My Dad has always been a live bait, catch-and-eat trout angler. He had his doubts about the effectiveness of small swimbaits for early season trout. I convinced him to try the early catch and release trout season with me just for fun. We caught a bunch of nice trout on B-Vibes in short order including a true trophy inland brown. Safe to say he's a believer now!
