Berkley Mice Tails SLAY Stocked Trout! (2 Methods to Use)

Berkley Mice Tails have been around for a longggg time in the trout world. These things are truly trout slayers! Mice tails can be a fished a few different ways but today we go over how to fish mice tails on the bottom, and how to fish mice tails under a bobber.

Both methods work very well for stocked trout. Here in Arizona, the urban ponds have been loaded up every few weeks with a fresh batch of rainbow trout. The Berkely mice tails are a great option when targeting these stocked trout.

You can get these baits at just about every sporting goods store near you, or you can find them on amazon! I hoped these rigging tips helped you all get out and catch some fish!

Berkely Mice Tail is my GOAT lure for rainbow trout fishing in my local creek in Ketchikan, Alaska! I've even caught pink salmon on it. Fish can't resist them.

I use this method for stocked lake fishing with my kids..the pink and white power bait ones. I pinch a split shot about a foot up from the hook and a bobber about 1.5 feet above that. Great for kids' slow reaction time because the trout literally swallow this bait and hook themselves up.

I never knew those actually worked . I've been fishing quite a while in Arizona . I used mainly spinners/ Flys with bobbers, but never really any luck except for woods canyon lake. That place is insane for trout . Cool vid, learned quite a bit from these cool baits .

Wooo mice tails for the win great fishing brother 🎣🤌🏽.

Great video! I love mice tails, I usually fish them under a slip float with a 1/4 oz weight, then a 3 ft leader of 4-pound floro. I've found that any current or even the wind moving your bobber is enough action for the trout. I always try to use size 6 or 8 mosquito hooks, so that the mice tails can float and not be dragged down by the weight of the line and hook. I've also heard that 18" is the best leader length if fishing on the bottom because supposedly that's how high off the bottom the stockers are used to swimming wherever they are raised.

Maybe it’s time to revisit these. I have a lot of success with spinners and trout magnets, but never any luck with these guys. Mostly fish the Salt River.

Hey new to fishing, I jsut had a question why was the yellow string for like why did you tie it to the pillar bcz u couldn’t get it out of his mouth ? What does it do?

[Devjowya]

Awesome videos man! I’m new to fishing and want to go trout fishing. What would I need in order to fish this rig?

[KimboesliceKnockOut]

I just used this yesterday and caught to nice size trout on the river.

[jjreds]

I usually fish these on a carolina rig at woods canyon. Slays

[brycedayton]

I like how the video ends right before the guy says, "Wait! Why'd you throw him back!?" as they inevitably do whenever I'm fishing lol.

[mccabrera]

Just getting into fishing now is the limit only 2 everywhere or depends state by state? Does ur child get their own limit too?

[danpost]

I have used different Berklee products, but I have not tried these yet. Maybe soon.

[jonkent]

I bought 6 pound line and rat tails for some rainbow trout season hope it works

[sithspideyy]

What size hooks did you use for the worm tail? & what’s the weight/size of the slip shot?

[j.fabela]

Stocked fish will eat anything. Even if you was to just throw a hook, into a school of them they would eat it.
Doesn’t take away the fun of getting them.
We have many places that is just a stocking areas. It’s taken kids or new people out to dish for the first time that makes it exciting.
We have fish hatchery’s everywhere in southern Idaho.
