Super User lmbfisherman Posted March 11, 2013 Super User Posted March 11, 2013 Firetiger coloured cranks work very well around these parts. x2 here. Firetiger works very well at my local rivers. Quote
Super User lmbfisherman Posted March 11, 2013 Super User Posted March 11, 2013 For whatever reason, firetiger is a northern pike magnet on my local waters. Yeah they do attract them up here too. I get my fair share of Smallmouths and Pike in the rivers where I usually throw Firetiger lipless crank. Quote
Super User Ratherbfishing Posted March 11, 2013 Super User Posted March 11, 2013 As others have said, it's an excellent color in stained water and/or cloudy/stormy days. Not so much in clear water though. Quote
airborne_angler Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I hear stories about success with Firetiger colors but I just can't find myself throwing them.Firetiger to me screams Walleye, Muskie, Pike and Perch, none of which we have locally...I know I'm probably missing out... Quote
NWI-Bassin' Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 What brand? I pour my own: The bottom one is salted and painted (spots) and dyed with Spike_It. The top one is dyed but large flakes are used. Would you think about selling some ? Interested.. Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted March 12, 2013 Super User Posted March 12, 2013 Get both. Fire tiger is good in dirty or discolored water. White is good in both clear & off colored waters. Quote
SENKOSAM Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I could do the top one but not the bottom one. I have to order some more Spike It Worm paint to be able to paint the coach dog pattern you normally see on crankbaits. The bottom stick is a laminate using florescent glitter in clear plastic. The top one is just clear plastic with black jumbo glitter, dyed with Spike It but without salt so it can be used just subsurface over the shallow flats I usually fish in April and May. For some reason chain pickerel are the main fish I catch on the fire tiger sticks, but largemouth do bite them along with bubble gum, opaque florescent chartreuse, white and Merthiolate (a super intense orange).

bmlum415 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Pre spawn in muddy water a few days ago was the ticket to me winning a tournament on fire tiger Quote
bwillis Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Not to highjack the thread, but I picked up a couple of Shad Raps in fire tiger UV. Anyone have any experience with these? Quote
ColdSVT Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 x2 here. Firetiger works very well at my local rivers. yep...only the pike and musky never seem to eat for me when I am not fishing a bass tourny. I could target them for week straight and not catch one, but when it is bass toirny time I lose sll my favs to the toothed twins! Quote
