CYP Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 I hate it, sticks to everything, seems to be coating the bottom everywhere around me right now. Just a rant. 1 Quote
jignfule Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Best stuff I've ever found for bike tires though. 1 Quote
AQUA VELVA Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 We get a lot of that here in MI also. I call it lake snot. Seems to be up in the shallows mostly. 1 Quote
Basseditor Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I hate the stuff too. It's in every lake around me. Then there's the black stuff too. Is it the green slot decaying or something related? Quote
5 Dollar Fishing Game Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Here in NC the snot grass (as we call it) is coming out now. Pain in the you know what. :-/ 3 Quote
Super User Grizzn N Bassin Posted April 23, 2014 Super User Posted April 23, 2014 oh yeah that stuff in nasty! Quote
CYP Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Lake snot, snot grass both perfect descriptions 1 Quote
JeziHogg Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 I hate those white fluffs that float on top of the water and get stuck in your guides and spool. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted April 23, 2014 Global Moderator Posted April 23, 2014 Whenever that stuff gets bad I know it's time to break out the floating worms and wacky rigged stickbaits It isn't as bad as cottonwood seed though, at least it doesn't clog up your guides and stick to your line so you have to pick it off every cast. 1 Quote
5 Dollar Fishing Game Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 How I roll with that mess step by step: 1.) peel off snot grass from lure 2.) sling it off fingers like real snot into the water 3) wipe excess on pants 4) have wife ask "what's on your pants?!" 5) exclaim "lake snot" 6) hear her say "gross! Go take a shower!" 7) :-) 3 Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted April 23, 2014 Super User Posted April 23, 2014 I think it ranks a close second to cotton wood fluff as one of the worst things in fishing! Quote
livetofish28 Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 That stuff is starting to get going here it is the worst when fishing any bottom contact presentation. UGH i HATE IT!!!!! Tight Lines Andrew Quote
bartdude186 Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 I take it as the lakes way of telling me the fish are biting weightless plastics lol. 3 Quote
Super User bigbill Posted April 24, 2014 Super User Posted April 24, 2014 The old timers did tell me after the post spawn to move to river bass fishing till the fall bite. Quote
CDobber Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Whenever that stuff gets bad I know it's time to break out the floating worms and wacky rigged stickbaits It isn't as bad as cottonwood seed though, at least it doesn't clog up your guides and stick to your line so you have to pick it off every cast. That would be me from today at my local quarry.....on both accounts....the pre-rigged bass stopper (worm) was catching well today in its surface spiral. Outperformed anything else I tried. Quote
sparky241 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Its been here for a few weeks now, its a pain for sure Quote
skeeter1980 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 It gets so bad on our ponds,you can almost walk on top of it. Quote
Kevin Beachy Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 In one pond around here, it was terribly bad so the owner put copper sulfate mix that killed it then brought a motor boat over and went circle around the pond and washed all the moss away. Quote
HeavyFisher Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Meh green slime means time to whip out the frogs baby 2 Quote

Hyrule Bass Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 my favorite pond gets it bad. i found the best way to fish it is definately with weightless plastics and top water frogs. Quote
Super User *Hootie Posted June 6, 2014 Super User Posted June 6, 2014 Worse than cottonwood fluff? That's the stuff I hate. Hootie Quote
