Wile Coyote approved. What could possibly go wrong?
:D


Good luck I haven't Trout fish in long time mostly rather go to CO than here in Kansas and pay another 14.50 just to fish for fish when why wouldn't a damn fishing license be good enough? I know it would cost more out of state but IDC.

Although trout fishing does sound fun I may cave in.

Went lake trout fishing today. I caught my first trout and only one. Weighed in at 1.27lbs. We catch and release everything so she got to live.

What kind, brook, rainbow?

I've never went trout fishing, its something I'd really like to try... are they good fighters?

Um...Yeah. my grandpa says Brown are stocked but I sure didn't see any brown on that trout. I'll upload a pic when my dad sends texts me it.

Used a spinning rod/reel with four pound mono. It felt like a much bigger fish so it did fight some. Didn't notice any difference from other lake fish.

That's a hog!

The colors all depend on the sex, time of year, environment, and diet. Where were you at? I'm probably going to rule out the possibility of a brookie.

A brown can be kind of a light yellow color with darker spots. Browns can range from this:

A rainbow can look like this:

You would love it and go for it!

I grew up going to Co every year for summer camp in BSA as my dad was the Scout Master but we would stay an extra week a lot up in them mountains and trout fish and loved it.

Now I think fly fishing is an art form and I didn't get the hang of it very well but man it is exhilarating to get one to catch a fly. Power bait eggs are awesome though if fly fishing isn't something use too I think it just takes practice.

I remember going to my Aunt and Uncles in Durango Co and their house was 50 yards from the river that went through town and man oh man that was great memories for me. Just went down a path with rod and bait and was some great fishing time. So I miss going trout fishing but I'm not into it here in Kansas I want to go to Co if I'm going trout fish maybe I just don't think it's fair to have to pay extra for a trout stamp when I already pay for a fishing license.

Do you fly fish loochy?

that's really the only way I fish nowdays

The trout stamp costs extra because the trout are more difficult to raise. Also, they generally die off in the summer (in this part of the country, special spring fed rivers or tailwaters below large dams are the exception), requiring them to be continually restocked each winter.

That's cool.

I wish I got the hang of it growing up but it didn't last. I'm not sure where to go good trout fishing anyways in Kansas I'd rather be in Co to trout fish in the mountains. Back in Kansas I'm happy with cat, bass and anything that I catch but I hate mother ****ing turtle ass wipes.

I taught myself as a teenager from reading books and just going out and doing it. Don't forget that you can fly fish for anything, not just trout.

From KS youd probably head west to Colorado or southeast to south Missouri or north Arkansas. Maybe northeast OK on Lower Illinois River, but that's not really the best place.

Hmmm I'm wanting to try different techniques this year and use crickets or things I don't normally do so that kind helps give me ideas. I didn't think about it that way.

Fly fishing may not work WELL for, say, catfish...since they are primarily scent feeders and tend to live on the bottom. I have caught a couple of cats by accident though.

Lately, fly fishing for carp has become a big thing.
