Big Bear Lake CA - Fishing Tactics for Rainbow Trout

Fishing in Big Bear Lake CA is always a blast! I've never caught more than one fish from a boat while fishing Big Bear Lake, but this day would prove to be quite different! Come along with me on my fishing journey to catch more fish, learn, and have fun!

You do any fishing from the shore?

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Yes 🤙 Up by the North Shore I’ve caught some nice Trout.

Dang My Boy, a catfish on a Boo-Yont....Thomas would be proud!

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Thanks man! 😂 I thought for sure I had a Trout 😂😂. Mr. Thomas would be very honored! Appreciate the comment! Have a good week 🤙❤️🎣

Really nice sesh Tim🤙🏽

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Thanks Juan! Surprising cat catch 🤙👊😂

[@Andrespapa426]

@@ReelTimeWithTimmThat was a great catch, I was hoping you'd get a Big Bear record breaking trout but that cat was a surprise.

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

@@Andrespapa426 thanks bro! I’ve fished big bear from shore whenever I could go (usually once or twice a year). My biggest trout was about a 5 lber from north shore a few years back. Going out on a boat has helped me build my confidence in targeting Trout! Bunch of small ones, but no skunk!

@@ReelTimeWithTimm Nice brother I limited out but released due to the distance from home. I'd like to float tube it one day.

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Great catches bro! I’m usually more catch and release but not with baits! Lures for sure, but most definitely helping others with chances to catch by releasing fish! Thanks for the positive and hope your fish soon 🤙

What was the set up on the first rod you used? powerbait with a slider weight?

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Carolina rig with 1/4 oz weight, swivel, & treble hook. Good luck out there🤙👍🏻

MY BOYEEEEEE

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Yes sir 🤙😂

[@arthurlandsford1825]

Can you keep trout alive in a live well? Used to be a huge ticket my boy.

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

Hey Arthur! Yes, I believe you can. I posed the question to a buddy and he thought it was okay too. Thanks though, appreciate it!!

[@thomasflores7817]

@@ReelTimeWithTimmast time I checked the regs they said it was illegal to keep a trout in a living state, so im not sure about that one 🤷‍♂️

[@ReelTimeWithTimm]

@@thomasflores7817 nice. Thanks for info. Do you reckon why? Do you think it’s to protect against using Trout as live bait? Just curious. Thanks!
