I an heading out to a place out in nh that has a lot of smallish Lakers and a few big ones tomorrow morning and I was wondering what I should tie on first. I have a bunch of minnows to tip stuff with and I might put one on a deadstick for maybe some smallies or hopefully my first iced lake trout. Right now I have a small tungsten on to maybe catch some rainbows if it is slow and on my bigger rod i have a maribou jig that I might tip with a minnow body or head. What do all of you like to drop for lake trout because I'm looking for ideas on what I should bring tomorrow

I always have a white tube jig tied on one rod. Swedish pimples or buckshot spoons would be my second and third options.
-
I've always been not picky so
Northland Mimic Minnow
Storm Wildeye Swim Shad or Live Shiner
Bucktail jigs or airplane jigs
Jigs with curly tail plastics
A variety of spoons I always have.
A variety of lipless cranks...

1. Venom Minnow Flash Tubes
2. Any smaller Swedish pimple tipped with a minnow tail. My buddy has had good luck with the silver with green sticker or the all white.
3. zman diezel minnowz in either Pearl or Pearl Blue Glimmer

I find that small lakers hit best on just a minnow with a sinker.
-
they seem to like my slender spoons while im perch fishing.
-
7 inch Toro tube jig with a 1 ounce tube jig hook tipped with whitefish. I don’t mess around with small fish. 🤪
-
Leech Flutter spoons and Jigging Raps
-
Definitely the Swedish pimple is the go-to for me

Bondy lures
