Fishing for trout can be a fun adventure. Making your fishing trip more of success first starts with obtaining your fishing license and the proper fishing equipment. You will also need to find a river with either natural born trout or a river that has been stocked with trout.
      Trout are found in water that is a temperature of about 50 - 60 degrees and in clear rather fast moving streams, although some trout are found in lakes. Small or young trout are referred to as troutling or troutlet. The color of the trout varies with their locations as they pick up different patterns and colors which act as a sort of camouflage. The trout fins are different from other fish as they have no spines and near the tail they also have a small fatty fin. Trout are a boney fish but the flesh is considered to be of good flavor.
      The three most common trout species that we hear about today are rainbow, brown and brook. To improve your chances of a successful fishing trip you need to check out how the stream or river flow effects where the trout can be located. The water currents in a stream create pools, riffles and places where the water runs fast. The fast moving water is a place where trout can feed or even spawn. Deeper areas of the runs can have trout in them most anytime of the day. Deep slow moving pools become a resting place for the smaller trout with an occasional large trout as well.
