Lake Michigan trout run is heating up. Home*ish* waters have finally settled down enough to fish. It's hammer time!

Wanted to get a good budget UL setup for trout fishing. I have a lot of experience bass fishing but very little trout fishing experience. I’m used to just tossing power bait and waiting but I wanted to try different techniques. Current gear I have are medium/medium light, so they don’t work for me when I want to toss light spinners and jigs. Any thoughts?

I was just wondering if you could go year round and catch trout at spots that are stocked. Obviously native Brooke's will always be present in the tiny feeding streams but I was looking to fish the gandy creek or cranberry river for stockers but I didn't know if had to fish right when they are stocking or if I could catch some stragglers year round. Do they actually get fished out to the point where you can't catch them on the off season? (Both streams I mentioned are in WV). I would just like to know before I make 2-3 hour trips to trout streams for nothing. Thanks in advance!

24" rainbow caught on a small crank bait in SoCal

Anyone got any tips for big trout on jerkbaits? I fished the clinch river today using nothing but jerkbaits. varying 2 1/2 inch to 3 1/2 sinking, floating and suspending. Had 2 giant rainbows rush it then stop and stare. That’s about all the action they saw lol. The portion of the clinch i fished is below Norris dam but above weir dam. No generators running. I’ve got one more day off, I’d love to snag a fatty if anyone has any advice

Caught this turkey on Thanksgiving. 

What’s up with this trout?

Hi all!

Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃🍂

I've had a hectic few months since my last trout trip. Today, I finally had some time to share. 

First, I posted back in the spring about float tube fishing. I'm happy to say that I purchased a Caddis Nevada float tube and used it this summer. I love this tube and don't regret my decision to purchase. It's nearly 6 months old and looks brand new. If you're considering trying a tube on a trout stream, go for it! It's a fun experience. Make sure you get boot fins for your waders. 

2nd, I finally reached my goal of getting my first ever North Georgia Trout Slam!! (Rainbow, Brown & Brook)
I've been trying to get it for a few years now. Those Brookies are hard to catch! I was glad to see the time and work finally pay off. 

Here are a few pics of the fish and my tube setup. (Bonus pic of a monster a young man caught after his family asked me for tips to help him catch his very 1st trout, 18 inches!!)

Tight lines!!
