Ice Fishing Rainbow Trout : No bait!!! (Selective gear rules)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Many trout lakes in the Pacific Northwest are managed with strict rules regarding the use of bait. Many ice anglers are deterred from fishing these lakes because the use of bait it prohibited. In this video I demonstrate tactics and tackle for targeting Rainbow Trout without the use of bait.
Tackle Recommendations:
For quality scent free plastics: www.contraband...
Marabou/Hair Jig: amzn.to/35PAKlW
Blob Flies: pacificflyfish...
Tungsten Scud Fly: Check your local fly shop
Euro-tackle Z-viber: amzn.to/3723TMp
Love when I see you put another video out. Nice day. Thanks for sharing
Nice video! I always enjoy your videos!
I’d say they like that blob pretty good! Looks like a nice day in the lake 👍
Good information and nice fish!
What kind of rod holder and real are you using ? Great vid thanks from Canada
I am using a Black Betty inline reel from 13 fishing and the automatic hooksetter is from a company no longer in business.
@@spiltmilt thanks from Canada
What is the name of the hook setter? I’d like to try and find a used one.
You mentioned winter die off. Would you happen to know what the average mortality rate for a lake like that would be?
It will vary greatly by lake. This particular lake is deep enough that it doesn't suffer winter kill but several lakes in the Methow Valley lose greater than 75% of their fish during severe winters.
Please advise at to where I can purchase the tip-up featured in the video please ? Thank You
No longer in production.
What were they sold as ..... product name ? Thanks
I enjoy the informational content of Your productions ..... Thank You !!!! 🎣
nice video. what device was that at 2:42 to set the hook?
Whatever it is is BS
Yeah get a jaw jacker a lot better
Great video!! What weight line are you using here if I may ask?
4 lb fireline mainline/4 lb seaguar red label leader
Where did you get the deadstick holder? Cannot find anywhere, thanks.
No longer in business
Do you know if you can ice fish at Rainy lake? That's one of my favorite places but I don't know if the lot and the highway are open on that side of the pass in the winter.
Highway is closed during the winter
I'm gonna be using a freefall reel for the first time this year what kind of line should I put on it?
I usually run 4 lb Fireline or Seaguar Fluorocarbon
What's the name and model of that auto set rod holder that you used for second rod?
Alaska Fish Trap aksalmonbear.com/product/ak-fish-trap-base-model-black-base-orange-rod-holder/
It's known as Alaskan SalmonBear. (Brand name. )
Hey Spilt Milt: nice honest fishing you got going on!!!
Ps NOT a subscriber but do watch your videos in my related topics AND good video with Dakota battery - ordered mine and am expecting it any day now...
Do you use fuse while using that battery?
Thanks and TIGHT LINES!!!
Yes I use an inline fuse on my Panoptix and Humminbird.
@@spiltmilt Thanks
@@spiltmilt Thanks for reply, how many amp fuse is recommended for those units?
Rainbow love hellgramites. Weird how there’s different rules in different places. Those spring loaded auto set rod holders are illegal here. Ontario......
frank leaney I’ve seen jawjackers not sure what that one was. Legal here in Alaska.
Just ordered some Blob’s.:)
What brand of rod holder with the mouse trap is that? Can seem to find that style online anyplace.
No longer in production.
I just checked this video out and that was my thought.... to bad they don’t make them anymore. I think I would prefer that over the jaw jacker
How deep was that ice??? Great video
4"
Spilt Milt Productions is that about the shallowest you would consider safe? I went out today on a lake with about 4” of ice but a ton of slush and snow on top. I weigh about 210 but was curious what the “minimum” is?
4" of black ice is the minimum safe for ice fishing. White ice can be significantly weaker
