∙ 8y agoI caught my first rainbow trout on a "J-lure": shiny silver on the outside of the "J", red on the inside, un-baited treble hook following. Another high-country hiker on that trip caught his first rainbow trout on the pull-tab (with treble hook added) from an aluminum can. Many ocean fish will respond to a shiny object- it is believed that they are mistaking it for a live fish. Dolphinfish, also known as mahi mahi, dorado, or lampuga, respond very well to flying fish (shiny bait) as well as shiny lures.
