powerbait

[bkidder]

I use flies quite as bit... but my favorite is a renegade. Wolly buggers in dark colors have treated me good as well. Royal wolf is really good too. There are a lot of great flies out there. Fortunately my dad and brothers tie all that I need! I also use spinners quite a bit for trout. Panther Martins, Mepps, etc. These have always worked great for me. If I am trolling for trout I use my kokanee salmon gear. This seems to work better than my traditional "trout gear." Rocky Mt Tackle dodgers and lures have been working great for me. This time of year I have my best success on oranges and reds. Later, when the fish move deeper, pinks, blues, and chartreuse start to work best.

Anyways, plenty of options other than power bait! Hope this helps. Let me know if you would like more specific info on rigs. Do you have a boat, or are you shore bound?
