Re: Advise on gear for the river
My gear varies a little depending on the type of stream I fish. For anything on the small side and with significant over growth I will pack 5''6" rod which makes it easy to maneuver around. For any of the bigger rivers I like a 6' -6'6" rod. I only target trout and I stick with 4lb flouro(Vanish). As for lures I mean there are just so many and most work to some degree, it just depends on what you like. A very easy go to is the inline spinner, and I am partial to Panther Martins. I would get a pair of hip boots at the very least and if you are really willing to spend some $$ then pick up a pair of breathable waders along with hole sealant. Lastly a vest and trout friendly net. When stream fishing you will be on the move so a tackle box is just a pain. Hope this helps.
