Welcome aboard Smokey! What type of fishing are you interested in? And where abouts do you think you’ll be fishing? Streams or lakes or both?

Trout:
if not in a fly only area, use Mepps spinners, panther Martin spinners, rooster tail spinners all are good in size #’s 1,2,3 for small to 20 inch fish. (They also work for other species). Also can use wax worms, meal worms, minnows. Salmon eggs on salmon egg hooks. Berkeley power bait. Use light or ultra light tackle.
Bass:
Live minnows or shiners hooked through both lips fished below a bobber to control depth and keep them out of the mud. Also they can’t swim away or elude the bass as easy. Spinner baits, plastic worms, swim shads, jitterbug, Zara spook, crank baits, jerk baits. Light to med tackle.
Musky:
Larger lures. Swim shads, Rapalas , spinner baits, spoons. Medium to medium heavy tackle.
