Most of the time I'll be fishing the lower end of the lake on the hard bottomed flats. Usually I'll be casting a one ounce SpoonDog in chartreuse or gold. It allows me to cover lots of water. On really slick days the Rebel is a great lure for catching big trout. And, let me add this, about 100 percent of the wall trout caught in Texas are by waders.
Big trout are just too skittish to approach while drifting in a boat.
Chest waders will generally be a must this time of year. Wade quietly and keep a sharp lookout for big fish. Many are seen on the flats long before a lure is sent flying in their direction.
