snagmaster Posted December 24, 2010 Report Posted December 24, 2010 Hi all, Been a while since Ive posted....Happy Holidays OFNers Looking to find brown trout roe to fish the rivers. Does anyone know where I can find some to buy??? Also, do you guys think rainbow trout roe will do the trick as a substitute?? Snagmasteral
canadian_copper Posted December 25, 2010 Report Posted December 25, 2010 ONLY PLACE TO FIND BROWN ROE IS IN A BROWN LOL IF U HAVE TO USE ROE(WHICH IS PERSONALLY MY LAST RESORT) I LIKE CHINNY EGGS. NICE AND BIG. U CAN GET CURED RAINBOW OR CHINNY ROE AT MOST TACKLE SHOPS BUT IF U WANT FRESH YA HAVE TO CATCH ON YOURSELF. OR HATCHERIES SOMETIMES SELL IT I THINK. GIVE RIVERWOOD JIGS A SHOT A THE 3"BERKLEY PINKIES. YOU WILL FIND THEM VERY PRODUCTIVE AND ALOT LESS MESS THEN ROE
ctranter Posted December 25, 2010 Report Posted December 25, 2010 Brown roe> Bow row> Salmon Roe> stuff they sell in little bottles I don't think you can buy it in any store, and I doubt there is a hatchery that sells brown roe. I caught a nice female brown months ago and the roe is still dynamite. good luck.
Cudz Posted December 25, 2010 Report Posted December 25, 2010 Sorry I can't help you at all. Just wanted to say that we miss your reports around here. Merry Christmas.
snagmaster Posted December 25, 2010 Author Report Posted December 25, 2010 Thanks alot guys. I figured as much. Guess Ill try Rainbow roe on the lower niagara. Thanks for the kind words Cudz. I miss being one here, just so busy with work. Merry Christmas to all
sirfish Posted December 26, 2010 Report Posted December 26, 2010 Find yourself a donation of juicey steelie skein and tie it into quarter size balls and start from there. I save some skein from the previous year and use it as a start till I get my brown. Good luck.
BillM Posted December 26, 2010 Report Posted December 26, 2010 Lower Niagara right now? Big ass emerald shiners..
WeedLine Posted December 26, 2010 Report Posted December 26, 2010 I have a freezer full. You can have some for free.
canadadude Posted December 26, 2010 Report Posted December 26, 2010 (edited) Try Yarn or streamers, they may be going on the winter streamer bite soon, roe slows down in the winter. Try Pete's tackle they sell hatchery Brown roe 10 bags $5.00. I think they sell it loose awell, still expensive but a better deal. Edited December 26, 2010 by canadadude
