I play around with Lake trout a lot when the early trout die down and the kings are not hitting good yet and I mostly just use my salmon gear. NBK spoons, white flasher and flies, and I do well with gold colors on them as well. Last year I had 8 on in one day on a greasy chicken spinny with goby live fly. Slow is the key, green and silver spoons work well also. I usually fish them when the water starts to warm up and they are on the bottom between 80 and 100 fow. There are times when you can find them all over the water colum early season.
