The trout seem to relate to the edges of drop-offs into deep water that top out at 5-10 feet of rock bottom. Can catch the all day long, but early and late seems to be the best. I use baitcast rods 7 to 7.5 foot rods with medium heavy action with Abu Garcia 5500 or 6500 baitcast reels taking line in the 15-25 pound class.
