Mepps- sacrilege I know but I've never caught a damned thing on them. Ever. Throw anything else over the side - slam fish all day long.
Wacky rigged worms. Dad and brother swear by em, fish them a lot. Not me. Never liked em.
That is sacrilege! I think a #2 gold Mepps is THE best lure made. Not the best for lakes but in the right type of river or stream it is deadly. You need to know how to fish it in the current and once you learn it you'll catch a lot of trout.
