Joey Battipaglia Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I wanted to know what kind of lures everyone would use at like 730 am at this time of the year... Thank you Quote
Snakehead Whisperer Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Depends on where you are. Here in DC I have been throwing blade baits, dropshot with a 4" cross tail shad or Gulp minnow, and jerkbaits. It's rare that I put down the blade bait, however. Water temps are still in the mid to high 50's, but fish are definitely in a late fall/early winter mood and behaving more as if they normally would in mid November when the water temps are usually in the 40's. They are also holding in the typical winter locations. Quote
Jtrout Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Im also in the md area throw a gold or a silver lipless crankbait been doing well with it rip it thru the weeds and let it drop and repeat. 1 Quote
Super User bigbill Posted November 14, 2015 Super User Posted November 14, 2015 Springtime baits and fall baits are pretty much the same as the rule of thumb goes. The only time the baits change is in the summertime. Jigs work all year. Hint, the rules are meant to be broken 2 Quote
DerekFisherofMenJones Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Which is the best bait's to use in creeks, river's and pond's? I am a located in Oklahoma and a greenhorn angler, may the wind be at your back and luck be with you. Quote
BaitMonkey1984 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I would start off with lipless crank and if that doesn't work get deeper and slower presentations until you get bit. 1 Quote
Super User bigbill Posted November 14, 2015 Super User Posted November 14, 2015 Creeks, rivers, crawfish cranks, panther Martin spinflys, inline spinners, larger rivers shallow cranks, spinnerbaits. Ponds everything. Topwater poppers, spooks, prop baits, shallow cranks, spinnerbaits, inlines, jigs, c-rigs, split shot rig worms. Quote
Mainebass1984 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 During specific times of the year certain lures produce much better than others. I have been fishing all over northern New England the past several weeks. In the three states I fished the same pattern emerged. Targeting deeper water fish in 15-35 feet with a blade bait. If you were fishing shallow than 15 ft you would struggle. Fish were most definitely in there winter locations and patterns. It is difficult to beat a blade bait once the water temperature drops below 50. Jigs do work but I don't get nearly as many bites as I do with a blade bait. 4 Quote

Super User bigbill Posted November 14, 2015 Super User Posted November 14, 2015 In streams with exposed rocks I throw spinners on the rocks and plop them into the pools. Quote
thirtysixit Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Im also in the md area throw a gold or a silver lipless crankbait been doing well with it rip it thru the weeds and let it drop and repeat. I'm in central VA, I've been doing really well with a ratl-trap also. Water temps are still in the upper 50's most days. Quote

Mainebass1984 Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 Blade bait = chatterbait? I would refer to a chatterbait as a bladed jig. Examples of a blade bait would be a heddon sonar, silver buddy, lucky craft ILV 50, vibe, or a binsky vibrating blade. 1 Quote

bassguytom Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 I'm using a Keitech swimbait with an 1/8 oz. weighted belly hook and doing well. Fishing it all kinds of ways from as fast as I can to moving it slowly along the bottom and stopping it. Quote
Super User Catt Posted November 15, 2015 Super User Posted November 15, 2015 yall got it made cold down there water temp wise is what 60 haha Wrong! 72-74° Quote
WPCfishing Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 I don't get out on the water that early this time of year. My first cast is usually at 10:30-11:00. I like 1-6 feet of water with rocky bottoms. I'll fish til 3:30-4:00..Generally I throw square bills or lipless cranks Then jigs after I get bit. I like slow steady retrieves to start. I'll make adjustments accordingly. If I can find mat cover I'll pitch to it with a 3/8-1/2oz punch jig and drop it on the open side ect.. 1 Quote
Hurricane Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 We were catching them off of rooster tails here in Buffalo at some ponds in the area..Blue and black booyah jig with a green pumpkin super chunk caught me the biggest fish... Quote
