I, for one, do not buy into the thought that lures work in one area of the coast and do not in others. If Bayou Chubs work great in the Dularge/Cocodrie area, it does not mean that Norton Eels won't. And, if Nortons seem to be the bait of choice on Big Lake, Chubs will consistently catch fish there, also. These trout are not programmed like robots to hit a certain bait in a certain area. During my only trip to Big Lake, my buddy and myself threw nothing but Bombers for 2 days and caught big trout. Our guide had never seen a Long "A" and, there's a good chance, that the fish hadn't either.
