Default Second Trout Outing

Returned to the same stretch of the river I fished a few days ago when I busted my NJ trout cherry. My son was already there and had caught/released 3 rainbows fishing the same two pools and a riffle we fished last night. Although I did catch 2 rainbows, I still have a ways to go to get the knack of it as evident by the 12 bites I missed.

Perhaps it’s because I’m using too small a hook-#10 baitholder ? When I lived in Georgia and did more trout fishing (since I was far from the salt) I’m 99% sure I was using a size 6.

I’m also going to start mixing in an in-line spinner. While i was there my son caught two using one.
