Or fight the elusive trout with fly rod instead to maximize your contact with the fish. A 9” rod, class seven or eight, with a reel that holds a lot of backing. Other gear you will need is Neoprene type waders or breathing ones (Gore-Tex) with something warm underneath, plus wader jacket or rain jacket on top.  If you lack any of this stuff you can of course rent it from us.
