Fishing Bait
How To Choose The Right Trout Fishing Bait
Since the bait is the thing that is going to attract and eventually snag a trout fish, you want to be sure that you are using the right kind.
There is a huge array of different types of bait but, what is it that trout fish like best? Trout fishermen have the option of using live bait, synthetic bait, or even some things that their grandfathers used to use.
Many different options are available to trout fishermen who are looking to use live bait. Nightcrawlers are a fail safe when it comes to fishing for trout.
They work on several levels including the fact that they are easy to get and they are the right weight for the long cast. Although using live worms can sometimes be too small or hard to cast, many trout fishermen like to use them. Hellgrammites and water worms also known as insect larva also work well for trout fishing. But, they can be harder to find as the summer goes on.
Also, they can be a little hard to work with if you are casting distance. Small minnows make good bait for trout fish especially early in the season when the fish are a little sluggish.
Some more experienced trout fishermen like to use a chunk of chub or sucker meat when they are planning on trying to catch a large trout. Another type of live bait that works well if you are out to catch a trophy trout is crayfish. Live crayfish rigged on a set of size 8 gang hooks is a hard bait to beat when it comes to choosing the very best trout fish bait.
Trout fishermen can also explore the world of using synthetic bait. Synthetic bait is man made and comes in a large array of colors, patterns and styles. For some unexplained reason, hatchery trout are extremely attracted to synthetic bait.
It is the choice to use if you are going to be still fishing in a lake that is stocked with trout. In many cases, they will do better then live bait. When it comes to synthetic bait, experimentation is the key. You may have to try a couple of different colors, etc. in order to have some success with the trout.
In the past when fishing typically consisted of going out and digging to find worms, there were a couple of traditional baits that seemed to work every time. A couple of these "old fashioned" baits were corn and cheese.
Cheese in particular works very well with hatchery trout as well. You can rig a piece of cheese on a set of pre tied gang hooks and use it as bait when fishing in still fishing.
Depending on what kind of bait you are successful with it is not uncommon for trout fishermen to go through several different types of bait during one fishing excursion. You might be successful with one thing one day and another type of bait another day. They bottom line is that sometimes it is very hard to predict what trout fish are going to be attracted to.

How good is Bread as fishing bait? Wont it fall off the hook?
How good is Bread as fishing bait? Wont it fall off the hook?
Hi Racer, If you pull off a piece of bread about the size of your thumb nail and fold this around the hook and squeeze only around the hook,this leaves a flaky portion for the fish to go for and will attract them and it will also stay on your hook for some time. If float fishing this way I would check the bait often to make sure it is still on. If floating crust for Carp then use the crust by hooking the crust through the hook a couple of times and use a un - cut loaf with a piece of crust 30mm across as to disguise the hook as floating crust for carp on the surface is great fun as you can watch the carp come for the crust and take off. Great thrill.
