My go to for trout is always a black or brown rooster tail. That being said, I also have had good success with two spoons, a Cleo and a Kastmaster. Most of my biggest trout have been on the Kastmaster!
I fish a silver kastmaster now but I love seeing that red and white spoon when I open my tackle box. Takes me back to childhood fishing my red mepps spinner
Yellow five of diamonds whether it’s streams, rivers or ponds or lakes. I found they catch all species; bass, pike, trout. If fish are there, they usually go for it!
talk water guys . Eddies , back eddies , riffles . Current , Foam LIne , Seams Not many know the language of the water better yet reading the water and temperature, Love the videos . Keepem coming
Italian Troutaholic I agree. Need to be more in depth about technique and reading water, not a gear run down every time. A lot of people want to know a lot more about many subjects that are not talked about.
In my opinion if you get out there and fish in rivers for trout you will observe what needs to be done. Of course I see tons of people at trout streams fishing wrong all the time. Standing on a rock over a deep pool just fishing the flat water.
I have yet to catch a fish on anything other than a nightcrawler or powerbait. Hopefully this year I can try some of these techniques out and land one. Question though, when it comes to sunglasses will any polarized do? Or do certain sunglasses perform better than others?
Blue and silver kastmaster is my all time favorite lure. That lure has caught me everything from trout, bass, steelhead and salmon to surf perch and ling cod from the surf/rocks.
Im in the process right now. I'm from south texas and I've been in Colorado for a few weeks, I still haven't landed a trout but I had a couple hookups for the first time yesterday so im on the right track lol. The only thing I can get them to hit on so far is spoons
Addicted Fishing great channel. Great channel to learn fishing. Im basically addicted to this channel. Big thanks. Hopefully your forest fire gets under control down in Washington. All the best from British Columbia guys. Keep on fishing !!!!
I've been using a Buoyant red/gold spoon from Thomas lures, for a lot of years, with tremendous results. It's always the first lure I use when hitting a fresh hole
For spoons I like the cast masters (the micro bluegill pattern) is a favorite. I also like the Thomas Lures. Recently I have taken interest to the Luhr Jensen brand and that has me replacing all the trebles out with single hooks in all of my spoons.
Take that same setup with the kastmaster spoon on it to a saltwater dock late august early sept when the snappers (baby bluefish) are runnin. They smash em and the light rod makes it tons of fun
C’mon Jordan, bring one of them in! You all make the best “how to” videos on YT and the other content is always lit. If I had to pick one spoon it’s the silver/blue kastmaster. Keep up the great work fellas!
What has always worked for me is casting down stream and using a very slow retrieve, just letting the spoon bounce off the bottom. Even letting it sit on the bottom for a couple of seconds. When not fly fishing my set up is a one price 4.5 foot ultralight Ugly Stik, Daiwa BG10, 10-15 lb Braid, and 1/2 oz Stee-Lee in a red and white daredevil pattern.
Beautiful fishing spot ! That's part of why I fish. Thanks for all of the knowledge, and wisdom. It's a good time to start keeping fish, curing, smoking, and drying them for future use, and trade like Squanto. Tough times are ahead My Fishing Lion Brother. Respect.......Joshua Seven Thunders///////
fishing with spoon is quite fun actually haha i usually use spoons on lakes where i need to cast a long way out. favourite weight is 10g -15g. can cast a long way haha
I love red and white Daredevils because when I was like 4 fishing with my gramma I insisted on using 1 and caught like a 4 pound rainbow in a stream, he talked about that for decades later.
It would be great if you would use high-visibility line when you're giving tutorials on how to fish the river. It's impossible to see your line. Even if you don't aim to Cath fish, a quick 5 minutes with a large high vis line would make it 10x easier to see what you're doing.
My favorite is Panther Martin or MEPS but I will start using a small spoon great videos. When you fish the small streams like that what length okuma celilo do you use?
I usually use either a gold or silver (silver being my favorite) williams wobbler spoon on all the rivers and streams I fish in Nova Scotia and I never fish lakes unless it's the mouth of the river lol This will be the year I teach my 11 year old to use one. Hes been using a spinner for the last three years for both trout and mackerel lol. My oldest (Girl- 21) mostly uses worms and a drop shot, no bobber of course. My other children aren't at all into the sport. I think we need more chicks into fishing
I really miss Arkansas I live in Florida now and there's absolutely no trout fishing streams😤 so now I have just been watching trout fishing videos lol
I found that the inverse of blue and silver, is that red and gold Kastmaster. If the fish aren't biting those a bright green or yellow spoon in murky water helps with a little bit of sent applied to the back as it attracts by smell as well as bright colors. Watched another video on the eye of a trout, as it has limited view because of the shape the fish iris. If you know there are some bigger fish get out that red and white as red helps add some aggression to the fishes natural behavior.
I love your videos. I watch them and listen to your pod casts more than the radio. Since you mentioned walleye, would you guys ever make walleye vids? I grew up catching them almost exclusively on rapalas. How do you catch them?
Greens, oranges, and pinks are the colors i get a lot of strikes on with my spoons, so i tend to aim for combos of colors in that... mixed with some half color/half metal color, depends on sun amount.
Love your videos. Been thinking about getting back into trout fishing, which I haven't done since I was a kid. You mention a mono-filament bumper on that 10lb braided line. How long should that be? It looks like you might tie on about 3ft or so? How much do you need in order to make sure the braided stuff doesn't spook the trout? I have subscribed because your videos are super helpful and well done! Thanks!
I felt so bad that all those fish kept coming off. I went fishing today, and I lost almost every one as well. I know the feeling. But this video helped me out a lot, and I intend to try some of your techniques in the future, and hopefully, increase my hookup ratio. Thanks guys!
Never fished before but ever since I subscribed I love fishing hate that I picked up in the fall but 🤷🏽♂️ it’s okay loving the hobby can’t wait to buy a hobbit to go in the middle of the hooch
Sometimes a fish will hit a spoon or lure coming up. I was using a swim jig with a creyfish trailer used creyfish proline and a bass crushed it. The bass crushed it as it came up because the bass thought its food was getter away.
Silver and Gold spoons Brother. I believe most seasoned fishermen would select these more often than other color. I will say though that I do prefer the silver and blue Castmasters over most other spoons. My personal fav is a blue BlueFox with either a gold or silver spinner. Sometimes I'll use a yellow jacket color RoosterTail. Liked and thanks ❣ P.S. what region do you live in? Im here on the Olympic peninsula and though maybe we could hook up sometime and FishOn...? 👌👍✌
What weight of Kastmaster do you recommend for rivers? Im heading to the white river for vacation and have never fished for trout. Great content! I would suggest linking exact lures used. You might even get a paid for purchases made from your links!
Spoons can be fished effectively in spill ways, allowing the current to take the lure and slowly jigging it back. Will also mimic wounded or weakend prey
How would you feel about a barrel swivel between the braid and monofilament? I’m over monofilament memory on small trout reels. Especially with rooster tails. So I’m going to try braid next
I personally love the blue and silver kast master, and the old school red and white dare devil. I will though tey your plan with the silver and gold spoons.

What lures would you recommend for a beginner that wants to trout fish?
What state are you guys in..?
When I shop for spinners and spoons, all the colors seem to work on me. The fish, not so much but me, I bite every time haha.
mmmmh, yummy new orange🤤😋😂
I used a orange one when i was a kid, so thats my go-to choice, fond memories fishing with my dad
Never used a spoon but sure will try now. Panther Martin spinners are my go too!!!
Panther Martins are the 🐐
Especially those UV ones and willow strikes. I used to think they were just a gimmick until I tried them.
My go to for trout is always a black or brown rooster tail. That being said, I also have had good success with two spoons, a Cleo and a Kastmaster. Most of my biggest trout have been on the Kastmaster!
Addicted fishing should have over 1 million subs. Best fishing channel. End of story
Lucid Marauder 🙌
Yup
Lmao I haven't seen a video yet that this dude catches a fish
Any tips for trout fishing in Oregon
It really is the best content...
Blue and silver castmaster, caught one of my biggest trout on one of those when I was a kid. Will never forget it!
That color always works for me! No matter what species too apparently, caught about 6 drums in an hour along with a channel cat
Blue and red for me
I fish a silver kastmaster now but I love seeing that red and white spoon when I open my tackle box. Takes me back to childhood fishing my red mepps spinner
Jordan you make talkin in front of camera so natural and good. That’s I tough skill. Great tips bro
Love your trout videos Jordan. I'm from wyoming so pretty much thats what we got unless you go to specific spots. Great video again as usual
Yellow five of diamonds whether it’s streams, rivers or ponds or lakes. I found they catch all species; bass, pike, trout. If fish are there, they usually go for it!
Really like the Thomas Buoyant spoons to there are very effective for trout and other species
Exactly what I was going to say. Thomas buoyant spoons can be fished in shallow water and fish level. Heavy spoons hang ass down
talk water guys . Eddies , back eddies , riffles . Current , Foam LIne , Seams Not many know the language of the water better yet reading the water and temperature, Love the videos . Keepem coming
Italian Troutaholic I agree. Need to be more in depth about technique and reading water, not a gear run down every time. A lot of people want to know a lot more about many subjects that are not talked about.
Most definitely would love to learn all you spoke of.

As a Texas guy that just got back from Colorado and fishing streams for trout the first time, I would have been lost without this guy. Thanks man!
Im in the process right now. I'm from south texas and I've been in Colorado for a few weeks, I still haven't landed a trout but I had a couple hookups for the first time yesterday so im on the right track lol.
The only thing I can get them to hit on so far is spoons
we rock trouts hard with barbless spoons, with different sizes shapes and patterns you can slap all day... 💯
Blue and silver is my go to, use it for salmon and steelhead.
Silver and blue one hundred percent, rainbows in the mountain lakes love em'!
Both gold and silver are my favourites too. Some days gold works best, others silver.
Addicted Fishing great channel. Great channel to learn fishing. Im basically addicted to this channel. Big thanks. Hopefully your forest fire gets under control down in Washington. All the best from British Columbia guys. Keep on fishing !!!!
I took your advice and my lures fly ! Thanks again for all of the advice. Keep up the good work ⛰
Tried fishing a cast master the first time the other week. Hooked a blue gil in the vent... was going for steelhead with a size 2 hook.
I've been using a Buoyant red/gold spoon from Thomas lures, for a lot of years, with tremendous results. It's always the first lure I use when hitting a fresh hole

I've had a lot of luck with Pink, Lime Green, and Yellow for trout in Alberta, Canada
Thank you! Been trying to figure out how to effectively fish spoons in current. Couldn’t figure it out today and now know my mistakes! Thanks again!
Excellent video ! I like red and white, and the five diamond spoon
Tried spoons for the first time last night and caught a nice 13" brown trout. Thanks for the tips!
*but I did stop at the store to grab a few 1/4 oz Kastmasters, and those made all the difference for these faster moving waters.
Take that same setup with the kastmaster spoon on it to a saltwater dock late august early sept when the snappers (baby bluefish) are runnin. They smash em and the light rod makes it tons of fun
Black has been my best catches. White/Silver would be the next, Bright colors after that.
Thanks! I have learned more about the correct way to work with spoons than EVER!
I just got my Celilo yesterday and am looking forward to tomorrow, to go test it out! I put the Okuma Ceymar C-10 ultralight on it.
Great video. Please review Mepps! I have caught hundreds of fish on those spinners.
Any tips for trout fishing in Oregon?
I appreciate these videos. My son wants to learn how to fish and it's been so long for me that I am basically relearning.
Thanks dude. Very informational. My favorite spoon so far is a red and gold cast master.

My personal favorite is a gold kastmaster in 3/8 oz size. Caught my pb brown on that style of kastmaster
I love using Joe Flies !!
orange and pink work AMAZING! in alaska lakes
I've caught tons of trout and kokanees on the bright orange Kastmaster. Hardly ever fails! The silver Kastmaster is nice as well.
What size Kastmaster do you recommend for creek fishing? Is an 1/8oz too heavy for shallow water or should I go for 1/12oz? Thanks! Great vid!
Plain Silver with a white bucktail works everywhere for everything up here in NJ. The bigger, the better, I've found.
fishing with spoon is quite fun actually haha i usually use spoons on lakes where i need to cast a long way out. favourite weight is 10g -15g. can cast a long way haha
My favorite has to be either the classic red devil red and white stripped or the tiger Muskie pattern
Thanks for these videos. I'm new to fishing and these videos have helped alot.
My favorite spoons are silver or gold castmasters and the chartreuse tiger striped Luhr-Jenson crocodile spoon.
The orange with black dots slays in the British Columbia interior..lakes rivers everything, everywhere
I love red and white Daredevils because when I was like 4 fishing with my gramma I insisted on using 1 and caught like a 4 pound rainbow in a stream, he talked about that for decades later.
My go to spoon for small stream trout here in PA is a 1/10 ounce Thomas Colorado spoon in gold and silver and copper and gold. 💰
It would be great if you would use high-visibility line when you're giving tutorials on how to fish the river. It's impossible to see your line. Even if you don't aim to Cath fish, a quick 5 minutes with a large high vis line would make it 10x easier to see what you're doing.
I have a lot of luck with steelhead and rainbows with the red with white stripe, and the orange with black dots spoons.
I just started and have been using swivels, trying to diversify my arsenal
My favorite fish to eat are dried and smoked lake trout, and Salmon, Yellowtail, and Bonita in the ocean.
My favourite spoons are: silver and florescent orange Deadly Dick (aka Canadian kastmaster) and the Luhr-Jensen Super Duper - rainbow trout pattern.
I caught my very first Steelhead on a blue and silver Little Cleo 3/4 oz spoon. So it just might be my favorite.
My favorite is Panther Martin or MEPS but I will start using a small spoon great videos. When you fish the small streams like that what length okuma celilo do you use?
I usually use either a gold or silver (silver being my favorite) williams wobbler spoon on all the rivers and streams I fish in Nova Scotia and I never fish lakes unless it's the mouth of the river lol

I like the gold blade with perch coloring. Works well in Wisconsin!
I really miss Arkansas I live in Florida now and there's absolutely no trout fishing streams😤 so now I have just been watching trout fishing videos lol
Pink with black dots.. Is my go too

Gold kastmaster, I have caught a lot of big trout in rivers, then Thomas gold spoon.
Recently found your videos and subscribed. Love watching them whenever I'm not on the water. Lots of good info and entertaining. Thanks from Va.
I love your videos. I watch them and listen to your pod casts more than the radio. Since you mentioned walleye, would you guys ever make walleye vids? I grew up catching them almost exclusively on rapalas. How do you catch them?
Love your show!!
Greens, oranges, and pinks are the colors i get a lot of strikes on with my spoons, so i tend to aim for combos of colors in that... mixed with some half color/half metal color, depends on sun amount.
A really good video on spoons on rivers. I’m going to try it on my river over here in the UK. 👍🏼
Great video, can you guys do a video on how to fish pink salmon?
Kastmaster. Chartreuse and silver. Slays in oregon and washington.
Would it hurt to add something like salmon eggs to the end of the spoon?
Love your videos. Been thinking about getting back into trout fishing, which I haven't done since I was a kid. You mention a mono-filament bumper on that 10lb braided line. How long should that be?

Red-bodied, yellow-spotted Little Cleo. Caught a giant brown in a little trib in NorCal.
Lucas Brister you know any good creeks in NorCal?
Deer Creek up hwy 32 from Chico as well as Butte Creek up Skyway down doe mill road.
I usually tie my barrel swivel onto the braid then use a 1 to 2 foot lead of flourocarbon and tie my spoon to the leader using a non slip loop knot.
I felt so bad that all those fish kept coming off. I went fishing today, and I lost almost every one as well. I know the feeling. But this video helped me out a lot, and I intend to try some of your techniques in the future, and hopefully, increase my hookup ratio. Thanks guys!
Love the five diamonds caught my first fish on it
background music mad fresh
Awesome video Jordan!
Never fished before but ever since I subscribed I love fishing hate that I picked up in the fall but 🤷🏽♂️ it’s okay loving the hobby can’t wait to buy a hobbit to go in the middle of the hooch
I love how you kept referencing the spinner😂
Sometimes a fish will hit a spoon or lure coming up. I was using a swim jig with a creyfish trailer used creyfish proline and a bass crushed it. The bass crushed it as it came up because the bass thought its food was getter away.
Awesome vid!! Really enjoyed it!! Picked up some Luhr Jensen Super Duper’s.. have not used them before.
We’ll see.. great content bro.. Cheers!
I like using gold kastmastrs, deadly on browns... they hit them hard ...
in straya we seem to only use tassie devil lures for trout, not sure if the U.S has them
Jake's spin-a-lure in any color.

P.S. what region do you live in?
Im here on the Olympic peninsula and though maybe we could hook up sometime and FishOn...?
👌👍✌
Silver and gold, hey, sounds like a song😀
Works in the uk! Thanks 🙏
Silver on sunny days gold or chartreuse on cloudy or rainy days also gold an chartreuse in stained water.

Copper and gold rough rider = big brown magnet!
I personally love the blue and silver kast master, and the old school red and white dare devil. I will though tey your plan with the silver and gold spoons.
Phil Hildebrand love the Kastmaster. But the fish run when it hits the water
Thats why i use it in big bodies of water or moving water...slow water like he was fishing i usually drop shot first.
