I'll be vacationing next week in Southern Maine and the forecast actually looks decent. I gave up waited for the run-off to stop its been steady every other day or so now for so long the water levels are up and temps down. Acts like spring fishing instead of dogdays. Hope you do well and catch some good ones, never seen a summer like this. Drought last year and rain-outs this year......... 1 Quote
Super User Spankey Posted July 29, 2021 Super User Posted July 29, 2021 “M” nice bass on that spy bait. I’m good for a couple of Bass a year on them. Those sunfish and bluegill are common to the lake I fish here. I’m not gonna get on that issue that color means everything or color means nothing. I could never win the argument either way. Wish I could pull some baits and take a pic (at work) but like y’all I fish natural Shad patterns, craw patterns, chartreuses, purples and blues. I’m referring to some of my crankbaits. They all have a resemblance to something. I don’t use those real image, live image baits. I can’t do anything with them. But many of my patterns can be seen in your forage fish. As well as gizzard Shad and herring patterns. We get those light color bluegill here with purple pink thing going on with a lighter off silver/white body, a cb close to that works great. Many out there. The original Rapala bluegill (not live image) is a ticket here in the river or lake. Quote
Skunkmaster-k Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Orange blade baits are a killer as well. Quote
Super User Team9nine Posted July 29, 2021 Super User Posted July 29, 2021 Oh yeah, orange baits 2 Quote

I used to cull topwater or super-shallow lures that had orange anywhere near the belly. But that was in the river, too. Now I'm fishing an impoundment. Might make a difference. Might not. jj It was all orange. No other colors. The guy made it, sent it to me, started fishing it and they loved it. One of a kind. 1 Quote
