Lisa asks…
trout fishing?
what do i need to use for trout fishing in a gorge or creek with, my uncle and i are going, and i need some tips on bait. ive already checked the laws, and i can use live and fake bait. Would some nightcrawlers and a rooster tail do any good
Joy answers:
Well if the fish you are fishing for are stocked you can use a whole hell of a lot of lures/baits. Worms will work well in small creeks and catch a lot of Rainbow trout (stocked) spinners I find more effective for Brook trout but you can catch rainbows on spinners as well. I’d start out with a nightcrawler (only like 1/3 of it) and let it float naturally downstream as far as you can get it. Then reel it in slowly giving it a few taps to attract the fish. Do the same with rooster tails or any small spinner. Cast far out and reel in rather quickly as trout are smart and like fast presentation. Well it isn’t trout season but if you live in Alaska, Colorado, Montana, or Maine you should be in luck. Other baits you can use as well are crayfish, powerbaits, and salmon eggs. As far as lures you can use small rapalas, spoons, and Berkley trout worms are quite effective as well. Best of luck to you and hope you bring home some massive trout to eat.
