7 Secrets to River Trout Fishing
One of the most exciting forms of fishing is river trout fishing. Rivers provide many different options for anglers of all skill levels. River fishing allows for various bait and lure combinations, in addition to a wide range of techniques such as fly fishing and spin fishing. This article is designed to highlight seven important guidelines to keep in mind when trout fishing in rivers, and hopefully this knowledge will come in handy the next time you are on the river.
1. Rules and Regulations
It is very important to understand the local rules and regulations of the river where you are fishing. Many places require fishing licenses, and in order to obtain those licenses you must fully understand the laws. Many rivers have bait and lure restrictions since certain bait combinations can be harmful to the trout, so you should be fine as long as you are aware of these restrictions ahead of time.
2. Artificial Lures
Using artificial lures is a great option for river trout fishing. Many anglers will use light weight lures for river fishing, but this all depends on the strength of the current. Stronger currents typically require heavier lures. This is something that you will probably be prepared for anyway since it's always a good idea to carry a wide variety of tackle options.
3. Live Bait
Live bait is an excellent choice for catching trout in rivers as well. Worms, grasshoppers and other insects can be highly effective for trout fishing since they are natural prey for the fish. However, many local laws prohibit the use of live bait for the risk of deep hooking, which can be very harmful to the fish. Trout tend to be more aggressive with live bait, and this is why it poses a risk. As mentioned in the first guideline, if you are aware of the rules and regulations local to your area then you will know whether or not you should be using live bait.
4. Examine the River
Don't be afraid to walk up and down the river before beginning to fish. There is a lot that can be accomplished from examining current behavior and looking for spots in the river where the current changes. You may also want to study the depth of the water in various places and how those depths relate to the strength of the current. Keep in mind that trout love areas of the river where the amount of dissolved oxygen is the highest. In warmer water, this is usually where the water is moving pretty fast. If you are trout fishing in cold water then you can probably fish in slower moving water like deep pools. Your goal is to find the best place on the river to snag as many trout as possible, but that area might not be where you first start.
5. Be Light on Your Feet
As you have probably heard, trout have a very strong sense of sight and smell. However, what most people do not know about trout is their amazing ability to feel and sense pressure waves. They can literally feel your vibrations depending on where you are, so it is very important to be mindful of this. This especially holds true if you are wading through the river; make sure to wade slowly and be as light on your feet as possible. Also, don't forget that trout can sense these vibrations on the river bank as well. A great rule of thumb is to just walk slowly without much force wherever you are while fishing to avoid scaring the trout away.
6. Up-River Casting
In order to successfully and consistently catch trout in a river, you are going to want to cast your line upstream and at an angle. This holds true when fishing from the river bank or if you are positioned in the water. By casting upstream, your bait or lure can naturally float down with the river current and allows the trout to have time to see it. If you allow the end of your line to drift all the way down as far as you can then you will increase your chances of getting a bite.
7. Catch and Release
One of the most important parts of your trout fishing adventure is what to do once you have successfully caught one. This is also related to knowing the local laws and what the regulations are for keeping the fish you catch. Most anglers will use the catch and release method for smaller trout or wild trout.
