I've had great success on stocked trout in CA's Donner Lake with Jakes spin a lure. The lure is like the very, very old super duper; heavier, brass with red spots.
I've caught a lot of fish over the years with the Cyclone. I like it better than the Bouyant. I consider the Bouyant to be a little bit too shiny. The slightly duller color of the Cyclone seems better to me.
I almost always get bit just as I’m pulling away from the dam and heading out. Never fails. I got there two days after they released a bunch of broods. Several months ago. Four of my five fish were brooders.
PK, I have used the Acme version of that same lure for years, it does get the trout! I like your comment about finding the old gear from the 80's, I found tackle from the 50's from my Uncle, some interesting items like turnbuckle style swivels.. I will save you a few, they are unique. Also, those stock trout get real nice in the cold water, you will not know they are stock from the high quality.
Allow me to interject, maintaining troll speed helps keep line tension, which helps prevent lost hookups. On a side note, always keep your rod tip up, and rod bend helps keep line tension.
@@edquier40 Thanks, I also didn't understand your powerbait attachment to a lure. The powerbait I use barely stays on the hook when shore fishing, how do you keep in on a fluttering lure?
Many people keep moving to keep the line tight so the fish is less likely to come off. I stop my kayak when I'm sure the fish is hooked to play the fish. I don't keep stocked trout so I don't really care if they come off.

I'm jealous. If I was younger, I'd be out every weekend. I grew up catching trout. Good eating. I love your videos

Thomas Rough Rider is awesome too 👍
PK anouther great video, thanks.
Great job... so fun to watch. Why don't you stop your kayak when reeling in?

@@kentfonda8245 I do not use powerbait, but I am thinking he uses the soft bait that clings to the treble.

@@Gregfishes I use the same technique when trolling for salmon with barbless hooks,
Do you fish for Salmon, Bong?
Damn I feel REALLY OLD by you saying the the tackle box from the 80’s was “Really Old”
😂
Get rid of those treble hooks.
