Well ibwant thinking trout was really thinking crappie but justcwanted some Input so thank you guys
Yep. The best thing you can do for yourself is time it so you have traps IN by the open of trout hours - 1/2 hour prior to sunrise. I don't think there's any point in trying earlier. With cusk, I have the night bite to get really hot right at the CLOSE of trout hours an hour after sunset, but that seems to slow down as well later in the evening. By one o'clock a.m. at latest I would be throwing in the towel. I think the 'hot bite' is pretty much over by 11 p.m.
don't step in an open ice hole either man.
