Best big trout bait
 

What do y'all think is the best big trout bait?

mullet and croakers :thefinger:

I heard these work GREAT.....:D

live mullet!

Saw some wadefishermen at the ramp and asked what the hell that bait was they had and it was a 'corky' they had a 6.5 lb trout and said they had a 10 last year. But if I wanted to catch a big fish I would put a big ol pogie on and let it ride!

corkys are good for $7.99 a lure!

the one you have the most confidence in is by far the best.

Why not throw big swim baits

This is what you want.....Throw a Corky!!!

I got all the cheap one ......

$20 per bait:*****::*****::*****: We are from LA??? Home of FEMA and Foodstamps

I have only tried wading the lake once and wasn't very successful. That was salty cajun tourney last year and the weather was awful. Gonna try it a bunch after duck season. I have about $200 in corky's and haven't caught a trout on one yet. Hopefully I change that in the next month or so. Until I catch one on a corky, my big fish bait is a bone or white/chartreuse Super Spook or live bait. :)

Some nice lookin" baits. But at that price someone can have my share of 'em!

x2

Why u think I posted the spensive ones???? I found em for way way cheaper !

I had some of these and liked how they looked and the action but my bag got stolen/lost before I caught anything on em

Seems like most all the big trout baits are made in Tejas.

Give ya $100 for them and gettem off ya hands.:smokin:

has anybody had problems with the new corkys and the fact that they are full of air bubbles?

By end of spring, if I still haven't caught one, I might take u up on that.

I’m sure they have a million of them that never caught a trout...this bait needs time and patience to fish......I only fish one wading and then I hate to fish them...

I can catch the same big trout with a Sand Eel Sr or Jerk Jr with a 1/8 oz jig head....I will catch more fish with this set up as well...

I have caught some nice ones on Corkys but I rather wade and catch numbers of big trout than one or two....

You caught your pb on a sand eel didnt you?

Jerk Jr.....

Lake Record was on a Sand Eel jr....11.4lbs

Go post that on 2cool. :*****:

After fishing yesterday we tried for a big trout and rigged up some Mann's Stretch 30's and pulled a couple of ballyhoo rigs behind a purple/black marauder. We got some crazy looks from the drifters so we just switched to Flying Lures and Helicopter Lures with our Pocket Fisherman and it was game on. 6 lbs plus on EVERY cast

U right. I have caught 95% of my trout on the lake on sand eels. Only 1 over 5 lbs. But when I'm hoggin, I don't throw eels. Confidence issues I guess. Everything else over 5 on topwater and a few on live.

:rotfl::rotfl::shaking::p:work::help::*****::cry:: *****::*****::*****:

If I am looking for a hanger I am throwing a big topwater

I have caught countless over 6 on sand eel jr......Damn Darren O slung a 8lb 31inch trout and then threw right back out and caught a 7.6 with a sand eel jr ...two years ago..

Corkys are trash. I will give you $3 a bait no matter the color or type.

Pink corky fat boy for sure.

They say bigger bait equals big fish....my personal best was a 6 1/2 pounder caught on a sparkle beetle. A she dog is my favorite to target bigger trout on,caught several 5's on that lure.

I gotz some bomber topwater baits I like gonna give em a try in a couple months

Mirrolure in the surf.
Either a Top dawg, She dawg or a 51 or 52 M if the top ain't workin.
Caught some bigguns on a Chug Bug too.

she-dog top-dog super-spook in bone, white/chart, chrome/chart, and a ton of others work for me my personal best was only 5lbs but was caught in the surf on a green/white top-dog

the 4 biggest trout that came into my boat were caught on sparkle beetles.. 8 and 3 between 6-7. Also hooked another 8-9 on a deadly dudely.. lost her at the boat ;(

Super Spook-spring

Floater-winter

right place, right time, and whatever floats in front of their face....i think they will eat anything that is in front of them. now knowing where to be and when to be there is another thing...other than that the before mentioned baits up your chances...thats what i think anyway

I agree with this. In order to consistently catch big trout...you have to think like a big trout. But, there is an enormous amount of luck involved.

Disagree.....It does not take luck to catch big trout.........you just have to know where and when to fish them...AKA Find them....

Floater in winter goes against what you would think. Interesting!

And that's where the luck comes in.

No such thing as luck,just in the right place at the right time. :*****:
