mikemo Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 Little Cleos and J-11 Rapala's are my go to ones in the spring and when I down-rig for them in the summer. I rarely use much else. Blue and silver combination are my preferred ones. When those aren't working a white Rapala, any model, does well too for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjsa Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 Like what EddyK said, if fishing in open water. Anything with flash, spoons like cleos, williams in silver or silver/blue, even mepps spinners, brass, silver, and chartreuse blades. And J-raps in chartreuse also. Don't forget about jigging for them, white tubes, 3-4 inch on a 3/8ths to 1/2 ounce jighead. For some reason lakers just love them, I rarely fish with anything else in the winter, other than a minnow on a set line, and the white tubes outdo the minnows 10-1 easily. No need to even tip them with a minnow usually, although if you are not getting any hits, put one on. Recently worked for me, wasn't getting any hits on a bare tube, but soon as I put a minnow on, got my 2 within 1 hr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookslav Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I've had some pretty good results on Rapalas(floating & deep divers, and rattle raps) In Blue & silver, black & silver, and perch Pattern in spring. And I'd second the cleo's & wabblers for sure.....those would be a staple in my mind I generally don't even try for them in the summer, but if I did....I would probobly keep it the same with the aid of a rigger, or take Tjsa's advice.

muskymatt Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I've had really good luck running these. Sidewinders also have been good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishindevil Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 also you can use canoe spoons,as well as a 4'' inch twistertail,on the treble hook of a williams woobler,another is the williams quicksilver,spoon another is to jig with a peice of sucker meat or hearing from the supermarket....lakers will take all that i mentioned above and more we have also caught them early in the spring trolling mepps #4 black furys about 100ft behind the boat just under the surface about 4ft down....hope these will give you some ideas....good-luck cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
