sounds like wabowhunter is already over on the dark side!!

Chronies under indicators are a very effective way to catch trout. Usually the depth to fish is about a foot off the bottom as the fish are cruising around taking the pupa as they emerge from their tubes.

A fish finder is very useful for establishing the depth the fish are cruising and eating. Like I said above "usually it's about a foot off the bottom".. but that's not always the case.

I use a fishing buddy on my pram when I'm doing chronies under indicators.

And for those who have been concermed with me going over to the "dark dark side" of salmon and gear, I will be returning to the regular "dark side" of chronies and indicators this spring.
