Trout fishing in unknown territory
#4
All the above suggestions are good. May I add to it?

I will also tend to look for the "Eddys" or the back flowing currents. Logs and other structure that creates a disturbance and reduction in the flow are some of the key locations.

With the night crawler set up, I usually like to put a 1/4 oz split shot about 18 to 24 inches above the hook. It helps to give a more natural effect to the worm.

Don't forget to peel off some of your 40# test and replace it with a 2 or 4# leader. ha ha.

If you have a 6lb set up, that would be ideal with the smaller leader on the last 8 to 10 feet of it. Trout are line shy and they won't let you get away with bigger flourocarbon or "Vanish", "Transition" or other types of line.[cool]
