- Had this sitting in my tackle box for a long time. So exciting to catch one on it! P.S. Help with some fly fishing advice!!

Need more weight on the indicator setup. The fly should be ticking bottom. And use two flies. It doubles your hookups. Another good fly you should use is a beadhead pheasant tail or any BH mayfly. Also mend your line during your cast to keep the fly in the strike zone for the longest amount of time
Good stuff man...
I would also do a water load to cast up stream. Either a dry dropper or indicator with two nymphs
Ooooh dry dropper on that feeding brown trout. Didn't even think of that. I'll bring that setup next week and get that brown
I like to use a 1/16 oz crappie jig with a green skirt/clear tail. Tail is split in 6-8 straight tails. Just jig it like you are. Also, if any overhanging brush/limbs you can use a clear casting bobber and cast up stream and direct right under the instructions.
For us landlocked states where fresh water action is all we get, a jig head with swim bait is THE SETUP. Glad to see it in your arsenal!
Great video! I tried using a jighead with a small crappie swimbait this week. It slayed them. I was using an inline spinner and had to switch over after watching the guy next me slay them with a crappie jig set up. After i saw everyone switch over around us. I think i ended up catching about 30 stockers that afternoon in a small public pond.
All fishermen know how frustrating it is to see the fish but not able to catch it. 🐟🎣
Black Stonefly Nymph either single or double bead (depends on depth and current) with a small Prince Nymph tied on the shank with a short 6" leader. Cast as far upstream as possible to let it sink. Mend your line for a natural slow drift. Nice video as always
I’ve used Texas rigged senko worms the smallest size u can find and caught them on that love the bite!
I may be wrong but that really resembles a cut throat rainbow hybrid at about the 5 minute mark. Good fish!
My go to is usually a black fly pattern or hare's ear nymph. Good casting also!! On my roll cast I usually bring the rod tip up slower and create a D shape coming off the rod behind me. Makes for a nicer roll effect. Nice hull control as well 🤙🏽
I once caught two 17 inch trout from Calaveras creek on a spinning worm being retrieved rapidly in the same hour, I only got fish up to 14 inches by drift fishing a worm.
You should look into getting a Euro setup. Perfect for that water and deadly
My god, do my eyes deceive me?! A Fisherman's Life video!? Hell yeah! 8^)
I hope you've been well.
Man I live what you've done to the channel. We have a ranch property too and it's the best!
I'm going to bring my boys to California over Christmas break foe some fishing. Any recommendations on where some newbies could fish? I'm not a newbie to fishing, but I've never fished the California coast, only the east coast. I'm going to try for some crab snaring and it would be great to get on some rock fish from shore. I'll have my kayak with me which I've taken out on some pretty big water, but not sure I'll get it out on this trip.
Midges are typically in the water year round and an easy source of food for trout. A black bead-head zebra midge is my confidence nymph...Sizes 18-22. If the fish are taking jigs...then you could cast size 2-6 weighted streamers and get some decent action as well, especially if browns are active.
Hey Matt , I believe you had a great behind you roll.
Keep practicing, your al.ost there🎉.
I new it was a Browny .
Next time you'll get em 👍.

Fly fishing always seems much more peaceful than other methods, and it's pretty much the only way we can fish freshwater down here in NZ, the regulations are a bit tight 😅
Where are you? There's heaps of places in the North Island where you can spin or use soft plastics. Here in Northland, F&G have just switched to any method fishing including bait and an all year open season on all waters!
@@mbnz0174I'm in Auckland, and that's a big change from when I last went fresh water years ago, if we can use softies and baits I might have to start hitting the streams and lakes again! Thanks for telling me!
Get the 3 trout coloured Rapala CD5's too, you have no idea how efficient they are when you learn to use them...
Mend your line up stream less drag on a hook set
Kokanee so I assume lake run browns. Don’t forget streamers in the fly rod. If they are eating jig head swim baits they’ll eat streamers.
awesome
Matts, the only issue with your cast is the sun is on the water, you waited too late to start casting.
You have to wait longer on your backcast, you are whipping it too quickly. The line should extend fully out backwards
keep your left hand on the line at all times, don't fold it like a noob man
theres a youtube chanel called “a man and his land” the dude looks exactly like you. its freaky
that is Matts too.. lol
I don’t think the small water is right for you. I think the ocean might be calling
For roll casting you do not want your D loop on the opposite side of your body from the anchor. That fly almost clipped you a few times in the chin. Instead, if the anchor is downstream of you, form the D loop on the downstream side of your body. If you want to form the D loop on the upstream side of your body, then you need to get that fly on the upstream side of your body as well(see switch casts).
I’m not a fisherman or an outdoorsman etc., but I really love your videos!
Never too late!!!
Never too late man! I’m 24 just moved to Idaho and have been camping fishing since moving here I love this lifestyle wish I had a father that I could’ve shared it with earlier in life, butttt never to late life is full of adventures if you let yourself !
Please make your fishing videos much longer. And remember to do catch clean and cooks. God bless you and your family and remember we are here to support you!❤😮😊
Get a 9ft 3x nylon leader and add fluorocarbon tippet(4x-6x) if you're going to fly fish with an indicator. I recommend the Oros strike indicator. And invest on a good fly line.
Using soft plastics for trout is pretty common in NZ and Australia. It's a great technique!
Have you tried tenkara fly fishing? Looks like it could work well there, especially if the fish are easily spooked.
BTW swimbaits and berkley gulp minnows like that work AMAZING for trout. Small sinking jerkbaits are deadly when trout fishing. You can also experiment by using a soft plastic that imitates a small crayfish on a jighead. Good luck out there, looking forward to seeing you catch that brown! 🎣
try using swimm baits as small as possible, it will help with with the hookups. they often only attack the tails. 2,5cm to 4cm is best. the ones targeted to crappie and other sunfish work really well for me. i use them fishing small streams in germany . i caught my pb brown trout (22 inch) on a one inch curly tail . they are really cheap baits that outfish most spinners and crankbaits.
With 2 lb test, you should be using something closer to 1/32 - 1/64th oz jigs. Lighter rod and smaller bait.
❤😊😂 I'd so very happy you're back on TH-cam hear now fly fishing 🎣 🐠. 🎉I'd just hopeing praying 🙏 an I'd would love like very much .

We do hopeing praying 🙏 you's will Concerned would could will thinking about us haveing us very much please God blessing to you's family happy Marry Christmas and New Year's
jigging for trout with white tube jigs is one of my favorite ways to fish for big cutthroat in deep water. I use up too 3/4oz sometimes especially in the summer when the fish are in deep cooler water.
Man i gotta say i really do love your freshwater stuff bro
That's a beautiful area with the rocks and river. Best of luck in your new home and business.
You should feel the weight of the backcast before starting the forecast.
As far as Nymphs to use, I like starting with a weighted Hare's Ear, a Black Stonefly, a Peacock with gold bead head, or of course the egg-sucking wooly bugger is always good. Depends on your creek. Fall/Winter is a great time for minnow patterns and an excellent time for spin fishing, either a 3" scented plastic (gulp) cast upstream and drifted downstream or with a small inline spinner. Some big fish will hit in the fall.
There’s nothing like streams in the sierras. I have great memories of working my way upstream from pool to pool. Love the rocks and the smell of the pines.
Right!!!! the cold water feels so nice. I caught a beautiful 11-inch trout. I gotta say it was absolutely delicious 😋
Using softbaits as we call them in New Zealand ( swim baits) is a really popular method of catching trout.
Matt have you ever tried the trout magnet? They really cool I use them under a bobber. Try it bro
Did you wet your hands Matts? 😂😮
Yes, the jig heads with white grubs work great however the hooks are large, oriented upwards, and with a large barb. Sometimes the hook will go up through the "nose" of the fish doing damage. I always bend down the barb to minimize the potential damage. You will find the you will get tons of hits with the grubs but often they are hitting and sometimes biting the tail off. They are also great for fishing funky pockets, between rock piles, in crevices and whatnot.
Love the Stanislaus! I’ve been skunked in that spot many times. Those fish are educated.
Nice! I want to get up to your farm eventually. When you fish in the winter, use small flies like size 18 zebra midges or Hogan’s S and M nymph for BWO nymphs. Stoneflies aren’t very active in the winter until January. Another tip is if you want to keep your leader intact and fish a lot deeper, use a small size 12 swivel on the end of your leader. Then add about 3 feet of tippet. Add maybe 14 inches more tippet from the end of that to your fly. Then add the split shot above the knot to keep it from sliding down. Also if you do those big overhead cast with the indicator rig, then you will get tangled a ton. Instead use a Belgian cast or the water load which is where you let the fly swing downstream (you might get a strike here) and use the friction of the water to shoot the line upstream in one cast. And if you want a longer drift, feed line out by throwing it downstream and across in the same lane as your indicator to avoid drag. Winter is tough, but at least there’s almost no one out there either!
Brown rubber legs fly
Anything above a 1/8 oz jig is too heavy for trout most of time.
2-3" group of minnow with a jig will work.
2lb is unnecessarily light 4lb to 6lb is fine.
As far as fly, you must use tippet. Even when using 9ft leader you still want 3-4ft of tippet. 5x for both.
The least amount of gear on tour line as possible. If your going to use an indicator try a white cloth.
And better to use a bead head.
C&R only handle your trout above water. Wet your hands 1st.
Trout can't breath unless water is moving through its gills.
Fly roll casting, leave the line in the water and use the weight of it to load the rod in an arcing move. You never casted to the other side of the scum line and maybe that's where they were?
I've fly fished for 30 years and would have flogged that water with everything in my kit BUT in the last 5-6 years after watching you and Adam surf fish I've come around and now will carry a second spin rod. Learning from your experience here swim baits are to be added to my arsenal. Love the Okuma SST, I use it for surf and Salmon. Dude, youre doing good.
Man I miss fishing the streams up here in the North State, butte creek, and the feather river are in my neighborhood. I’ve had GREAT luck fishing butte creek, feather river not so much.
I LOVE your videos but please work on fish handling, it's bad when you promote these videos because people think what you are doing is ok!
Yea Boy
Keep on living the dream Matt.
In New Zealand we don’t call them swim baits we call them softbaits your the first person in the US I’ve use them they are deadly keep using them
Try matching the hatch when you go fly fishing again look around for any signs of bugs and critters that match your flys but when all else fails i love using the black wooly bugger, it mimicks a hellgrammite wich trout love , or use the good ol rooster tail spinner on a ultralight spinning rod, red n black or the original color are my picks , the original color has a green feather skirt and a green n orange body with a gold blade hope this helps man and I enjoy your videos there very entertaining! 🤘🎣
Hey Matt, Another great video! I have just one question and it doesn’t even have to do with fishing, what kind of shoes are you wearing in this video? I have been looking for a good pair of hi top hiking/athletic shoes to wear fishing and those look like they just that.
If you dont know what to use as a fly, flip over some rocks near the bank or see what's actually flying around. And tie something on that looks similar.
planning on coming up next year in summer for my birthday, really excited. already practicing my flyfishing.
berky atomic tubes grasshopper trying. your welcome. trout fishing wont be the same. I promise you.
twitching jigs are better trust me i make my own what with brown color that works in wa for you go a little darker
1. Cast on your right (downstream)side.
2. Cast further upstream.
Yo matt, fun fact. My wife used to think you were me in the videos lol, and I let her think that for a while until she realized it haha. Be careful with the scissors bro.
I’d love to fish some of the American national parks one day
That’s what I always say about my lures “that looks deadly” then proceed to catch nothing 😂
try a Worden's rooster tail! hot reds ' purple, white, black, clown,
Like and enjoy 👍🫶🎣🫶👍
Greetings from Germany 👍🫶🎣🫶👍
First rule of fly fishing, its a strike indicator not a bobber. Said in a snarky voice of course.
17 inches? Not a chance. That first fish barely breaks 12 inches tops.
What microphone are you using - DJI ?
I've caught trout with bass tackle, dropshots and Ned rigs
try a small jig head and grub/tubes that you use for crappies to fish for them trouts on the spinning rod.
I wouldn’t use a split shot if I were you I would just use a sinking line. Much easier
I never watch but its red out like i did.... dang hacker, really y is it red i was saving this....
So glad you are posting regularly again bro!
Casting out 1/32 size hookup baits on 2lb mono is also a killer for trout!
Check out addicteds videos on twitching for trout, that looks like great water for it
Go visit the guys at Sonora Fly Company ask them about a dropper set up
You should get a net for trout fishing, the less handling the fish receive the better the odds are for survival
Gotta float some artificial eggs it’s spawning time for trout steelhead and salmon
Trik mantap mancing di sungai 👍
A good fly to try is called royal coachman .they have tem in Canada, maybe usa
Let the fly drift into pools of water and drift inflict of and behind big rocks
If .you are going to release learn how. Those fish are going to die anyway.
If it’s catch and release only, just go barbless
Civilization is overrated?!
Are those scissors having off your neck lol
No need for more baits or indicators,we just need more videos please
Really small feather jigs should work good.
Woolybuggers are the real deal man. Give them a try buddy
Are you gonna stock your pond with trout?
Bro, I highly recommend trying out some trout bfs gear! You’d kill it out there and have an absolute blast using it! 🙌🙌🙌
Beaded wooly bugger in black or white, these are the go to.
Watching all the way from south Africa
Another thing I love using for trout is the white tube jig it slays
I think amber lens sunglasses would help.
That trout looks like it would be so good cooked on a stick over the fire
Catch and cook is more exciting. Please
What kind of spining Rod and reel are you using 👍
You can always add a tippet to your leader to make it longer
Nice job. Try a small black leech looking jig.
Looked like you was swatting bees.😀
