Secret trout bait

[brianvolt7]

Just had to tell everyone that today at the lake that was recently stalked my family knocked the planters dead. People lined the bank, we caught our limit in about 1 hour while everyone else around us didn?t even get a bite (boat wont start, I am working on it) literally not a bite! Smallest 11" one fat whopper at 15". The secret, well if I told everyone it wouldn?t be a secret anymore. I can tell you that this secret bait has worked for years in the same manor from boat or shore.

I will be thinking of all of my fellow fisherman tonight as I BBQ, through back some Heineken and feast. Cheers!

I have had guys tell me they spray WD-40 on their bait for catching walleyes. They say it works great. I've never tried it.

"I just had to tell everybody", that I'm not telling you?

Re: Secret trout bait

Not spray lube and not explosives. If someone mentions it I will fess up.

Thanks BOB VT, after searching the definitions of your post I am now on the G-Man watch list

Not from the bank next to other fisher men.Everybody would have caught a few floating around,besides,you need an accellerator.

Re: Secret trout bait

Okay about 20 yeas ago + (confession :redfacewe were using dynamite by a quarry that was flooded. We tied a stick on a 4' rope tied to a block of wood so we could see the water spout...... ka-boom ...... well, the timing must have been right because we had about 15-20 fish floating. The guy with me pointed them out and said... "look at the fish....they are stunned" Trust me they were not stunned

Re: Secret trout bait

OK, so alaskanassasin made some good guesses but not the right ones. It is a simple bait in combination with marshmellows or power bait anything that will make it float off of the bottom. Everyone has access to it, it is not mixed like a dough.

Ultimately when revealed, you all may think it is no big deal, but I assure you when fished with, it is the ultimate trout killer!

Re: Secret trout bait

Are you talking about the age old marshmallow and worm rigs??

Re: Secret trout bait

I use to use aged marshmellows small ones, night crawler, and squirt of wd-40.
When I was a kid we caught lots of trout on this type of rigging from the bank.

Re: Secret trout bait

I once heard velveeta cheese heated in combo with marshmallows to make a paste that can be formed into gobs.

Never tried it though...

Re: Secret trout bait

caution this could be a scam to get all of us to give up our secret fishing baits with the hope to get an even better secret bait.
I all ready gave up mine for rainbow trout.
I have tried cat food but could not get it stay on the hook. The bait they feed hatcher trout smells like cat food to me.
I guess you could mix canned cat food with something to create a paste that would stick on a hook. I think I am going to try it. Anyone already a receip for the mixture.
