How do I set up my fishing rod to catch trout?
PLease use easy to understand language. Im a new when it comes to fishing, and the only thing ive managed to understand is that trout are popular in lakes around me, and i have the appropriate rod for trout. But i have no idea how to set up the rig or attach weights and the hook or anything!
Use very low poundage line, trout will see your line if it is too big. I use 4lb test line and i catch 6 pound trout all the time. if you use power bait put 2 sinkers approximately one foot away from your bait so that it floats. If you use a night crawler (worm) get a needle and inject some air into the worm that way it floats and put the sinkers one foot away from the worm. If you decide to use a jig or plastic bait you wont need a sinker unless you are using a light bait. when you retrieve (reel in) make your pole go up in down in a slow motion and then move your pole left and right. You can also bounce a jig off the bottom, all you have to do is figure out when the jig hits bottom then bounce your pole in your hand.
Setting the hook is pretty simple. In bass fishing you yank on the pole as hard as you can to hook it, but you cant do this to trout because their mouth is softer and easier to put a hook into. all you have to do with trout is give it a firm yank.
