Re: I am bad a trout fishing

If you were that close to the fish you were entirely too close. Also 'plopping' your bait almost on top of its head will almost never elicit a strike. At the least they'll ignore it, at the worst they'll take off for cover. Lose the swivel. Present your cast well away from the fish or likely spot and allow it to drift into the desired location in as natural a manner as possible, as close to the bottom as possible. They may be hatchery raised but they're not entirely stupid, nor are they blind.
