ThatKidInNY Posted December 26, 2023 Report Share Posted December 26, 2023 Over the past year or so I had been wanting to try targeting big trout with swimbaits. Unfortunately I’m in the frozen tundra for school most of the time and only get opportunities to fish for trout on winter break. It took 4 trips but was well worth it. This fish came on my third cast of the day. I stopped to check my drag 1/4 of the way into the retrieve, looked up, and saw the fish flash on the bait. I knew it was possible but to be honest I was not expecting to catch a Brown. I figured it would be a Laker bite. I didn’t get any measurements on this fish, as we were too amped up to remember. JENKINS CHANNEL on YouTube was a large inspiration that motivated me to try to do this in the states. He makes great quality trout fishing videos out of Japan. Anywho, I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! gary m, Phil A., basssavage24/7 and 30 others 33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
