Trout Fishing Tips!

Be sure to try catching a Rainbow Trout before the Stocking Season closes. Here are some tips to help in your effort!

Catch and Keep Rig Works For Trout!

Try the Catch and Keep Rig for Trout. It uses a small worm weight or egg sinker, a small snap swivel, and a size 10, 12, or 14 treble hook.

Bait it with PowerBait, Corn, or your favorite bait and adjust the line length to the hook as needed.

Also, do use it for catching and keeping trout and not for catching and releasing as the trout tend to be deep hooked. This rig is for getting food on the table.

Also, when fishing the rig, no need to use a "rip thy lips" technique. Instead, reel the slack on the line and feel the trout swimming away. Often, the trout will have hook itself!
