    Is this a good size brown trout?

    Totally kidding! Caught this beast on a streamer yesterday. Measured 25”. By far the biggest I’ve caught. Was an absolute blast to land this guy.

    Need new bait/lure ideas

    I'm new to fishing for trout and bank fish at a local lake. Caught some last week but now nothing I try even gets a nibble. The water is fairly shallow and I can see them swimming around my hook and leaving.

    What I used successfully last week: Rooster tails Powerbait Mousetails Bee moths Worms Trout eggs

    What should I try next? Thx

    NC Trout Fisheries

    Good morning, everyone!

    I'm was considering trying some new trout water up in NC the next time I'm in North Georgia.

    So, I had a question for the NC Trout fisherman. How are the trout doing up there? I've heard from some that it's not good post-Helene.

    Being a Helene victim myself in another hard hit area, I can definitely believe that. I still have a damn hole in my own roof, and the land here is very scarred from the wind damage.

    If anyone has an information to share on the trout fishery in NC, please share.

    Thanks!

    What are your gloves for winter fishing?

    Is this going to be my first winter season fishing. Right now I have some generic Walmart gloves that I cut the finger ends. Do you guys recommend a full waterproof glove or stick with a finger less? What are you guys using?

    Fishing fast water

    I learn to fish for trout in small shallow streams in Northern California. I have since moved to Bakersfield Ca. We have the Kern river here. My first experience fishing it is the flow is so great my small spinners mostly just skip on the surface. I’m going to try again with some small repalas. Rainbow trout pattern. May be some heavier spinners. But on ultra lite gear even a small plug with a lip will bend the rod pretty good. Lot of people fly fish this river but I don’t see how a fly would work in such powerful fast water. Any advice would be appreciated.
