That means you'll have the whole stream to yourself 01:20 – Colton is a talented fly fishermen 01:28 – He's been trying for ages to get me to come up to New York and fish steelhead with him. Then Nate tries to make a funny joke 01:40 – Tip #1 - Big fish like baitfish 02:02 – Do not tread on the redd. Redds are nesting areas for spawning trout and are easily seen. They are patches cleared of stones and rocks that expose the light colored bottom of the stream. Most of the time it is a near circle or oval 02:30 – Migrating fish are more territorial so this is a perfect chase to toss big boy streamers. Such as the Beef Curtain (TheFlyCrate.com/product/beef-curtain) and the Shumaker's Shimmering Minnow (TheFlyCrate.com/product/shumakers-shimmering-minnow) 03:05 Tip #2 - Don't give up. Winter is tough and requires more discipline. But, it is highly rewarding and can produce a lot of fish for you. It may take dozens of perfect presentations before you get a strike 03:28 - Trout group up in deep pools to rest. 03:40 - Keep moving. Explore the whole stream and maximize your day. 03:45 - Tip #3 - Be the delivery guy. Trout don't care what you give 'em as long as you drop it right on their nose. 04:22 - Be prepared for the cold and don't shy away. 04:40 - Invest in a good pair of gloves and never look back. 04:50 - Go to TheFlyCrate.com/four-fly-fishing-lessons-fall-winter to read Colton Orbaker's article entitled, Four Easy Fly Fishing Lessons For Fall. 05:10 – Go to TheFlyCrate.com/free-trout-flies to get your FREE barbless Euro Nymphing Assortment your first month when you join our Troutbum Monthly Fly Club plan.

Time Stamped Show Notes: 00:19 – Today’s topic: How to Use Weight in Fall & Winter 00:30 – Throughout the winter months there is not a whole lot of topwater activity 00:52 – Nymphing and fishing streamers are your best bet, right now 01:02 – Trout migrate into deep pools and pockets in the winter, thus your flies have to get down deep 01:18 – Use split shots, tungsten putty, heavier flies, or build a multi-fly rig to get down deep 01:30 – Reusable tungsten putty from Orvis is fantastic and doesn't leave a residue on your line 02:00 – Split shots are great because you can adjust the weight or your rig with ease. Plus, there is only so much weight you can tie onto a fly 02:28 – Joe Humphreys is a master of using split shots and will even store a handful in his mouth 02:55 – Go to TheFlyCrate.com/flies-weight-fly-fishing to read more about Tyler Tasci's article, "Weight, What?

Not too much weight but just enough. 04:04 – Don't be afraid to adjust your weight. 04:06 Every hole and riffle will need difficult amounts of weight because the speed of water flow and water depth will vary 04:45 – Go to TheFlyCrate.com/free-trout-flies to get your FREE barbless Euro Nymphing Assortment your first month when you join our Troutbum Monthly Fly Club plan.
