The Brown Trout, A close relative of the Atlantic salmon, is a popular game fish in both Europe and North America. It was one of the immigrants that arrived to North America in the 1880's. The baits I prefer to use are spinner baits or mosquito flies. I would show you some pictures of some I caught earlier in the year, but those are all ready developed and deleted to save up space on the camera, so here are some pictures of some off the internet:http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/95/Browntrout029.jpg
