Is River Trout Fishing Right For You?

River trout fishing has a long running history in the USA. The tips, tricks and techniques that you see all the experts using, are handed down through family generations. With new pole technology and improved lures, trout fishing has grown in popularity. Although new technology has given the fisherman the upper hand, the "tried and true" methods are still the best.

If you are looking for trout, one of the best places to fish for them is on a river. What I mean by river is a slow-moving body of water. The temperature of the water should be cool. Stay away from fast-moving water or water that is extremely cold. It is much harder to catch a trout in those types of conditions.

Rivers that are too deep are also not great environments to catch trout. Most trout tend to like the more shallow waters. There is an exception to this rule. If you are up for a challenge, the more mature, larger trout tend to like the deeper waters. Yet they are less likely to take your bait or hook. It is the younger trout that are more eager to eat.

When you are fishing the slow-moving waters, use a fly cast that keeps your bait or lure above the waterline. Sinking your bait or lure is not recommended unless it is early in the season. Keeping your line above the waterline is what attracts most trout.

Trout have good eyesight. If you cast your line above the water line and complete the technique just right, the trout will see it moving. Once you landed it on the surface, it is only a matter of a few seconds before you feel that tug on your line. You got em' hooked. On a good day, some trout fishermen can pull in a very large catch.

If you feel that river fishing is for you, then the first step to becoming good at it is learning the basics. The basics are not hard to learn. With a bit of practice you will be on to more advanced techniques and topics.
