Hello: Just want to say thanks for all the great content, how to fish with the jigging method. I have picked up some Spartans and mini jigs. The Spartans have been working so good. Love fishing this way with light micro rod. Super fun. Got a new kayak, still on the learning curve for sure setting hook etc. Placed second order of Spartans yesterday…. In clear water got some trout color and color others can’t wait. Please let me know next year when you go back to pyramid Lake I live 20 minutes love to watch! I will have to get that gold fish bait for sure. Been watching your video’s. I have been fishing up in the mountains near Truckee. Thanks again!
@@mikehomsley4541 thank you so much that means a lot I really enjoy hearing storys of people catching more fish using the methods and especially on our baits . I will definitely let you know I plan on going a lot out there when season starts . We have some new stuff coming out for pyramid.
I was fishing at Little Virginia this week and caught about 40 with your Minnows, Black Galaxy was fire🔥 I will definitely be ordering the new Spartan Minnows. Keep up the great work Bro, your products are awesome!
Thanks for the video. Beautiful fish. I love Virginia Lakes. I haven't caught much there but I have to fish from shore. It is good to see there was still snow there. Last Sept when I was there, there was no snow.
@@GoldenStateFishing let’s do that! Bro, I got promoted this year so at a new yard and married next weekend. Busy! Haven’t fished as much as I liked when I do it’s chill fishing and some drinks lol.
You are supposed to take the tag fish to Ken’s tackle in Bridgeport and get a picture and you get a spot in a derby but I have never done that . I’ve gotten around 16 in the last 2 years alone and never take them
@robfowler54 no so when you set your rod down it won’t scratch the reel .. that’s a $460 reel with $250 in upgrades I want to keep it nice but it’s also for looks also I rarely ever set it down .
@@GoldenStateFishing yeah I totally agree. I never ever let my reel touch dirt or sand. When I set my reel down it gets put on a rag but never touches the ground.
It’s phenix 5lb braid but you must you a leader I use a 7-8ft 4lb fluorocarbon leader . If you are newer to jigging I recommend 2lb maxima . The braid to fluorocarbon you must use a connection knot I use a Albright or double uni and it’s a difficult knot to learn and must clip it flush or it won’t work.
That’s just the carbon fiber drag . It’s only a few weeks old and has been lubed lots it works like a Rolex trust me I have 2 the exact same both are exactly the same .
Toads!!! What an epic trip 🎣

That’s so awesome 🙌🏽 glad you like them . Black galaxy is a great color that’s actually the first bait color I ever made .

Those baits look good..heading to fish blake jones in a couple weeks ill have to pick a few packs up..
There definitely top notch bro I know you will love them .
What do you do with the tags on the fish? Great video. Cant wait to go back in two weeks.
You are supposed to take the tag fish to Ken’s tackle in Bridgeport and get a picture and you get a spot in a derby but I have never done that . I’ve gotten around 16 in the last 2 years alone and never take them
How do I make those amazing rod holders for my FishCat4? please
There’s actually lots of TH-cam videos on how to make one that’s what did
What polarized glasses/color are best to use while fishing In the sierras?
Waterland sunglasses at the end of the video I give all the info for them and a discount code to use
Great content! Which shops carry your baits up that way? I'm headed up this weekend and won't have time to order any in, but 'd like to pick some up.
Thank you 🙏 no shops carry the Spartan minnows yet but Ernies tackle in June lake has a good selection of our baits
Thanks, I'll check it out!@@GoldenStateFishing
@King-rw9cy good luck up there . Fish on ! 🎣
Estevan, what is that violet colored post sticking out on other side of crank on your reel??
It’s a kick stand for your reel .
@@GoldenStateFishing are u joking??
@robfowler54 no so when you set your rod down it won’t scratch the reel .. that’s a $460 reel with $250 in upgrades I want to keep it nice but it’s also for looks also I rarely ever set it down .
@@GoldenStateFishing yeah I totally agree. I never ever let my reel touch dirt or sand. When I set my reel down it gets put on a rag but never touches the ground.
Estevan, what line are you using?
It’s phenix 5lb braid but you must you a leader I use a 7-8ft 4lb fluorocarbon leader . If you are newer to jigging I recommend 2lb maxima . The braid to fluorocarbon you must use a connection knot I use a Albright or double uni and it’s a difficult knot to learn and must clip it flush or it won’t work.
Estevan, it really sounds like your pinion gear in that reel needs a dose of Lubriplate grease. It screams when you're reeling in. Not a good sound.
That’s just the carbon fiber drag . It’s only a few weeks old and has been lubed lots it works like a Rolex trust me I have 2 the exact same both are exactly the same .
@@GoldenStateFishing it better run like a Rolex for the price it cost lol!!
@@gonfishn lol my Stella’s are way more but it’s all tools for me so it’s well worth every penny. Nothing is better the JDM reels .
