I thought I would give you an update.  The first attempt at fishing with the 20 ft taildancer resulted in an almost immediate hook-up with something large, which quickly broke me off.  It had to be a pike.  There goes $10, lol.  The next day I decided to troll the purple 30 ft taildancer through the middle of the north end of McDougall Lake.  Because I had a quick hit with the 20 ft diver, I used a short cast, hoping to keep the lure running shallower than it's full potential.  I hooked two 17" smallies in a row, then I hit something a little bigger.  After a few minutes I was rewarded with my first Lake Trout!  Thanks to everyone for helping me check that off my list.  I never did use the spoons, I will have to get those out on the next trip.  If I remember, it was 5.5 lbs, and maybe 25"?
