A Pair of Deadly Lures for Trout & Landlocked Salmon

The Mack ’ s Lure line up is packed with

flashers , dodgers and variety of spinners and spoons that trout and salmon anglers

can count on to perform on the water .

I ’ ve been using a lot of the gear that Mack ’ s offers for years . Here are two of my all-time favorites . Give these lures a spin and see what the trout and landlocked salmon at your home lake think of them !

Wedding Ring Spinners

If your father or grandfather trolled for trout there is a good chance they used Wedding Ring spinners , a favorite for over 40 years .

The original Wedding Ring spinner is handtied on monofilament line giving it greater action in the water than lures made with wire . The highest quality rhinestone diamonds create a brilliant reflection that captivates trout . A glance at the Mack ’ s Lure website or cata-

logue reveals more Wedding Ring variation then can be touched upon here including mini versions , Smile Blade models , UV spinners and more !

The Single Series Kokanee Killer model combines a Glo Hook with the Wedding Ring Spinner to create a deadly combination for kokanee as well as trout .

As effective as standard blade Wedding Rings are , there is a variation on the old standard that no trout enthusiast should be without . I ’ m talking about the Double Whammy Smile Blade Equipped Pro Series Spinner . This bait is armed with a pair of super sharp hooks , contrasting bead colors and the deadly 1.1 size smile blade . This bait comes in a long list of color combinations .

by Cal Kellogg lure that has created quite a stir . Wiggle hoochies come pre-rigged with a long leader and a pair of hooks and are fitted with a special clear plastic lip that make them wiggle pretty much the way a crankbait does .

The Wiggle Hoochie looks goofy and honestly , I avoided using them for a long time , but I ’ ve got to admit that they are a deadly trout and salmon lure . I ’ ve caught dozens of hefty rainbows on them and I ’ ve watched Fish Sniffer Publisher Paul Kneeland catch dozens more .

We run our Wiggle Hoochies without the addition of dodgers and they work great . At times , I ’ ll put Wiggle Hoochies on a 36-inch

leader and slide them down a deep downrigger line as a dropper . While fishing for kokanee at Don Pedro , I had to stop using my Wiggle Hoochie dropper because I was catching so many rainbows that I wasn ’ t able to keep my kokanee lure in the strike zone for any length of time .
