"BASSING" FOR TROUT
Outdoor Editor, -
Mercury Outboards


Trout fishermen can borrow
chapter from bass angling
techniques if they're looking fol
large fish on opening day.
In fact, the Mercury OutbOard
fishing experts say it might
be wise to go all the way -
borrow bass tackle and lures
as we'll.
Cold water temperatures
found in early spring call fol-
a change in the fishing tactics
usually associated with trout
Until the water reaches the so
degree level, little insect acti-
vity will occur.
Trout, too, are inactive in
the cold, and even the choicest
of foods fail to move them far
If the water is high and murky
the problem is compounded.
In such situations casting OF
spinning gear rigged with deer
running bass plugs can save the
day. Any style that resembles
a minnow and will burrow right
down on bottom is acceptable
Fish this outfit downstream
standing directly above h o s
where trout will be lying. Let
the lure sink to the bottom and
drift into the hole. Retrieve ar
inch at a time if the current is
strong enough to work the lure
If the water is still, occasion.
ally twitch the offering.
Just like the midsummer
bass fishing, say the Mercury
people - fish 'er deep and slow
The secret of this style OF
fishing is to get the plug right
in front of the fish's nose. II
takes plenty of patience and a
few snagged lures. But these
warm water techniques are qua.
ranteed to lift the chill from q
brisk spring day.
