yesterday myelf and member JPlugz managed to stumble onto some monster trout hanging out under a railroad bridge. they were facing into the current and drifting from one side of the stream to the other. i'm not sure if they were waiting for food to pass by or if they were washed downstream with the high water and were trying to get back up. whatever they were doing, they were BIG. we threw every spinner, spoon, and small jig we had at them but they wouldn't budge.

anyone have any ideas how we might connect with one? i might even go buy some shiners or dig up some worms cause i gotta see how big these things really are. maybe we were presenting our offerings wrong? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
