Different Lakes Different Lures

[jusanuthabass]

Is it true that on different lakes the fish respond to certain lures. I have been fishing a lake i get strikes on soft plastics and mostly top water poppers. No matter how many stumps i bump, depth, color, i can not get a strike on a spinnerbait. I am so ready to go to another lake and experiment for myself. I know some of you more experienced anglers know so hook a brotha up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????

p.s. i love this board

i belive certain lakes you can only catch fish on certain baits...theres a lake i fish and i love fishing spinnerbaits one of my main baits but this lake i cannot get a bite from a fish using a spinnerbait. so i have to go with finnesse plastics or topwater. but then i go to another lake all day spinnerbaits, crankbaits and flipping baits. and both lakes have tons of cover for all those techinques.

In my experience all baits ( cranks, plastics, spinnerbaits, topwaters, etc ) work on all lakes, some baits and some presentations perform better in certain lakes under certain circumstances and perform fair or poorly on others under the same circumstances.

Baits are universal, applications can vary depending upon lake make over.
