A person need to know the fish hunter The trout is the name of a freshwater fish characterized by their elongated bodies and a small fin between the tail and dorsal fins. A trout has a large mouth that carries forward unlike most fish, and they can appear speckled, blotched or striped, its appearance determined by the species. Just like other river and freshwater fish, their color is paler underneath. The​ ​majority of trout can be found in waters with a cool temperature​ ​ranging from 10 to 16 degrees C or 50 to 60 F. Aside from rivers, trout can be found in lakes and streams all throughout the United States, Europe and Southern Asia. Trout has long been popular with fishermen and anglers, and they continue to be so to this day.


10 tips you need to know the person a fish hunter Our Top 10 Trout Fishing Tips: Tip 1: Get the Right Equipment You will need a reel and rod combination plus some weights, line and hooks. The price of the equipment is from $20 and up, but if you’re ​serious about fishing​, get some that will last. If the rod and reel are not pre-spooled with line you’ll have to buy a test fishing line 4 to 8 lb. test fishing line and spool the line. In addition, you’ll need #6 and #10 hooks, a net and split shot weights. You might also consider getting a reusable split shot as they’re quite inexpensive. If you’re concerned that lead weights might harm the environment, purchase steel shot instead of lead. Tip 2: Use the Right Tackle The best tackle for a river trout is a light one, and you need to pair this with a rod that has a rating of 2 to 8 lbs. The simplest way to get the right tackle is to buy them in combo, and you might also think about avoiding those enclosed fishing reels that have a button that’s pressed while bait casting. The reason why you’ll want to avoid this is they’re susceptible to tangling, which can be very frustrating. However, when these reels are working, they make your job a lot easier, so you’ll need to decide which one to go with.

Tip 3: Find a Suitable Location The next step is to find a river or lake with trout in it. This really should not be too hard as the local ​wildlife guide​ can help you out. There are generally two options here, those rivers or bodies of water that have trout naturally or have been stocked with it. If both are within your reach, go to the one that have been stocked as you’re more likely to catch trout there. If you are going fishing in a river with “natural” trout, make sure you follow the rules and regulations as they tend to be a little stricter and impose limits to the equipment or bait you can use. The rules will vary from place to place so you need to check this out.


Tip 4: Use the Right Bait If you want to catch trout you must use the right kinds of bait. Again, you need to consult the authorities in your area (if necessary) for ​acceptable baits​. if there are no restrictions, you should go with canned corn kernels, salmon roe or live earthworms. You might also consider using lures such as spoons and small spinners as they attract trout. The general rule with lures is the smaller the river, the lighter the lure that has to be used. However, the exception to the rule would be rivers that are fast moving, because even if they’re small you’ll need to use a large lure. Tip 5: Cast Upstream Not too much, but just slightly as this will allow your lure or bait to move along with the current and look more natural. The general rule for catching trout is to go 20 to 50 feet downstream and cast upstream past the trout. This will do two things, the first is it gives your lure a lifelike appearance, and second the majority of fish face upstream, waiting for food to be washed over. This method also means you’ll be behind the trout and aren’t likely to be seen. If for some reason you’re “spotted” and they get spooked, you should wait for 20 minutes before trying to fish there again. Also if you’re fishing in a small river, you’ll need to rest the spot for about 15 minutes once you’ve caught some trout. Tip 6: Know the Weather Before you go fishing make​ sure you check out the weather and make sure that it’s the ideal time. The most ideal would be when there’s a rainstorm or 24 hours after it as that will drive a lot of earthworms in the rivers, attracting trout. If you go fishing during windy days, you might also have more luck since it will drive crickets and all sorts of bugs near the waters. Once you’ve figured out the weather and know where to go, make sure to leave any unnecessary gear in your vehicle and take a good look around for deep water patches. You’ll also want to look for the spots where the river turns from deep to shallow or vice versa as they’re good places to go fishing for trout. Now if there are other anglers, just be nice and ask them how’s the fish. Chances are they’ll be more than glad to help you out and find a good spot.


Tip 7: Learn the Current Ask any ​trout fishing expert​ and he or she will tell you that knowing the current is very important. The reason is simple: understanding the current is going to help you catch trout. Look for deep pools that have been produced by trout and odds are you’ll find them here. They are home not just to small trout, but even the big ones.

Tip 8: Power Bait for Stocked Trout Power bait is only for stocked trout, that is, trout that were farm raised. Otherwise, you’ll end up wasting your time. Native trout don’t go after power bait, but the stocked ones do since they’ve been fed pellets and will eat anything that looks like them. Tip 9: Don’t Forget Crawlers If you can only bring one type of bait, bring crawlers. While it’s true that some anglers don’t like live bait, crawlers are very effective. If you’re not sure what to use, just observe the trout in the area where you’re going to fish. Check what they’re eating, and use that to your advantage.


Day of my hard-earned harvest

Tip 10: The Silver Spoon For some reason, trout like to bite stuff off a silver spoon. If you have never gone trout fishing before, try this, it really works. There are many kinds of silver spoon for trout available, so find one that suits you. Better yet, bring along a few and see which works. Conclusion What these tips show is that it takes some patience and study to catch trout. Even if you have the best equipment, it won’t amount to much unless you actually took the time to study the fish, its habit, where it can be found and other ​important aspects​. While it’s true that trout can be found in a lot of locations, it takes training and special techniques to catch them on a consistent basis, and that is what the tips show you.
