Thread: trout fishing

Never done the trout fishing. I don't even know where to go or what baits to use! Any help Pat?

Trout pond in the park at Sville, little hook with a couple split shot above it and whole kernel corn. Cheapest fishing you can do as for 50 cents you get a thousand baits.

Cory, like hookitbait said shelbyville park or sullivan park are the closest to me but you can go to idnr site and find out where all the places are. I know taylorville park and charleston has places to go. Corn is a very good bait to use but most ppl use berkley's power bait for trout, chartuese or orange is the best colors but found a new one this year i'm going to try. They also like minners, marshmellows too. I'm going to try some of hookitbait tubes under a bobber just to see what happens.
