Fishing for Brood Trout With Ultralight Gear
It is officially winter in Oregon, and here in the mid-Willamette Valley, that means brood trout fishing. These are BIG rainbow trout that the hatcheries retire into local lakes and ponds, and we are going to target these hard fighting fish with minimalistic gear. Ultralight rods, reels and 2 lb test line are the order of the day. I'll give tips and techniques along the way as we buckle up and get ready to enjoy the ride!
Tips up, tight lines and have fun fishing!

Bed Fishing Bass With an Ultralight Rod
I’m heading out to waverly Saturday!
Hell yeah 🤙. Hopefully the weather is good
@ yea
Great new source for info on fishing Oregon but PLEASE slow down the cursor movements on the maps!
Thank you, and lol, noted. My brain knows what to say and my hands try to keep up
Good fishing. You think salmon would bite topwater lures?
Thank you, and aside from fly lures, not likely. Salmon don't actually feed in fresh water. They're very territorial, and strike more out of reflex than hunger, so salmon lures are meant to be triggering. The story is same with roe, which they swallow out of a competitive response toward another salmon's eggs
Lingcods should be on the list. they're only on the West coast
I like ur vids, Oregon has some good fishing
Awesome fishing. Great Video. Would love to visit Oregon some time this Summer. Any lakes you could recommend for trout fishing during summer? Was thinking of visiting Central Oregon. Thank you ..
2:00 amen
Great video man, very informative. I've been living in Oregon for most of my life and have done my fair share of fishing, but I've always felt like a blind man when it comes to fishing knowledge.
Thank you 🤙
Im so happy your still doing your thing bro. Been watching your videos for like years.
Thank you 🤙
541! Fellow Albany fisherman here ✋
Ahoy 🤙
I have the okuma rockaway as well 10’6” it’s the MF but i feel like I have the opposite problem and don’t feel the sensitivity to the bites in the surf
Although I did catch a 12” perch on it but he swallowed it so I didn’t feel the bite any tips or tricks?
I use 1.5 oz egg weight Carolina sinker
Try putting your finger on the line just off if your reel
@@TheTroutHammer will try out later today thanks again 🙏
@defunctdanny for sure 🤙
Good to see ya Scott. Winter fishing can be tough
Thank you, and yeah, that's why it's called fishing and not catching 🤙
is this in Albany?
Yes
Thanks for the video! They can be tricky this time of year. Happy holidays
Thank you, and to you as well 🤙
Try a small brass spoon,I have done really well with that in my seventy years of fishing stocked fish
Spoons are among my favorite trout lures 🤙. I stuck with single hook lures because of familiarity with the rocks and vegetation at these ponds
Glad I’m not the only one who’s nozzle is all leaky all the time lol
Great video, as always keep it up. 👍
Thank you 🤙. Still hoping to run into you some day
@TheTroutHammer same I've been out a few times to Waverly but have been skunked each time.
@ajfishing2609 me too. Lately, Timber Linn has been more reliable for trout to me
Nice man, moved back to Salem and I miss being able to pop over to these ponds quickly!
Yeah, it's definitely nice having them close by
Idk if you remember me we met while i was fishing at a neighborhood pond while u were walking. I’ve had tons of luck with brooders at waverly this year with a baitcaster and crank bait surprisingly. but i was snapped off twice with 15lb fluro so using 2lb mono is wild to me
Hey, I remember you 🤙. Yeah, using that light of line effectively is just a matter of knowing when to let the fish run, when to pull it in and how to manage your drag
Good content Scott! With light gear, you might consider using a sliding weight setup. Sometimes those brooders are finicky if they feel any resistance after picking up the bait. Hope to see more videos in the near future!
Thank you. I've actually done both setups before, and personally found no difference in performance
I went to junction city pond and got a brood today!
Awesome! So, there ARE fish in there? 😅🤙
@ yes, they stock it with brood, recycled steelhead and trout! There’s also bluegill and bass
@Reel-fishy I've fished that place half a dozen times, and never seen a fish caught while i was there
@ right now it the best time to go
@Reel-fishy I'll have to give it another shot 🤙
Keep fishing old friend
Never stop never stopping 🤙
We call that surf casting!
I also use Rockaway rod, but I feel it will become a heavy one when doing surf fishing for a while.
I didn't mind the weight, but I'm also used to it
Good to see you back I have missed you.
Thank you 🤙
Okuma makes great rods! I use them for fly fishing and love them! Great vid!
Thank you 🤙
Good to see you back
Thank you 🤙
You guys need to invest in a beach fishing cart to haul your gear. Once you try it you won’t be without it again!! Cheers from a longtime surf fisherman in FL.
I plan on getting one 🤙
Congrats on the weight loss brother!! Keep it up!! 💛💚🌲💚💛
Thank you 🤙
Much easier from a rocky jetty
So glad to see ya back out there.
Thank you 🤙
Try clam necks,or kelp worms. Those are what I use to use when I was younger. I'm 71 now and my knees don't like the hard sand. Stay safe and thanks for sharing
Awesome, thank you 🤙
down 70lbs dude LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO nice work
Thanks man 🤙. 30 away from my first big goal
Great Video Scott, keep them coming!
Thank you 🤙
My rockaway broke before it was ever wet...😢
That's sucks! 😫
Good to see ya again, Scott! Great video!
Thank you 🤙. I've missed surf fishing so much!
glad your back health issues can be a pain
Thank you 🤙
Awesome! Glad you’re back at it, my dude!
It feels good to create again 🤙
Good stuff, sure did mis your vids, you're one of the more informative and helpful guys out there!!
Thank you 🤙
F yeah dude! Good to see you crushing it. You're an inspiration as I'm also trying to lose some weight.
That's awesome!!
Great video buddy glad to see ya out there enjoying fishing and filming again we gotta get together for some winter steelhead
Dude, yeah we do!
@TheTroutHammer I'll let you know when the run starts getting good probably next month
@OregonFishingAdventures sounds good 🤙
Your back!!!!! OMG! Where are you?
Doing much better, now that I can get back out in the surf 🤙
@ where were you fishing at?
@Reel-fishy Seal Rock and Lost Creek
@ ok 👍🏻
