#9634, "RE: Trophy Browns..."
In response to In response to 0


          

I have tried a 6" castaic trout but do not like trolling it. I like to troll between 2-3mph and have found that this lure does not like going that fast and the action seems near non-existent. Since most of the time I am trolling rocks and stump areas and prefer lures that have a lot of action, I have stayed cheap using rapalas. I would be a bit afraid trolling a $40-100 lure through these areas on 12lb flouro leader only to have a rock/stump catch it or a brown's teeth saw the line.

The only time I will pick up the Castaic is when the food truck (stocker rainbows) just dumped their load into the lake and the browns are coming in for dinner. But instead of trolling, I drift through the area, cast it out and reel it in slowly like a disorientated rainbow.
