My trick for bed fish

CatchemCaro · 05-01-10, 11:57 AM

It seems as if every one is using bright colored baits to get those big girl to go on the beds, but when she won't hit the big gotty baits here's what I have been doing that's working gret for me. I'll leave her alone for 20 or 30 minutes and then I come back with a small mini jig in black. She will not hesitate to suck it up as she thinks it's a tiny little fish in her nest. She'll show no fear what so ever and it has worked every time for me. It has worked so well that when I see a big girl on the bed the black mini jig is my go to. I have it on 10 pound flor and it's wicked.

Sweet! Sounds pretty good man! I'll have to try it next spawn or on late spawner's!

Sounds like it would be good with a Daiwa Sol casting reel too!

I hope it starts to get warmer up here in MI so they start bedding.

They already are

Darn! I can't fish beds... Just my personal preference... well, until I see that 10 pounder sitting on a bed staring at me.

I like the plausibility of your approach. Thanks!

We're not allowed to bed fish here in Pa. But I fish a private pond and there are some hogs sitting on them now. Thanks for the tip.
