I've had luck (in the bow) on the smallest or second smallest rapalas they make in the rainbow or brown trout patterns. The extra small rainbow trout hook has worked especially well for trout, gold eye, walleye and even big whitefish on the bow and N Sask.

Well im in calgary.....so ill get the small rainbow one i guess ...can i have 2 treble hooks on it? Is there like ones that sink and float?

Tnx

The orange and black len thompson #8 worked well for me on the bow.

An old neighbor of mine used to tell me he used Buzz Bombs with pretty good success.

Rapala Countdown 7 or 5 in Rainbow or Brown Trout is probably one of the best choices. I've not fished them personally but when I take my friends out I give them one and they usually outfish me

^For best chance of fish that's definitely your best bet in my experience.

A small mepps in gold or silver. Use very light line, cast behind rocks and into eddies. You will see them coming for 10 feet and then they jump!

Have fun. If the water is all riled up it doesn't work.
