Im sure this is a rainbow (caught in VA). But is the change in coloration/patterns due to it being native or wild? The dots mainly.

Kill before putting on stringer?
Planning on keeping my catch for the first time, do I kill the trout before I put it on the stringer or do I wait until I leave? Does it change the flavor of the meat either way? 60ish air temp 35ish water temp. Thanks

Can I fit 125 yds of 8lb braid on 2 size 500 reels?
I bought some 8lb braid recently, and I will be using it for trout. Do you think I can stretch 125 yds to two size 500 reels. Should I use backing? Is cheap 8lb mono good for backing? I have some left so I thought I could use it in order to stretch the line I have into two reels. Also planning on using 4lb fluro as leader.

Light vs Ultralight
Just purchased a 7'6" light/fast Okuma celilo rod which I thought was a ultra light when I bought it.
I have a brand new Pluger president 25 with 4lb mono and would be casting trout magnets, small spinners/spoons and small soft baits in a river.
Should I give it a try or buy a ultralight?

In The Water
Why do some trout anglers fish in the water? Sometimes they’re only 3-4ft from shore.
Does that increase your odds of getting a bite?

Wish I got a better picture for scale. Probably my PB
Used a mouse tail with about 2 feet of leader on a Carolina rig. Used all different powerbait, worms, salmon eggs, and mouse tails reigns supreme!

First time wearing waders and it was so worth it. Caught my PB
Got waders for Christmas and decided to bust em out today cause the rivers here aren't frozen right now. It was wild wearing them I was chest deep dry as a bone and walking through the water it felt awesome and the best part is I was able to hit spots I couldn't from the bank. Was a great day

Ultralight dropshot for stocked trout?
Saw a guy the other day catch a limit with a UL dropshot. I live on n socal and the fishing is TERRIBLE. I was wondering if any people who live in the area think this is a viable rig to use?
