The cold weather has had me cooped up in the house the past few days so I figured id share a few pictures from last years trout season. Me and my buddy thought the big one was a seeforellen until DEEP confirmed that it was a wild trout. All caught on artificials and RELEASED.

I've been fishing for trout since I was 3 and have always loved the action.
Browns are the ones with the appetite while rainbows are the aggressive and acrobatic ones. Brookies are fast and fun. Tiger trout have a combination of a brown trout's appetite and brookie's energy. |

Other than using worms, power bait, and mealies this spring, here's a list of certain lures that are trout river killers.
Mepps Aglia
Worden's Rooster Tail
Panther Martin
Rapala Husky Jerk HJ-6
Rapala Flat Rap FLR-6
Rapala X-Rap XR-4
Rapala Original Floater F-5 & F-7
Rapala Jointed J-5 & J-7
Silvers, whites, grays, golds, browns, and oranges have always been my best producers. Purples and reds are good too. Any of those Rapalas in colors imitating and actual shiner or type of trout are perfect. Gold and copper colors on those Rapalas also work well. |
