Went fishing today

[randerson52]

went out again today to the same place, this time with ultralight rapalas and strike kings, and rooster tails. Yet again no avail. Havent tried soft plastics yet. do you think they are bedding yet in Jersey?

What it the water temp? This time of the year that is the critical factor.

[randerson52]

reb,
ill say upper 30s low 40s maybe mid 40s somewhere in that range

[Rich]

In that case I would recommend 2 baits: A jig-n-pig slow around cover and a suspending jerkbait like a Smithwick rogue or an X Rap fished extremely slow.

i went out today to, but i'll post it on the ''non-fishing related'' thread cause it was saltwater fishing. 8)

At least you got out and got to go.

a bad day fishing is still better than a good day at work.

Powerbass,

Have you tried the H & H double spin spinnerbait, use it slow.

Powerbass, You are probably have staging fish to spawn,Use tubes and kalin grubs on a jig head.super flukes and senkos if you find a shallow flat near deep water. I hope this helps.P N J

BFG- no i havent tried the H & H spinnerbait, i dont even know where to find one around here. Can you post a picture showing the spinnerbait?

PNJ- The pond is around 12-14 ft deep in middle, The banks on the one side are supper shallow like 3in -3ft deep in some spots, but the other side has a bretty deep drop off, about3-6 ft deep. Water Clarity is murky. Also, what color tubes, i have blue black speckle, white black speckle, and black red speckle and pumpkinseed. What colors would through, also i could go out and buy red ones real cheap.

[profishermenkid16]

An H&H spinnerbait is a small spinnerbait about the size of a Johnson beetle spin lure.Thanks to BFG I now have some ,but never seen them before, they have got ot a killer crappie bait in the springtime. Don't go out and buy any more baits ,the ones you have will work fine.I like pumpkin color but they all will work.You are right though, red does catch fish in the spring time but so does all of the other colors. ;D P N J

[randerson52]

what is the cost of the lure? Right now im a little tight on cash, saving up for a new fenwick

[profishermenkid16]
