Lures used –
-Panther martin spinner (1/8 ounce, silver), Damiki vault (1/4 ounce, black holo)

Rod/Reel/Line:
-Shimano JDM Aldebaran BFS XG Limited (8:0:1 – 10 lb suffix 832 braid, 10 lb seaguar invisx leader – alberto knot) with a BPS Bionic Blade micro 6’6″ med/fast

—————————————-­—————————————-­——————————–

Recommended gear – Ultra light or light spinning gear. 6′ to 6’6″ light or medium/light spinning rod with a finesse spinning reel. Use 4-6 lb monofilament, 6 lb fluorocarbon, or 10 lb braid with a fluorocarbon leader. Fly gear is also very effective for trout fishing.

Tips – Besides deep pools and fishing beneath dams another high percentage area are eddy’s, which are small whirlpools that trout can rest/ambush prey from. A prime example of an eddy is a big rock in the middle of fast moving current, the whirlpool forms directly behind the rock.

Another tip is to start downstream and work your way up when fishing (I did not do this in this video). When walking downstream, you can sometimes spook trout that are positioned looking up towards you.

Effective water temps – Trout feed most actively in 50-65 degree water temps, they can tolerate 35-70 degrees, 75+ is lethal to them X.X

Ideal conditions – Trout bite well in sunny or cloudy conditions, the main factor that determines the quality of fishing is water temperature.

Colors – For dough baits use pale yellowish colors in clear water, chartreuse or bright colors in stained water. When fishing lures, use silver/gold to imitate minnows in sunny conditions, solid white in overcast conditions, and firetiger type colors in heavily stained waters.

Hookset – Use a lighter hookset than you would for bass, a light “sweeping” hookset is all that is required when trout fishing. Also, since light line is often utilized, using an excessive hookset will increase your chances of breakage.

Retrieval – Cast upstream when possible and retrieve your bait with the current for a natural presentation. Casting cross current is also effective, but avoid casting downstream whenever possible. Use faster retrieves when fishing in the prime 50-65 water temp. range, then slower retrieves outside of that.
