if the crankbait is slow, use the spoon Maybe Walleye would be a better choice since they bite like crazy in NY. But I would not personally travel to Alberta to farm these fish. If you have difficulty fighting a 12lb Lake Trout, then target lesser fish like Pike, Brook Trout, and Lake Whitefish. Just rinse and repeat these steps to not lose a big fish :)Īlso, you want to optimize your time here. Here, the drag is too strong and to back off a notch will be less chance for you to lose the fish but the fish may run when you do this, so compensate by increasing drag. *Important* When you land a big fish and the tension is bouncing all over the place, this means this fish is trying to get unhooked as the gauges on the right will be drastically going up and down. Recommended keepnet: FishFort XL or better (to keep uni lake trout) but not required. Even with my lvl 39 spinning gear, these fish put up a fun fight. This is a great lure for farming shells for the Voodoo Fish Mission and catching giant trophy and 40-50lb Uni Lake Trout. As you learn where to fish this lure, you will snag shells less often. Make sure you have lvl 28 spinning gear setup or so be4 going for those big fish. Use a #6/0 medium spoon to land more 20-50lb monsters here, as they lurk in the deep usually. The medium spoon is a little more challenging as you may snag shells, but will never lose a lure. Cast out to the deep areas again and let it sink but don't hit bottom. Target species: lots of Salmon/trophy and smaller Lake Trout.įor the medium spoon: I prefer lemon tiger.

Bring up your map and cast out to the deep area as far as you can.įor crankbait: use the 30ft lure in the deep areas and a 12-16ft crankbait in the shallow areas. * This guide uses spinning rods and reels to achieve a far cast and good lure action and targets the Atlantic Salmon / Lake Trout species.įor easier farming use #3 and #4 /0 hooks on your lures.
