Trout Fishing Techniques?

[monsterfish]

To be honest, stocked trout will bite literally anything. They are raised in hatcheries and fed with pellets. Practically anything that looks attracting will have them bite, whether it's because they're curious, or just plain hungry.

I saw my friend cast an empty hook and caught one on the same hole I caught one.

Just like fish in a fish tank, they're looking up to wait for food to hit the water.

Obviously, as time progress and they spread out and grow, they learn their habitat, then it's a different story, but first few weeks of trout season, anything goes.

I'll be out opening day at cheesequake trying my luck from shore. Good luck to you.

Edit: i guess i should add technique lol. Ill be bringing one pole with an assortment of spinners, sticks, artificial worms... maybe some trout dough. I'll be fishing and walking til i find where they are hiding.

Forget the bubble get yourself a glass fly rod off ebay. They're a blast! Work good for stream smallies too.

A not-so-secret lure for stocked trout is a piece of tan/brown foam rubber about the size and shape of a pellet of Purina trout chow.
