I'm an expert? Not really, but I did stay at a Holiday Express last night!

What George says rings true. Keep in mind these are not really wild trout that are a fly fishermens' dream fish. They mostly likely have been feeding on pellets in a concrete raceway before they got to you. They're as domesticated as a farm cow when it really comes down to it. They typically are easy to catch and will hit anything they can get in their mouths if they are hungry. Match the hatch! Put a floating pantyhose pellet on a flyrod!

However if you want to give them feed they can digest easily, give them higher protein then catfish chow. Trout have a hard time with too many carbohydrates.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
