    I’m fully in camp big bait for big trout. Look at what the bass guys are doing with giant glide baits. The problem is that it takes serious mental fortitude to throw a big lure all day, mental fortitude that I don’t have lol. Big trout are eating big pogies and mullet. Big topwaters and glides are what I have been messing around with this summer when targeting the big gals. I’ve had some success as well but it can also be boring as hell. I agree with @cliffhall that at times it can be more productive for smaller lures and profiles, but they are about to try to pack on weight after a summer of spawning and big meals are hard for them to pass up right now.
