I’ll be fishing with Golden State Fishing Custom Baits—including Spartan Minnows, Mini Spartan Minnows, and Mini Jigs—to show you the most effective retrieves, line setups, and lure presentations for targeting trout in clear, shallow water. You’ll learn how to read structure, identify feeding zones, and trigger aggressive bites even when trout are spooky or highly pressured.
If you’re looking for urban fishing tips, shallow water trout techniques, dropshot alternatives, mini jig fishing tutorials, or the best trout fishing baits for beginners, this video has it all. These methods work year-round and are perfect for stocked trout, wild trout, and big holdovers cruising near the bank.
