Storm Kickin Minnow, how and where to fish it.

[Brian4618]

I just bought a storm kickin minnow in the pearl color, I am just starting to fish swimbaits and this one had good reviews on BPS and it was cheap so I went and got it. Im not sure where to fish this at though, and is it just cast and steady retrieve or do you add some action to it? Thanks.

they're pretty good little baits, but i hope you bought a few, they tear up terribly easy.

i had (brief) success with just a steady, slow retrieve. i caught one bass quickly this way, and then a few casts later i hooked a big *** snapping turtle that completely destroyed the bait.

i've been meaning to pick some more up, but i think i might just stick with hardbaits.

For $3 or less in my opinion they are an awesome lure.

I fished these early in the year when the water temps were in the 30-40 degree range.

The fish would swallow these baits.

I need to buy more since I lost the three I had.

I would suggest a continues retrieve.

Slow medium or fast now that depends on the whether, water temps and depth of the water you you are fishing.
