Tip

Here are some items that are guaranteed to make the trip more comfortable and eliminate some potential problems.

1.  Toilet paper in an air tight zip loc bag.  This provides REAL comfort, but can easily be forgotten!

2. Car keys and if possible, give a spare key to your fishing companion.

3. Several watertight lunch bags to save your, remote entry car keys, cell phone, wallet, snacks, etc. As if, anyone would fall in!

Here are some important tips and resources that may save your life.

1. Snakes can be very dangerous especially in the western and the southern regions of the USA. 

2. Dehydration can be dangerous if you are not aware of the symptoms.  Check here to learn the symptoms as it can overcome you without warning.

1. Use the strongest tippet possible to avoid loosing the trout with the hook still embeded.

2. Use barbless hooks, or if not available crush the hook flat with needle nose pliers.   This is to facilitate ease of hook removal.

3. Use a landing net especially the knot-less type if available.  This avoids damage to the trout and also, will cause the trout to be less fatigued in the process.

4. Always wet the hands prior to touching the trout to avoid removing the protective coating of "slime" that covers the trout.

1. To test the sharpness of your hook, gently place the point of the hook against your thumb’s fingernail.  Then, gently scrape it down the length of your fingernail.  Do not put additional pressure beyond what is required to keep the point in contact with your fingernail.  If the point leaves a mark, it is sharp enough.  Otherwise, replace or sharpen it.

Research

The years of experience of Troutprostore’s staff have led to a number of useful innovations that are in our Research Department right now and with more to come.   Over the years we have been frustrated with, and not satisfied with, some currently available equipment.  So we have engineered and developed our own equipment right in our Research Department.  We will gladly share this equipment with our visitors via the Store or if you do not see it there, please contact us via the "Contacts" tab.
