What's the best way to fish for trout in lakes using live minnows as bait and what is the best way to hook the minnow, in the mouth, tail...? I fish in N. California and some lakes allow live bait from its lakes.
Also, do artificial minnows wok well?
Thanks.
Welcome to the Forum, hookme. When it was legal to do it, I always put the hook through the eyes. But I fished streams and stripped it back.
