Been fishing the local rainbow trout pond, and am having less than impressive results. I was way off base the first time using spinners and sinking jigs, I noticed as time went on that they were all surface feeding, the bugs were killing me and I called it a night. Went back tonight used a green floating jig with orange trout powerbait, my biggest problem was the floating jig is so light that I can't cast it out more than 10-12 feet, I am in the water a way with my chest waiters on, but I cannot get it out to where I can see fish surfacing, so solution is to pull a pile of line off my reel let it rest in the water and then cast out the jig sans resistance, but 1 out of 3 casts ends up with tangled line and the whole process is time consuming. There has to be a better way, please tell me what to do and what to use with my spinning reel, it kills me to see them surfacing all over and all I am getting is bites from the mosquito's, lol. I am pretty sure I did get a bite tonight though. Anyhow, any type of help would be great.
