  1. This post is a result of my indecision that lead to stressful overthinking. When I ask the following question, consider these factors: I fish one of the shallow finger lakes with lots of vegetation mainly eurasian milfoil, the best places to flip are in the milfoil and under boat docks, the water is ultra clear in the morning and throughout the day progressively gets greener (a light stain caused by gloeotrichia rising from bottom), flipping baits that I’ve used and had moderate success with: D-Bomb, Baby D-Bomb, Pit Boss, Bronco Bug, Sweet Beaver. I like one that has little to no action and glides like a traditional beaver, as well as one that has some more action to it but has less action than a craw style bait. The question: not including craws and tubes; if you could only choose 2 different beaver style baits each in 3 different colors to cover all the conditions listed above, what would you choose? And why?
  2. When chasing LMB in large weedy natural lakes with tons of structure across all depth zones, are there any 'old reliable' rules of thumb that can help differentiate good breaklines (depth) from excellent breaklines from incredible breaklines? I've wondered about correlating water clarity to depth (perhaps adding some consideration of weather?) or maybe a specific size of drop from/to certain depths but haven't come up with anything good enough to qualify as a ROT. Any suggestions? Rick
  3. Hello All, I am going back to one of our local lakes here in Spokane, WA. Newman to be exact. Apparently the state did a mil-foil treatment and the water is the dirtiest I have ever seen it. I would guess less than a foot of visibility. The lake is pretty shallow with a lot of elephant ear pads and obviously mil-foil around most of the lake. The lake has a lot of docks and there are a couple nice, steep banks that are rocky. The water temp is in the low 70s. I guess my question is, where should the majority of fish be located? I am pretty new to bass fishing as well, so any insight will help. I do have a boat if that counts for anything...
  4. I have heard a lot about "bass will strike at something they think is food, even if they have never seen it before" To what extent is this true in northern, smaller, inland lakes? If generations of bass for thousands of years have been seeing sunfish and dark crawfish as forage... will they still find a white pattern attractive? Especially in clear water where natural colors seem key. Am I disadvantaged with just using bluegill and crawfish patterns?
