Eazy Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Over time I seem to have accumulated quite a few of these in my tackle arsenal, but can't say I've given them an honest whirl, however, they do seem that they would be a pretty versatile bait that would be good for just about anything during hardwater or soft, whether jigged, drifted, or trolled.....Just curios as to whether or not any fellow anglers have had good success using these baits?

superdad Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 They used to be the cats meow a number of years ago on Hay Bay, couldn't catch without them, NOW no one uses them. Fish got used to them... David aka Superdad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calender Don Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Dragged bottom with a worm for walleye in Lake Nipissing I like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eazy Posted March 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 It's pretty amazing how fish can get used to baits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallyboss Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I use them whenever I fish muddy waters. Helps the walleyes center in on the jigs. I use a very hard 1-2 feet rip so that I can feel the vibration it in my rod tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radnine Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 It's pretty amazing how fish can get used to baits! I keep wondering how long it will be before Lake Erie smallies get used to Senkos and tube jigs. I hope never, but it would seem to be inevitable. Unless of course, fish never do actually get used to baits, and it is just something that has been propagated by the lure manufacturing industry. I mean, fish have been eating minnows and other fish for ever right? They don't stop eating minnows. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smitter Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 they are killer for walleye and brookies, I've only ever used the in open water though. btw, I don't think can fish really get that used to lures, maybe locally or for a short period of time, but, how long have mepps black fury, red devil spoons, floating rapalas etc. been around for and they still kill.

I know what you mean,and have heard of steelhead getting used to some types of hardware when they're exposed to it in higher pressure situations and such, ie: cleos and what have you.
