Ice Fishing Brook Trout - Under Water View!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Stumbled upon some of the coolest ice fishing I have experienced in the brook trout state, aka Pennsylvania. These fish were holding in a small area of shallow water in Lake X, I had actually spent a couple hours punching a dozen or 2 holes in different areas of this lake before finding the fish, once I found them I realized that the original video I was trying to make which was pretty revealing wasn't going to fly, so I scrapped that and just made this video of underwater views of Brook Trout reacting to different jigs and baits. What started as super slow dismal ice fishing turned to some awesome sight fishing and I had to come back as soon as I could for another session.

I can't even describe how much joy this brings me to see these gorgeous trout in such an unvarnished and intimate setting, so natural. And the colors are just breathtaking!!! You are one lucky MFer t have been able to have such an experience. Made my day, vicariously that is. Thanks so much for posting, dude!!!
Magical place...and some of the strait up dopest footage I've seen in a while.
thanks man.
@CAPTAIN COURAGEOUS lmao why are you so mad about what he says and does
This lake definitely has stocked fish. You can see their worn out fins from the hatchery. Love the underwater footage bro!
Concrete raceways are hard on fins!!
Yeah but they eat everything when they are stocked in a tiny pond!! This dude is a fucking joke. If he would have just said it's a stocked pond then nobody would care but he act like he stumbled up on this place and its a "honey hole" he can't tell anyone about. Because it's "small" LOL yeah because it's a fucking stocked pond on someone's property!
Sticks n stones u prob can’t catch a fish anyways lol
@@sticksnstones4357 he said they were stocked at the end
Excellent footage. I never realized how beautiful brookies were, I always thought rainbows were more colorful. Between this vid and the underwater striper blitz footage, you've provided some of the best fishing videos I've seen in good while.
This might be the best commentary in a fishing video I've heard in a bit.
Last time I was this early, Sea-Money Fishing invited me to fish. Nice Trout, by the way! Killing it!
So hyped for the Fl vids Leo!
Extreme Philly Fishing come on Florida videos!!!!
Live in the phoenixville area, would love some new buddies to fish with.
Extreme Philly Fishing and fodk
XD
Obvious you have to be stoked with all the positive reviews of this video. Definitely the best video of brook trout I've seen, ice fishing or other. Beautiful fish captured perfectly on video. Tight lines.
thanks man!!
hands down, best underwater fishing video!!! sickbstuff here man...
topnotch fishing I would be scared to drop the camera
We don't have brookies over here in the UK, but I reckon they have to be the prettiest of the whole Trout family. Amazing colours and markings. A long time ago in our local river our club stocked some and they were great fish. UK rivers now are very strict on what is allowed to be stocked to protect the wild brown trout.
Footage of fish hitting the lure or bait while ice fishing is so awesome. And with the way those brookies were being, oh boy is this video a hit!
Wow! World's best ice fishing video hands down. Never saw it this good, ever.
the commentary on this is A+. i laughed the entire time.
Some of the coolest footage I've seen. Very nice job! Tight lines!
I watched this for the 5th time now and I really enjoy watching it every time :D
thats insane those are giant brook trout for around here and the amount of them is crazy and through the ice craziest thing ive seen and that pickerel was huge like probably state record
Definitely one of the best ice fishing videos I've seen.
I love how you're roasting the trout during the video 😂
He's got anger
Love fishing on arctic char species, especially sight fishing. Had some of my greatest fishing moments on ice-sightfishing for arctic char! Eventhough in my personal experience the brookies are much less frightened and much more willing to eat compared to the original arctic char!
Nice video again mate
One of the best ice fishing and underwater videos I've ever seen. Awesome commentary by the way.
thanks a lot glad it was enjoyable
That pickerels huge! Probably because it gets unlimited trout to eat though.
I do think he might have been up there looking for an easy meal in the form of weak stocked trout
Sea-Money Fishing god vidio
That was a pike, my dude.
I was mesmerized. You know i hate you kidding. Thanks for the video!
I love your vids. I am a PA native to, I'm down in South Central PA and have been wanting to do some ice fishing for trout, like etc. I have to say this is some of the most awesome and informative footage I have ever seen. Keep it up.
thanks man glad to hear!
easily one of the best underwater fishing footage
Cool perspective! Id say this and the striper blitz are some the coolest underwater footage I seen.
thanks man!
those are some fantastic shots! we just went ice fishing our first time in New York... no trout, but we caught some sweet underwater footage of pike eating our live line perch! thumbs up!
Love how you added the narration instead of having all the noise and not understanding what your saying real nice professional video, never have I seen a brookie hole like this. Love the angry trout part lol Good for you man
Great video! You can only pray for a day like this on the ice. In central New York we've had warm weather and rain this week, so no safe ice that I know of.
Dude sweet vid my mom doesn't let me fish during the winter but your vids give me that fishing high I need
Idk if that’s a chain pickerel. The patterning looks like a northern pike, which would explain the size too.
Josh Dewitt that’s a northern pike lol
It’s a pike for sure.
the best trout fishing video on UA-cam entirely very pretty footage
This is one of the best fishing video i had seen. do more video please.
Dude this is CRAZY!
I'm jealous as hell.
Thanks for your amazing vid
So jealous! The season has yet to open where I live (Newfoundland). Loads of ice on the ponds tho. February first can't come soon enough, thanks for the content keeping me content until then!
Nice one, I like the underwater footage.
Ayy did not think you would be here
WoW! You don't see that very often..Well I don't anyways! Great find! This is definitely the best Trout Ice Fishing Video out there! Those are beautiful fish! I live in Maine and I've never seen Brookies eat like that! AWESOME!!
theres a few ponds in PA where they release the old breeding stock from the hatcheries. And youll get a lot of those big gnarly ones
Do you know where i can find some lol i live in PA
@@virtualtrips1239 Sullivan County. Get out topographical maps and locate a mountaintop swamp. There's a good chance of finding a beaver pond in the swamp.
I was told where to find one when I was fourteen. I didn't go looking for it until I was twenty. I decided to follow the stream all of the way up to the top of the mountain. I caught at least eighty fish on the way up and I stopped counting. Once I got up there I was to fire three shots with a five second pause between each shot to let everyone know I'd arrived safely up top. What a hike, what a view and what a nice, two-acre pond. There were scores of small brook trout and some very lage brookies. I caught a 15" trout on my third cast using a #1 gold Panther Martin.
Getting back down I was to fire two shots with a ten second pause when I was on the move. I had a three hour hike over rugged ground going back down but I didn't want to spend much time thinking about that. Two hours into my descent I broke out my Maglite to make sure it worked and it did. Fifteen minutes later I heard my brothers calling my name and I yelled back. My father later said he could hear me back at camp. It was full-dark when my brothers and I exited the deep woods, around 9 PM. Through the breaks in the canopy nautical twilight was starting and we could see the stars which looked light back-lit diamonds on black velvet. I believe there was a new moon 🌚 but starlight aided our night vision.
If you decide to try something like what I have described, go with someone if possible, buy a Personal Locating Beacon and let concerned parties know where you will be and where you intend to be. The more details the better.
@@TralfazConstruction what is the name of the stream that lead to the pond?
@@fishingmidatlantic6610 I'm checking. I recently found out that the dam to Mountain Springs Lake failed some years ago and it wasn't repaired. The lake as I knew it in the '90s no longer exists.
One time, back in the '70s I was catching rainbow and brown trout with my hands while standing in that stream as my younger brothers watched from the bank.
@@fishingmidatlantic6610 endlessmountains.wordpress.com/2012/10/21/goodbye-to-mountain-springs-lake/
I think it is called Bowman's Creek. It's named in the article. Everything I knew about that lake is touched upon in the article. When I first started going up to that area fifty-three years ago, all of my father's fishing and hunting buddies knew that lake and they would take _their_ families there. We used to pick blueberries right near the foundation of the old ice house that once stood there. It's got some history alright.
Amazing footage! You were jigging up Brookies like they were perch. Well done bro!
My son and I experienced the same kind of Brook trout fishing in northern NH in December... Not sure the final count, but over 20... Hatchery fish... 10 to 15 inches... but they would swim right up into the hole... not much for a fight... Still awesome to see 3 or 4 Brookies fighting for your worm in your hole... thanks for the video...
Great episode. That is National Geographic footage. Amazing how they behave.
one of the best fishing vids ive seen in a while
what is this a frickin brook trout farm lol. that's awesome!
This is a really good video man, one of my faves from this winter on youtube period...
We fished a place very similar... Brookies are fun for early ice season targets!
What’s the name of the name lace you fished?
love northern pa. i have a cabin in potter. theres so many of the mountain spring ponds all over of the place full of nice trout. id come across them a lot when id go way back woods beaver trapping. i came across this moutain spring that was had the biggest beaver dam i ever saw in pa, the shit looked like those massive dams down south. wading through there were muliple brooks taking off. the way all those streams and creeks intertwine up there id imagine you could find some monsters out it those backwoods ponds.
Where is a good pond to catch brook trout through the ice?
Nice early season thin ice, most people won't touch it but its usually the best fishing of the year
Nice to see it's cold enough for some real ice up north. Here in eastern central PA I'm forced to try my luck in the rivers and creeks for trout.
WOW, very nice sized Brookies! I thought you had to go to Canada to find Brook Trout that size. Awesome that you keep these places secret, protect the fishery from over fishing. Great video, mahalo from Hawai'i.
Every time I feel a knock on my rig I automatically think I have missed a bite, but so many times they have simply bumped into it. Fascinating viewing. The information you have provided is going to be a great help for me. Is the still water deterring them from taking the bait. I imagine that it’s hard to replicate natural prey in these conditions. I only have the option to fish on fairly fast flowing rivers. Obviously, there are spots where water converges, but I seldom have much success. I tend to catch more fish in the faster water of about 2-4 ft deep that is running over boulders. I have only been angling for trout and grayling the last year, or so. I use the bubble and fly method and have had moderate success. I would like to learn how to fly fish, but I have limited knowledge.
Thank you, sir.
by far sickest trout ice fishing video ever
This is soo cool I hope you come back here in the spring for some blue gill/ crappie fishing (if there's any in there)
Awesome footage! It's nice to hear you talk about what's going on in the video, recapping your experience
As always, you keep bringing amazing content, can't believe these boring ass bass fishing channels get millions of views when there's this kind of videos around. Anyways, keep up the good work, looking forward to your next videos!
thanks man!!
This is one of my favourite ice fishing video!!!
Doesn't it suck how you have to keep things secret. My wife and I got in many arguments last season because I pushed hard to catch 40" muskie cause I know eventually people will catch on and they will be gone......good news is it paid off! Worth the arguments
amazing video. keep that spot a secret theirs not many left.
I love fishing hatcheries too!
busteddddd I was at the hatchery haha
Ha ha ha. Drastic times call for drastic measures....
Sea-Money Fishing where were you fishing? I live in northeastern Pa
Lmao at least he admitted it... kinda lame tho.
Too bad it takes hatcheries to find fishing spots like this back east. I've seen brookies this thick in ponds and lakes out west. Some are so thick the poor bastards are all head and real skinny, starving trying to find enough to eat.
those fish are beautiful, they have so much color, nice video.
Kinda like your underwater weakfish video, love the footage always cool to see
Brookies are actually char, that was some great ice fishing. When I was young in New England I would find a tiny spring feed Brook and garden worms, ferocious
Dream hole right there! I am fishing for my first brookie currently. The lake I am aiming at has the highest amount of 3 inch perch i've ever seen so it's been difficult. I saw one on camera finally but couldn't hook it before all the perch came running back in. I'm going to be more patient with my hookset after watching this footage. Great job.
That's so awesome. Place is loaded with trout. Nice clean water too
Lol the commentary is awesome on this video!!! Cool shots.
This is the best ice fishing video out there man, this is wicked keep it up!!
Brookies are gluttons! I caught a 2+lb fatty with a garter snake tail sticking out of its mouth and the backbone and skull coming out the backside, snake had to be 2.5ft long, and it STILL ate my jig! I was only 7 or 8 at the time too. Was a mountain lake in Quebec (same mountains, more snow, and the hillbilly's speak french.) that was full of brookies, bugs and not much else so they become cannibals when they outgrow bugs. Or y'know snakes, mice whatever gets swimming in the kill zone. The food is scarce in winter in cold clear lakes , that triggers aggressive competition which you filmed beautifully. Ya, the brook trout is the fish worlds equivalent of the chihuahua (known man-eaters, given enough time.).
one of the most beautiful fish in freshwater by far!
One of the most AMAZINGLY awesome Brookie vidios [Salvelinus fontinalis; Char fm.] I've ever seen! TX4S!
Are you from Sweden? Btw I wanna fish trouts and the red ones in Sweden we call it röding. What baits would you reccomnd? If you are from Swe what stores are good to buy from then? :)
Great video of gorgeous brookies! I wouldn't tell a soul where you are fishing. As soon as you do there will be 100 guys there the next time you go and many guys are going to do C&R but be killing those awesome trout. Very pretty brookies. A couple looked to be close top 14". I wonder if you could go catch them in the spring after the ice is out?
Trout are a beautiful fish... So cool hopefully I'll go ice fishing One day...
Awesome video, this is the type of video where you'll get a million views
haha that would be nice
14k to go!
There lol
lol just saw this video and saw ur comment. He’s at 1.5 million views
Sea-Money Fishing 1.6 mil now
That water i so clear ! I mean we got pretty clear water here in Colorado, but dang !!!! Great for the aqua vu!
Excellent job all around - super camera work, nice fish handling!
Nice video! I have always wanted to do more ice fishing
What a great video. Thanks for the beautiful footage and the laughs.
I love fishing white ice. Looks like you guys are nice and shallow. But be safe :D! Nice fish too
the Swedish pimples are my favorite I've caught 10 trout with changing out with a orange worm on one of its hooks it was fun great video
really cool video! Crystal clear, stable footage,! I absolutely love trout, especially brookies! Well done!
That was a seriously wicked video, so awesome to see them up close and personal. Cheers.
One more note to add being of my personal opinion , the most beautiful looking fish in the world are indeed Brook Trout .
You guys killed it. I'm hoping to do some ice fishing in PA this winter and would love to have a similar day as this.
Great video was really interesting to see how the trout were reacting to the bait
Awesome Trout man! Next time you're there, try setting up with a large square hole to sight fish for them, its serious fun that way.
dont know how i missed this one. this is some awesome footage
This is the kind of stuff I like to see. Thanks.
Omg that's like a dream spot!!! Lol
Yeah I never caught stocked brook trout all natives
This is an amazing Video.
Your hilarious man. Thanks for this insight on how they react and how to jerk the jig. Awesome stuff
Great video, and love the fact that you released them to enjoy another day. Cheers
That was sick man I would love to be able to have the chance to fish an area like this!
Fishing With Finn Rght? In Cali all we have is barely legal planters that fight and taste like carp.
Awesome video! I've never seen anything like this! Very entertaining and definitely some beautiful fish.
Rainbows too? I think I know this lake. The shallowness of where you are fishing fits a profile.
What lake is it ?
@@fishingmidatlantic6610 There are probably a number of lakes that fit the profile. I thought it _might_ have been Mountain Springs Lake in Luzerne County because years ago _I_ fished there and caught rainbow trout and brook trout there. I believed that just because I fished there then it _must_ be Mountain Springs Lake.
There was an ice house there some decades ago. Where the foundation of that ice house was there were some blueberry bushes there and i once gathered several quarts of those berries.
Now I have found that the lake is no more. It was drained in 2012. I was last at Mountain Springs Lake in 1998. That's quite a long time ago and I thought it was more recent.
sweet footage man! really enjoyed this video!
this is freaking aweomse! grea view under ice and seeing these trout react.! good fishing bro
I use my hunting blind for ice-fishing. it helps so much for seeing down the hole. I got the aqua-vu cam for x-mas this year. can't wait to get out and try it.
Greetings for the Antipodes, Nice video Mate, enjoyable watch, liked the cometary to. when they're on they're on. We have days like this, but less ice.. Subbed. Cheers, Craig
these are some sick camera shots, thanks for sharing this with us
That's insane man! Absolutely unreal brookie action
Pretty sure that "Musky" is a Pike, but sweet video all the same. In Northern Ontario, we get stocked Brook trout and splake lakes, and a ton of natural Walleye/Perch/Bass/Pike lakes. I assumed Pike were super common throughout most of the northern US as well, but maybe not that far east?
Hey sweet underwater footage I was wondering where you were trout fishing at the darby creek spot back in May I fish at Darby creek and have never been to that part
glad u r doing fresh water again
