I never fished Leduc Reservoir before but always knew they stocked it every spring with rainbow trout. Over the years I have heard that some may overwinter and get to large sizes. I also read that this lake is notorious for sending anglers home with the SKUNK rather than a nice fat rainbow trout.   I read every single AO message on this lake and nothing really ever reported back as a positive.  So I made it my personal challenge to go there and catch some of those fat fish. I was determined not to take the skunk home with me. Since the reservoir is only 10 minutes from my In-laws farm it makes a quick outing. So I headed out early one frosty morning and launched my boat. I trolled and casted every lure known to man all over that piece of water for no bites. So around 2 pm I landed right where I launched and started to fish. Turns out that is where all the hungry fish were and I hooked up on seven but only got one on shore. Took him home for dinner and called it a day. Hope these tips in the video can also help you catch some of those fish on the reservoir.  The fish was a fat 13 inch rainbow and full of water boatman.

Sorry this is a bit late but finally getting around to making the video.  Had so much footage from last trip.  This was Day 2 at Leduc.  Went out to Beaumont in the morning and lost two.  One on a boatman and the other on a kastmaster.  Then headed back to Leduc in the afternoon and caught two rainbows on a Thomas Buoyant Cyclone in red and gold, had a hit right at shore on a small rebel crankbait and a few other hits.  Here is a video of the fishing at Leduc Res Day #2.  The colors and leaves were amazing there made for really nice video.
