Hhunn Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 got a few browns on 68s...they will hit it but I have better luck with bread and dog food if I am fishing for trout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_R_TX Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 http://swimbaitunderground.com/forums/index.php?/topic/30831-trout-fishing/ Here is a thread from a little while ago. Flipside is a good place to check for anything non-bass related. wallyc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hroth33 Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 I've had luck with big brownies and really big rainbows (24"+) with 68's and small glide baits around 7" with some flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Ramen Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 I've caught browns on smaller soft swimbaits (before I had any glides besides Slide Swimmers). I'm sure they would work. If you are not married to going real big, check out the Fish Arrow Flash-J Huddle. They run from 2" to 4" IIRC. The quality on them is amazing. Put it on small jig head or rig it with a small offset hook. With the jig head, you can hop it around on rocks or gravel. I use a small flippin' hook for the offset rig so the shank has enough weight to work as a keel. There are lots of ways to rig it.Some video: https://youtu.be/bPnrOl4DVyw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJS2500 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 I've been dying to go to Pyramid lake in Nevada and throw some big baits for some of the pilot peak strain trout......MONSTERS danthefisherman and everythingthatswims 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennyisnotdead Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Yesterday I used a hudd perch 68 RF12 on a #1 dipsy diver down 50ft. Would be better with a downrigger but I do not have any or a leadcore rig. I'm gonna throw the RF 5 next spring when they are in shallow.
