Deadliest Trout Lures?

If I told you I'd have to kill you.....or at least keep you off my streams/lakes.

panther martins....I was replacing the stock hook with a size bigger red one.

1" Power tube, white or pearl were the ticket.

I'd have a hard time choosing between Acme Kastmaster spoons and Panther Martin spinners if I had to chose just one lure to fish with, as far as spinfishing goes. I'd probably go with a Kastmaster if I had to pick between the two.

As far as flies, Parachute Adams abd a Chernobyl Ant would be #1 & #1a

Will be fishing for lakers in June in Ontario - clear water lake. Probably will be down deeper by the time we get there - never have fished for trout - any ideas on what lures to troll down deep? Color for clear water?? Thanks!!

For sheer numbers, hands down...Rapala. But not any Rapala, I have tried them all. The absolute best rap is a particular size of the countdown series, and either shad or bronze/black. These two lures are DEADLY. I have not had the same luck with any other variety of rap.

I do have to say that I am quickly becoming a fan of the Panther Martin though. I have recently just started using them and like the A LOT.

As for the particular size of rap...figure it out, it should not be too tough.

Little rapalas are my favorite for small streams then again so are Panther martins (yellow/red dots) ,rooster tails, XDs,minnow spins and vibraxes. Lakers might still be shallow in june up there but if need to get deep. For deep lakers try three way swivels w/ a enough weight (1-2 oz) to get you deep and then try spoons such as laker takers, willams wobblers, red eyes or jims flashbacks. You can also use rubber core sinkers, snap weights or lead line to get deep.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
