Hey everyone, welcome back to the channel! I’m beyond excited to share a huge milestone with you all—today, I entered my first-ever fishing derby! It was such a fun and unforgettable experience, filled with excitement and plenty of adventure. From the peaceful early morning casts to the thrill of reeling in catches, every moment was special. The atmosphere was electric, with anglers of all skill levels coming together to celebrate a shared passion. I even picked up some great tips and stories from the incredible people I met along the way. Whether it was waiting patiently for a bite or celebrating alongside other participants, it was a day I’ll always cherish.
To my amazing community of 15k subscribers, thank you so much for your continued support—it means the world to me! This journey wouldn’t be the same without you, and I’m so grateful to share these moments with you. Let me know in the comments if you’ve ever been in a fishing derby or fishing tournament and let me know what you have caught! If you’re new here, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and join the adventure. There’s so much more to come—enjoy the video!

Congratulations Faith !❤😍
Wow nice one. All the fish I've caught I've never caught a fresh water trout.😊👍Enjoy the feed😋
Faith when you are spinning for fish think of a fan shape in the water. Like a Spanish fan you use for cooling down in the heat. Cast parallel with the left bank. Do two casts in the same place each time. Slowly moving from left to right. Starting parallel with the left bank until you end up parallel with the right bank. Moving your spinner a metre at a time to the right. We use this method in Atlantic Salmon fishing in Ireland. And you cover every spot possible from the river bank. It's called fanning out. Believe me it works.

Awesome seeing others in your Merch Faith . Come on guys get your Merch, support are freind Faith. Great vid Faith, love watching you wrestling that fish lol , im still laughing lol lol
Trout like garlic power bait. Power bait likes to float. Use a sinker. Two feet above baited hook. From shoreline cat tails. Cast 20feet to 60feet. Let sit for 20 minutes. So, the garlic power bait. Floats off the bottom of lake. Trophy trout like to swallow bait. They also like swimming around. With the bait in their mouth. Next to all wild trout. Learn how to pick bait.
👍👌✌️😉
Nice Trout Faith!!!!congratulations!
❣️🌹🌹❣️❣️🍑🍑🍑
yeah, that channel everyone was at is probably a hot spot. the problem with those areas is with all the fishing pressure there. if there's 50 people in the area you have a 1 in 50 chance of a fish, if you're in a area by yourself you are 100 percent going to be the one catching fish in that area. Some hotspots though pay off even with a lot of people especially saltwater. or spawning time. The main thing is you had a good time, and you didn't get skunked. that fish will make a excellent dinner. All wins.
Your positivity and excitement are incredible, don't ever lose that. What a beautiful trout!!! I told ya before and I'll say it again get some Beetle spin lures!!! Every fish will bite them and they're dirt cheap. Tight lines homie
Ur the best thing since our fore father s
Congratulations Faith on catching a rainbow trout. 🐟🎣
Nice fish
Great content.. Keep doing what you're doing . I predict this channel will be a top 10 fishing channel within 5 years.
Great meeting you on the dock at Dixon, right before you left for bbq. Get that Tiktok channel going!
Great fish😂 So awesome.
Way to go Faith! That's a beautiful rainbow, just need some butter, lemon and garlic. Your reaction to the catch is why we all fish, its so rewarding after working for it all day. Thanks for the pic at the end, one river monster coming up ;D
WOW! NICE trout, now thats an eater!! How good was it? I bet it was delicious!! Patient's and perseverance is the attitude of any great angler, and you got it girl!👍🏼👍🏼
Sorry to be the bit of rain I am on a cloudy day but, It was a solid catch till someone helped you hold it and take the hook out😋
I have caught fish like that only for them to escape back to the drink so a fair and square solid catch, let me be clear that were not 😁
And to be clear I would not have helped unless you asked pretty please cause that's how ya learn, solid points though you'll be going toe to tippy-toe with the best of them anglers yet 😘
Awesome catch! Trout fisherman are usually great folks. Tight lines!.
Dang… nice fish, good job.

Only fishing🦈🦀⚓🚤🛶🥇🕡🪬♻️ thanks Faith. You're so awesome
Nice one! I used to fish that lake when I lived about 10 minutes away, but never fished the derby. I also knew a Kiwani past President, who coached my daughter's swim team years ago. Time to start adding catch & cooks to your lineup. This location also has decent camp sites for your survival vids. Enjoy filling up on turkey with your family.
Damn girl nice catch!
Good job faith
Good catch Faith
You should try using a spinner lure, like a Roostertail or Panther Martin, or a spoon for trout fishing. The strike is the best part!
