  Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.

• For Westlope cutthroat trout

  Westlope cutthroat trout are often found in clear, cold streams; fish upstream, presenting your bait or lure naturally and avoiding spooking the fish by keeping a low profile.
