Flaming Gorge Pro Tip: Lake trout love tube jigs bounced along the bottom in 40 to 80 feet of water during summer months. For smallmouth bass, try a drop shot rig with a 4 inch soft plastic worked along rocky points and ledges. PowerBait in chartreuse or rainbow is the go to for stocked rainbow trout fishing from shore at Flaming Gorge.
