The French Creek is still loaded with trout, and they're still hittin' Trout Mags like crazy. White seems to be the best color, followed by hot pink.
The secret to these lures is how you fish them. Make sure you cast them upstream and let them drift downstream. While they're drifting, slowly reel in slack line and jig your rod tip lightly and repeatedly. You want to give the tail of the Magnet a fluttering motion, as if it is slowly kicking itself through the water. Don't let it hit the bottom, and try to only pause the jigging every once in a while because trout lose interest quickly with a lifeless Trout Magnet.
Trout follow these baits for a while sometimes, so watch for them. It's best to wear polarized sunglasses to cut through the glare. Also, trout tend to just nip at it quickly and spit it out so don't wait for them to 'take the bait' like other traditional baits.
