How to Set Up a Trout Rig

With DNR Trout stocking in full swing, Sammy explained how to set up a simple rig to use for bait fishing! Power Bait trout dough on this rig is a great way to catch those stocked trout!

Probably the best video ive found on explaining and technique... i never really had anyone to teach me or take me fishing growing up.. so im learning a lot later in my adult life thanks to videos like this

[ehd]

[NikitaGavrylovskyy-fz]

[calditos]

After watching a lots of videos with no clear explanation, I’m glad I found yours, to the point and simple explained. Thanks

[Luckylozer]

I use a barrel swivel a red bead & the sliding sinker. I then tie my own leader so I can make it as long or short as I want.

Simple quick and straight to the point. Thank you a bunch !

Gracias por el video corto y bien explicado. No tenía muchas ideas así que intenté algo por mi cuenta y quedó parecido al del video. Pero mejor pruebo con el que enseñas allí a ver qué tal. Bendiciones

Extremely helpful and straight to the point! Thanks bro 😎

Do you suggest adding a bead between the weight and swivel or is the set up just fine without a bead ? Going to try trout fishing for the first time ever soon !

Thanks brother for the info. I’m in Arkansas this week doing my first trout fishing.

Is it okay if my leader is flourocarbon?

I know that sinks more than mono. Just wondering if that would make a difference since I want my bait to float off surface.

I assume a power bait or salmon eggs still wood but what if I'm using something like worm or liver?

[glennsmith]

Put a rubber bumper or a bead on the main line to stop the weight from slamming into bezel. Saves the embarrassment of snapping the line after several casts or when using a heavier egg sinker.

[professorpatrickfontes]

What lb weight is that line your using for the rig? thank you

[lou_mat]

Can you use a bobber im new to fishing

[Skunkdman]

Aren't treble hooks illegal in MD unless they are part of an artificial lure; or did the rule change this year?

[kylecorrow]

Can you use this same setup just add a slip bobber to it?

I use a small split shot in stead of a swivel it works for me
