Fishing after heavy rain/ thunder storm on natural northern lake

[Pogues2300]

Sorry if this topic has ever been discussed, but I’m just curious now days how people start the day after the above mentioned conditions. Thanks

If the water has muddied up I would use a brighter colored lure. I’d also look a little shallower than previously fished.

^ If you're using spinnerbaits - go with Colorado blades for the 'thump' as well.

The Local brown bass population thrives in the routinely clear water.

So if the rain muddies it up a ton,

I'm looking for cleanest water I can find.

If there isn't any 'clean water, I'm fishing close to the bottom & tight to 'cover'.

Rattle & bight colors is SOP.

If it's not too bad, maybe just a little 'color', I'm looking shallow.

Sometimes both pay off . . .
