[singleshot12]

Could be true Smossy I kinda think they taste like mud Smoked they are decent These are the only kind of trout I like to eat

Mossback i notice the fins are kinda worn off on that bad boy. Is that one of those old expired brood stock rainbows? I heard they really taste good

I'm in a slump of my own. I really don't get it. I've always done well trout fishing. Usually got my limit. For some reason the last four times I've gone out I've gotten skunked. I'm talking not even a bite skunked... I'm at a loss.

It deffinetly has been a wierd month....ii wouldnt think the lakes have been fished out yet

[huntnnw]

if you have light line and a light rod...use just a hook on the main line nothing else...take a whole night crawler and about mid body feed the hook in... goal is to have the worm look as natural as possible. Take and flip it out and let line out and let it sink naturally ..just watch your line on the water..u will notice when a fish strikes it will pull tight or start pulling line off the spool..set hook! this works in any lake I have fished.

Ive got a whole list of new things to try now....thanks guys

I agree on the long leeder and I do really well with putting a corky on top of my hook and using a worm threader to thread the morm up my line a little so the hook hangs out the bottom of the worm and the corkys at the top. I kill the harvest trout on the cowlitz doing this and used the same method in a few lakes and done realy well

A clear water bobber, a 5 or six foot leader(very light) and a small black mosquito fl. Cast out as far as possible and retrieve it as slow as possible.  Slams em.

Broke out of my slump. Thank goodness. Three limits in three days this weekend.

Got one Saturday and another yesterday (and lost one as well). Powerbait was working pretty good (although, only for me and not the Mrs. and kid).

Try a  different lake

 

[BiggLuke]

Use a longer leader.  3 to 5 feet depending on the vegetation in the lake.  If that still doesn't work try right on the bottom.

longer leader always works for me and 2 yellow/chartrues(sp) power eggs

  I almost always use 4-6 feet of leader. Also make sure to use a light leader. In most trout lakes the lighter you go the more fish you will catch; 4# is max, 2# is better. Make sure your baits are floating. I like a size 6-8 single for most trout bait fishing, sometimes a 10. And a slip sinker is an absolute must.

There are places on lakes that are just lousy- tried moving around

Light leader is best, Trout have amazing eyesight. I usually do 1/2 oz sliding egg singer with a bead to the swivel. Then 3 foot 4lb leader, with a size 8/10 hook. Very small. I limit out every time. Chartreuse is one of the hottest hitters right now on the Berkleys Gulp "Salmon Eggs" Pick up a pack, throw 2 on a size 10 hook, and set your pole down and wait for that bite.

Exactly what I was thinking. Try using 6 pound test.

I like using 2lbs line.
