I love bait fishing for trout, especially on quiet peaceful days. Where you fishing for hatchery or wild trout? I've never had luck with baits like powerbait or pautzke bait for wild fish, the fish always come up to the bait and turn away. I have much more luck with shrimp and dew worms for wild trout. Fake eggs don't work for me either.
These particular fish, like most of our trout in lakes, were from hatcheries. They were released when they were yearlings and the ones you are targeting in the lakes have been living in them for one or two years.
Cool, thanks
You and Bill Dance have the same hook set lol
Fisch1 😂
never seen a clipped fish in a lake in bc before.
That's correct. Almost all of the fish being released into our lakes are unclipped. They are only clipped for one reason, research projects.
Another awesome video . . . . great information and fishing guidance. We appreciate you brother!
Thanks!
Nice. Hey Rod have you try trout magnet before? I hope you can do a review.
I want to fish with you so bad
That was quick, and a good reminder on fishing culture.
Can you link your video on the sliding float setup video you mentioned at 1:48?
Good idea, I'll do that. Thanks for suggesting it. :)
Fishing with Rod thanks! By the way, I really enjoyed this video!
Why did you leave the girl in the car?
I prefer biodegradable forms of floating trout dough baits. The firebait leaves glitter on top of the water once the %90 that is biodegradable is gone...
B G, very good point!
nicley done Rod tight lines
Thanks!
Hi Rod, as usual a great video. Hey, what’s the road like getting in there. Is a 4x4 required?
Many thx!
The gravel road to Shea Lake is generally well maintained and regularly graded. Perhaps not a 4X4, but you probably don't want to drive a sedan to it. There is one section that requires a bit of clearance.
awsome Rod makes me wanna go to the lake now lol ...I Enjoy when you host it's getting kinda boring with Kitty #truth ..
You can expect to see more of this then.
how long does it take you to get ready to fish after unloading?? . you have to be tired when you start ??
That's the disadvantage of not having your boat all ready to go on the trailer. Setting it up usually takes me about 20 minutes. I'm usually not tired from that, probably because I'm excited to get out. It's packing everything up afterward that's tiring...
I have to try this lake!
Hi Rod! Beginner man here again. I have a question about pulling the line when you see the float sink.
Do you pull it as soon as you see the bite - like 0.000001 seconds right after the float sinks or do you wait for half a second or a second for the bite to get deeper?
Thanks so much!
For trout, my strike is almost as soon as the float completely disappears in the water. You'll notice that there are some smaller dips which I did not react to in the video, those are mostly from smaller fish.
Ok. Thanks so much!
It is such a pleasure to watch ur new video. Thx :)
Good to hear. Thank you. :)
why do you have to stock your lakes rod ??
Our lakes are stocked because most of them naturally do not have these fish, so stockings are done to provide angling opportunities.
Nice having a whole lake to yourself. Never happen here in California.
We are incredibly spoiled here for sure. There isn't a shortage of lakes to choose from (800+ stocked lakes, plus many more wild lakes) so it's easy to find waterbodies that are unoccupied. This time of the year the lakes are especially quiet due to the river salmon fishing season.
Canada has more lakes than the whole rest of the world COMBINED. no joke
hey rod nice video, are the put and take ponds/lakes in bc stocked in the spring and fall or only in the spring? i noticed that your video showed a nice healthy population of the stockies for the fall. here in alberta the lakes and ponds are stocked twice in the spring and are usually fairly fished out within a month or two. i have seen the odd lake being stocked once in the spring and once in the fall and to me that seems a more likely plan so there is fish for the winter season. stocked lakes here gets hammered so hard.
It depends on which fishery. For the urban lake fisheries, the stocking strategy is similar to what you have described for Alberta. Fish are stocked in spring and fall, and the average release weight is around 250g. These fish are known as "catchables" and they are expected to be caught right away so restockings are needed to keep the fishery going. In lakes like this one where I was fishing, they are stocked once a year and the average release size is a lot smaller. They are usually released when they are yearlings (~10g), and are not expected to be fished until the following year. Our lakes in the interior region are highly productive, so these fish have the ability to grow a pound after one year, a couple more pounds after two, etc. Harvest pressure is also reasonably low, so there isn't a shortage of fish. In fact, harvest rate is too low at some lakes so fish are not growing as fast as they should due to high density.
thats great info for the last few years they have been stocking way smaller fish in alberta in hopes of varying sizes but it boggles my mine that alot of anglers still keep and harvest fish so small. some are being stocked a just a few cms while average is around 16cm or more. i talked to various people about how i wish they can stock once in the spring and once in the fall but they tell me it cost more. but my thoughts are they are raising enough for stocking lakes twice. how is it costing more as my thinking is split volume of fish and cost and do it once in the spring and once in the fall.
The most expensive fish to stock are the ones that are released at up to 250g, because the large amount of food they require in a short duration. The other factor that limits stockings is space, which also costs money. Hatcheries only have a finite amount of rearing space so managers have to take that into account when calculating how many fish (and types of fish) they can raise per year. And one last factor is labour. Stockings take quite a bit of man power. It's not labour intensive but it's time consuming. A lot of time stockings cannot be done in two different times because there are other tasks need to be completed at the hatchery during that time of the year (spawning, egg collection in the wild, clipping, etc).
take me out fishing rodney

Love the vids keep it up
Thanks. :)
Love it !
