You Can Catch trout Just like The Experts
Number 1. Always use ultra light fishing gear if you are fishing for trout. Too many times, anglers attempt to use medium-action gear when at the stream trying to snag trout. It's a big mistake and won't allow you to catch fish. Instead, you have to use an ultra light rod and reel and the lightest fishing line possible.
When I have fished for trout, I've found that the 4 pound mono filament line works best. Using this size line and gear are perfect for trout fishing, particularly if you are fishing small rivers and streams.
Number 2. Be aware of your shadow. Refrain from casting a shadow on the area you will be fishing, particularly when fishing in small rivers and streams. Casting a shadow is a certain way to scare away the larger, older trout from the area. Take my word for it, if you want to catch trout, you must be aware of your shadow.
Number 3. I am sure that no artificial bait or lure beats the effectiveness of a plain-old live worm when it comes to catching trout. For me, a live worm riding the current of a small river or stream will attract trout most times the fish are present. And the best way to rig a live worm for trout fishing is to use a set of gang hooks. With ganged hooks, light tackle and live worms you are well on the way to a good catch.
Number 4. Using small spinners, in the 3-7/16 range, are terrific bait for catching trout. While effective in many trout fishing situations, the small spinners are perfect for fishing rivers and streams. Popping your rod tip while allowing the spinner to flow with the current can be especially effective. Using black, browns and other dark colors with gold blades is optimal. Be sure to attach your spinner to your line with a small barrel swivel for best results. Not only will it stop your line from twisting, but it will also ensure that your spinner works efficiently.
Once you use any or all of these tips, you will be well on the way to becoming a much more effective trout angler. That's it. Just put these tips into practice, as the sooner you do, the more likely you are to reel in the big one that you previously only dreamed about.
