Reeling in the Big Ones - Secrets for Trout Fishing
by Winnie Voshell
One of the first things you need to do in order to be successful when you fish, is to learn the traits and quirks of the fish you want to catch. Knowing this will enable you to be more familiar with the particular habits of those fish. Trout fishing almost demands you learn about them because they are smart and well-equipped creatures. Don't expect to have a good catch if you use generic techniques on trout. In order to be successful with this smart fish, you have to become familiar with their habits. Here are three important trout fishing tips you'll definitely need to know as a good starting point.
Being alert to where trout like to spend their time is one of the most defying things for trout fishermen who are new to the sport. Expanding your knowledge about the role of the water temperature is another way to increase your acumen. The total amount of dissolved oxygen in the water that trout require is higher than for other fish. The temperature of the water and the surface action play an essential role with dissolved oxygen concentration. Some trout like brown and rainbow will put up with higher water temperatures if they can get the oxygen they need. Supposing the water is warmer, you should look for a spot that has a current moving. You can usually come across ripples and tumult, which come about because of the moving current. These spots will have a larger amount of oxygen concentration and perhaps the trout you are fishing for.
Where you place yourself in a stream makes a big difference as does the way you entice the trout. Most or many fish, including trout, look in the direction of where the water is coming from for food. There is some degree of fish smarts because why fight the current when they let the current help them. What you need to do is go along with this and allow your bait to float along with the current. Just avoid making jerky movements, and you need to be smooth with how you do it. OK, now you are determined to become a trout fisher, and the next step is to buy a rod and reel. There are rod and reel combos that are made just for trout fishing, and this is what you want to find. What you want to look for are the light action models. If you really don't have a clue where to start, ask the professionals at your local sports shop. Most employees at sports goods stores are glad to help you pick out your first set of gear when you are a newcomer. However, just so you know, the trout rod you pick shouldn't be any longer than six feet in length. There's no need to get a monster reel, just one that matches the length of the rod. As far as the line that's on the reel, you want to stay less than 6 pound test. Don't go any larger than these specifications. You can, however, choose to use a lighter rod and reel.
You should try to develop a number of approaches, and you may know that bait that is live is popular. Fly fisherman also like to fish for trout, and you should add to your repertoire. One of the favorite live baits for trout are live worms, but be sure you are using the right size hooks, etc. What happens with bigger hooks is the worm will wrap itself around the hook and then it doesn't look like a worm anymore.
Don't fall into the error that a lot of trout anglers with no experience do. They buy hooks that are way too big for the trout. Hook sizes are critical for trout fishing just like choosing the right rod and reel are important. Now, you can go with fly fishing in which case the hooks will be set and small to begin with. You have enough challenges to face at the moment and you don't need to be adding the complications of fly fishing to the mix. Don't use a hook any larger than a size 8. This is for safety's sake and to give you a better chance at catching that elusive trout. If you insist, you can go up to a size 10, but that's not the ideal size. Choosing a size 8 hook will just make your life simpler.
Your line will also be subjected to drag caused by the water. If you want your bait to appear natural to the trout, all of these factors play an important part. If you use a longer rod, it's possible to use line that has a smaller diameter. Therefore, the drag on the line will be reduced. It's important that you understand how changing one thing can have an effect on the final outcome. Stay observant and note which changes cause which reactions by the trout. Learn by doing different things to refine your technique and catch the trout you came after. This is true for any type of fish you wish to catch. Keep in mind that your beginning set up for trout fishing won't be expensive. However, it's very important that you put in the time to learn about trout fishing. You will find there is much to learn and a lot of it will be new information for you. Once you learn what you need to know, you can go out and catch trout confidently.
