from: Scott FitzgeraldTrout fishing is a fantastic and interesting hobby and sport for many people. To be a good trout fisherman requires great knowledge and patience. The more you know, the more successful you will be in your efforts. There are many different types of trout and when it comes to trout fishing, the more you know about the species you are fishing, the higher an advantage you will have. Brook trout, also known as the speckled trout are one popular type of trout that can be found in many parts of the world. They are often sought after my game fishers.
The brook trout is actually a native of North Carolina and surrounding states but they are found in other parts of the country as well. They live mainly in the cold waters that are found high in the mountains so they are sometimes found up north as well. The brook trout can be easily recognized by its bright color and its lower fins that are black and white. Today it is very rare to catch a brook trout over twelve inches in length because most of them average about eight inches or under.

1. You can typically catch bigger fish later at night.

3. Big trout can often be found underneath docks and bridges or docked boats and fallen trees.
4. Try to spot them before they see you or you will scare them off.
5. It's easier to catch speckled trout while wading since a boat will scare them off.
6. For catching bigger trout, you need bigger bait.

If you are fishing in a regulated zone, you must be sure you are familiar with the regulations and that you are following them properly.
