I wanted to drop a note to thank you for bringing these lures to my attention. My youngest’s interest in fishing was quickly waning because she hadn’t caught anything in weeks/months. After picking up a Trout Magnet Neon Kit at Walmart, she proceeded to have one of her best days yet. Thanks again and Happy Father’s Day!
thank you for taking the time to drop this comment. Made my day!
Best colors for trout is black, bison, black/green,pink. If theres a hatch going, bison and black/green will generically match whatever is hatching. For when theres no hatch going on i use bubblegum pink, and all black.
Great video Victor . Thought i would share my limited experience with Trout Magnet colours that have worked for mr here in the UK . Fishing for European Perch and Pike in my local canal . Plain pink , plain chartreuse and plain gold have been the most successful colours for me . Fished with either 1-2 gram Jig head or 1-3 gram tungsten cheburashka weight . For roach , motor oil seems to be the best . This is what i found works best in the summer . The canal i fish is 3-8 feet deep . Crappie magnets i am yet to catch with . The problem for us here in the UK is we can only get trout magnets from Amazon . To give you an idea , 50 body packs of Trout Magnets cost $13.00 for white colour (cheapest one ) and $20.00 for pink colour . We only have 5 colours to pick from and the average pack for 50 bodies is around $15.00 . If we want to try other colours we have to buy the Trout Magnet 152-Piece Kit for $33.00 or the Trout Magnet Neon Kit - 70 Grub Bodies and 15 hooks for $35.00 . We can also get Trout Magnet Panfish Magnet Kit - 70 Split Tail Grub Bodies, 15 hooks for $22.00 . They are so expensive here . We even have one guy selling them on ebay UK for $8.00 each . Thats for 1 Trout Magnet body and 1 hook , not packet . I doubt anyone has bought from him though . Trout Magnets was bought to my attention after seeing Randy , Trout Magnet man fish with them .
im sure u can buy them from US and ship them there for cheaper.. But you would have to buy a few pounds of them things : )
Purple you like I believe is purple haze one of my favorites,my can change with crappie here from hour to hour
I love using the trout magnets when I'm fishing for trout, seriously I do.
My two main colors I enjoy using more than anything would be electric chicken and the green with the red flakes. Not that long ago I bought a few new packs. One color is glow and then the other one is called rainbow clear glitter,I think it's called and then you got the gold and black. I can't wait until I get out there and use them. Big Time bad weather here in Pennsylvania. Anyway I enjoyed the video and you have some amazing colors here.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
thank you!

Very welcome you are
Good video. My experience when I began with trout magnets for people who do not buy the big packs of trout magnets and want to experiment. Go to Walmart or dicks, and you can find the trout magnets packs which includes hooks and a small amount of trout magnets. Buy different colors for 1.50 each including the hooks.
You can then experiment with colors for the waters near you. You will then have a large collection of hooks leftover, and then buy big packs of your choice color.
My experience fishing ponds and lakes, rivers and streams near me in the NE: meal worm color for trout and panfish which is the solid tan color. In clear water and sunlight, I recommend the gold trout magnets hook as it will shimmer and sparkle as it falls in the water. Light pink also works for me in super clear water. In little darker waters in NE, I use pink and red hooks. I had bad experience with the red hooks as the paint was rubbing off on my hands. As recommend by victor, I sometimes use Jdm Japanese hooks with these guys now. And I always, always, always sharpen the original trout magnets hooks with a hook sharpening till it easily penetrates my skin and resharpen after a few dozen fish or snagging. In my area, fish are pressured and they will not attack a lure, but rather barely touch it and a sharpened hook is the difference between a tap or catching a fish.
Fantastic video, love seeing all the colors laid out vs product photos.
Good advice here!
But from my #1 color - it is save to get u a 50!!
When water is dark or very stained black and blue works fantastic. It stands out and gives a profile to the fish. Bright colors oddly are not good in dark water, at least for me. Not that you won't catch it just won't be as many. I wonder what the fish actually see compared to what we think they see?
algae bloom is in full force here. I don't think they can see much color. It all looks dark gray and light gray probably...
And yes, that's why i always keep black and blue, and some whites. Just to cover my bases
I've never tried these before. So many different kinds of plastics out there. For years growing up it was alway the ole Mr. Twister grubs. These days I'm trying different stuff like the tubes and marabou jigs. I did actually just pick up a bottle of that Crappie attractant by Berkley you showed here the other day. I was looking for the Slab Sauce Richard Geene talks about but the Berkley is what I found. It's a gel and not a spray.
Berkley is the best. I do not trust that slab sauce : )
Hey Victor I was very impressed that you caught that Nice Stripe Bass with that Gold & Black Trout Magnet at Shabby. I ordered me a pack and will use it as well. Very help full video. 🙂👍🏽
oh, thats u? I think we met once before, on that point... Sorry but, i cant see faces from that distance but i remember ur name.
Do u know randy, thetroutmagnetman? He is one of the biggest troutmagnet anglers out there, if not the biggest. I thought his color was saw bug, but he just told me that actually my favorite color is his favorite color too. I knew it - that's the best color, now i am confident about it : )
I don’t know Randy personally May have seen him if he fishes Shabby. I have been going there for over 15 years and came across many anglers. After you left the point were you caught the striper we caught close to 40 stripers between the dam and the Kazeboo that day and many Crappies. Always a pleasure to see you out at the lake. FishOn my friend.😎
Damn that trout magnet box is nice ... I’m gonna try that with half trout magnets and half crappie magnets. That grey and white one is what I caught my big bass on. Good video as always!
i don't recommend crappie magnets. U will catch fish but.. trout magnets are more effective
Nice video and thanks for taking the time and effort to help us with your opinion! Much appreciated!
thank u sir!
Nice 👍🏽 I love them trout magnets. I did not know they had so many different colors. Awesome stuff and very informative 🤙🏽
thanks buddy
Thanks 👍👍
thank YOU
My favorite lure. I pre-rig them exactly the same way and put a variety of colors in a fly box too. Great video! All the best brother!
thank u mr. Thomas! Yeah, i don't use most of the colors in the box , but i like to see them there because they look pretty, and i like knowing that i have options if something weird happens..
Like always thanks for all your information. I know it will always help us who follow your channel.
I appreciate that!
I’m going to look for those colors you recommended. Thanks
I think those would work for perch fishing i can't remember if you used them last fall in lake Michigan they definitely look good🐟🎣
they can be hard to see 30 feet down.. Also the jig head looks too big comparative to this tiny body. I tried but did not have success.
Victor has to be born between November 23- December 21. He gives me Sagittarius vibes.✌🏾

I fish a light tea colored water that I catch more crappie on white than any other color but will try some u are talking about fish mostly twister tails or tiny swim baits
now is the season for micro swimbaits for crappie!
please also explain how you use them , they are so light , hard to cast . i think that is more important than color, thank you very much . i like your videos and your honesty .
Hm... there is nothing different compared to jigging any other crappie jig, but let me think about a video on that
64 once jig ,,,, thank you very much
Victor .....What times does your tackle shop open....You've got a lot of stuff and a world of information....Could it be your Magnetic Personality!!
hah...
Wes u crazy from all that salt
Got a new favorite color,gold on a gold jighead
Hey Vic im trying to get into the trout magnets dressed with a 32nd oz roadrunners for the crappie. Doesn't look like much but being a perfect horizontal bait I'd think it should dominate 🎣. Thanks for your hard work man breaking things down in detail👌🏾
No need for road runners man. They deter fish, not attract. The less extra stupid metal u have on the jig the better. They chase it snd watch it
@@ifishcatfish Interesting🤔 I never thought of it like that but I guess your right simple is always key.
Keep
It
Simple
Stupid
The kiss procedure👍🏾
@@panfishin-fool8057 I dont think anyone with livescope is using road runners. U can see them follow it and turn around. Some are brave enough to eat it but u will get more fish without the stupid metal handing from the jig. Additionally, even when they try to eat it, if they come from below, the blade gets in the way, so u feel a bite but can't catch them.
@@ifishcatfish Makes all the sense. Livescope is proving that most of this stuff is just a myth when profile and presentation is everything. Mr Gene just makes everything look so damn fun lol
@@panfishin-fool8057 he makes everything look so easy but his lures are not the reason he's catching fish. He just understands what fish are doing at any point of time and knows where to find them.
Liked and subscribed. I am new and no trout yet.
The green with red flakes has been good for me on the gold jig head. I've caught bass, crappie, and bluegill in pond fishing on a single outing.
These are the best jigs for them: ifishtackle.com/collections/jigs/products/bg-1-micro-jig-head
Check all pictures and the video
@ifishcatfish Order placed a few minutes ago. Thank you!
Any idea on when the painted jig heads will be in?
@@r.j.macready5620 Packed nicely. The two packs of clips i put in a cute little jar instead of nylon bags. You will see only one jar, but it is 2x50 clips there!
@@r.j.macready5620 they are made overseas, right now.. But then there is 6 weeks because i use the cheapest shipping to reduce the cost.. I would say about two months from today..
Hey Victor! What kind of jig tackle box was that?
Im fishing now. When i get home i will give u a link. It is for flies of fly fishermen
Nice thx!
amzn.to/2WX6kNm
this is exactly like mine. As a matter of fact i am ordering one more. Mine costs $30 now for some weird reason, even though i can see it is exactly the same item. Amazon is weird like that sometimes.
this one is still the same, but only $9: amzn.to/3cVsgOB
Ok saw others and link,ty
Aren’t the the flat part goes on bottom to add action,but purple haze has light side up oddy
👍
What brand of tackle box is that for the jigs
ifishtackle.com/collections/miscellaneous/products/jig-box-from-my-videos
Also these are the best jigs for trout magnet in United States, and there is nothing even close!: ifishtackle.com/collections/jigs/products/bg-1-micro-jig-head
I keep forgetting to get crappie magnets they don’t have the kit on amazon like with trout magnets.
The stuff in the video is TROUT magnets. I do not like crappie magnets as much. Maybe my fish are too small. But i think it comes up too big for up where i fish. U will catch plenty of bass and catfish with the trout magnets. I don't see the need for crappie magnets
What rod would you recommend for throwing the Trout Magnet. The Trout Magnet site has a rod. But it’s always out of stock. Thanks.
i would recommend the shakespeare Micro Light, but the L power models. Not the UL, but the L. They are amazing and super cheap. See if u can find the 6'0 L
Thanks. I will take a look.
What size jigs do you use for the trout magnets ? I’m gonna order some threw your amazon are those the 1/16th ... and I ordered the box you showed in this video through your store front
Hi, Victor! What is the difference between Trout and Crappie Magnet? Do they all come in one size?
the only difference is size. Crappie magnet is a bigger trout magnet. Unfortunately i do not find the Crappie Magnet as effective as the trout magnet.
Good video. Actually Bison is my favorite.....but the Sow Bug turned out to be a great color. I have all the colors, but unless I am fishing for trout the only colors in my box are Bison and Sow Bug.
to be honest, i just want to see them in my box, makes me feel good. But unless i am doing some experimenting or struggling with bad conditions... its bison
How do you like the fly case you keep them in?Well done
i can't do without it. FOr years already. I find the cheapest one on amazon or ebay and buy 10 of them..
nice video men thank you for sharing
