Your favorite trout doughbait

[kcdinkerz]

So what brand and colors/ flavors do you guys like best? My all time favorite is berkly pb in original yellow. Don't know why but the other colors just doesn't produce as many bites as that yellow. Feel free to chime in if you got recipes you'd like to share.

Haven't trout fished in a while, but I would use the Berkeley glitter green or glitter chartreuse with added silver glitter from Walmart. An inflated nightcrawler on a sliding sinker rig for lake fishing on 4lb test was the ticket back in the day....

I don't use doughbait. Closest thing is Gulp eggs. I've had good luck with 1 white and 1 pink on a hook but I'd almost rather not fish than resort to using them. Thankfully I haven't needed them for the last several trout seasons.

Yeah bank fishing sucks sometimes gotta set that power bait or you'll miss them as they school by.

What other techniques have you been using? Curious.

I use a Ned rig, little cleo, and a micro jig under a bobber, that's it.

How do you set up/ use the ned rig and micro jig? What would I need?

Hope all is well.

Ned rig I do the same as I do for bass. The micro jig I fish a few feet under a small bobber and let the waves work the bait or give it little twitches if it's really calm.

Salmon Peach Powerbait is all the rage with the stock truck followin' 12lb test 1/2oz weight plunkin' folks around here haha.

 

Seriously, I work at Gander Mountain and we are stocking several hundred jars of that color on the shelves this spring, one guy has already placed 20 jars on hold for himself.

 

 

I quit using dough and went to power eggs a while ago, they are hard to find but way easier to use and IMO catch more fish.
