I love spending a late-fall or winter morning wading around a trout pond casting spoons. I routinely have about a dozen different lures with me, but always end up using the Thomas Lures Rough Rider more than anything else. For its small 1/5-ounce size, it casts like a bullet without sacrificing action. The Rough Rider’s tight wiggle and flashy finish is deadly on trout, both newly stocked rainbows and wiley holdover browns.
