Well, Im going to the river this week end.As some of you no, I caught no keepers last time.I think a few other teams didnt do all that great also.So maybe someone could help with a few tips!lures,color,location,bait,line,location!!!!
I caught no keepers either, but hope to change that around on the last night also. We have been finding more and more smallies on the river and starting to get a better picture. Tips - get out there, throw a senko to any rock, try lots of colors, remember we can use bait on the river. Colors - bright, naturals, who knows? locations - near wood, rock, deep water, Let me know when you find em.. Bait - crawlers, senkos, spinners, sucker minnows, top waters.. line - heavy, I use 20 spiderwire, great stuff. Lures - senkos, slip bobbers, lindy rigs, spinners, top waters, jigs, plain hooks.. I bet your sweet potato would work, if you get it in front of a bass. The key on the river is location, location, location.. Look for solid bottom, rocks..
See I am still fishing for a solid pattern too. It will happen.
Good fishing, Mr. Twitch..
Hey Twitch,
Come on up to the river. I'll take you out and we'll see what we can find. I know the river pretty well, just not exactly where all the Smallies are. My number is 715-392-1411. Just bring your rod and stuff. we'' use my boat. Oh ya, bring that Twitch reel I want t try it out.
Roger
thanks for that info,ill try to see what i can find.spyder wire,I tried that once but it was slippin on the reel got any tips to stop the slipping.
Roger, thanks for the invite!Ill give you a call,I always enjoy fishing with some one new!
I have a lot of 20 lb spiderwire, bright yellow and moss green, if you want to spool up a reel or two to try it, just let me know. What you do to stop it from slipping is first put a small piece of electrical tape on it, then wind it on. That works for everyone I know.
Looked like you and Roger had a fun time and scared a lot of bass. I hope you guys leave a few for the rest of us.
