I remember fishing lake Michigan (northwest indiana) about twenty years ago. Fellas were fishing browns, cohos, steelhead...mostly bait, squid under a a float, the bite was slow. Most were fishing the outflow of a power plant discharge.
The wind picked up and I happened to see the 2-3 ft. surf roll in and spotted what looked like fish in the waves. I tied on a krocodile spoon in pink and pearl and started casting far into the surf. I proceeded to wail on the brown trout.
When I left guys were lining up on the beach,but few had Kroc spoons. A few lil Cleo tossers were scoring....but no one had the success I experienced with the Kroc..helluva hard bait.
