Minnows

Minnows work well for many types of trout, however, many anglers don’t use minnows when fishing for trout.  Fathead minnows, shiner minnows and even smaller chubs and suckers will catch many different types of trout.  Cutthroat trout will eat minnows as well. Fish the minnows under a bobber, on a split shot rig, drop shot rig or any of your other favorite types of live bait rigs and you should be able to catch some cutthroat trout.
