Years ago I fished them on a mountain lake in CO. The regs called for no live bait, so we tipped them with sucker meat. Fished with a lift, drop, hold, then lowered them right to the deck. The lake trout would often grab them just as you pulled off bottom. We were fishing 30fow and the bites felt almost like a little weed or something was attached. Most of the fish were small but I did ice one 27'' female on 4#. Pretty exciting, considering we were really on a ski trip, and I threw a bucket of ice tackle in last minute. The views on the lake (Turquois) were worth the price of a day license, even if the fish weren't biting. Ringed by snowcapped peaks, I can still picture it 14 years later. The jigs were chartreuse an geen, with a small treble stinger.
