Techniques

Any M-sized rod and reel will work. The Rainbow Trout is not picky at all; it even takes the Free Bait. For lures, any Spoons will work except for the Beetle line.

The best place to catch this fish is at the Kerikil Waterfall. There is nothing else but the Rainbow Trout and the Brook Trout. In Kanan Lake, it can be found on East Sparse Rock area alongside other salmonids, though sometimes strays as far as the Reed Point area.
