Default RE: Orange Beach trophy trout

I'd love to give some kind of secret professional tactic but the winter trout bite in the lagoon means live bait mostly. Mullet are the ticket. Not finger mullet, MULLET! 7-9 inchers get the job done on big, lethargic winter trout. On warmer afternoons you can get some big ones on large topwaters like the super spook or yo-Zuri hydro pencil but on most days they will be in deep holes and pretty inactive. It seems like they don't want to chase something down unless it is going to be a substantial meal.
