P.S. nice catch.

"Whole kernel corn was thefavorite. Athough we did have some luck on red salmon eggs and using a black and yellow rooster tail. They were delicieous eating around the camp fire that night."

Both in 2006 and 2007 we went to Colarado. Of all the things I didn't load up in the camper the first trip was my fly rods...they got left by the door. Luckly I had both ultra lite and lite tackle. Of all the baits I used, worms produced the most. There wasn't one place I fished that I didn't outfish the locals, which was a surprise to me. I used a clear bobber, the kind you can fill with water and riged it on a slip line...with a split shot about 6" from the hook. I cast it out and retrive at about 6' intervals. Let sit about 30 seconds and retrive. Caught more then my creel limit each time. Same thing can be done with a fly, just rig float to a fixed posistion on the line. One nice thing about CO is once you buy a license you can get it renewed by the day...for an extra one time fee of $5 you can fish with a max of 2 rods. One of my favorite spots was a lake just before getting into Telluride. Also at a Stare Park which I can't recall the town it is located close to at the moment...did real well there also.



Did quite a bit in Yellowstone, but NO natural bait and no barbed hook.

Man that is some pretty country!!

My uncle lives in Iowa and has a trout stream in his backyard. He uses strictly wet/dry flies.

He call himself a "purist" whatever that means.

Hey Tuna man,

I'm still using some of those programs you turned me on to some time back. I don't know if you remember, but thanks again.

Check out the great lakes on King Salmon,Steel head trout,rainbows .Upstate NY has a lot of fishing for trout and salmon species.Best time for kings is during the spawn in Polaski NY on the black river in late Oct early november.

Or check out Kentucky a friend told me about some nice trout streams.

Hey alan,



Easiest way to catch them is with small spinners. Size 1 or 2 mepps in gold or silver blades.

Or panther martin spinners 4x or 6x. Gold blade, body black w/ yellow spots, or silver blade with yellow body red spots. Fish upstream, cast to likely spots in deeper water or near downed trees or brush or current breaks from boulders etc... Be careful to walk quietly along the bank or they will hear you! (No I am not kidding.) Cast upstream and let the spinner sink toward the bottom then begin your retrieve slowly. You should feel a steady vibration from the spinner blade spinning or actually see it flash as it turns. Fish usually strike on the first few casts to any spot so if nothing happens keep moving up river. And strikes are obvious when they hit a spinner.



Good luck! My 2 cents.

Spring or fall seems to be the best time for trout fishing. You need to fix up a proper angle, use of proper baits are also important. How to handle baits and lures in a proper scientific manner is also very important.
