Ya'll will prolly call me a stupid Texan tourist but I've been fishin in trout streams a time or 20 way back up in the hills where the trout are mighty hungry.

We go way up outta the folks' way and get to where casting with a flyrod is impossible.

We use 4 ft. spinnin rods and reels with very light tackle. We've tried lots of baits and have settled on the 1 bait that consistently gets us fish.

A 1/16 oz. silver bladed roostertail with a white skirt...

Caught bookoos of trout with this bait all over BFE...

Flame away...grin...
