to Catt and buff creek by myself and not so much as a noble. Thanks!
Hi Bill. You are a great angler and so is your son. One question? We are going to Cattaragus creek for the weekend, do we have to pay the entrance to the river, or how? Regards, Deni
Well Bill, looks like another excellent day of fishing! Video is excellent also. You have probably noticed that only the big ones will run upstream and still give you a battle! That one was truly a beast. I would like to ask, what reel do you match with your Riversider rod? Regards, Timothy.
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures Thanks Bill I figure maybe around 7 grams.. not an exact science I guess and this will allow the weight of a jig without being too much for the float. PS Dont retire lol
Looked like that was a giant washington strain steelheadDoesn't quite look like a domestic To me but could be..... did he fight like a domestic? Looks totally like our washington strain from my experience. Usually not to hard to tell. He was pretty damn fresh also.
Ur voice with that song great ending. Ive learned alot over the years from you and enjoyed the ride more than any other channel. Thanks

Bill, I have to say that was the thickest steelhead I've seen in a while!
You had a good workout, don't forget your proteins! :)))
Thanks, will do!✌️
Great video and an epic day of fishing. Somebody send this man a camera. I need more videos 😂

thanks man 👍i replaced my bearings twice already with cermanics / boca bearings i think i might upgrade to a larger 5" kingpin kinetic for 300 bucks
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures :5 incher would be so sweet! Good luck with the purchase. That is an excellent price for a Kingpin!
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventuresI agree .. bigger spool definitely helps with line gain especially in the larger streams
Great day for you on the river Bill! Hope to get into some myself this weekend
thanks man ✌️good luck
Nice video Bill! No skunkn🚫🦨 Hope to see ya out on the water soon.. tight lines🤙🏽

Going tuesday with my pops. Their throughout the river now so itll be nice to get to some holes with no guys around.
good luck - they're pretty spread out now from what i hear

Hoping to hit some Erie tribs end of this week for the first time in a few years. Been skunked on trout since last November.
thats a long time 😒good luck
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures agreed. Way over due!
Good job Mike! What happened to the Black F? DON'T RETIRE!!!
thanks - be putting that to use soon 👍✌️
Hey Bill. How's it going. How's Burt looking. I was told they got the dam working again. I hope it gets the fish moving back up there this year. It's been a hard couple of years up there. Good luck this year buddy. I look forward to seeing your videos every year in NY and Erie.
i have not been there yet ✌️ thanks -- some guys i know made a video of burt yesterday heres a link - th-cam.com/video/v6plLevdyxc/w-d-xo.html
Looking good. Where are the salmon?
thanks ✌️next week going
Nice video and great fish. Wondered what float that is you’re using? Nice and tall top
thanks man ✌️not sure of the brand - i think it may have been done locally bought it at captain bobs outdoors
Too bad those cameras dont exactly agree with poor weather. I tried filming a hunt once in bitter cold, nope, no good. Good day of steelheading for you though. Good luck in the future.
thanks man ✌️
Hey I’m new to trout/steelhead. I just came across your channel and live in right in the same city.
Anyway do you have any how to videos? I’ve been out three times to Catt and buff creek by myself and not so much as a noble. Thanks!
i might but havnt done any recently - buffalo is early yet but the catt is good if you fish the faster moving water
Hi Bill. You are a great angler and so is your son. One question? We are going to Cattaragus creek for the weekend, do we have to pay the entrance to the river, or how? Regards, Deni
we're just average anglers 🤣i never paid for entrance but you need a ny or sn license depending on where you fish
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures I would fish from Gowanda up I wouldn't go to Indian Territory
Great video and sick fish!! Question- what brand of split shot do you use? Thanks!!
thanks man ✌️i think it was raven shot
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures thanks! I have never had a day like that in my life. Most I have landed was 3 -
Well Bill, looks like another excellent day of fishing! Video is excellent also. You have probably noticed that only the big ones will run upstream and still give you a battle! That one was truly a beast. I would like to ask, what reel do you match with your Riversider rod? Regards, Timothy.
Thanks 👍that was a real battle ✌️ i use the okuma sheffield but thinking of upgrading soon
Nice catches Bill and great video. Thank you for showing your set up.
For a 9 gram float do you know how many grams of splitshot total you use?
thanks man ✌️ not sure of the grams of shot i just keep adding to the floats balanced
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures Thanks Bill I figure maybe around 7 grams.. not an exact science I guess and this will allow the weight of a jig without being too much for the float.
PS Dont retire lol
👍👍😁
Hey bill how did you cure the eggs in this video?
the natural ones i stream harden then salt cure - the red were just putski's
That's at least 10lbs. Nice fish. The local tribs?
thanks 👍
What river or state you are fishing for these steelhead?
NY
Hey man, congrats, love your videos. Do you prefer egg sacs over skein for steelhead?
thanks ✌️i only use sacks - skein gunks up everything
Looked like that was a giant washington strain steelheadDoesn't quite look like a domestic To me but could be..... did he fight like a domestic? Looks totally like our washington strain from my experience. Usually not to hard to tell. He was pretty damn fresh also.
probably was a washington the way it fought but the girth was ridiculous
Maybe that line hi vis green not yellow lol
✌️
@BillMikesAnglingAdventures I bought 10lb test same.color that's really nice off the center pin
Tie a snell knot will improve with a lot more hookups
👍👍
Where are you at, approximately?
NY
Hey Bill, out of curiosity, what size hook are you running? Great video as always. Tight lines!
thanks ✌️i'm pretty sure it was a size 10
Gotta turn that clicker off when ur fighting em!
lol 🤣 casting too
Thanks for another great video, nice looking fish. What camera do you use, my go pro 8 black
died after using it once.
thanks man 👍 i got the same camera - i think it finally died
Tie a snell knot will improve with a lot more hookups
👍👍i heard that before but i have a hard time tying those on the water
