Tackle – Rapala

The Rapala Husky Jerk works awesome on the Lower Kananaskis Lake for the huge Bull Trout that live there. The color I use when fishing the Lower Lake is called silver/blue and the action on this lure seems to make the trout go wild. Rapala lists this lure not only for trout but also for Panfish, Bass, Pike, Salmon and Walleye. This lure runs at a depth of 4 – 8 feet and should be tied on with a Rapala knot for best results. It looks like Rapala has come out with a new lure to mark the 100th anniversary of designing fishing lures. These limited edition lures are made with the star foil used on the original Rapala’s back in the early 1960’s. These lures come in three color choices for you to choose from, they are Gold with a Brown Orange belly, Silver and Olive and Silver and Grey.
