2023 Flaming Gorge Derby Day 1 (Targeting Trophy Lake Trout)

Coy, Ben, and I hit the lake in hope of finding a Lake Trout over 40". We catch lots of fish and we may have found the Monster Laker we need. Trolling Lake Trolls & 6.5" Mega Tube Jigs. www.lakeshoretackle.com

I would like to try these lake trolls out. Could you give some tips on rods, reels, line and basics on how to use it?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

I use yhe eagle claw starfire. 30 pound test mono. I use the red offshore downrigger release. 1.4-1.8 mph putting them as close to the bottom as you can

@@LakeShoreTackle08 sweet thanks! I noticed you have a location there is Manila that I haven’t seen before. Do you have an open to the public store?

@outdoorswithclem6671 no, it is just a manufacturing facility as we sell to all the local retailers.

All your lake trolls show out of stock. Do you plan on having more soon?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

I am currently stocking all of our retailers. We had a huge increase in lake troll orders. Basspro/Cabela's have 4 great colors and are in stock ready to ship. We have many retailers around Flaming Gorge that are getting restocked, as well as some stores in Vernal, Green River, and Colorado.
