bait can not be used on trout[angelic]
On this forum board, that is my story and I am sticking to it. [cool]
However, Using a swivel tied at the end of a spin cast rig with monofiliament. can work. Use a free sliding bubble between the pole and swivel. To the swivel add 2 to 3.5 feet of tippet material. Tie a fly on to end of the tippet. Dry flies, wet flies, nymphs, spider flies, flymphs or soft hackles will all work.
Heres a few basic flies that will work
Drys:
parachute adams, Elk Hare Caddis, Royal Wulffs, griffiths Knats, chernobyl ant, lady heather, charlie boy hopper, Renegade.
These you will want to cast them out there and then let them set for a couple of minutes then give them a little twitch.
Wets / nymphs:
chronimids, wooly bugger, wooly worm, wet renegade, pheasant tails, royal coachman, water boatman, gold rib hairs ears, pheasant tail soft hackle. Most of these you will wan to retrieve quite slowly.
Using weight on the tippet or weighted flies you can get these to sinkle lower in the water collumn.
Putting water in the bubble will aid in being able to cast the line further out.
Don't forget to bend the barbs down.
