Hey guys,
I am at a total loss when it comes to fishing for trout in holdover/trout lakes and reservoirs.
Next year I would like to give live lining/trolling for them a try a couple times.
I have some questions:
-tips on live lining bait and the use of strike guards?
-how to properly set the hook/when to set once the fish has taken the bait.
-trout & bait location when wind is pushing them
-properly fishing the water column
-optimal water temperature.
-the use of lead core and leaders
-the use of trolling artificial bait vs live bait and proper tackle for live bait.
I don't plan on hammering trout all year, I will prob go a couple times in the spring, mostly to nnj holdover lakes and maybe a trip off rt78. catch & release only (no pics posting/spot burns either! ).
I know these are VERY specific questions and any help is appreciated. PM's accepted & i can always trade info !!

Thanks, John
