Lake Trout, Trolling Lake Trolls & Tube Jigs 5/17/23

Duke & Jerred who help me with a component for our fishing tackle came up and we hit the water. We found several lake trout using the lake Trolls and the 6.5" Mega tube Speckled Grey.

Wow you have introduced me to a new technique! Trolling tubes I would have never thought of it. Well done, I have subscribed.

Hace you guys caught any good size lake trout at buck board marina area

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

A few over the years. I will be heading up there in the next few weeks.

[@kylebeach4584]

What part of flaming Gorge were you fishing? I’m heading there for the first time next week and just wondering where I should try? Great video!

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

We have fished hideout, Sheep Creek, stateline, and anvil.

Do you use the Pro-Troll black box or equivalent on your downrigger cable?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

No, never heard of it.

[@CodyChristineRich-xq9lg]

Are you using any scent in the tube jigs? Awesome video.

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

No scent or bait

[@daltonparke3405]

What depth are you running your lake trolls?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

25-90 feet right now

[@deanstuart9461]

Would this technique work all year or is it a spring technique?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

This works all year

[@deanstuart9461]

How do you rig up your tubes? It looks like you have treble hooks.

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

8mm beads and a 2/0-4/0 treble hook on 30 pound test.

[@KellyEarl]

Can you tell me what kind of rods and reels you are using?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

Eagle claw starfire combo

[@deanstuart9461]

Have you ever tried this technique in Bear Lake?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

No I haven't

[@mellenjuice]

How is it trolling your lake trolls without a downrigger? I’d imagine they have a pretty good amount of drag. Currently using magnum size dipsy divers

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

I have run these on steel line with a 6-8 oz bottom bouncer setup.

[@mellenjuice]

@@LakeShoreTackle08 what speed do you suggest for the lake trolls?

[@LakeShoreTackle08]

1.4-1.7 mph
