Tips on Trolling for Lake Trout using Crank Baits and a Teaser Trailing Spoon

- Hello folks, this week we're back in the freshwater as we've geared up with crank baits, t-turns, and the SS Viper Spoon as we troll for those lovely lake trout.
The day started out calm though the winds picked up after a few hours. Luckily, as the winds got stronger, the lake trout got bigger!
On top of all the fish-catching action, we also go over a bunch of tips to help you catch more lake trout while trolling.
As always, good luck and good fishin'!
Ivo
Great episode! I can almost smell the slime on your hands. that stinger is the only way to go if you are fly fishing or crank fishing. Great tip and way to show how it works!
Your friend on the water.
Sorry, we can't post the link in this reply but if you go to UA-cam just type in Thundermist musky fishing. Thanks!:)
Good job guys! Great work Antonio! Way to get on those fish early. Ever make it out to Vermont? You should come!
Wow! That was a great fishing trip!
Thanks!
Great fish at the end ivo! Good video
Love it ivo!!!
great video........beautiful lake
Good job I've never caught a trout befor
Antonio is always the first to strike!
at the delis, the "lake trout" is fried atlantic whiting usually. real lake trout like these in the video can be smoked, baked, fried, whatever.
That's a nice fish! Thanks for watching & glad you're enjoying the videos.:)
Good job mate
It was brief, but great & steelhead are also fun to catch. Thanks for writing & good fishing !
When you fish large mouth bass, can you try creek chubs as bait cause they work out good for me.
Have you ever used the Flexi as a trailer? Great video as always!
Hey Ivo,just wanted to know if you could possibly do Red Snapper fish episode.And great video
Thanks for your comments!
Thanks for your comment...those sting ray can put up quite a battle!
Thanks for watching & good fishing to you! :)
Wow great video with great tips, barely learning how to troll and hopefully this will help me land some nice trout.
Great to hear from you George and so glad you enjoyed this trolling for lake trout episode....all the best to you and good luck on the water :)
i love his videos :)
My wife are setting here, she is watching Dancing With The Stars and I am watching you on you tube. I am totally enjoying watching you all catch fish. No matter how many times I look at your videos I learn some good technique.
You guys kept saying that those fish you cought were lake size (small). Guys those were BIG! I am dreaming now of catching those trouts.
I'm so jealous , awesome video
Hi Grant - always great to hear from you and you sure brought a smile to my face - I love it :) Thanks for tuning in and please send my best to your wife :)
I got a 19 inch Smallmouth on a 6 inch chub one time, so they work for me to
nice, as usual
It was basically around 20' deep. The fish were shallower that time of year as the water was still very cold. Thanks for writing! :)
Hi Ryan, in Ontario, if you are under the age of 18, you do not need a fishing license. If you are an Ontario resident and are under 18 years old, you can fish in Ontario without a license :) If you are over 18 or live outside of Ontario, you will need a fishing license .
Very nice I wish i was there lol :)
We do...check out our fishing tips channel. Thanks!:)
great video,how is fall fishing for trout in lower niagara river?
Only another good one.
I just started using this set up at the lake and I've been catching all kinds of fish trolling on my kayak! I even got a trout and a crappie on each bait at the same time! Awesome videos keep on fishing!
Francisco Martinon Sounds like some great fishing Francisco :)
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! :)
i got almost a 4ft brook trout or brown i dont remember ....but anyway LOVE THE VIDEOS
I watch alot of fishing videos and you guys are real and can catch alot more and bigger fish than most of the prostaff from the major lure companies.
Great job!!! The Thundermist crew rocks!
Hi Daryl - we really appreciate your great feedback :) Thanks for taking time to send such a nice note and we are happy you are enjoying our videos....we will have plenty more coming your way so until then, good luck and good fishing :)

Lake trout are a lot of fun to catch - you will love it :)
Thanks. Never fished Vermont but I'm sure there's good fishing. Thanks! :)
Hey Ivo, Im not sure if you mentioned it, but what was Antonios setup? Same as yours?
Thanks! Good fishing to you Grant! :)
It's called Lew's Crankin' stick 7' medium heavy. Thanks!
One thing about lake trout, they'll take a wide variety of lures. Thanks! :)
Lake trout are super fun to catch. I caught my first one last weekend, it was 24 inches, 4 lbs, they are really good on the grill :) Our seasons are Mid-May through September, and January through Mid march.
Hi Sage - congrats on your first lake trout :)
It's world class - especially late fall. Good fishing! :)
Green is good for both conditions. :)
Great tip there guys! Im going to try it my next fishing trip. The lure you where using exept for the spoon is also a favorite so great rig! :)
We did keep one fish as it may have not survived the release...but generally we'll keep the odd small one. Thanks! :)

That's actually an old reel made by Cabelas. Unfortunately, I can't give you more details as the writing on the reel is worn to the point where i can't read it.
Thanks & good fishing to you George! :)

Glad you enjoyed this lake trout episode Mike and hope you have a great year on the water :)
Ok
So he got away
ok... why aren't you keeping those for some nice fillets????
Whoa. Can't wait to catch my first laker!
thanks
This was a treat to watch, do you get most of your fish on the crank bait or the bait behind the spoon? What minnow bait will work? Look forward to see more. Thanks!
HI Chuck - typically you get more on the crankbait, but it can vary from day to day - long slender crankbaits work best as they imitate such things like smelt (i.e. Thundermist Lure Company's American Smelt Crankbait) or shads :)
Must be some good fishing there! :)
It really was...good fishing ! :)
if you do post link in the reply
Hi Owen - it absolutely will work great for you :)
This was in mid April Thanks!:)
I was wondering. ... What kinda bait is Antonio using?
Hi Vonnie - I believe Antonio was using a Luhr Jesen deep diving crank bait - it was a deep diving shad :) good luck lake trout fishing
Smoked lake trout is great! :)
We may do that some day....good fishing! :)
That was a good one. Thanks!:)
Try targeting them. Once you catch a few & learn more about them, you'll want to fish for them even more. Thanks:)
What lb line are you using for leader and mainline?
main line 20 lb - leader 15 lb
What type of Rod do you use?~
I live in Michigan but never been fishing in lake Michigan .. Is there good fishing there? have you Been?
Hi Vonnie - Although I have not fished Lake Michigan, |I know there is plenty of fantastic fishing there :)
do lakers prefer the deepest waters of the lake? I have been planning to fish for them soon :)
Yes - the lake trout love deep water - in the spring though, you can catch them shallow, as we did in this episode - good luck...lake trout are a lot of fun to catch
thanks, good luck to you too, Ivo :)
