Stump bumper Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I saw the new 10 plus or whatever the name is, Rouge at HL&S. Has anyone tried it? Colors look great, thought about picking up a couple but already have some deep LC jerk baits I never throw, haven't had much look with deep diving jerk baits. Those colors really hooked me, someone tell me if they are hooking fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beaverfan Posted March 19, 2013 Members Share Posted March 19, 2013 I bought some at the classic and at HLS. Haven't thrown them yet, but plan to when I get out this week. I have been catching lots of good fish on deep divers this year. I started throwing DD's simply because my partner was throwing a shallow diver. Just something different and it worked.

Stump bumper Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 Please share results, glad to see one other person here that has the same taste in Jerk baits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beaverfan Posted March 20, 2013 Members Share Posted March 20, 2013 OK, threw the new rogue today at the Beav and caught 2 Kentuckies, 1 walleye and 2 LMB's. It casts like a rogue (not very good in the wind). It was going deeper than a regular rogue, but I wasn't getting it to 10'. IMO it may be a little to big for the beav and the size of the shad right now. With the weather this week I should get to experiment with it a couple more times. Right now, it will not replace my current favorite JB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stump bumper Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 If those were all keepers that was not bad at all, what color were you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beaverfan Posted March 20, 2013 Members Share Posted March 20, 2013 The bone shiner color with gold glitter, not sure of the exact name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stump bumper Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 One more question;Do you throw jerk baits on baitcasters or spinning reels? I always use spinning reels myself especially with rouges because they are so light and I just work jerk baits slower and can jerk them better with a spinning reel.

Members beaverfan Posted March 28, 2013 Members Share Posted March 28, 2013 Baitcaster, I need to work on the spinning rod. It's a confidence thing, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stump bumper Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 It is just what you started on, baitcasters are better reels overall, but I used spinning reels for years before moving up so when it comes to light lures and working something slow it is where my confidence lies, then I am very heavy on brakes with my baitcasters so if it is under 1/2 oz I pick up a spinning reel.
