The largest fish I have caught for the past year have all come on a Mirrodine. By far my favorite lure. (Having said that I am not putting chunks of blue crab at 40 ft).
Great day with the trout today. All on Mirrodine. Fished in coming 68 degree and clear to 3 ft. Off shoot creeks close to main channels.
Caught 6 this way and largest was 17 inches.
Next i fished out going 71 degree water and muddy. 1ft vis. Mirrodine again but main channel near oyster lined outer bends. I saw them suspending off the bottom at 8ft. Caught this 20 in her and thought it was a red
I leave both sets of trebles. If they don’t come rigged with them already, I switch the trebles up to VMC Permasteel hooks. More corrosion resistant. If someone made Stainless trebles, I’d probably run those instead.
I usually leave the trebles on until they rust. Then I change them out. Only exception is on the top dog jr. On that I put a bigger heavier treble on back so it will sit tail down in the water. That is for the Reds to hook up better.
