Fishing Trout Successfully - Tips

When fishing for trout there are several factors you need to consider to make sure you get a great catch. Your tackle is one of the most important things you need to consider first. The rod and reel you choose is at the top of the list for assuring yourself of being an effective and productive fisherman. You don't want to get the cheapest, but you don't need to get the most expensive either.

Also, don't grease the leader. This will make sure it doesn't sink too deep and will not cause difficulty getting the lure and line out of the water. If floating, it will have a shadow and scare away the trout.

Most trout are caught using the dry fly when trout are surface feeding, but using a wet fly if below surface feeding. Sometimes you will need to change your fly if you are getting no bites and this can make all the difference. Eventually you will find the fly that works for that particular body of water.

Lakes that are in higher areas tend to be more rocky than the low lying lakes and won't have a lot of brush or weed cover. The water will be very clear and will not have many places for the trout to find cover in the rocky lakes, although any trout found there will very likely be larger in size because they will like the clear conditions and deeper water.

Make your first cast your best because the trout will in most cases strike at the first thing that floats above it. Use the lightest possible line when trout fishing to achieve more success.

Although the trout are hitting in the upper or middle end, don't neglect the lower end.

Trout can be very selective and choosy and can try your patience. Sometimes using a lesser hackle fly or using a fan wing will do the trick.

Trout fishing can be a lot of fun. Use a few of these tips and you'll have some mighty good trout eating.
