Seeing as we'll all be fishing high water in central Wisconsin and most other parts of the state for this long awaited 2012 opener. what are some of your tips, tricks, and tactics for fishing high water stream trout? this info could be useful to fellow fisherman on the opener as well as other times throughout the season. good luck everyone and thanks in advance for the info!

Brighter or more contrasting colors. Also, in some cases, heavier weight flies, lures, etc. If you're baiting, you might need more weight. If it's really chocolate milk, it's hard to get them to bite, but it can be done...the few trout that are more easily accessible will usually be tighter to the bank and you can ninja crawl right up and dap a lure or bait in their faces for a reaction strike. Hope this helps!
