@@hookjawhunters9419 that’s sucks. Here in northern ca I’ve seen several lakes partially drained. They always are able to leave the main body. These aren’t reservoirs I am speaking of but mountain lakes so the dams aren’t actually holding all the water back.
Perspectiveflip, BearxBunny, and jayejaye y’all didn’t need to out yourselves like that. I mean you ALL managed to prove in your statements that you have never been fishing, you don’t know anything about fish, and you don’t know how massive that fish actually was.
For a couple of years me and my buddy tried to catch this huge rainbow in our local lake. All the rainbow trout there where about 7 inches but there was a few giants. Anyways when they drained it we found one of the dead ones that weighed 15 pounds after most likely losing weight. And I still wished they wouldn’t have drained it so we might’ve have caught it
That is such a travesty!!! There has to be a better way then how they go about it. Conservationists work so hard and it ask gets flushed away like that. The same thing happens around here every once in a while. So sad to see so many great fish lost.
Conservationist? Those are fish we put there for game and if we didnt put them there they wouldn't be there anywhere we want fish they poor in thousands and keep millions of spawn at the fishery. Don't worry about concerving game fish that we produce by the billions in the USA and fill water artificially until we are happy with the fiahing. Bass were planted into all the manmade lakes as well....there are only natural rivers human.dams make lakes and humans fill them with game fish.
Great and informative video! Yes, that kind of waste is shameful and at 68 years old I would have showed up to help transport those fish! Heck, let all the kids have a free fishing day and quickly transfer the fish from hook to containers!!!
Ayrshire Rivers Trust have netted, removed and relocated thousands of trout from similar reservoirs in south west Scotland when they have been drained. It is accepted practice here, that native species are valuable and should be save wherever possible. It is an extremely difficult and expensive task but worthwhile.
@@michaelbandeko3519he never specifically said tiger to be fair, you wouldn’t get them in Scotland naturally because around the UK and Ireland the most common trout is just the brown trout
I live on the Platte River in Wyoming for 44 yrs. Caught many HUGE trout. That is a amazing tiger trout, 101/2 lbs, maybe a hair more. Great stuff thanks.
Yeah that was a big tiger but 15lbs? 😆 no..... absolutely not, I've caught several mackinaw that were a LOT bigger than that and was nowhere near 15lbs. Granted I know the body structure from a tiger trout to a mackinaw is a good difference but still makes it easier to gauge from "THIS BIG TIGER TROUT VS IVE NEVER SEEN A MACKINAW IN PERSON." 😄

one thing, sculpin dont feed on algae, they are mainly scavengers and actually feed on primarily crustaceans and small fish. the mottled sculpin in particular actually feed on afwuchs which are small colonies of microscopic crustaceans but wont turn away a weak minnow or a dead fish.

About 6 years ago when I was about 10 we had a little private pond, my friend would come over and me and him would go try and catch a massive tiger trout that was in there, the water was most crystal clear and we would always see the giant he was easy 8 or more pound fish and one day we caught him and it took over 30 minutes to real in with to of us
Hallow its so sad to see all this and know that many lakes are low in water we are going to Cedar City next week what & where do you recommend to go fishing for trout ? we are traveling from Torrance Ca. any tips you can provide its greatly appreciated. thank you.
betting it died - maybe getting beat up through spillway or low oxygen - then "beached" when the initial surge of water from opening spillway receded. You could see flattened grass where he was walking. So, either others fishing or water flattened that grass. Nobody would just leave a fish like that.
Why do you suppose those trout were high and dry on the bank? We ran across some huge browns like that in the Eastern Sierras, but they had claw marks and their heads were chewed off. Locals said the bears only eat the heads when times are good because of the nutrients. When times are bad they’ll eat everything. I’m just going to say, the coyotes, skunks and raccoons gotta eat too. Cool video and love your enthusiasm.
Got to love our government, letting shnit like this happen. As an angler myself who lives in upstate NY, I do a lot of traveling mostly out of the state to find good fish because my state sucks for trout fishing. This video makes me sad.
The government didn't drain that reservoir. In Utah where this is filmed we are in the middle of an extreme drought. People use that water for growing crops to make a living and supply people with food. That's what this reservoir was built for, not exclusively for fish.
That has got to be the saddest, most wasteful and great loss to any and all anglers. In hind site that record trout could have died from not getting enough oxygen as murky as the water appeared and as large as that beauty was, very sad waste.
4:28 This was the best part of a sad video. I live in CA and if you want to talk about forest and wildlife management here... its sickening. Fish end up dead on the bank of lake because of drainage and the trees are all burned to hell. All these things could have been prevented, but the federal government says "let it burn".
Perhaps the river had a big surge of water when the lake was initially drained, causing it to flood briefly, and then drain quickly, leaving a bunch of fish stranded along the edge of the bed.
Horrible how things like this happens ! Sad news is after lake is drained the creek will have less water and no fish ! Big thumbs-up down on draining the lake ! You done a great service for filming the devastating effects on it . It makes people aware of what really happens when you decide to drain lakes .
I remember her in PA a hatchery broke open from high water in the winter. All the fish went into a big local creek. Well the first day of trout season I caught a 27 inch rainbow rhat was about 12 pounds. Idk it even lived in that creek. Never got it mounted tho because it was a hatchery breeder.
bro i came back from summer and went to fish my favourite pond 20 mins away from my home ( it’s in Belgium, it’s rare to be able to fish there ) btw i also caught the biggest bream of Belgium and France but anyways i came back and it was gone. And huge carp were laying ( biggest ones I’ve ever seen )
it was so sad all the died fish, and there lot more lake going dry. if we dont get more rain and snow this winter where going have to lake up another sport and that will be very sad. keep up the videos.
Wow. Insane. Sucks that fish wasn’t able to be caught I can only imagine the fight it would’ve put up. Keep doing your thing man

Wonder how those fish got on the bank?
Probably flash flooding
You make so much sense. Keep that passion, my man. We hear you, and I hope these crazy politicians do, too.
Not 15lbs but still a giant
Why are they draining the lake?
been fishing utah all my life..... no way that fish was over 7 lbs!
It’s hard to tell on video. I trust the person who was there.
My guess was 8-9 tops. No way it’s 15 though
Lmfao I caught a 32 in flat head yesterday that didn't look much bigger I believe your wrong
I already liked the video waiting for the ads
Got to love our government, letting shnit like this happen. As an angler myself who lives in upstate NY, I do a lot of traveling mostly out of the state to find good fish because my state sucks for trout fishing. This video makes me sad.
Have you tried fishing in south Louisiana, I’ve only caught speckled trout because I don’t really fish for trout but we have some amazing fishing
@@texasred7408 I've visited PA and VA, but most of the best fishing I've found is in the western part of NC bordering Tennessee.
There is great trout fishing in upstate NY what u talking about .lake Ontario tributaries r top notch
The government didn't drain that reservoir. In Utah where this is filmed we are in the middle of an extreme drought. People use that water for growing crops to make a living and supply people with food. That's what this reservoir was built for, not exclusively for fish.
Was a catskills resident x 15 yrs... some EXCELLENT fishing there 20 yrs ago... we told its getting rough tho.
Now you found the 15 pound fish! Whoa Whoaaaa! I wish you had caught it. Still jealous

Hey man! Found you by chance and now I'm binging to get caught up. Keep up the great content!!!
Thanks man! Really appreciate it!
So what happened to those fish? Why the drained that lake? Any info and where is this creek located
That has got to be the saddest, most wasteful and great loss to any and all anglers. In hind site that record trout could have died from not getting enough oxygen as murky as the water appeared and as large as that beauty was, very sad waste.
I am new to your channel. I love your videos. Just curious, what state are you in?
4:28 This was the best part of a sad video. I live in CA and if you want to talk about forest and wildlife management here... its sickening. Fish end up dead on the bank of lake because of drainage and the trees are all burned to hell. All these things could have been prevented, but the federal government says "let it burn".
are any of these tiger trout Wild-stream born or all they all stockers I don’t think tiger trout can reproduce together
Perhaps the river had a big surge of water when the lake was initially drained, causing it to flood briefly, and then drain quickly, leaving a bunch of fish stranded along the edge of the bed.
Horrible how things like this happens ! Sad news is after lake is drained the creek will have less water and no fish ! Big thumbs-up down on draining the lake ! You done a great service for filming the devastating effects on it . It makes people aware of what really happens when you decide to drain lakes .
It's mindblowing there's so many tiger trout since they're a sterile crossbreed.
I remember her in PA a hatchery broke open from high water in the winter. All the fish went into a big local creek. Well the first day of trout season I caught a 27 inch rainbow rhat was about 12 pounds. Idk it even lived in that creek. Never got it mounted tho because it was a hatchery breeder.
Im new to all the fishing stuff so one question: why not pick up dead fish?
The Mepps Minnie lure is honestly one of the best I’ve ever used caught some nice trout on it
That was so insane. Huge!!! Why do you guys think those monster trout were just sitting there dead on the grass intact?
What state do
You live in wanna take a trip and get on some big trout with my buddys
I'm a dude and all but... your eyebrows on fleek boy. Exquisite.
EDIT: This video is kinda like how a disaster movie starts. "hey large dead fish" ...
Finished video. Cool finds, crazy man!
Where is this at ? Idaho or Montana maybe?
Utah
The thumb nail reminded me of young Goku
bro i came back from summer and went to fish my favourite pond 20 mins away from my home ( it’s in Belgium, it’s rare to be able to fish there ) btw i also caught the biggest bream of Belgium and France but anyways i came back and it was gone. And huge carp were laying ( biggest ones I’ve ever seen )
Rapalla is my fav lure for trout. You should get up to Lake City Co. Talk about serious trout. Oh, and Sandpoint Idaho have the giant Kamaloop trout
Is that utah? reason i ask is because we are in a pretty big drought and all of the reservoirs have barely any water in them
it was so sad all the died fish, and there lot more lake going dry. if we dont get more rain and snow this winter where going have to lake up another sport and that will be very sad. keep up the videos.
Pee in the rivers
Hey man, how are you going to check the state record, if you neither measured nor weighed the fish you just found?
They should have tons of fishermen come over when the lakes are drained… they’ll be thankful
8:26 angles are everything. Mind tricks.
Yo this is so sad to see, all of Utah has been struggling so much with low waters and resovoires draining. Do you do any ice fishing?
