6 pound test,i never went above 4 lb. I live in Florida now but from Ohio and fished the Mad for nearly 4 decades. You want bigger fish? Go in May , water temps in 50s, higher water and very aggresive fish especially as the water is falling and clearing after a heavy rain..
@@davidross5630 I’ll keep that in mind! I usually only fish trout from November-March but I’ll have to try May because I’ve been wanting to catch a big one. As far as the line goes, 6 pound is probably a little bit excessive but I like to use the heaviest line I can get away with because I’m paranoid about breaking off lol
Great day! From TN but visiting some fam in west Dayton. Saw Urbana wasn’t too far from them and would love tp fly fish the mad. What put in is this called? Can’t find any good public places to put in
@@loganu249 this spot is actually halfway between Urbana and Springfield but it’s really shallow and the fish have mostly moved out as of this week. There’s a good access point on Eagle City Rd that’ll give you access to some deeper water
Great action. Wow every cast almost. I have the opposite prob here in my fav spot in pa...low numbers but bigger fish.....i will take either lookin forward yo ya gettin that high teens fish....they must of been spawning so grouped up like that..awesome
@@rustbeltwilds837 yeah I’ve never seen them as aggressive as they’ve been this year. I just went again yesterday and got over 20 with one of them being 14-15”. I’ll be posting the video in the next few days!
Love Mad River for trout fishing! Just got 7 of them the day after Christmas.
@@NickFishOhio614 nice! They’re a blast. Do you fish the Urbana area or down by Springfield?
@ I’m in Columbus so I’ve only been out there 3 times. Just north of Springfield. I want to try a little further north though.
@ gotcha this video was just north of Springfield. I’ve tried just outside of Urbana and got about 20. The rivers pretty in that area too
@ probably the same bridge I was just at. But I won’t say on here to keep our spot hush hush 😂
Good work out there man. Nice video.
@@MK_Outdoorsx thanks!
Nice Video Keep Growing,,,,
Thank you!

That’s a gigantic reel for that rod
Yeah I usually use a smaller one with it but I like to use a bigger reel when trout fishing in fast moving water.
