Trout Inline Spinner Kits: https://amzn.to/2L7zF0X & https://amzn.to/2A8kQJn & https://amzn.to/3dquxkO
If you are new to using inline spinners I’d recommend getting a kit with a variety of them. Panther Martin has a great variety pack!
Trout Rod: https://amzn.to/3dnUz8c
I use the 5 foot berkley cherrywood ultra light rod. The sensitivity on the rod is amazing, which makes it great to feel the trout. I also use this rod for catching panfish. The light action makes the fight fun!
Trout Reel: https://amzn.to/35HdkAE
The 1000FE is a great choice. It is not too big, but still holds a good amount of line. I have used my shimano reel for 10 years and have not had any problems with it. It still is smooth as butter!
Trout Combo: https://amzn.to/2xI1dXL
Here is an option for you combo lovers out there, pick the light 5’6″! I use a pflueger trion reel for trout, crappier, and bass fishing and it works great. The rod appears to have great sensitivity, but still have enough backbone to set the hook.

Trout Strike Indicators: https://amzn.to/2YIELJd &https://amzn.to/3c8k6C5
When float fishing for trout you need to get some strike indicators in order to be as effective as possible! These lightweight floats will ensure you see even the smallest of bites!
Flourocarbon Fishing Line: https://amzn.to/2WDsG55
When trout fishing you need to have flourocarbon line – as it’s almost invisible to the trout’s eyes (they have very good visibility and if they notice fishing line they may be hesitant to bite). I usually run a 4lb flouro leader!
Marabou Jig: https://amzn.to/2L6usX5
Get your variety pack of Marabou jigs today, so you can hook up on your PB! The thing I love about these lures is that they are cheap for how effective they are!
Split Shots: https://amzn.to/3dqp25v
You guessed it, another variety pack. It is really important to have a range of split shots you can put on your line. This allows you to test and see which weight works best for each of your reels, jig, and line type. Not to mention the ability to target different depths of water.
Trout Magnet: https://amzn.to/2xHoMjk & https://amzn.to/3frtyCB
Trout magnets are one of the most popular lures to use under a float for trout….and rightfully so; they get the job done! I’d recommend getting a couple different colors to match the conditions you are fishing!
