well, you got me curious. from what i can find, that strain of cuts is the largest of all strains. i imagine they can hold there own in that lake! id go give it a try just to find out. i would recommend using rapalas, or other baitfish imitator lures. try to match the colors and size of a crappie, or bluegill.

from what im reading on various websites, they sound just like any other cutthroat out there... only with a much larger potential. sounds like flies will work well for them in the mornings and evenings. i imagine a nice dark wooly bugger would be great. all the websites ive looked at have called the fish a "threatened species." id check with your states game and fish before going out.
good luck! and thanks for posting up. im glad i got to learn a bit about a pretty cool fish. (makes me wonder why we dont have them here!)
