Yeah growing up I was always reading how hard and intelligent wild trout were. I can't think of a fish easier to catch than a wild brown trout on a spinner. It almost gets too easy at times. Same goes for wild bows. Brookies are a little tougher but still easily fooled.
Bigger(i.e. trophy) trout(>=15") are harder to fool but they also represent only about 1-3% of the overall population. It may not be they are smarter just aren't that many around.
