How would you guys fish this for trout?

  1. Panther Martin or kastmaster in the slower moving parts right after the fast moving parts. That’s where their food collects so that’s probably where they’re at. I also sometimes float a little tiny crank bait downstream and then retrieve it

  2. In Denmark/Northern-Germany, we would build something like a Dropshot-Rigg with a swimmer on top. Then some worms (top) or gummifish (mediocre), if there is Salmon or Trout, they will inhale this so fast!

  3. Rooster tails, maggots or butter/wax worms under a bobber myself. Maybe some chartreuse powerbait

  4. Drop a nymph behind the rocks, in the troughs using a tight line. Then run a streamer through the tail of the pool.

    If attracters don’t work, I’d look for signs of a hatch and try and match it with nymphs and then dries. Then use a mop fly or San Juan worm if all else failed.

  5. It’s hard to explain I’ll have to show you in person. Just let me know where that river is and I’ll meet you there

  6. Depending on the depth I would either start by float fishing or drift fishing through the main runs. Bait depends on time of year and temperature. Either salmon eggs, worms, grubs, or shrimp. If I didn’t have any luck with that then I would switch to an inline spinner or spoon, probably an inline spinner for this spot, and work the entire run.

  7. Cast up river at an angle with a small spinner or trout egg lure. Retrieve at differing speeds to cover the entire section of river. No bites? Move. Cast into eddies too.
