Was up north( Cloyne) this past weekend on 2 stocked lakes. One with Specks one with Rainbows. We threw everything we had at them. 2ft to 49ft of water not even a nibble. Any tips would be great. Going back next year.
Thanks

As a rule I'd concentrate on water less than 15' for both.  I've caught rainbows suspended just under the ice over deep water but it's a tough pattern to duplicate.

Inflows, points and downed trees or beaver lodges are usually good places to start.  If you get a chance, try to hit those lakes in the spring or fall during open water season.  It makes it much easier to locate the prime spots.  Lastly, not all stocked lakes are created equal but the nice thing is where you find one, you usually don't need to travel too far to find the next one.  For me, the presence of bass and or cottages are nonstarters.

Thanks for the advice.

I don't know about bows but specks tend to be quite shallow. If you can find trees that have toppled into the water, that would be prime.
