Fishing with a friend is all ways a good time . You proved that there are nice Trout in this creek . A long with other species . Bloody-well going Leo , and yer friend 1 Rod too. Tom Daytona Beach, FL. 7, August 2021 .
I love your passion and your knowledge! I have learned so much from you and you have helped fuel a passion I've always had for micro fishing. If you ever come into western MD and eastern/ northern WV let me know I'd love to spend a time fishing and learning from you in person.
Just ordered some EPF Swims... only color available is purple though. Can't wait for the white and green pumpkin to be back in stock. Definitely getting those.
Looks like a great day of fishing, nice work ! Had a decent multi species session in the Musconetcong River today, 8 Largemouth bass, 1 yellow perch, 1 black crappie, 1white perch.
Congrats on the variety. Great brookie! But really like that cutlips. Haven't caught one yet. Seems more like a chance encounter if you are in a creek that has them versus a fish that you could selectively target.
have you tried fishing at: rolling hill park in lower merion if you park near the mill and go around the fence or park uphill and hike down, there are white sucker, rainbow, and brown trout and more. I recommend it, it is a small creek with some deep pools.
I've never seen a yellow perch outta my local patapsco river either, but sure enough I also hooked one just yesterday. Must be a reallllly good yellow perch year, idk
You guys are an excellent duo despite being very different fishermen. You should reinforce your chemistry and expand your fishing horizons by fishing other parts of the U.S or even international ventures.
@1Rod1ReelFishing and Leo, on the next collab you both should go out of your element and switch rods and tackle. Leo, target mondos and Mike can target micros. What do you say?!
I need some help understanding why I can't get any fish of any species of bite. I throw everything but the kitchen sink right in front of fish. But they all seem to have lock jaw. I even did some traveling to some new locations I've never been before to see if that helps. Nothing. I fish streams, creeks, rivers, locks and dam, ponds and lakes. What am I doing wrong. At this point I don't care what I catch as long as it's a fish. I need to find a way to draw the fish in from a distance. Since I'm stuck on the banks.
Holy crap, cutlips minnows get that big?? 😳 ive only seen small ones. Also Mike needs to calm down with his hook sets when creek fishing. Hes too used to setting the hook on a bass. Trout is more of a twitch than a yank of the pole. 😁
Man am going through some s:hit mom haves stage 3 cancer and dealing with eviction is on the way... it is snowing like crazy snow storm and people hate it but I'm thankful cuz due to it we can stay for a couple more days but the only thing that seems to Help are your videos leo
Leo, it is great that you promote safe fish handling, but putting a Brook Trout in the bucket or livewell before releasing isn't setting the best example, in my opinion. Those fish should be kept in the river water where there is more oxygen and released as soon as possible. I don't see the need to keep a fish for longer than unhooking and a quick photo if you are releasing it. Still a great video and a nice fish though!
_"I don't see the need to keep a fish for longer than unhooking and a quick photo if you are releasing it."_ Verstehen. I am both a TH-camr and a scientist -- therefore, I always have the need to keep fish outside of the water for prolonged periods of time -- for the job (footage & sketches), and for my logs. Hence the photo tanks and the foldable buckets. Plus, when it comes to stocked Trout, I always keep tabs on length and weight for nice samples that I catch out there. That's just for my personal log. That being said, your opinion has been read.
@@extremephillyfishing thanks for your reply. I understand that you keep more detailed data on fish than most and increased handling is required. When it comes to what's best for the fish, releasing it as fast as possible is the top priority, but I understand you are juggling other things as well. Tight lines!
Damn, I wish those lures and gear would be available here in europe. As Finnish I order from german Amazon since we don't have one but it's still free shipping if you go over a certain amount. That's cool but they rarely have US cottage industry stuff there. You would think Daiwa or Shimano but nah bro. No Sedona FI 500, only 1000 and above. No Spinmatic rods or the lines you use.
Dont take your time with trout like that! Its not enough to keep them healthy when youre putting them on a dry measuring board and taking pics. Fish could go belly up from stress and you wouldnt even know because you moved spots. You need to work on that dude! 14 seconds is all it takes to show signs of impairment from oxygen loss. Regardless if stockers, show others how to PROPERLY handle trout.
First and foremost, the measuring ruler wasn't dry. I actually wetted the ruler well before measuring the fish. I always wet my hands before handling them as well, as far as I CPR it. Second -- I am glad that you follow the 15 seconds rule that fly anglers do. Please do tell which part of the video has the fish outside of the water for a moment HIGHER than 15 seconds? The scene that I measure it, the fish was outside of the water for about 15 seconds tops. And I constantly splashed more water into the live well while handling the Trout to keep it cool and keep the oxygen there, in between the sketches. I understand your concern for the well-being of the fish. I truly do. And I commend you if you are a CPR angler who catches the fish and releases it immediately. After all, that's how it is supposed to be. Needless to say, my live well is there to give the fish the oxygen that it requires while I handle it -- be it a Trout, a Bass, a Sunfish, or whichever other species. Food for thought: If one is SO CONCERNED about the well-being of the stocked Trout to begin with, taking it to be a SUPER SENSITIVE species of fish, then here is my advice for such individual: leave it alone. Don't target it at all. Especially during the Summer, when water temperatures are higher. After all, from the moment that you hook the Trout and you play it, you are depleting its energy source and making it create lactic acid, which leads to blood acidification.
@@extremephillyfishing i dont mean to seem rude. Just little mistakes can kill fish. Just making sure youre doing everything right. Preserving the spots for others with 100 percent successful CnR rate.
No worries, FlyGuy. No meanness was taken whatsoever. Just replying with some science, as I always do. There is no such thing as a 100% successful C&R rate. One can only make certain decisions to minimize the harm that fishing gives to the fish. By doing this job itself -- the TH-cam gig, I am already putting extra stress on ALL FISHES portrayed on ALL MY TH-cam VIDEOS. This is a FACT. It is what it is. Whatever I do in my videos nowadays, though -- I try my best to not give any of those fishes any permanent damage in the long term. I would like to use this moment to also emphasize that 95% of my annual catches are released immediately after unhooking them. In other words, the following should know by HEART that the ones portrayed on the Channel are the ones that are paying the PRICE for people's entertainment out there. Does it sound bad? Absolutely. But it is the bare truth. Which is why I emphasized above that the best possible thing for all fishes out there, if one is concerned to SUCH EXTENT (i.e. 100% survival ratio), is to not target them at all.
@@extremephillyfishing i fish barbless, and dont even take them out the rubber net, while both gills are FULLY submerged. All my fish are extremely healthy lol. None die. You can tell if the fish is stressed from a long fight, if that happens, you can revive the fish in current. Im sure i'll kill ONE fish eventually, but im more than careful with them
I cringe every time Leo reels against the drag. That is the best way to get massive line twist. You're your reeling, but not winding line onto the reel, just twisting and twisting and twisting...
@@extremephillyfishing whoa! Never expected a reply from The Man himself! My brothers and I have been watching your stuff for years! We're also from the area. Love the content and seeing you fish many of our childhood spots. Brings back a lot of memories especially now that I've moved across the state. About the line twist though - c'mon, you're a man of science and physics. If your line isn't coming in(or isn't coming in a fast as it should be) because of the drag, and the bail keeps spinning around and around, what's happening? It's putting extra twists in the line. Just Google "reeling against the drag" - but i digress. I really love the content of your channel. I especially like the family outings. There are many other channels out there, but I always come back to EPF (and 1R1R). Your content is relatable that anyone with a fishing rod and an afternoon can replicate - not everyone has $100k to spend on a bass boat, haha. Stay safe! Looking forward to the next video.

You are not just a fisherman but a fish advocate. Educating people about native fish and how to protect them.
You and 1Rod need to go back to Florida again! Canals...jetty action. LFG!
Fishing with a friend is all ways a good time . You proved that there are nice Trout in this creek . A long with other species . Bloody-well going Leo , and yer friend 1 Rod too. Tom Daytona Beach, FL. 7, August 2021 .
Brook trout is definitely one of the most beautiful trout, especially when they get mating colors.
Nice video. Just a nice, no nonsense, fun day of messing around on a river.
Love to see the new flurry of videos!
The boyz are back in town!
Nice Brookie!!! I have a few small hole right by my house in Vermont, but the brookies are all like 4-6 inchers.
The Schuylkill River Sentinels at it again 😎🐟♻️
Absolutely love the educational aspect of your videos!
Love your video...like when u and Mike pair up...Great vid guys!!
Good to see that fallfish seem to be thriving in your area. Nice brookie Leo.
Thank you, Bill! I was delighted to see it as well.
That seemed to be a fun day!
It was great, Ben! Any day on the water nowadays beats a day at the office. Lol. Hang in there, Bro!

I would love to see more adventures with 1rod1reel. Keep it up Leo!
Will do, Fisherman 83. 😎 Thanks for watching!

Y'all lit them up !When it's on it's on!😄🤙
I remember watching a video on a different channel...Outdoor boys...and Tommy kept pushing his cameras down...it was pretty funny...

Good day on the water

ITs ok we dont mind when youre elseepy like a big mouth esleeper. All jokes aside; keep grinding bro! Youre killin it!
Crazy...in June while at my grandparents house I went here on a whim and caught a mega trout...

I laughed so hard 🤣😂☠ Mike is hilarious!
Lessssgooooo!!
My king
Love your videos bro
Glad to hear that you enjoy them, Sanchez! Thanks for watching.
Sounds like 1rod needs to brush up on species identification. EPF swim put in the work that day.
Nice
And, do you have a particular retrieve for the EF swim?
😂😂😂 some people cant fish. "Wasnt a good stock"
Hey, were you guys just wading with your street shoes?
EPF where to get those mini candle like aerator? I love you I don't know you but I feel like I do.
haha bro nice
I love you and all of your videos. I have been following for ages but please just get a net lol
Glad to hear that you enjoy the creations on the Channel, J Strads! As for the net, I have plenty of them at home. 😎
Fishing for trout/panfish do you prefer 1 piece or 2 piece rod??
I'm not much of an EPF viewer because of what he fishes for even though I love his video. But you haaaave to watch the Collabs with 1R1R
You guys are an excellent duo despite being very different fishermen. You should reinforce your chemistry and expand your fishing horizons by fishing other parts of the U.S or even international ventures.

how do you tell its a brook trout not a brown trout? they dont look like search engine pictures
10:51 hmmm.....does he watch the same videos as I do? cuz all the people mentioned in this video I subscribed to a few months ago....
Holy crap, cutlips minnows get that big?? 😳 ive only seen small ones.
Also Mike needs to calm down with his hook sets when creek fishing. Hes too used to setting the hook on a bass. Trout is more of a twitch than a yank of the pole. 😁
YO WTF I FISH AT THAT SPOT ALL THE TIME
Me too. I was just north of this spot about 5 days ago!

Yoooo
What’s up Leo, you meet my best friends the other day at the Oreland Quarry
Same as always, Mitch. Fishing, working, and grinding! That's what's up, Bro...that day the fishing was tough at the Quarry. Lol.
