Sea Trout and Atlantic Salmon in an estuary

Hi everyone,

Know an estuary thats renowned for Sea Trout and Salmon
Wondering what lures to fish them with got a few Black and Gold 3inch Rapalas are they any good?

What tackle to use as well got a 5ft a 7ft and a 10ft Spinning rod with Different sized reels
What breaking strain line should i have as well got 10lb

Also should i use a Wire trace??

TIGHT LINES

Try a small kilty for trout ,no wire trace,or bait fish with sprats or small sandeel make up light line traces

Thanks for the comment
Will try that

tobys are supposed to be good I would imagine anything that looks like a sandeel.

I would also try sandeel. a place we go fishing for bass has white trout and one lad i know caught them using mackeral twice.

bubble float and flies can be great for sea trout - patterns like claret bumble or bibio that make a 'wake' on the surface can be deadly. in a current cast straight across and let it swing round in an arc - in slack water cast and reel in varing the speed - sea trout seem to like a moving target

mack belly strip cut sandeel size also works well as does sandeel, with the smaller ones working best for sea trout ( though i have had the greedy feckers on a full fillet of mack!)

one thing i would love to try is live sandeel - fished with a bubble float and light spinning rod - i think it would be deadly.

Thanks for the replies everyone
