Heres a good tip, use hooks that are twice as small as the hooks your using and fish close to the bank and corn works great, and power bait also only use 8 pound test at the most! I usually use 4 or 6 pound test. Also downgrade your in-line spinner to something way smaller then yours! But only use corn if you’re going to keep them! 🔥 Keep up the good work man! 🔥 good luck!
My favorite setup by far is a bottom fishing rig with a mouse tail smeared in garlic scent floating up however much is needed. I go barbless because they almost always swallow that rig whole.
Oiiiiiiii mate i have a tip for you im Australia just walk up s and say what are you using and watch a few outdoorlivnnn tic toks on what little lures he uses
Rig that Berkeley mouse tail like a drop shot with a small sinker. You can run it like a true drop shot, or add a couple inches of leader. Small hook, straight through the head, you don’t have to run it through the bend of the hook like a grub tail. Keep the line tight and just twitch it. Hope that helps
I had the same problem beginning of this year but I used a smaller hook then I was and just a basic worm and started to get em! I think where your worms is floating is huge
Same here brother and I asked them what bait they use. Nightcrawler… and i used spinners, powerbait and stuf like you… sometimes the soulution is simple.
Small hooks, Pink worm rigged wacky and split shot. That’s good for stocked early fall to mid winter. Then start using spinners, crank baits, halgermites later in the spring
I've had the best luck on stock trout lakes with worm and bobber about 8 foot deep, or off the bottom if you go off the bottom use a worm blower on your worm, if you have access like a dock to walk out to deeper water, using a 1/16 ounce jighead with a worm and jigging it works great too
If the trout are fresh from the hatchery use corn, or use small sections of shrimp with a piece of corn on the hook end. They tend to hang around 1-2 feet deep and you want to be in the high traffic zone of where they tend to eat which means look for unusual ripples in the water
Try two power eggs with like 2" of live nightcrawler. Push the eggs up the hook shank until the second egg covers the eye of the hook, then thread the worm onto the shank. Good floating live bait with a spot of color and some extra scent.
Try wasp larva. You knock down a small wasp nest. Use a cup half full of gasoline to cover the nest and all the wasps will not be able to breath. They will fall into the cup. Now you have just the nest. Pull the caps off of the larva and use them to fish with. You can catch Trout, Bass of all kinds, Crappie, Perch and many different panfish. My Grandpa used to put on his insulated coveralls, a motorcycle helmet with a scarf wrapped around his neck and welding gloves. He would just walk up to the nest and just knock it down with a stick.
Great try man I’ve gotten skunked at three times I’ve gone fishing this new year still haven’t got the first fish of the new years but my friend got a giant 3 pound tiger trout thing on one of Thoses mouse tail lures so just keep trying and soon you will get one I could watch this channel 24/7❤❤
Fluorocarbon is a pretty big help when dealing with trout. I'd recommend 4-6lb if you're trout fishing. Also, don't be afraid to change spinners. Some trout are looking for that particular color.
in Netherlands this method is most used because lure fishing is for experts here and for beginners lure fishing is sometimes catching nothing for weeks
The silicon worm with the circle you where using actually caught me 2 blue catfish and 1 channel catfish and to do this you make it dance in the water so you jiggle your rod gently because inside the water the worm will dance it the water so the trout at the pond you were trying to catch will most likely mistake the bait as s real worm so yep!
Trout can be super tricky to catch, I'd say a natural presentation or just straight up natural bait is probably gonna work better in areas with lots of fishing pressure
use a small piece of cut bait and a small hook and splitshot around 12 to 18 inches from your bait i figured this one out while catfishing at my local lake
I’ve caught some on 1/64oz jigs rigged up with 2.5” inch power bait minnows, here in midwestern stocked ponds. I’ve almost had luck on trout spinners too, mepps and panther martin make some cool ones!
They love rooster tails in my experience. And one of the best lures I’ve used that has always caught me a fish when I go out with it is a “Joe’s Fly: Muddler” trout, bass, and walleye always murder that thing.
here in norcal they slam atomic tubes by berkeley and 3in yamamoto senkos cut in half, threaded on a 1/32 jighead. jigging is king here. UL rod and 2lb line.
At least where I am in Texas. The stick trout will not bite any kind of fake lure or trout bait ball things. However. Garlic corn. Or marshmallows are amazing
There’s a pond by my house that stocks trout during the spring and they tend not to be aggressive. I tend to get the most bites when using a #2 Mepps spinner or a worm that’s inflated with air (on a size 8 or smaller hook with a few split shots).
Here in italy we go fishing trout pretty often and what I can suggest you is tu use tinier small and covert it well not like u have done cuz trout are smart and can see very well, also I can suggest u to use a float with a small hook and put "camole del miele" on it unfortunately I wasn't able to find a suitable traduction for the type of larva tu use on the float so try searching it in Italian and hopefully figure out by yourself the name of it, good luck 🤟🏼
I just started as well, caught my first trout the other day. Use a trout rig from Walmart to hold 2 hooks away from the line with a weight on the bottom
Try whole kernel corn! It’s works for me most ever time, if not try regular night crawlers, or try your hand at learning fly fishing it’s another great way to catch trout and it’s a hell of a good time fight them on a fly rod set up
pro or normal trout fisherman: get nightcrawlers and a kinda small hook, NOT too small, OR too big. maybe you should also use a fly with a weight and then the trout will inhale it then. Now im a fly fishermen, and with my experience in creeks in Wisconsin, this works for me, fun fact: they are technically salmon and taste really good when u know how to cook em.
Yoo i fished there in richmond!! I was there for the nascar weekend Not gunna give the exact location obviously but that place is good for channel catfish and thats about it
Put your bait and hook at least 15 to 20 in away from the weight so it can float freely away like it's just a piece of bait floating in the and keep a tight line and look for a small tiny little wiggle it's going to be very very minut and then pick up the runt without shaking it start reeling it in slowly and see if you got something on it
Here’s a tip I learned I was fishing trout with a friends dad and he said use light tackle and live bait they like the movement of natural things so throw small crayfish and a couple worms
Instead of that big tie on weight, try split shot weights, they hug your line more and are alot less visible, and also they allow your bait to sink slower which trout like that like
Also u should go to Aurora reservoir It is near me and I don't know what kind of fishing I should do cause I can't catch a trail. I can't catch anything I can't even catch a bass and I've never caught a bass.
Smaller hooks lighter line and you’re golden , mini jigs, spinners , nymphs and small streamers all work great . I personally fly fish the majority of the time and stocked trout can be super fun with an indicator (bobber) with some flies underneath but if you put some flies under a bobber on a spinning rod that can work well. About 2 1/2 to 5 feet of leader from the float of flourocarbon and you’re gold. Also a Carolina rig with a small like 14-18 size treble hood and some dough bait (power or homemade) all work great. I’d say nothing over 8 pound test but you’ll do better with 6-2 pound tbh
Try the yellow cheese power bait , I went to a spot watched everyone catching their limit and I didn’t get none . Switched to the cheese and it worked good
Use 2 pound fluorocarbon leader and roe bags and if it’s legal get hatchery dust to put on your power bait mimics the smell of the pellets they feed them in the hatchery
Also, the reels you're using look like daiwa fuegos. They're great reels, but designed for inshore use and as a result have reeeeally strong drag systems. So when you switch to lighter lines make sure you set your drag properly, as the drag on that reel can very easily lock down and break light line.
Good taste, same applies. Even the 2500 vanford is sitting between 15 and 20 lbs max drag if I remember correctly, you'll only want it set to around 4 lbs if that
Use berkly mice tails, someone named like lip ripper or something has many good videos on them and even tho he seems like a goon he definitely knows his stuff
That’s as happening to me and u gotta ask then what they are using if they are landing fish all around u I did the same thing one year and it seems they wanted the bait like u got but it was a sparkly bait and it had to be at the right depth that play a lot the role in it where are u just curious I’m in northern Illinois and me and buddies would go to stocked lakes and limit out every morning
I catch a lot of trout where I’m at because they breed on the creeks here in wv try using garlic powder mixed with American cheese it works really well for trout
You should come take a trip near Pittsburgh,Pa. Season starts in April and I could put you on a ton of fish. Lake and creeks. It’s a good time every year, find a way to message me man
I catch pond stocked trout with a size 8 bait holder hook a split shot about a foot above the hook and a single kernel of canned corn on the shank of the hook
Heres a good tip, use hooks that are twice as small as the hooks your using and fish close to the bank and corn works great, and power bait also only use 8 pound test at the most! I usually use 4 or 6 pound test. Also downgrade your in-line spinner to something way smaller then yours! But only use corn if you’re going to keep them! 🔥
Keep up the good work man! 🔥 good luck!
You want like 8-15 inches of line from the weight and make sure you use floating powerbait.
And use monofilament and not floral you want that bait to float off the bottom use light hooks size 14 treble game on
corn kills trout
@@warthunderfather so does shrimp
Corn!? Yeah let me just… they can’t digest corn and they die shortly after eating
Yep stocked trout are very finicky to catch. Some years I catch 40, others I only catch a couple. Don’t feel bad lol
My favorite setup by far is a bottom fishing rig with a mouse tail smeared in garlic scent floating up however much is needed. I go barbless because they almost always swallow that rig whole.

Same here brother and I asked them what bait they use. Nightcrawler… and i used spinners, powerbait and stuf like you… sometimes the soulution is simple.
I’d recommend a worm. I have a stocked trout lake that always produces if you use a simple worm and a bobber.
Small hooks, Pink worm rigged wacky and split shot. That’s good for stocked early fall to mid winter. Then start using spinners, crank baits, halgermites later in the spring
I've had the best luck on stock trout lakes with worm and bobber about 8 foot deep, or off the bottom if you go off the bottom use a worm blower on your worm, if you have access like a dock to walk out to deeper water, using a 1/16 ounce jighead with a worm and jigging it works great too

I luv ur vids, I always make sure to comment to push them!
Yo use tiny hooks and also use minnows as bait u can use a bobber or real it super slow with a weight
You got to talk to the people who are catching fish around you so you can catch fish to!
Great try man I’ve gotten skunked at three times I’ve gone fishing this new year still haven’t got the first fish of the new years but my friend got a giant 3 pound tiger trout thing on one of Thoses mouse tail lures so just keep trying and soon you will get one I could watch this channel 24/7❤❤
Fluorocarbon is a pretty big help when dealing with trout. I'd recommend 4-6lb if you're trout fishing. Also, don't be afraid to change spinners. Some trout are looking for that particular color.
1) USE A SPINNER 2) Splitshot a foot a way from hook, attach floating trout dough 3) use a worm on a floater. the worm will catch anything
Trout are some of the smartest fish you can catch you have to use tiny hooks and really small test line
love the channel and the i just started fishing yesterday i caught my pb 5 pound bass
in Netherlands this method is most used because lure fishing is for experts here and for beginners lure fishing is sometimes catching nothing for weeks
Hey... I have some luck on spinners sometimes. You could also try fly fishing.
The silicon worm with the circle you where using actually caught me 2 blue catfish and 1 channel catfish and to do this you make it dance in the water so you jiggle your rod gently because inside the water the worm will dance it the water so the trout at the pond you were trying to catch will most likely mistake the bait as s real worm so yep!

Clear bobber 4' away from a small single hook with a worm. Make sure the bobber is kinda filled with water and keep casting and realing
i dont know if it will make a difference but try corn, like a piece or two on just like a regular blue gill hook
They love rooster tails in my experience. And one of the best lures I’ve used that has always caught me a fish when I go out with it is a “Joe’s Fly: Muddler” trout, bass, and walleye always murder that thing.
here in norcal they slam atomic tubes by berkeley and 3in yamamoto senkos cut in half, threaded on a 1/32 jighead. jigging is king here. UL rod and 2lb line.
2 lb mono, cast close to bank, spray/coat your bait AND your leader with a scent spray or gel
At least where I am in Texas. The stick trout will not bite any kind of fake lure or trout bait ball things. However. Garlic corn. Or marshmallows are amazing
There’s a pond by my house that stocks trout during the spring and they tend not to be aggressive. I tend to get the most bites when using a #2 Mepps spinner or a worm that’s inflated with air (on a size 8 or smaller hook with a few split shots).
Just out of curiosity, was that Shield Lake in Richmond Virginia?
Pautzke's green label fireball salmon eggs 18 in below bobber. check the jar for juice inside to make sure they arent dry. 💥

Make sure your bait is floating the hook aswell!
Use mini jigs or hookup baits on 2-4# line an Ultralight jig your slack and keep your line straight
If you’re using braid you should try to put a 4-6lb fluro or mono leader should help you with bites
In my local pond we use light Carolina rigs with yellow power bait or corn but the weirdest one is marshmallows
Yin been on point with the loops lately
For trout in stocked ponds i usually use salmon eggs or roe i fish them on a small slip float
Pink spinners and yellow spinners work good for trout
stocked trout eat baits toward the surface i never had luck until using power bait eggs just enough to make em float and right below the surface
Yooo my guy!!! Hair is lookin greeeat!!
I just started as well, caught my first trout the other day. Use a trout rig from Walmart to hold 2 hooks away from the line with a weight on the bottom
Try whole kernel corn! It’s works for me most ever time, if not try regular night crawlers, or try your hand at learning fly fishing it’s another great way to catch trout and it’s a hell of a good time fight them on a fly rod set up
Try pickled corn usually works very well
Corn works amazingly as the fish are probably from hatcheries, as you said they were put in by the gov..
Also canned sweet corn is unbeatable for stocked trout.
pro or normal trout fisherman: get nightcrawlers and a kinda small hook, NOT too small, OR too big. maybe you should also use a fly with a weight and then the trout will inhale it then. Now im a fly fishermen, and with my experience in creeks in Wisconsin, this works for me, fun fact: they are technically salmon and taste really good when u know how to cook em.
i find with powerbait doesn't work, a trout magnet with a bubble float or a pink or chartruese floating worm on a split shot rig to do the tricm
Do you need a smaller hook? And do you need to 4 to 6 pound test
Eagle claw Trout rigs size 8, a 1 oz or 2 oz weight depending on how deep the water is, some bait holder snells size 2 or 4, and some night crawlers.
is this the pond at byrd park in Richmond if so i go here all the time and live right by it
Yoo i fished there in richmond!! I was there for the nascar weekend Not gunna give the exact location obviously but that place is good for channel catfish and thats about it
Corn, size 6 or 4 circle hook, 4Ib leader, and a bobber.
For the mouse tail bait, use a white power egg and a pink worm, they like that combo better
You will get ‘em try Rapala countdown no power bait !
I always catch Trout on tiny spoons or spinners. Also bobby Garland OG shad
I’m the opposite 😅I can catch stocked trout all day but haven’t had as much success with the bass!! 😂
Put your bait and hook at least 15 to 20 in away from the weight so it can float freely away like it's just a piece of bait floating in the and keep a tight line and look for a small tiny little wiggle it's going to be very very minut and then pick up the runt without shaking it start reeling it in slowly and see if you got something on it
Here’s a tip I learned I was fishing trout with a friends dad and he said use light tackle and live bait they like the movement of natural things so throw small crayfish and a couple worms
If you use mouse tail make sure it floats. Carolina rig. Small mosquito hook
Instead of that big tie on weight, try split shot weights, they hug your line more and are alot less visible, and also they allow your bait to sink slower which trout like that like
Shields lake? My wife used to live right down the street from there! Got my first top water bass at the pond
Use pink and orange power bait me and my fam always catch stuff on that
Also u should go to Aurora reservoir It is near me and I don't know what kind of fishing I should do cause I can't catch a trail. I can't catch anything I can't even catch a bass and I've never caught a bass.
kastmaster has never failed me
Use a bobber and worm or a small rooster tail. That ussually works for me
Smaller hooks lighter line and you’re golden , mini jigs, spinners , nymphs and small streamers all work great . I personally fly fish the majority of the time and stocked trout can be super fun with an indicator (bobber) with some flies underneath but if you put some flies under a bobber on a spinning rod that can work well. About 2 1/2 to 5 feet of leader from the float of flourocarbon and you’re gold. Also a Carolina rig with a small like 14-18 size treble hood and some dough bait (power or homemade) all work great. I’d say nothing over 8 pound test but you’ll do better with 6-2 pound tbh
I love your videos
I always use a worm getting it as deep as I can and just letting it sit has always worked
Try the yellow cheese power bait , I went to a spot watched everyone catching their limit and I didn’t get none . Switched to the cheese and it worked good
Use 2 pound fluorocarbon leader and roe bags and if it’s legal get hatchery dust to put on your power bait mimics the smell of the pellets they feed them in the hatchery
Try bread or corn and use a smaller hook u should get em caught a brown today on bread and a tiny bobber
Also, the reels you're using look like daiwa fuegos. They're great reels, but designed for inshore use and as a result have reeeeally strong drag systems. So when you switch to lighter lines make sure you set your drag properly, as the drag on that reel can very easily lock down and break light line.
They are vanfords
Good taste, same applies. Even the 2500 vanford is sitting between 15 and 20 lbs max drag if I remember correctly, you'll only want it set to around 4 lbs if that
What rods are you using??
I tried to catch stockies too and had no luck
Use berkly mice tails, someone named like lip ripper or something has many good videos on them and even tho he seems like a goon he definitely knows his stuff
Nightcrawlers in 2ft to 5ft of water if they arnt hitting on the bottom put a bobber on and keep your bait just under the surface.
That’s as happening to me and u gotta ask then what they are using if they are landing fish all around u I did the same thing one year and it seems they wanted the bait like u got but it was a sparkly bait and it had to be at the right depth that play a lot the role in it where are u just curious I’m in northern Illinois and me and buddies would go to stocked lakes and limit out every morning
My secret bait is salmon roe you can buy it in containers at most tackle stores
What rods are those? They look nice and light weight.
Halo
Just get a worm put it on a size 8 hook
Small weight
Smaller float with about 2-3feet of room and cast best way to catch them at a pond
Hey man I usually only do trout fishing id use a smaller weight and worms instead or garlic power bait
I catch a lot of trout where I’m at because they breed on the creeks here in wv try using garlic powder mixed with American cheese it works really well for trout
I make my own in-line spinners and we catch so much rainbows on them
Is that sheilds lake
Canned corn or worms always work with stockers.
What rod and reel are you using?
You should come take a trip near Pittsburgh,Pa. Season starts in April and I could put you on a ton of fish. Lake and creeks. It’s a good time every year, find a way to message me man
Try chronimid fishing on the fly or casting and retrieving a fly like a pumpkin head or blob. Lot more fun then bait fishing
The only people who can consistently catch stock trout are the ones that leave 30 fish heads and a can of corn when they leave.
Nice pond! I I bet you will catch then next time!
What was the bait called with the worm looking thing with the power bait kon the end
Think it’s mouse tail
Completely cover the hook in power bait so you can see any of the hook just the line sticking out of the powerbait
What rod are you using here?
Halo KSII Elite
Like earlier mentioned use small hook, and stock trout love bread
I catch pond stocked trout with a size 8 bait holder hook a split shot about a foot above the hook and a single kernel of canned corn on the shank of the hook
Yooooooooooooo I have the same bag for my fishing bag!!!!!!😂😂😂
