swedish pimples
I just got my shipment from cabelas of swedish pimples to go fish trout with. I originally bought them to fish down in La Paz in place of the corcs that work so good but I bought some that were too light so decided to save them for trout fishing and man I am happy I did. If you fish them like a super duper or a small kastmaster and let them fall, the trout go nuts for them and hit them on the fall and as a bouns they will hit on the slow retrieve too.

Swedish Pimples were originally used for ice fishing for yellow perch, but they do work well for trout--not just in lakes, but streams too

that would also explain why they hit them on the drop, since casting and retrieving while icefishing can be a bit hard

These spoons are also deadly on large mouth and striped bass
I have seen Keene hook up on both species with the pimple
I think it was a # 6 ?
