Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Trout Trap Mini Tube Jig best for?

The Trout Trap is a mini tube jig for trout that want a tiny, subtle bait. It shines in clear water and post-cold-front conditions when fish move shallow and turn spooky. The micro tube profile draws instinctive chases from stocked and wild rainbows, and it comes three jigs to a pack.

How do I fish the Trout Trap?

Cast it on light or ultralight spinning gear and let it sink, then work it back with small hops and pauses. The mini tube body pulses on the drop, which is when most strikes come. You can also jig it vertically over structure to reach trout holding deeper down.

What colors and sizes does the Trout Trap come in?

It comes in 38 color and weight combinations across 1/32 and 1/64 ounce heads. The lighter 1/64 ounce sinks slowly for shallow, spooky fish, while the 1/32 ounce reaches deeper drifts and holds bottom when jigging. Colors run from natural pearls to bright chartreuse and flake patterns.

What hook does the Trout Trap use?

The Trout Trap is tied on a premium Gamakatsu hook, which bites and holds on even the most tentative strikes. That matters with a finesse presentation, since spooky clear-water trout often just nip the tube. The sharp hook turns those light taps into solid hookups on light line.

Can I add scent to the Trout Trap?

Yes. Dab Bug Juice Gel Scent on the tube to add a scent trail to the finesse presentation. The gel gives clear-water trout an extra reason to hold on after they nip the tube, buying the split second you need to set the hook. Refresh it between casts.
