What lures should I throw?

[Dan N]

I’d go with spinner bait and T-rig rage bug or bandito bug. I don’t even consider top water unless super thick weeds.

First thing I'd want to know: are you boating or bank walking?

I’d then switch to a zoom trick wormy-rigged.

Jerkbait. Hard and soft. Not pressured it would be money   you could weigh a floating one where ever you want and if you have some cover rig it weedlese. And last but not least a frog.

What is the primary forage?  How stained?  How muddy?

When in doubt throw a trickworm.   I usually do best on Junebug color.

Jig for bigger fish

Single colorado blade spinnerbait

Creature bait

Suspending jerkbait if the water is clear

Bringing the boat and kayak just in case the boat can't launch! Headed there now.

I literally have almost everything that has been suggested in this thread lol

probably gonna start off with some topwater and if I'm able to put that down, than it will be a jig and spinner bait combo sorta deal

Sweet. That increases your chances of success drastically. 

 

Pics or it didn't happen.....

Looking forward to the report as well

Ended up being a pretty good day! Had to adapt as they weren't hitting anything topwater or any type of sub surface moving bait. Caught the best one which came in at 4-1/4lbs on a black and blue 3/8 oz jig with rage craw trailer. Average fish size was 3# plus which was excellent. My favorite part though was when my buddy caught a 1.91 lb, 15-3/8" black crappie......on a 3/8 oz black and blue jig with a speed chunk! I was ecstatic! While the jig landed the biggest fish, a june bug speed worm on a shakeyhead was the real deal and caught the most fish. a day i'll surely never forget.

 

Thanks a bunch again everyone for all of your suggestions!

If water temps are in the mid to upper 50's it would be a jerkbait, worked very slowly.
