I find that a rattletrap is a good way to search for trout, too. Much like the spooks, that noise gets reactionary hits. If it's a little too breezy for a top water, I'll throw a rattletrap to find them. Once they hit a few times, I'll try switching baits to draw out the bigger ones in the school.
Mirrolure, in my experience, works year round. I've caught trout on them in every season, even caught flounder on one, and of course drum. I fish the Pamlico sound here in NC.

Great info!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Here In Florida, Titusville, New Smyrna, Sebastian inlet, A MirrODine and a Zman 5" Diesel MinnowZ are my favorite choices. Especially around jetties

Nice tip!
How important are the tides when fishing for trout?
Current is more important. Gotta have that. As far as tide, I have always believed its spot specific. Would love to hear Jud/SS guys' input.
Moving water is a necessity for trout. Tide moving In or out in my experience doesn't matter in most places.
D Carter it sure I understand your reply?
D Carter not sure...I understand

It doesn't matter if the tide is moving in or out, as long as water is moving. I've not had luck with trout during the slack tide.
So would y'all use a mirror lure in summer time in NC?
