In this article I'm going to discuss the top 5 trout fishing tips that I've learned over the past 20 years of trout fishing. Some of them were taught to me by my fishing mentor, a trout fishing master in my opinion, and some have been learned through experience. The bottom line is that these 5 trout fishing tips will help you catch more trout on your next trout fishing excursion, there's no doubt about it. How am I so sure of this? Because they work for me, and I know that these tips can work for anyone.
- Pay Attention To Your Hands - What do I mean by this? Simple. Trout have a very sensitive sense of small, and the scents that are on your hands will transfer to whatever bait or lure you might be using. When a trout detects any unnatural odor, they are much less apt to bite. This is why paying attention to your hands is so important. The tip is this: Grab a handful of dirt or grass every hour or so and rub it into your hands. This will eliminate ant unnatural odors that many be on your hands
- Pay Attention To Your Shadow - On sunny days always pay attention to where you're casting a shadow. If you're casting a shadow on the hole or run you're also fishing, you'll spook the area. Trout notice unnatural things such as moving or out of place shadows. If trout become spooked, you won't get many bites. The tip is this: Always pay attention to where you're shadow is being cast.
- Don't Wear "Loud" Clothing - Trout have very keen eyesight and can easily notice things through the water. So when trout fishing you want to stand out against the background as little as possible. The "louder" your clothing, the more apt the trout are to see you. If the trout see you, they are much less apt to bite. Is camouflage necessary? No, just do what you can to not stand out like a sore thumb. The tip is this: wear drab colored clothing when trout fishing.
- Watch The Weather & Moon - What I mean by this is to pay attention to the weather and moon so that you are fishing when the trout are the most active. You see, the weather and moon play a huge role in the feeding behavior of fish, and the more you know about this, the better. The tip is this: Find out how the weather and moon affect fishing so that you can be fishing at the best times.
- Always Use Gang Hooks - When trout fishing you want to present your bait in the most natural way possible. This means using gang hooks, because gang hooks enable you to present live bait (especially live worms) in a totally natural manner. Using a single hook requires you to "thread" a live worm onto a single hook, whereas a set of pre-tied gang hooks gives you the ability to present live worms in an outstretched manner, the way God intended. The tip is this: Always use gang hooks when trout fishing.
These 5 trout fishing tips all work. You can use one or all of them on your next trout fishing outing and catch more trout. They have been proven to work through more than twenty years of fishing for trout, and will help anyone become a better angler. Once these tips are put into practice you will begin catching more and bigger trout.
