danderson05 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Going to go fishing tomorrow around 8am at this river. I'll be fishing from the shore. What would you throw out and any tips? I went there today for a little and I didn't catch anything. I used this white and red Colorado blade spinnerbait, this green zoom lizard, and watermelon red speckle finesse worm Texas rigged. I did get snagged under water 4 times and lost my bait each time. I was thinking maybe use this red centipede texas rigged or this creme worm and texas rig that?So any tips or suggestions will be appreciated! Thank you! Quote

Brandon K. Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Bottom composition= rocks, mud, weeds, leaf litter, stuff like that. When I'm fishing from shore on the river a Pearl colored Fluke texas rigged is hard to beat. You can keep it high in the water column so you don't get snagged. But if you do let it sink down it will come through stuff pretty easy. Quote
danderson05 Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 Oh okay. A LOT of rocks and logs on the bottom! Quote
