Hello everyone, I know this is a bass forums but it's still fishing right?? I've only been lightly fishing for over a year and already, my tackle box has gained a lot of assessories including a new fishing rod, it's highly addicitive and relaxing.-- I was previously using a cheap diawa rod combo (25$ maybe) that was stolen so I decided to buy a new one. I grabbed a BPS pro qualifer(bait caster) with the carbon light rod.
At the moment I have braided 20LB(8lb test dia) Fireline spooled up but here's the dilemma. While I can fish for any fresh water fish in my area with my current setup, the braided is a poor choice for catching trout. With my braided line attached as my main line, would throwing 2-4lb mono/fluro leader line be any hindrance to my trout game as long as I can get my fishing rig up to weight for casting (using bait caster)???
And... what are some of your favorite fishing rigs for trout fishing? I would love to hear what more experienced fishermans found useful.
