In spring, the trout pattern we use for lakers is trolling open water adjacent to humps and shoals - and sometimes right over the deep basin. Lakers come up and will take lures anywhere from 5-15 feet down so the running depth of the flat rap is fine. I also think it could be interesting along a deep weed edge - say running 8 feet down over 12 feet of water in the early summer for walleyes. The thing that appeals to me about them is the thin profile with that longer length. It really could be the ticket for for picking up bigger than average fish while working lots of water on a troll.
