I love trolling rapala gear and I did so well with trout I went and chucked some countdowns during steelhead season and caught 2 running them through shallow riffles. The shape of the countdowns pinned the fish in the corner of the mouth.
This is a fine example of good healthy competition as a result we all win , based on what ive seen I plan on having both trolling flies as well as rapalas on hand
I am a Rapala guy. And I have bought your Fly Collections. When the bite is tough I have more success with the fly and several times only the fly works. Fun video - I will be watching for the Kayak video.
Yes planning that video now
Would like to see a 3 way heads up between the fly of your choice the blu/silver rapala & the blu/ chrome pirate mag lip just for kicks & giggles in my experience ( just my 2 cents worth) the mag lip nourishes the rapala
I like your videos havent seen them all yet but enough to say im gonna pull the trigger on your metal head fly kit & try trolling flies in tulloch lake which is in my backyard & you cover all the other nearby lakes but if youve covered tulloch I missed it any input appreciated ill be fishing from my 12 ft gregor using a 15 hp yamaha 4 stroke trolling slow as it will allow
I slay with trout with a rapala countdown in rainbow trout color
Great choice!
I always swap out the hooks on Rapala's, for a wider gap treble hook and stronger metal, and sometimes they don't track properly and need a little tweak. I have some of your flies Cal, and look forward to getting to the mountain lakes in Colorado to give them a try, but for now it is still wintertime in the high country !!! Always enjoy your videos.
I wonder about adding a J style hook to the rear of a Rapala...You could use a larger hook that way without increasing the weight.....
Love your videos like always so useful...from wa state can't wait to get to my mountain lakes and troll too bad there's still full of snow TIGHT LINES
Good luck!
Hi Cal tanks for post your videos
No problem 👍
There is no one best lure or technique, tactics change as conditions change. That's half the fun!
Yes
Did you run leadcore, or downrigger?
Try replacing the rear hook on a Rapala with a fly
How many flies vs Rapala if you got twice as many flies you should be catching twice as many on them
So what model Rapala was used?
A small floater
Outfishes the rapala apologize for not checking my post
The Rapala beat the Fly every time!! The challenge gotta be up and up, but the Rapala caught more than any single fly, so the single Rapala, beat the spread of fly's!!
That wasn't the rules of the game....Rapala king said a Rapala would out fish my Entire spread of flies.....The Rapala performed great, but by the rules the flies won... The Rapala beats flies every time? That's a bold statement....
I'm going to do a head to head challenge out of my kayak when I'm done guiding...One Rapala...One fly...Same depth, same speed, same angler, same tackle....That should eliminate some variables...
In Folsom I've caught more fish on a F11B Rapala than any other lure. For Kings, your pearl minnow tubes behind a 360 flasher catches 2:1 more than S. Shiners (for me)
Folsom is a great Rapala lake....
I know the flies won based on the terms laid out but base on those ratios I think would have wanted to pull at least 2 rapalas.
The Rapala did well....We got all the fish we wanted that day so.....
3 flies to 1 Rapala…
Yes I addressed that in the video…. I’ll do a 1 to 1 comparison in the future…..
Did you run any weights on the Rapalas?
How do you like that electric motor
I like it a lot but it was expensive!
Hey I'm a subscriber and watch the channel almos every day but Cal, you need to learn to pronounce "Rapala". Your mispronunciation of it drives me nuts!
Don’t go nuts!!!!
RAPala, rapala - tomato tomahto !
