Thanks.
The Gray Ghost was created ...Peter Carlson,<br />Thanks.<br />The Gray Ghost was created in an area of Maine where big lakes are many. These lakes all hold smelt a primary forage of brook trout and salmon. In a lake that has smelt the Ghost works it's magic best, for that is what it represents. There are several lakes in CT that have good populations of smelt, as well as the headwaters of a well know CT trout river. I have taken many trout in that lake as well as the section of river that is it's start.<br /><br />As far as fishing the Gray Ghost it will work fished in the traditional manor of quartering down stream, and retrieving at various speeds. In lakes, especially early season you can fish it on a sinking line. Cast and retrieve, or it can be trolled.Brk Trthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677442640158367831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7050365015235775568.post-45287632240157050782014-03-05T17:42:44.107-05:002014-03-05T17:42:44.107-05:00Chasing Blue Lines,

I've used it as a stream to no avail. I do have a few salt water patterns that look like Gray Ghost anchovies that I've had success with.
