Here is a Video Guide to help with Old Betsy thanks to Maka91:
You have to fish in the spots marked as "hard" on the map ie: Golden Trout (Hard) located directly south of Rye and Sons Aviation. Also I found it really helps if you change your bobber by first holding down  then while holding press  and while the Fishing Rod is highlighted press  to switch your bobber to the one that is the same as the fish you are trying to catch. These bobbers are:
Basic Mayfly
Hybrid Sturgeon
Salmon Egg
Bass Popper
Trout Bugger |
