I'm into trout big time. Here's my general rule with trout.
If you can see them ...they can see you.
Once they spot you they get lock jaw.
Sneak up on them. Approach from downstream if you can .

They might be suckers, I have been fooled into thinking I was seeing big trout during high water and they turned out to be suckers........

I just got back in from Trout fishing. Well actually I didn't get to fish. Went to about 4 diff ponds. All the ponds are still frozen over. Nothing was open. Some still have 8 inches of honeycombed ice.  There was a few guys who were about 100 ft off shore jigging through some cracks but I was all set with maybe taking a swim.
Most of the rivers are in a raging torrent also. |

if they arn,t suckers odds are they are browns // get up stream /usually on the other side of the road or further up if its just a small bridge //
float down stream a live mummie[minnow, chubs , whatever you want to call them // hook them thru the lips /if they don,t take it on the drop ==which they will if they are browns / then very S L O W L Y retreive  |
ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!

I also agree I have been fooled a lot of times by suckers especially in rivers and brooks with Brook trout. the best way besides bait would have to be a fly rod. I would go with some type of streamer or nymph. And yes Striperknight is right your going to have to sneak up on them. trust me. |
