Trout Fishing in Tailwaters

Thu, 07/09/2009 - 16:22 -- jmaslar

Trout fishing in the summer can be difficult in the Mountains of the Southeastern USA due to low water levels and the resultant stress on the trout populations.  Trout can be stressed and endangered by low water levels that do not provide cover from predators and warm water that does not provide the oxygen levels necessary to sustain the trout populations.  We have seen some bad drought conditions in the last two or three years.

Top 5 Tips to Catch Trout in Summer

1) FISH EARLY AND LATE: Trout feed more in the morning and the evening, especially the big brown trout.   Also, there is less interruption from vacationers.  I have caught trout in Deep Creek in the evening after folks were tubing all day.

3) CHOOSE AREAS CAREFULLY: Two VERY IMPORTANT SPOTS are inlets and outlets because the temperature is vastly different and they are the super highway of food.
