HONESTLY ....... THIS IS THE BEST tutorial or guide or whatever the heck you wan't to call it that I have seen ANYONE on youtube do...... the way you explain how to do things is SUUUUPERRR SIMPLE, you are not using any "fishing terms" which people who are new to fishing may not know about.... you are simply explaining how to do something in its MOST SIMPLE FORM, which I TRULY respect you for!!!.. this is the best guide or tutorial on youtube BY FAR that explains to someone who is new to center pin fishing, on how they can effectively go out and have fun learning and progressing. Truly awesome.
This is angling in its purest form... Once mastered, this fishing method out produces any other set up, including fly fishing. It's the only way to effectively present a bait to fish holding in fast or slow moving pools alike. Great post Captain !
Great video! To really get distance, assuming you have more weight, side casting how can I make sure lay my line out on the water straight and not tangle? This is the problem I have with distance side casting and being consistent.
This is so true. Have you ever tried p-line's "hydrofloat"? It's a unique coated superline made specifically for centrepin float fishing. It's kind of "papery", stiff but not in the way that mono is, more like, well, paper. Because of this it doesn't tip wrap as much and when it does it's easier to fix, and it doesn't twist as much when side casting. Very very good line, but still has some issues.
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I'm new to center pin fishing and stunk my first 3-4 times out casting. After watching this and using this style, I've been able to consistently cast 50-55 feet NO BIRDS NEST! No I just gotta figure out what to do when I catch a fish. I haven't experienced that yet. Any tips???
Its not as hard as you think, I bought my first set up put it back in the car after 20 minutes. Went on a guided trip asked the guide to only bring his pins. He gave me a crash course my very first drift I figured it out before he knew it set hook played fish and he netted it. He said you have done this before. Yes with spinning gear and a fly rod. Just use your fingers as your drag.
Hey Martin, It will the job done, but might not be ideal. The action of a float-fishing rod is closer to a spinning rod than a fly rod, and the 7-weight might prove to be a little heavy, depending on whether you're targeting stream trout, or lake-run brown trout and steelhead. For a reel, Okuma makes a couple centerpins at affordable prices, with the Raw II and Aventa, which are great reels to get started float fishing with. -Jimmy Fee
Trotting is when you hold back the rig as it drifts a bit. Many fishermen will "check" the float, popping it backwards briefly to make sure the hook and bait are the first thing to reach the fish. This also helps get the line off the water to make sure it's not dragging the float.
Dude, for the life of me I can NOT get the shot trail down. When I think I have it set up perfectly, I'll bring a wild mess of knots back in every cast. Any tips?
On the smaller rivers, where the trout are good deal smaller than the lake-run steelhead and browns, Joe uses regular float rods to better match the fish. When I fished with him, I used a 9-foot noodle rod with a centerpin, and it was perfect for the Farmington River browns. - Jimmy Fee

confused.. i picked it up a year ago and it is absolutely nasty.. I just upgraded my reel but you said as long as your hand is off the side of the reel you can fish? i thought you needed to have a finger or so on the reel to feather it even when you cast to control the reel from the spooling? i get tangled every 5-10 casts now and i’m thinking maybe this is the reason. I also have read the side cast is bad for the longevity of the reel/line but i see so many guys show it and it’s usually what i do
The side cast twists the line pretty badly, so you'll need to replace it more often, but it's easier to pick up than the Wallis Cast, which requires you to get the reel spinning as you swing the rod to feed the line to the float while it's in the air. Takes a little coordination, but it's fairly easy to pick up with some practice. Side-casting has no effect on the reel though.
@@OnTheWaterMedia okay thanks so much for getting back to me even when i do an over hand cast and spin that reel a little i will get caught along with the reel itself. I’m thinking maybe i’m putting too much pressure on the reel and spinning it too much and so when i stop it is coming off easier and gets sloppy and then gets caught
Sincerely! There is a huge issue. Is the reel in the film, right or left handed? Or can it just be rotated? Does crackling work in two directions? Please help! Thanks.
Can you share what rods you are using? Most centerpin rods seem to be made for salmon and steelhead so I was wondering if you guys scale down for trout.
I’ll give you some options since I have myself a centerpin specifically for just stocked trout. There’s a lot of preferences guys prefer. Anywhere from an 8ft-12ft for trout. I prefer a 9’6”. I know a ton of guys that like a 10’6” as their preferred choice. My 9’6” is just an okuma celilo light action. But I’ve used my medium light riversider 11ft rod for trout as well. Awesome rod for the money! I know blood run makes a 10’6” rod for mini centerpins for trout. But you can also just go with a standard crappie noodle rod and it’ll get the job done just as good and it’s very cost efficient. I own a mini pin or “pinland” that Danny Colville makes but there are other options that you can get other than a Colville reel. I’ve seen kingpin make a mini pin and they are fantastic reels!
As a fly angler, I don't mind centerpin anglers--I just hate when they think they own the whole damn river. The amount of times I'll be fishing a stretch of water and will see one of their bobbers float right past me is ridiculous.
I agree. I prefer to spin out the line first, letting it collect directly under me, then cast out. This completely eliminates line twist and gets me out to where the drift is...
Chris Stapleton, Zach Bryan, Eric Church and Luke Combs for sure. Sunny Sweeney, Tyler Childers, Colter Wall, Jamie Johnson, Willi Carlisle, Ryan Bingham, Nick Shoulders, Tift Merritt, Charles Wesley Godwin, and last but not least Cody Jinks round out a modern day top ten for me.

Anything outproduces fly fishing. Fly fishing is the hardest form of fishing, that’s why I love it.
@@patio87bet I can catch more fish in a pin than you can with a fly

Great video,🇨🇮🇨🇮
That's really cool, I've never seen this before watching some pautzke bait vids and had to look this up... Thanks for the tutorial. New subscriber...
Hi, thank you for the tutorial. Could explain the reasoning behind keeping the line running through your hand out to the side?
Beautiful stretch of water and perfect for the pin
Great video.
So make a spinning reel with you hand as the rod guide?
Can’t control line like you can on pin with a spinning reel
I could do same with my ultralight set up? What's difference?
Great video. Try a Wallis cast alot less line twosts

3 or 2 finger cast -- no line twist
Great casts!
This is very interesting. Wonder if you could do this type of fishing with just a fly? But I guess not.
You can definitely fish a nymph under a float this way. Egg-imitating beads are a very popular presentation while float fishing
Re-watch the video from 55 sec to 1: 10..
Its very interested to know your opinion about Redband centerpin bait-casting reel.)))
Lemparan yang bagus🎣🎣

Can you fish without a bobber with a centerpin set-up?
Where did you get the reel and rod from and how much was it
I have a 7wt 11' Switch rod (fly rod), could I use this for centerpin fishing? Is there a recommended reel that works well? Thanks!

what is that split grip pin rod? I kinda love it.

whats trotting? is it important to drag the float back as you drift to get the bait to the fish instead of the lead
Trotting is when you hold back the rig as it drifts a bit. Many fishermen will "check" the float, popping it backwards briefly to make sure the hook and bait are the first thing to reach the fish. This also helps get the line off the water to make sure it's not dragging the float.

Are those just regular float rods with a center pin reel attached? Awesome!

@@OnTheWaterMedia Great, can't wait! Thanks a ton.
Where’s the big Skamania steelhead clunkers we get over here in Michigan?
How much line you go through a year? You don't wallis cast

@@Fishingrunner , Greetings. What is the weight of the rods you use for trout fishing?
As a fly angler, I don't mind centerpin anglers--I just hate when they think they own the whole damn river. The amount of times I'll be fishing a stretch of water and will see one of their bobbers float right past me is ridiculous.
Really hate when fly fishers sight fish and snag I have a whole fly shop in flys I have removed from the backs of steelhead over the past 35 years
They should not do that! Everyone needs to share..... I'm a pin head and respect others!
@@Rbbats1996 well at least we hook them in the mouth and not in the back belly find tail
Do any Center pins come with a drag?
I believe there are some, but fighting the fish and applying the "drag" yourself is part of the fun of fishing a centerpin.
Cara lemparnya gimana sih!
I see people saying the reel will cast and air break to keep from back lashing. Cast one hand.
tippet? its actually called a Leader lol....., you dont drift pass the other angler?, you def. havent fished ONTARIO lol......
U don’t know what a tippet is?
Problem with that way of casting is line twist..
I agree.
I prefer to spin out the line first, letting it collect directly under me, then cast out.
This completely eliminates line twist and gets me out to where the drift is...
2:40 is all you need. thanks
Shades of Izaak Walton,gotta get an outfit,thanks.
She's gonna kill me.
Side casting is awful. Lots of line twist.
It is, but for a newbie centerpinner, it's the easiest way to get it out there.

float not a bobber
