fishin for trout in lakes

Can't say for certain yet, as I need to do some more work up on the *poachin'* patch.
Might even get into a good 'ol gunfight with some real poachers. So the future is
really quite murky at present.

I'll e-mail ya 'round lunch tomorrow.

You would likely need to use at
least a sinkin'
tip line and a nymph pattern. You could catch some brim or bluegills
along the banks,
but you aren't likely to catch any trout in the shallows, unless you just
happen upon
some along the banks. Most likely, any lake trout are going to be in the
deeper
waters feedin' on nymphs or minnows--dependin' on their size of course.

Never fished there myself.

yesterday my son and i went fishin at a local lake in blowin rock ,
(appropriately called trout lake). he fished with his spin rod, i with
my
fly rod. he had an artificial worm on his hook, which landed him his
first
trout. i, in spite of trying a few different flies, got nothing. my
question is this. in the absence of a hatch, when fishing for trout in
lakes, does one approach fly selection differently than when fishing
streams?


you ever fish in there mark?

thank you for the HELPFUL response, op. there isn't any boating in there,
so i'm just fishin off the bank. got some pretty good distance out there
this evenin, but of course, nothin like you're saying would be sufficient to
catch trout. maybe my son got lucky yesterday. either way, i'm glad for
him.

hey, ya wanna try that spot again this week? if you do, maybe tomorrow? i
have a friend who is a singer songwriter and has a gig comin up at a coffee
house in w. jefferson on the 28, and she wants me to play it with her, so
if i say yes, i will be practicing with her a couple of nights this week,
but i know that we won't start practicing yet tomorrow.
whatchya think?
