NE-KID Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 This week I plan on visiting my local Bass Pro Shops to do some shopping for lures but I do not know what to purchase so far I have the Salty Super Fluke and the Ribbit Frog in watermelon color. We are new to the Georgia fishing lakes not sure what fish bites what so I am asking everyone here. I tried the Super Fluke few times last week and this early morning when I took my father to Lake Blackshear and fished off the dock since we do not own a boat. Thank you for your time. - Jamie Quote
Derek1 Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 I would definitely grab some stick baits if you don’t have any, they work great allot of the time. I use the yum brand 5” allot. they are cheap compared to some of the other brands. I honestly don’t know if there better or worse then other brands but I do know they work. Maybe another type of worm with a tail they also work well. Just a couple of colors will get you started green pumpkin, watermelon/red, and a blackish color will get you on the water and catching fish in most places from what I understand. You can definitely get more colors but those are the three I have the best luck with it may be different we’re you are. I am no expert but those few things are what I started with and I think I’ve done well this summer. Good luck and have fun picking out some stuff, it’s part of the enjoyment for me. Take it easy.

Super User scaleface Posted August 14, 2018 Super User Posted August 14, 2018 It would help if you would describe the type of water ,, cover ,, structure that you plan on fishing and a description of your rod n reels . Quote
Super User Log Catcher Posted August 14, 2018 Super User Posted August 14, 2018 The BPS stick-o baits are a good stick bait and not real expensive. They have them in many colors and several different lengths. Quote
NE-KID Posted August 16, 2018 Author Posted August 16, 2018 Sorry for my late reply. I went to my local Bass Pro Shops this afternoon and spent couple of hours talking to the guys who was working the Fishing area. They gave me ideas on what to try out for bait wise such as the Livingston Lures Primetyme CB 2.0 crankbait, STW S-Crank 1.2 crankbait, KVD Watermelon Ocho's 5" and Gamakatsu 4/0 EWG Offset Worm Hooks and some fishing lakes to try. The guys at Bass Pro Shops were nice and friendly and went out of there way to answer all my questions my father and I asked them. They showed us around the fishing rods, reels, fishing gear, bait and etc. I am happy with my purchase at Bass Pro Shops - Macon, Georgia. 1 Quote
