Every year the town I live in stocks the lake in our town with rainbow trout. They put some big trout in and not many of them are caught. The deepest parts of the lake are around 40 feet deep(where the trout seem to stay). I was wondering if anyone has ever fished for trout in a lake before because I usually fish the streams. I would appreciate any advice on catching them in this type of water. The people that do catch them usually anchor in the deeper parts of the lake, but I do not know what they are using for bait. Helpful advice is welcome.
