Auger,

I'm from Mass and I'm out 3 times a week....2 days i fish for bass/pike and the third day i set up for salmon and trout......i have had tremendous luck with size 2 eagle-claw hooks and small minnows in about 15 feet of water---if you have a depth map of the lake you are fishing, drill holes til u find teh drop and you'll find teh fishing to be intense...set the minnow about 3 feet off the bottom on 4 of your tilts and then have a suspended minnow on your fifth tilt about 7 feet down....if the trout aren't hitting, i guarantee you will run into a school of perch at some point in teh day!
