I haven't spent much time fishing worms for trout. I maily used crawlers when I was younger for sunfish and bass under your standard bobber. When I trout fish I usually use small spoons or Rapalas, but sometimes when I can't get a bite to save my life, I think of whether or not live bait would put some fish on the hook.
Anyone have luck using worms for trout fishing and/or have a good rig to fish them. I heard just use a small split shot over a small hook, but I have had fish drop the bait in the past and I think its due to them feeling the weight. I was thinking about using something like a Powerbait rig just with a chunk of worm, or even using a worm under a slip float.
Thanks.
