How to catch stocked Rainbows?

[JohnnyUtah]

With stocked rainbow trout they will eat anything that catches there attention. Fish dont have hands, so they need to put it in there mouth to figure out what it is. This is why when you "show them something new" it works.

Good flies for this purpose of attention harnessing, would flashbacks such as this

U.V. Diamond scud

Hands down though the ultimate rainbow fly is the Infamous Pink Worm

Logan,

Just get some bright orange dubbing and wrap a little under the san juan worm. It's a junk fly a guy I know came up with. It rocks when I use it. Sepecially on rainbows. And Steelheads...but don't tell anyone.
