You_Only_Live_Once_Fishing Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 hi, i am 15 years old. i have multiple fishing rods, and two ok fly rods. i caught 4 rainbow trout today. I want to spend around 50 dollars on hooks and tackle for trout. what should i get, what is the best powerboat colors? Quote
CenCal fisher Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 are you fishing lakes, ponds rivers or streams? I trout fish streams quite a bit and mainly use either inline spinners or trout magnets. I don't use power bait that often because it's not as exciting as artificial lures and I tend to hook the fish deeper than i would like when using bait. Pick up a few panther martins, rooster tails or meps spinners in the 1/8th and 1/16th size. I would get one with a gold blade and one with a silver blade. Trout magnets sound like a gimmick, but they do catch fish. Get either white or black trout magnets, but you need to use four or two pound line if you want to cast them a reasonable distance. I also carry a jar salmon eggs though I almost never use them. Quote

Super User everythingthatswims Posted April 9, 2016 Super User Posted April 9, 2016 I don't use spinners. Ever. Trout magnet, gulp minnow on a jighead, and some sort of floating scented egg are the only baits I even bring with me 90% of the time. 1 Quote
Super User Scott F Posted April 9, 2016 Super User Posted April 9, 2016 Are these trout wild fish, stocked full grown into small lakes, or stocked as fingerlings? Quote
You_Only_Live_Once_Fishing Posted April 11, 2016 Author Posted April 11, 2016 thanks, the trout are stocked 10-16". Quote
