dtrs5kprs Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 I've got a box of spinnerbaits with dust on them. I quit fishing spinnerbaits when the good swimbaits came along & the KVD 1.5 Just a thought. Mine stay dry most of the year too, but 25mph wind and shallow fish would get them out of the corner. They throw so much better than a wart.
Guest Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 The wind ALWAYS blows in Okla, no matter if its a cold front bluebird day. I've never had much luck in the Ozarks with spinnerbaits, like I have in Big River systems & flatland impoundments. But, you're right it takes less effort.
Jerry Rapp Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 get some 1/2 ounce spinnerbaits with a gold willow leafs. #5 blades for both. One gold, one silver. It doesn't matter if gold is front or back. Just make sure they are not thin blades. When you want to catch a kicker, or two or three, when you are in spinnerbait water they will definitely work.
Members CadeWompus Posted March 25, 2015 Members Posted March 25, 2015 Only Rock Crawler I own is Spring Craw...evidently it is less popular as it was the only one in stock when I ordered. Wondering if this would be an effective Table Rock color. I expect it would prob be a dirtier water color. Spro could do a better job when it comes to craw colors across their product lines. They could add the Rock Crawler colors to the Fat Papa and Little John lineup. Take the Olive Craw and Bluegill (which is sort of craw like) and put them into the Rock Crawler lineup. Wouldn't hurt to add some of the best Wart colors to the Rock Crawler, Mizz Craw, Brown craw and V-38, Tim Hughes Ghost colors.
Quillback Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 I would not be afraid to throw that Spring Craw in the stained water we're seeing in parts of Table Rock right now. CadeWompus 1
Champ188 Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 All of you guys please continue to use your spinnerbaits as dust collectors.They are outdated lures with little appeal for today's sophisticated bass. Muddy Water, Ham and balsabee 3
Ham Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Lol, I doubt KVD quit throwing SB's when SK started making squarebills. Lot's of ways to skin a cat. Not all the fish are doing the same thing at any given time. I try to find a way to catch em that gives me a chance to catch a bunch AND is a way I enjoy fishing. Throwing an A rig is NOT a way I enjoy fishing, but I have done so and will do so again. Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish
Members CadeWompus Posted March 25, 2015 Members Posted March 25, 2015 Anyone heard of fish still being caught on the Arig? I am fishing a club tournament Sat/Sun and if they will bite it still, I guess I better have one rigged up. I would much rather throw a grub. I have heard that the grub bite has been good, but it doesn't make sense to me why they would bite a grub and not an Arig unless the rig is just not subtle enough. But if that is the case, why do they bite the Arig in the dead of Winter? Sometimes I wonder if I overthink stuff lol
balsabee Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 All of you guys please continue to use your spinnerbaits as dust collectors.They are outdated lures with little appeal for today's sophisticated bass. No kidding!! I find the wart bite to be outstanding for about 3 weeks when the water temp is around 48* - 52*. When the water temps rise above 52* for an extended period of time I think the wart/crawdad bite tends to slow considerably and the fish start back on a shad diet almost exclusively. Champ188 1
