Quillback Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Anybody fish the Magnum Warts? If so, any success? I never hear anyone mentioning them in all the Wiggle Wart discussions.
dtrs5kprs Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Have never done terribly well with them. Have caught a few, usually in dirty water with the brighter colors. Can't seem to hit them on the craw colors. Does not make a lot of sense b/c I can catch them on a craw or rootbeer FF shad, or a craw DD14 at times. One less thing you need to order I guess...
rps Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 They are an excellent trolled walleye bait for the times I need to hit 25 to 30 feet deep.
balsabee Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I've caught several on it but I use 12-15lb big game instead of 10lb. I really prefer the wee wart on 6lb test and a spinning rod. When they are really on the wart bite I'll have all three tied on.
abkeenan Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Yes I throw them. With the deeper water in the dam area sometimes you need something to hit a little deeper and I can hit about 5 feet or so deeper on the mag wart than the standard wart. Not really sure why more guys don't throw the mag size warts.
dtrs5kprs Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Wasn't it reported that Palaniuk threw the magnum at Grand last winter during the Classic?
kjackson Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I've had good luck on Mag Warts in the Potholes Reservoir in Washington but have yet to fish them much here. It sounds like I may have to dig a few out and add to the collection.
Members tv tom Posted February 5, 2014 Members Posted February 5, 2014 I USED THEM ALOT IN SPRING IN KANSAS LAKES BEFORE MOVING HERE. THEY WERE PARTICULARLY GOOD IN MUDDY WATER . I GOT MORE WALLEYE THAN ANYTHING ESPECIALLY ON CHARTREUSE
Quillback Posted February 5, 2014 Author Posted February 5, 2014 Hey TV Tom - Are you the Tom in the Ranger I run into up the White river channel? If so, welcome!
Sore Thumbs Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I have one in phantom brown I would be willing to trade for a regular wiggle wart. It is Pre-Rapala.
