Waders and Wading Boots For Winter

OK, it is important to stay as warm as possible while fishing in the winter.  Waders are an essential part of that.  I’ve found you can still get away with wearing breathable waders vs. neoprene if you where fleece pants underneathe.  The very most important part of your attire in the winter is your wading boots.  Make sure you go one, or two sizes larger than you do in the summer for your boots.  This allows good circulation, and also makes it easy to get your boots on and off when they are cold, or frozen.  You might also consider a boot-foot wader.  With a boot-foot wader you don’t have to mess with bending over and fighting frozen laces etc., just make sure you go a size big. Follow this advice and you will have a more pleasant experience fishing in the winter.

Stripping Streamers for trout in the Winter

Winter time can be a very productive time to catch trout on streamers if you know where the fish are hanging out.  Typically in the winter as water temps are very cold trout slow down, they don’t feed as much, but they have to feed.  Trout also conserve more energy in the winter, therefore they are hanging out in the deeper slower runs in the river where there is a good food source.  If you are familiar where rivers ice up and the bottom starts to ice as well these are typically not good areas to fish for trout in the winter because if the bottom ices up the food source that usually lives there is not going to thrive .  So if you find a run with some depth where the bottom never ices,  and has an inside or a “soft elbow” this would be a good place to run a streamer.  Now keep in mind trout are not going to chase as fast or as far for your bug, however they are probably going to eat it if it hits them in the nose, so run your streamer deep and slow.  Make sure you are hitting the bottom. Use SLOW , but steady strips so you can still feel the take.  Keep these things in mind while fishing streamers in the winter and you will have more hook ups on good fish!
