so is this shimano rod/reel combo good for trout fishing?

This had better be super for that price! yes it is ,actually.The light action is the key feature of this combo,allowing you to feel the slightest pickup of the bait,and also allows a slow easy tip action to cast very small and lightweight lures that trout find so appealing.You could shop around and find a comparable setup with close to the same,if not the identical specifications as this one.The reel is known as ulltralight,and I would use the lowest weight line rating,to gain distance on the casts@2lb.Just be careful where you use it,if there are big fish there they will snap the line more easily,but you have a trade off here,you want to be able to cast to distant fish,but once you hook them you don't want to lose them to the very weak and thin line that got them to break...there is usually a weight limit of the lure it will comfortably work with,ok( I would use it on small streams)like 1/4 oz. or some other rating.This isn't something that you would take to a large river or lake,because the fish would snap off too easily.I have several of this type and they are alot of fun to use.I didn't pay that much for mine though,I bought them at clearence sales and saved a bundle.See if you can find a less expensive version with the same attributes,and stock up on the specialized lures and baits you will need for this combo to work well for you.

Fishing in Texas

In the state of Texas, 2 licenses are needed. The first is called the Conservation license. This is a prerequisite a person must have before being allowed to obtain a fishing license.

The Conservation license can be obtained from the Fish, Wildlife & Parks or FWP. This is done by giving one's social security number and other information that is requested. A valid driver's license or any valid ID with photo must also be presented for security purposes for the license to be processed.

Once that is done, a fishing license can be acquired which is neither non-transferable nor non-refundable and is only valid for one year.

Fish that are normally caught in Texas are flounder, trout and sheepshead.

Here are some tips that will help anyone who wants to go fishing in Texas;

1. The first thing to do is get the right equipment: a good boat, fishing rod, reels and bait.

2. If one is not familiar with the place, it is best to ask the locals where the best fishing ground is then start from there.

3. Hooks can be in different sizes. The right hook for fishing is dependent on the kind of bait that will be used.

4. To prevent injury especially when taking out the fish caught in the hook, it is advisable to do it using wet hands.

5. The primary source of food for Seagulls is fish. If there is a flock in one area it means that place is good for fishing. One should approach quietly and set the bait and just wait for the fish to start coming in.

6. Some fish stray when the water is clear but it is quite difficult since the fish can also see the bait. To be able to catch more fish, the best place to do it is in deep water.

7. It is also advisable to try a variety of bait when fishing. Some fish can easily be caught with one kind while others are not. It takes practice to get it right and patience for the fish to come out and haul it in.
