Live Bait Trout Tips via LA Sportsman
I thought these tips were good. It's pretty much how we fish live bait. Good stuff.

From big trout specialist Tommy Vidrine
He often advises people on his boat to keep their left hand in their pocket while fishing.
?Just hold it with your right hand,? he said. ?When they do that, the trout hooks himself. They?re not going to let that shrimp or croaker go.?
And with the circle hook, too often he sees excited anglers set it hard and end up losing fish.
?Just lift and reel. You don?t have to set the hook,? Vidrine said. ?When he?s pulling away from you, you?re just pulling the opposite way. Lift up on the tip and reel down ? it?s done.
?It?s hooked. You?ve got the right hook on. He?s not going to open his mouth and when the circle hook sets, you?ve got him.
