Hi All,

I'm picking up fishing again and would like some advice on the basic
tackle I need for fishing rainbow trout in California lakes.

I'm thinking 5 foot light rod with spinner reel and 4lb test mono
three way swivels- 2oz sinker on one and a lure on the other (the lure
is what I need help with, there are just so many!)

Probably #10 or #14 hooks?

Thanks!
Paul


Go to a local tackle shop. Get them to show you how to set up with Power
Bait. Take a drive up to New Melones with the family, take swimming suits,
and go into Glory Hole Sports and they will show you how to rig up.
