I was out fishing the other day and was wondering if anyone had another way to fish this situation. The water temp was 50 degrees and it was partly cloudy. I caught fish on lay downs and beaver dams however, I was seeing flashes of those lunker bass going after all of the shad that were 1 foot above a weedy flat. My initial instinct is a spinnerbait to imitate the prey. Are there any other lures to use for this? I know my Rapala would get hung up in the weeds unless it was a very shallow diver. Any suggestions?
I've been using a weightless Golden Shiner Fluke and having some success with the Smallmouth on the river. Same situation, jerking it over the weed beds.
i would have tried a topwater. anytime fish are eating schooled up bait, topwater will work.
Yep. And so would a fluke, twitch twitch and let it die.
So would a Mann's 1-.
Stick bait, approp. color, and length to match the hatch, and then fish it like a fluke.
