Wow, recognized Piru Creek instantly. I'm 76 now and used to fish there in my thirties and forties when we lived in the San Fernando valley. They stocked it in those days.
@@theu.s.ofangling1344 im from fillmore and just started fishing piru lake , ive been told its been about 15 years since the last stock here. they always stock castaic lake
Fished Piru often in the 70s. At Frenchmans and also downstream near the old Blue Point Campground up from Lake Piru. We would hike up to Ellis Apiary and the gorge. Some true wilderness and good trout and bass fishing near where Fish Creek pours in. Nasty little black flies are a beech. Thanks for stirring up the memories.
1. I been fishing this creek and up stream for over 45 years,,,I only use one bait to knock them dead,, Single hook salmon egg,,,2. If you go way down 2-4 miles …down piru you’ll run into some big pools with huge trout,,1 lb plus trout,,,3. The fishing up-stream towards the Dam is good also,,,
I fished thier not too long ago. The hike into that area alone was one hell of an experience. We did catch some fish most very small, but what beautiful colors. If we were to fish in their again, I'd definitely be armed with bear spray and a gun. The brush can be super thick and you will need to build makeshift creek crossings. It's hard fishing because it's very thick in there. Wear good shoes, pants and a shirt. Lots of bugs, and you may encounter snakes. Again, it's not an easy hike into this canyon and its bear country. This spot isn't for everyone. Thanks for the video. I found it very informative.
Welcome to Cali .. hope u had fun and visited some of the best trout waters in the state. There are tons of them. Golden Trout, brookies, browns, cutthroat, hybrids, rainbows and pauite species are all here.. lake trout too. Oh, steelhead.. 🙂
Beautiful location that first place down stream was gorgeous, upstream had better options for fishing though!! very peaceful ... I am planning on doing some NE iowa trout fishing this year.. thanks for sharing.. drive safe
NE iowa is gorgeous! I’ve only been on one fishing trip up there, check out where canoe creek meets the upper Iowa. Caught rainbows, smallies, walleye and pike all within 100yds river
2024 Freshwater Sport Fishing Regulations Booklet (PDF) Look up the river alphabetically and by county. Download it to your phone. No CFW will dispute it. Another great vid. I love your spinner/bobber/fly technique. Bypasses all that expensive gear stuff and bravado with fly fishing.
Awesome! Beautiful spot. While you're in CA you should definitely do some saltwater fishing if possible. There are some really unique species around here that you can't find anywhere else in the world!
@@bn5445 I guess I was more referring to the west coast in general, but there's all those rockfish and surfperch species, cabezon, lingcod, white seabass, bat rays, etc etc. And so many more, would be way too long of a comment to list them all lol
My God, I haven't fished Piru Creek and the Sespe Wilderness since the early 70's. FWIW, Sespe Creek was where Manson attorney Ronald Hughes disappeared back in 1970, at the beginning of the Manson murder trials.. His skeletal remains were found in March, 1971.
Fun spot. I try to never touch the fish besides holding the lower jaw. You can get the hook out that way, and even hold the fish up to look at and take pics of. Why people must hold a fish they are not keeping is likely because they don't know any different. Seems best to not disturb the slime layer.
@7:31 That is correct. It is pronounced as Pie-Roo. Looks like you're fishing (south) downstream from the parking lot. It is harder to trek farther south due to the steep mountain sides. Going upstream (north), far up the paved road, you run into another good spot. It's a deep pool. It's only good when no one else is around. The native trout are small but feisty. I always caught and released mine from there.
You are in Rattlesnake country!! I suspect it's still cool enough that having an encounter with one is slim. I used to fish Lake Piru, and Sespie Creek up above Ojai, almost step on them if you are fishing during the time they come out to sun bath.
Yep! I fished Piru Creek in the 80s. There wasn't any trouble with Rattlers close to the parking area, but venturing into the canyon you better watch out.
Some nice hot springs in that area too. If you into that sort of thing. Never fished piru but have fished the sespi many times. And the other commenters are correct. They haven’t stocked that area in years. It’s all natives and remnant stocker populations now.
Head east on I80 to boca stampede reservoir fish the truckee river and the little truckee river between the two reservoirs its alot of fun watch for rattle snakes it's that time of year TIGHT LINES FOOD LUCK
I grew up fishing here, water was deeper back in the day. You use to be able to drive all the way up. A bunch of people ruined it for everyone, trash, dirty diapers, etc...
Just watching this video I got a bunch of bug bites and sun stroke from walking with you in the parking lot! This is as close to actually going with you and having the experience!
Pleasantly surprised that fish have survived there....the last ten years of so have been brutal....fires, then floods from rain silting up the water.....and being do close to LA....it gets hit pretty hard. Watch out for your car in the parking lot too......A-holes will break into your vehicle for whatever they can find
TENKARA for sure! Ancient Asian method of using flies and nymphs in the tiniest remote waters. Literally walking upstream hitting the pools. Collapsing telescopic rod you store in a metal tube and toss in your backpack. Keep your spinning set up as your primary and pull out the Tenkara as another tool. Check it out.
You should hike in to the back of the kern river where the big kern and the little kern split off it's beautiful there and it qould be nice to see it again
Biggest trout I caught was a 5lb German Brown out of Cresent Lake in Oregon was on a Chartreuse and Black Panther Martin. Fishing for Kakanee is great there as well
I put the video in slow mode and saw what fell bro, it was your clips you use to get the hook out of the fish mouth 😳 looked like a Silver pair of scissors... Hopefully not special to you, otherwise that's easy to replace. But nice video bro, I enjoyed it that's a nice spot!
@@theu.s.ofangling1344 When you said you dropped something, I automatically started rewatching and slow motion it to see what fell then once I figured it out and commented I press play to continue watching and you automatically realized what it was I thought 🤔 maybe I should have just kept watching instead of going all inspector gadget 🤓 I thought it was your car key so I was freaking out Hahaha ✌️
I live In the sierras close to the rubicon. If you wanna kill it on some small creeks. Smack some grasshoppers/crickets with your hat to stun them and put them in a jar alive. Cast them out with a small hook. You will catch a fish every single cast that cricket is on your hook
Your video has a lot of misinformation. Piru Creek has not been stocked in over 15 years. All of the fish in that creek and native / wild fish. The creek below the weir falls under regular trout regs. Upstream of the weir is catch and release only with single barbless hooks. Fishing above the last bridge before the dam is illegal. All of us anglers from Southern California who cherish this local water (since there aren’t a lot of trout fisheries available to us) would appreciate if you updated this video or even took it down. There is danger is people thinking that a creek is stocked when it isn’t. This creek has had issues and continues to have issues with poaching. Please do your research before you put information out there.
Thanks for pointing out it’s no longer stocked, I took that part out. Just a quick 10 second clip I had to delete…. I got some bad info from one of the local campground hosts. But…… A lot of misinformation in this video?? I literally tell people to make sure they look up regulations for different areas they fish 🤷🏽♂️ Man I bet you tell some crazy fish stories with those exaggerations! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for updating it. You didn’t have to throw the insult into the conversation, as I was trying to do you a favor by passing on pertinent information you didn’t include in your video. That being said, The “crazy fish stories” I tell are simply no match for your monetized channel that’s hot-spotting fisheries you’ll likely only visit once, while the local anglers are left dealing with the unneeded attention you’ve brought to these spots.

Hey there! I wanted to suggest incorporating discussions on conservation into your videos. Given the challenges trout face in California, particularly with climate change/drought, and over fishing, highlighting sustainable fishing practices could really benefit the ecosystem and enrich your content. This way, you're not just sharing fishing spots but also promoting the protection of these precious resources for future generations. It seems like you respect these beautiful fish, however I've encountered people on water that don't always share our perspective.
@@GomezBro depending on water clarity the fish see the line if it’s too thick, and they won’t hold onto the fly as long if they feel the line. Also,12lb line wouldn’t fit through some of the flies eyes that I use.
If you like catching wilds and natural hybrids, maybe take a look at an area known as Boards Crossing and/or Sourgrass. Its in snow today, but first week of June that mountain fork of the Stanislaus River really comes alive!
Take the hike into the canyon towards Lake Piru, waterfalls, ponds. One thing in that area, change your walking through brush RATTLESNAKES are in abundance
Do you know what man you need to be careful with Mountain lion when you go fishing in small creeks in California Valley or the water is where are you find Cats or maybe they’ll find you first
I don't know where the rugged sportsman's getting his information but there's nothing but native fish there. That's why it's completely catch and release barbless hook single hook setup no bait.
You probably ended up killing that fish by the manner you held it with dry hands and throwing the fish into the stream.. Please learn how to properly release trout.
@@theu.s.ofangling1344 Trout are notorious for deciding themselves what will kill them. Unless you're keeping the fish, there's no need to handle them .grab the hook with a hemostat or needlenose and shake the hook loose while still in net
You should really be more mindful about stating where you're fishing. It isn't informative it just adds unnecessary pressure to that location. There is practically no wild trout left there because of people blowing up the spot. Next thing you know there is going to be empty powerbait and salmon egg jars all over and no trout.
If it weren't for bait dunkers license money, there probably wouldn't be anyway. I flyfish and bait/lure fish, just don't use bait for catch and release. I've seen plenty of trash left by flyfishermen.
That’s how California is no signs until a warden comes by & says it’s illegal & on the flip side you see signs all over saying No hunting fishing or trespassing & stay out.
Do you know how you said even if you don’t know what the fuck you anyway trust me California lives off of that that lol right there is why they make things so complicated and confusing is there a cash cow and it’s sad that we have to deal with this in California you will definitely find yourself a fish and game person during your episode probably 100% guaranteed and if not it is a very big fluke
So you didn’t look up the Local regulations for this creek and just started fishing with barbed hooks assuming they were stocked Trout .because there are wild trout only in that area. Respect local creeks with wild fish in them or don’t fish them at all. We already have a problem with people poaching and not respecting the area last thing we need is some famous TH-camr doing it on the Internet. And I agree with the other guy you talk too damn much just shut up and fish
I believe that was a native steelhead, protected fish buddy and you just toss it back !!!!! Please DO NOT RETURN TO CALIFORNIA for your videos !!!! You influencers need to educate yourselves before ever posting anything
California creek trout are typically less than 12” and mostly 6-10” . Light gear, small flies, have fun! Nice vid! 🤙🏼
I’ve gotten 15 inchers before at my secret spot
Wow, recognized Piru Creek instantly. I'm 76 now and used to fish there in my thirties and forties when we lived in the San Fernando valley. They stocked it in those days.
When I went here I thought they still stocked it! Turns out just natives! They are still there though!
My Dad used to take Me to the Hatchery to feed the fish when we would go Visit My Grandmother in Fillmore.
