What is the best bait for landlocked salmon?

Chef's answer
For landlocked salmon, troll crankbaits, spoons or streamer flies near the surface after ice-out. Use alewife herring and golden shiners. When drifting live bait from a boat, use a #4 or #6 hook approximately 2 feet below a barrel swivel, with enough weight to bring the bait down to the desired depths..
