Trout Fishing Waders
If you plan on going trout fishing on a river, then you should have a decent pair of waders. You do not necessarily need waders in order to catch some trout, but you can catch more if you are in the river. With waders, you can fish more holes and fish from different angles. This will produce more fish because the presentation of the trout fishing lure will be different. There are two main kinds of trout fishing waders. Hodgeman and Bone Dry are great brands that will last a long time.
Float Tube
Whenever I go trout fishing, I always take a float tube with me. Now this is only for big rivers that have a faster current. With a float tube, I can walk around with ease and can simply float to my hot spots rather than walk. The cool part about float tubes is that they will catch you have to fall. Many times algae will build up on the rocks and the river will be very slick. I have fallen numerous times, but when I take a float tube with me, it is always there to catch me. Basic trout fishing float tubes tend to cost around seventy dollars.
Ultra light Fishing Rod
If you plan on fishing for trout and do not want to fly fish, then the best way to go is with an ultra light trout fishing rod. These rod and reel combos are made to hold four to six pound line which is great for trout fishing. Have such light weight tackle will give you more control and feel when you fish. Control is important because it will give the lures that you cast more lifelike action and will appeal more to torut.
Lures for Trout fishing
Some of the best trout fishing lures are spoons and spinners. A spinner is any type of trout lure that has a small spoon attached and shines in the water. Panther martins, rooster tails, mepps, little cleos, small rapalas, pen's minnows, and crawfish are all really good lures for trout.

Great article. I've had a lot of success with Rooster Tails over the years. I've always wanted to get some type of float tube, as I think they would be perfect on some of the bigger rivers we have around here. Any suggestions?
