“Dear Readers, my 2015 lure of the year is The BEAR LAKE SECRET. This one-of-a-kind lure is made for catching BIG fish at Bear Lake. It works well for both cutthroat and lake trout at Bear Lake. It also catches a lot of kokanee at other lakes. I used this lure to set my personal record for total lake trout landed in one day. This new lure was the only lure that worked on my recent trip to Otter Creek, and it was red hot on big rainbow.”
