I have been using lymans for a couple years now. They were introduced to me by a friend. He said you have to try these wood plugs. He said they act different and really mimic wounded fish, and the action was crazy. Well let me tell ya, I purchased some in different sizes and trolled for trout and stripe bass. The fish inhaled these things!! These plugs worked awesome!! I doubled my catch rate and pretty much out fished my fishing partners.I am going to use on a trip to Florida, they are my go to lure . Thanks for making a great product that does exactly what you said it does…. and that is catch fish.
Last october on an annual week long fishing trip to southhamptom ontario with my dad and a buddy I was having no luck the first 5 days.
I had fish on but they were not taking the lures good. So I went to a store and purchased a #10 size 3 lyman. and the next 2 days I have never caught and released so many rainbow trout. They hammered that lure. so I would like to say thanks for turning my trip around. Now I have to fill up my tackle box with lymans
I had heard that the double jointed 5" Sebile lures were beating out your Lyman plugs on Lake Pend Oreille, ID during some contests. So I purchased 4 Sebile 5" lures. I already had 4 of your 4" plugs all in the cloudy day colors. So my buddy and I trolled just two rods and fished a Sebile and a "dark day" Lyman 4" plug. It was low overcast with no sun all 3 days we fished. The Sebile's are all very bright & shiny. So the "dark day" colors of your plugs may have played a role. Whatever, your Lyman's won out. I must admit I was surprised as the Sebiles have a loud rattle, too. I am starting to keep a log on Lake PO in an effort to figure out just what lures to use there. In those 3 days we caught 10 rainbows on your plugs and 7 on the shiny Sebile's. None of the trout were very big but the largest one happened to hit a Lyman. It was lots of fun in a beautiful place! I have a fishing buddy, who turned me on to your plugs, who fishes Lake Koocanusa near Eureka, MT, and has really good luck with your 4" plugs also on Kamloops. He told me I was crazy if I didn't try your plugs so I did. And, as you know, I am now ordering up 9 more!
I live in Western Montana and have been learning to fish for Lake Trout (Macks). While traveling last summer in Libby Montana I stopped in at the Libby Sport Center and talked fishing with them. A lure they recommended was the Lyman 4#147 so I bought one. After trolling it (deep, 100+ feet) in Flathead and repeatedly catching Mack after Mack, (as compared to ANYTHING on my other downrigger) I called them and they shipped me two more! Tonight we caught another, see photo sent of our friend holding one of the fish. NOW... to make the story more interesting... I am an avid Largemouth Bass fisherman also. During the Month of July I used that same size 4 #147 to catch bass here in Western Montana. Using that one lyman lure, I outcaught everyone else who fished with me, night after night. Just for kicks, I'd supercharge the glow in the dark paint with a camera flash and it looked like a tracer being cast out into the dark. I caught numerous Bass between 2 and 4 lbs with this one lure. SO... When I went pike fishing on the river a couple weeks ago... The Lyman Lure was my "Go To" lure for Northerns... And of course, it worked fantastic. Thank you so much for a great product. Gotta love anything that works so well for so many species. As always,
For years I have been pulling Lyman Plugs behind my boat. Whether it’s on my home waters of Kootenay Lake, or on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, they always seem to produce good fish for me. We run the 4” plugs most often, because they can imitate just about any bait fish. I also have a large assortment of 5” and even some 6 “ models when targeting the big ones. Our largest fish taken on a Lyman in Kootenay Lake so far is just over 23 Lbs, and the biggest Salmon we’ve taken off the West Coast on a Lyman is just over 40 Lbs. So, no matter where you fish or what you’re fishing for, I would highly recommend the Lyman plugs.Thanks Lyman for providing such a great product. Look forward to many years of great fishing.
Hello Lyman Staff I had to send you this picture. I went to Pyramid on Thursday and caught the fish of a lifetime. I want to thank Brad Stout again for turning me onto the Lyman's. What a great lure. I have spent countless hours fishing Pyramid and never caught one like this. This was my first trip with the Lyman's and the results were unbelievable . I will be telling all my fishing buddies they need this lure in if they want to catch fish.
Best Regards, Pat McGruder

Here at Mo Fisch Charters I have used Lyman Lures with great success for the past eight years. I use the 4" wooden plugs for hybrid rainbow trout. I troll Lake Koocanusa on the surface for winter rainbows. By biggest rainbow to date is a 19.5lb beauty. That big fish was caught on a silver/black Lyman. Many bull trout have also fallen to the aggressive action of Lyman Lures. I also use Lyman's for lake trout on Flathead Lake here in N.W. Montana. Many 20lb plus lakers have fallen to a Lyman plug trolled in 200ft of water with downriggers. I always recommend Lyman Lures at all my seminars as well on my blogs.

Hi Colin, I was fishing on Kootenay lake last weekend and i caught a nice 12.6 lb., Rainbow and it was on my favorite lyman plug. I also had a nice one on that got away, and i was using a Lyman plug as well. Thanks for providing lots of excitment for me.
