[quote SkunkedAgain]You catch more fish with your line in the water.... Also, you got to fish where the fish are.... location, depth etc... welcome to the forum, most of the forum members will be glad to help, but your request is a little over the top... Try something like what's working at Deer Creek and see what that does for you... I fish further north mostly so I won't be a lot of help down there, but I like trolling my trout.... Been using a kokanee rig and doing rather well, but not necessarily for big ones... Good luck... J[/quote]
Thank you sir for answering me. I've gotten quite good at slamming your run-of-the-mill trout in a variety of ways and during all seasons. My goal is to shoot for the hole-in-one, the lightning strike, the rare 3 pound and above trout. The waters I fish nearly exclusively are Deer Creek. I think it is absolutely one of the most underrated waters around and it seems to march to the beat of its own drummer.
I'll rephrase my question as per your advice.
I'd like to start catching big 'uns. I don't care if I catch one every five outings, I want to hunt for the big trout. I am on Deer Creek most of the time.
Does anyone have any old school solutions? I think I am going to forego Powerbait and start using nightcrawlers, marshmallows, and minnows.
I appreciate the reply so much! Happy fishing!
