Trout Fishing Tips
Bait and Tackle Winter trout fishing in Dec. 2007 to Mar. 2008 Let’s start with what trout bite on. Trout bait is a very important part of your fishing strategy. So what are the various types of bait you can use? Well there are plenty, you have power bait, night-crawlers, salmon eggs, cheese, bright color bubble gum, live bait, lures and you can even make your own bait. I have a list of common sense tips to help any one improve their fishing trip with the least amount of trouble spots that pop up during the average fishing day. Read this list before you go fishing, so that the tips are fresh in your mind. Trout Fishing Tips - Power bait: When using power bait it’s always good to use just enough bait to cover the hook. Power bait is bright colored dough that has a fishy smell and some baits come with glitter. Trout Fishing Tips - Live bait: When using mealworms or night-crawlers be sure you use active worms that have a lot of movement to them. Trout Fishing Tips - Salmon eggs: When using salmon eggs, handle them very gently, do not be tuff on this bait because they are soft and can be crushed very easy. Trout Fishing Tips - Cheese bait: When using cheese bait, make sure that your bait is soft and not hard. Hard cheese will not stay on your hook, it will break up. Trout Fishing Tips - Bubble gum: When using bubble gum be sure not to use gloves, because the gum will stick to the gloves, and it will be very hard to get off the gloves and on the hook. Trout Fishing Tips - Lures: When using fishing lures use the right size lure. There are 1000’s of lures to choose from, a person can be overwhelmed with choice. I will name the one’s I use often that have proven to be very good. Storm Wildeye, Live P-nut Bunker, Mirrolure Mirrodine 17mr, Rapala, Walk B, Berkley Gulp, Squid, Lander, Flasher Series, 1/0 – zuri crystal minnow magnum, and Williamson live Spanish mackerel. Be sure your lure is about 1oz zinc in size. Trout Fishing Tips - Home make bait: When making your own bait you can use a can of play-dough with garlic and glitter. Mix 2 oz of play-dough with 1oz of garlic and a1/2 oz of glitter in a small container. Then use the bait in proportion to the size hook you’re using. Roll in little balls just big enough to cover the hook. Trout Fishing Tips - Rods and Reels: You have hundreds of different kinds of reels for example, you have Abu Garcia, Ambassadeur 5600 ext., Okuma Salina, Daiwa Dendoh power – assist, Van Staal VS275, Shimano Torium 50 and so on. These are all great reels but are very expensive. You also have a lot of different kinds of rods you can use. There are thousands to choose from like a 6 ft. Lamiglas Kayak or Shimano tiralejo surf. These are also very expensive but excellent rods and very dependable. Care and maintenance is the key to lasting rods and reels. Trout Fishing Tips - Water and weather: Trout love cold water. In lakes and streams trout will hide around rocks or go deep for cold water. If the weather is hot trout will go deep under water to keep cool. If it’s cloudy you have a better chance to catch the big one. Trout Fishing Tips - Hooks and line: When fishing for trout you should have 10-12 size 3 prong hooks, just big enough to put penny size bait, power bait, salmon eggs, bubble gum or your favorite home made bait on it. If you’re fishing with meal worms or night-crawlers it’s good to use an 8 size hook so you don’t kill your bait and it will stay alive longer in the water. Trout have fair vision so try to use a 10 pound test with soft action fire line or triple fish chum line is always good to use.
