Goose, never fished Lake Trout with UV lures but in the late 60's an 70's we would use the same size of lure. #4 Red & White( Daredevil), bright silver Ruby Eye and later on the 5 of Diamonds. They all worked well in the spring when the lakers were up shallow or mid summer when they were down 65 to 85 feet. Pretty sure it's all about the action and not the colour, but if the UV catches fish stay with it. Size and action of lure on any given day will make a difference. Other fishermen may have had the same results as yourself, I have not used that style of lure, just saying what has worked in the past and still works to this day according to my teacher(DAD).
