I may be missing the point but trout do take bread dont they?

I've had some awesome trout on my local stretch of river using bread punch. I'm talking 3lb wild brownies and what a fight!!

Trout will definitely take a big lump of trotted flake, in fact if you find the right place and just hold it back really hard they almost hit it like a lure.

when I was a youngster i did a little poaching for trout .bread was a good bait as it stood out in the twilight,also it was cheap .

nothing wrong with bread for trout . . . infact a lot of Trout river anglers of the fly persuasion often complain when anglers use bread . . under the seed bait rules (fly, worm and minnow, artificial baits only)

nowt wrong with bread as a trout bait . . sometimes it is the only way to pick em off in the slacks with floating crust . .

Me too Rob!

But 3lb test curve rods and size 6 trebles for Zander ?

Depends on what size Zeds your targeting malcom

but as general advice ? My input would have been. 12lb wonder wire, size 10 trebles, and small roach or smelts, and absolutely minimal restistance. Targeting to low doubles.
