Trout, anyone?
Inland trout fishing season opened this weekend. I hit one of the locally stocked lakes with Randy and Tim. Randy is by all accounts the inland-trout-fishing-master. He's got a system that is about as fool proof as it gets. How fool proof? We limited out (5 trout each. 15 total) in 90 minutes. No one else around us was catching more than 1 or 2 fish. By 'around us', I mean like 20 feet next to us. Sometimes closer than that...which makes things a bit interesting.
The system is rather simple. Go light on the hardware. Use small hooks. Don't go deeper than 6'. Use 2 kinds of bait on the hook. Baits: Redworms,leaf worms, waxies, spikes, butterworms...oh and Berkely Powerbait.
Now..here's where it gets interesting...the Powerbait. There's a specific kind and color. NOTHING ELSE WORKED. One kind and one color worked.And it works year after year. Randy limits out typically in a hour while others stand next to him and get skunked all day. Want the secret? Send me an email and I'll tell you. Oh..and it might help if you buy a hat. Hey....I'm giving you the key to trout fishing success.
Bon Appetit'
