Steelhead in the Rocky River!
Переглядів 39Місяць тому
Nothing to do this cold weekend; so try our luck for some steelhead; drive 90 miles, have brunch, wait for the sun to warm up the Rocky River and give us access to, then hit the water. Not one bite; skunked!

Salmon Fishing Pere Marquette

I knew I was blessed to have my long time fishing buddy Dave along with my two boys and their friends. What I didn't know when I booked this fishing cabin exactly a year ago that we were going to be blessed with a great mix of experience, enthusiasm, energy, great fishing access, great weather and best time of the year for salmon fishing. We were truly lucky.

We joined Dave at Bacon Woods for a day of steelhead fishing. The bite was on in the morning until about 10:30, then it died off. We moved to Mill Hollow to try our luck, sure thing, the afternoon bite was on around 2 pm.
Unexpected day steelhead fishing the Vermillion river

We didn't expect favorable conditions after the rain on Friday, we knew that flow rate, Turbidity and water level would be concerning, but it was still better than staying home on a 50 Deg F day. When we reached the Vermillion, we realized that none of the locals were fishing. Yet, it seemed that we had a 4 hour window early in the morning and had success.

Fishing for steelhead in Vermillion River, Oh. Early hits in the morning and then died off. Water was stained, so egg sack was more suitable for those conditions.

As water temps warming up and the little rain we got during the week helped push some steelhead up the river, we decided to hit the Vermillion river in Ohio.

Started the trip out of Knoxville, TN on November 10 down to Fontana Dam, NC. Took a water taxi from the Fontana Marina to campsite 76, setup camp, fished a little and stayed the night. Headed out to campsite 86 about 12 miles. Fished a little at Hazel Creek. No signal. Headed back to the Marina the next day, had better scenery all the way to the Fontana Dam.

On my second trip up north to the Pere Marquette, Branch Township, Michigan, rain was not going to be a good enough reason to miss out on an exciting day of fishing.
Fishing for Salmon in the Pere Marquette

Planned this trip four months in advance with friends and my two boys. All the young anglers on this trip never fished for salmon, had to buy their gear the week before and were intimidated by the idea of using a fly rod; so we let them try it without fly rods. The weather was absolutely great the five days we were in the Pere Marquette river. The salmon was continuing their run even though the...

Beautiful day in mid February, 2023. Vermillion river started to clear up, and fresh steelhead was coming up river.

Is there any wind noise/vibration when Down the road?
No. Back far enough.
Not crispy enough
lol; what dough recipe you prefer and how long you keep it in the oven? Open to ideas. Send a pic.
Stupid music thumbs down!
Where was my invite!?
Looks delicious!!
You like pizza? Next time.
Three thing I can't do well for fishing. 1 Fly fishing I cannot keep my wrist straight from all the bass finesse twitching I've done, lol 2 center pin reel casting, I'm too impatient for it, & still l haven't gotten over a baitcaster type use. lol 3 baitcaster reel. I'm trying I even have reel with a centrifugal brake, but to no luck.
Great job!!! Question: where did you find the water gallons? Tranks!
The one you see was from Amazon. But I ended up purchasing another water tank from Yakima.
Awesome job! What hardware did you use to mount into the T-tracks of the topper? I've been having a hell of a time figuring out what bolts I can get to slide in there and use to do pretty much what you did.
Try this link www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Thule/853-2106.html
very nice! this is same basic design that i am about to start making... how strong is the aluminum extrusion ? can you stand on and climb around on top of the rack with out damage ?
Glad you liked it. I usually have an 8 gallons water tank and a tandem kayak mounted on the rack, driving at 70 mph. I have not seen any damage or bowing. My confidence in the kayak grows with every trip.
very nice and salute that you build it alone without proper table and other person help.
I appreciate the kind words and attention to detail. I realize that I enjoy the challenge of tinkering solo.
what paint??
Dupli-color spray paint
I've been on about all parts of the PM, but can't figure out what section that is? Looked like you had a good day and some really clear water. It's usually a little more stained up when we get up in late Sept.
This is to the east of S. Branch Rd. It’s a private property belonging to a rental cabins. This was my first time having access to that section of the river.
how wide is the iron plate?
2 inches. All the dimensions and materials are in the description. Enjoy.
Wicked spider. More reasons the wife won’t backpack with me & our 10 yo boy 😂. Was the water taxi worth it? Did you leave a POV at the marina & still require a GSMNP parking pass by chance?
The water taxi is definitely worth it. We didn’t pay any fees at the marina as long as we stayed above a certain point. Thank you for the comment.
excellent! simple solution and looks great!
Hey Bassam, salam bro. I’m thinking of going to the vermillion next weekend for the first time. Any tips you can give on best place to go etc? Don’t want you to spill the beans on secret spots but anything will help
Hi @GRIMDoZeR, I think the steelhead run is done; I would try Baconwoods, you’ll have a mix of fast water and some deep channels. Good Luck, we’re all counting on you.
Much appreciated man, I will let you know the result!
Thanks Brock, you should join us.
Nice fish!!
Love it ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~cheers to the steelhead journey!!!!!!!!!!!!cheers
Your content is amazing but the views are very low
Thank you. I’m currently experimenting with content and editing skills. As my kids getting older and my responsibilities towards the family are shrinking, I’m able to pursue my hobbies.
Very well made, I like it! Did you install the canopy base tracks, or did they come on the canopy?
I had a Yakima roof rack installed, then I sold the towers and cross-bars, kept the tracks and repurposed for my roof-rack. Thank you for the kind words.
@@bassamawadThanks, I'm looking at installing base sliders first, then building it up from there. I have the same idea as you on building my own version of the Prinsu rack. Cheers 🍻
Good idea, song is torture. Turn off the sound if watching this, the music never goes away.
I will consider, thanks.
Very nice work Sir.
Could you please tell me a safe place to park.ty nice channel
There are few spots along the river clearly marked. Start with Bacon Woods or Mill Hollow off Vermillion Road. maps.app.goo.gl/nmzdrJgz42goaaJq9?g_st=ic
Awesome!!
Looks like a great time!
Very nice! Where did you purchase the material from?
I have a detailed list in the description; The rails were from eBay, the mounting brackets (towers) were from sherpaec.com/, and the aluminum extrusion bars were from www.tnutz.com/.
Question, did the extrusion already came with treads or you had to do it yourself?
I ordered the six 2x1 extension cross bars tapped and threaded. I had to tap the seventh one at the front of the rack (angled).
Masterpiece bro cheers from tampa
Great-looking build. Any noise/whistling coming from the rack at highway speeds?
When I took it on city roads, I didn’t notice any wind noise. I attribute that to the rack being low profile and mounted farther back on the camper shell. I wish I tested it before I installed the accessories (awning, shower curtain, recovery tracks and shower tank).
Now that I’ve had all my accessories mounted and got the truck on the road, it’s not bad at all. Having the rack on the camper makes a huge difference in wind noise.
Great work.
Thank you! Cheers!
I’m heading up this week where is the best place to start
Start at Bacon woods and work your way down to route 2
Nicely done! 👍🏻
Great video! Need to get them some fly rods in their hands
everybody takes these exotic trips for hog trout and seriously'' you don't have to go nowhere but right down to rocky river and put on a mepps # 2 or a rooster tail or float some eggs and you will catch 10 lb trout . noke Cleveland.
behind every rock is a trout'' not kidding'' float eggs right to them especially in the spring when their hungry .
Was that on the north side of the river?
South side in those deep holes
nice to see foreigners getting access
Right! Hell we arent allowed in there at all! Pisses me off
Fuckin foreigners
Stop crying and apply like everyone.
@@L0rd0fTh3N3rdz thank you for your response. My experience over my 33 years of living in the US, for every racist encounter that I experienced, there are three encouraging encounters that keep hope for civility alive.
what spot is that..usually have to pay 5 bucks at cold creek trout camp then ya only got a small section to fish thanks to dumbass margarittaville
I like your Video. This is my old home......because you enjoy fishing you might like "Herring Running up river to spawn" It has some underwater shots....ua-cam.com/video/7dirlWUlDCQ/v-deo.html If you like can you subscribe, I'm trying to get to 1k subs ..Thanks for sharing..
Friend, that's his first on a fly rod, ever. Thanks for the boost.
For crying out loud...learn how to turn a fish!
That was his first fly fishing trip ever.
Where is this spot at on the river? Is it cedar point hill or around that area?
