Decided to run the boat and catch some bait and try out some series. I threw the 19 Mr mirror lure in mullet pattern and the 17Mr in rain bait glass minnow pattern. I was ripping it pretty quick so they were close to the top and I could see them swing and miss and had several surface blow ups. It was like top water fishing. I had lots of followers and a few that struck right under my rod tip. I was zoned out and got a hit right at the boat on top of the water and it spooked me a little. Lol. Lots of missed strikes I went 3 for like 20 or 30 hits. Boat flipped a 20incher and he popped of in the air and landed in the boat in my cast net. A absolute mess because the top treble snagged the net. When I went to flip him the entire bait was down his throat and he hit it on top 5 ft from the boat. Gut hooked on a top water is a first for me. High out going 5 to 6 pm.
Rubber net will help immensely. Good catching!

Probably the most fun I’ve had trout fishing. Does anyone fish mirror lures with single hooks. Out of the 3 fish i hooked 2 got mauled by the trebles. I kept the 20incher because he was hooked so deep.
