Early Season Winter Steelhead Fishing. In Search Of Chrome!

[@boardaway1]

The bit about why the fish aren't biting was absolute gold. Id love to see more of that lol

[@-Bored_Gamer-]

As a bank-fisher only ( as I have no boat) I find a lot of this information very helpful, just need to find rivers that are A). open to public B). Have enough of a bank for me to fish from C) that have Steelies or Coho fish. This year im hoping to finds at least 3 or 4 rivers here in Oregon that meet the requirements. Heres to 2024 and tight lines and chrome domes

[@mijosec]

Same dude been thinking of getting group together and buying our own boat, and if adx likes this comment, they will buy us boats!

[@FlyTech541]

Bro same I only bank fish (never been on a drift boat) I fish the rogue a lot! Maybe we can link to fish 🔥 I wanna catch a steelhead with beads so bad

[@-Bored_Gamer-]

@@FlyTech541 I agree. I'll be sure to head out to the rouge river one if these weekends soon.

[@FlyTech541]

@@-Bored_Gamer- it’s best on weekday if you can ever get the day off I went on a Monday and had the whole river to myself got lucky and hooked a 6lb summer steelhead around 9:45 am I have it on my channel if you wanna check it out 🔥

[@caveman4947]

It's my goal this year to try and hook unto my 1st steelhead and or salmon. I tried when I was 17. But had no luck. Watching the content you guys put out keeps the motivation in wanting to meet this goal.

[@patpacheco3296]

I love Marlin Marlin videos. He's a great teacher. Fish on all.

[@FlyTech541]

I managed to hook a summer steelhead in Oregon in December! First time ever going alone I can say it was almost tears of joy! It was a wild 26inches 6 pounds off a nymph. I’m addicted now

[@anthonym7227]

We need more steelhead trips with Cam!!! ❤

[@AddictedFishing]

Agreed!

[@michaelcatalano8882]

I personally always use a 12 ft rod for steelhead. At least here In steelhead alley the fishing pressure is super heavy and we get a lot of low clear water so I like to run a super low profile set up. I always run 6lbs test and with that extra long rod to protect that super light fluro leader I can land 12 to even 13 or 14lbs fish without breaking off too much.

[@jeremyphillips6229]

Same here, I fish ny tribs. Mainly use a 13ft 6-12lb, 6lb leader.

[@NolanPurkerson]

Great informative video! Grew up fishing that river! My house is actually in the background of one of your clips. The early run of that strain is almost non existent so you were definitely searching for gold.

[@coreycorey2220]

Way to go picking up the slack for Jordan.
Haven't heard Much from him Lately hopefully he's catching huge fish See you guys at the sportsman Shows

[@victoriaxholmes]

Still working hard to land my first steelhead. It’ll happen someday! Thanks for the tips too guys tight lines! 🤙🏼🎣

[@yesvanevaldovinos5908]

Caught my first steelhead this year on a worm! Shout out to you guys for the information!🙏🏼

[@jimmyc5050]

Yep, agree...water was too wet!! Hate it when that happens.

[@toddknutson6317]

The reality is piece on why they didn’t catch anything was freaking hilarious🤣😂. Love it!

[@Jonnydager]

Hey guys, would love to hear your knowledge on what is going on in the p.n.w. over fish numbers. The whole scheme of reasons why. Inquiring minds need to know. ❤ the hard work guys

[@snsfishingpnw]

Great video guys... that little summer was a sweet looking fish

[@fishingthenw1642]

Took that Midwest float style to heart after steelhead alley. Lol

[@jcs5520]

Fantastic video and explanation of your set-ups. Can't wait for the snow up in Alaska to melt so I can head down for RB/DV fishing.
Let's go

[@XPLRNW]

Always fun watching you guys score some amazing fish... Shout out from Central Washington! from XPLRNW

Don’t be Marlin

[@AddictedFishing]

Yep, facts! 😂

[@donwosa2307]

the why we didn't catch fish exchange was spot on.. lol

[@terryfuller8724]

You didn’t see no fish because Marlins snacks were in the way.

[@AddictedFishing]

Go fish Argentina this year for salmon on the glacier king river common 60lbers y’all the only people who can make that video happen for us on TH-cam 😅

Tim P from Weed ,Ca and the Klamath .Took a tour today with a lot of brown going down stream !

[@robbybrant]

Mending line is way easier using a longer rod. Me personally I’d go no shorter then 10 foot. I use a 11’6 rod

[@jeffstoeger2974]

Great video guy's can't wait until pdx sportsman show.

#DontBeMarlin sounds like a new Addicted bumper sticker.

[@ShenpaiWasTaken]

[@DiamondModderHD]

Gotta say addicted made okuma relevant used to see only lami & Gs on the river now it’s center pins Okumas or customs or the guy like me who bangs fish out on a cheap trout rod I break expensive ones 2 times a year 😂

[@nathanr4650]

need those sliding floats ASAP

[@johnhenryscott5319]

The one thing I wish you guys did was say the location your fishing. I understand why you wouldn’t as such a large channel dropping the location would flood a river with fisherman. As someone just trying to get into it, it would be nice if you would drop some locations.

[@jameshill8548]

When will the steelehead movie be available to see online? I'm on the other coast. Loved the excuses bit. 😅

[@AddictedFishing]

Shortly after the premieres. Not sure exactly when.

[@scottrouwhorst881]

[@KeithFoster-re5xj]

#Dontbeamarlin #setthosehooks great video guys! Makes me miss Oregon fishing

[@daddybennettfort]

I love you guys

[@andrewlang4045]

Did you hook your arm with the rod? 😂

[@ohnojoe5088]

Love the content! Been to a few local rivers here, but its a bit early for most of them. Also went to the Olympic Peninsula, no luck (blown out). I really get the "chasing unicorn" feeling, as I haven't gotten a single bite so far this winter. :(
One idea for a video, from what I've noticed from other commenters: what does it take to go from bank fishing to boat fishing? Doesn't need to be super extensive, but my dad has told me "don't float down a river for the first time without someone there who's done it before and knows the river well". That put a huge stop on my thoughts to get a small boat for myself, but I'd love to hear your guys' thoughts!
P.S. Your worm head hooks are a bit fragile. When pinching the barb for the Olympic Peninsula, 2/4 of ours snapped. Didn't even pinch that hard. Just letting you guys know for quality control.

[@davidblalack5015]

I love this video. Lets goooo

[@Alex-qj7fw]

"BUT THE REALITY IS" i watch too much addicted videos.

[@mattcullum870]

Loved this! I wanna put a DIY rod rack like that on my raft. Which rod rack is that?

[@boblove6865]

So strange to me how vastly different the Great Lakes set ups are compared to the PNW. I would never fish a rod under 11 foot and we loose the hi his line after a few years in the game. 40 pound braid is not a thing here not even for Kings. I do use 20 pound braid for Kings and early steel but we use a floro shot line and leader. I need to get out west!

[@stefanoflocchini7805]

And you think Washington state used to be the Mecca of catching steelhead of course the pencil pusher’s behind the desk don’t fish don’t care, but you guys still did good congratulations

[@Drewsfishingtrips]

Feel bad you guys don't get good runs, We can go to almost any creek up here and get 3 to 5 minimum on good water condition days most of the time.

[@AddictedAnglers001]

Favorite river close to me, spent probably at least a thousand hours out there last year fishing. No steelhead yet but got 2 chinook jacks, 4 coho jacks, a nice 10lb chrome coho henand a 12lb fire truck buck along with a bunch of trout though. One of these days I’ll get a steely on that river! Probably gonna have to get a raft to float down like y’all do to get one though😂 some of them spots us bank fisherman don’t have access to are killer out there

[@AddictedAnglers001]

I do much better on the Cow at least for Coho, got about 17 Coho in October out of there, mostly on bluefoxes. Even got a dime 13lb Chinook on a bluefox while using my trout rod because my salmon rod broke😂 sadly couldn’t keep because it was wild and retention of nooks wasn’t allowed at the time.

[@joshuamillard37]

First comment. Lets go! So excited for these winter steelhead videos!

[@alejandroguillen8790]

What does limited lifetime warranty cover? And doesn’t cover? I have a few x-series and I haven’t broken any yet but what is covered?
