Actually Phil,
I was going to do both..while I'm waiting on a bite..activate ole Horny Toad, or Black Backed Rapala or Trick Worm..just a little bit..while I'm waiting..[8D]

The silver with black back works real well for me, and the silver with blue back works really good for my relatives. I picked up a blue back but haventtried it yet, but the water ithas beenused in with great success is very similarto the water you have shown in previous photographs. However i have never used the big F12, mine are the f7 and f9 if i remember correctly. Do you use the F12, or does that just happen to be the label on the minnow photograph?

How do you fish yours C7? I usually twitch mine like a wounded minnow while doing a slow retrieve. Sometimes its hot, sometimes its not, hehe.

No sir ..that was a pick from Ebay..
I twitch them or reel in easy..twitching
seems to generate more strikes..The lure
to the far right is HOT..but fish don't hook
up up very easy..I've caught the most on
the Heddon Torpedo BUT this place looks l
ke a Horny Toad spot or Rapala if ya ask
me..[8D]I was just thinking..a trailor hook may
work for the lure to the right;I've had over 20
hits with no hook ups[&o]..I found the lure but
think it sells for 20.00

Here are my lures..

RE: Fishing etiquette question
 

I don't have any Heddon Torpedos, I will have to try them out. Any recommendations?

RE: Fishing etiquette question
 

I wonder if a trailer hook would affect the lures swimming action? Looks like a fairly realistic soft plastic, but 20 bucks....SHEESH!

RE: Fishing etiquette question
 

Honestly Gangly,
If your not even getting a hit on all the other stuff..I seriously doubt if anything would work..Something isn't right...Horny Toad should get at least one hit:eek:per month..
Something sure is fishy around there.[8D]

RE: Fishing etiquette question
 

your right, something isnt right. Its just that this lake is less than 2 minutes from my house whereas the other lakes are 20-30 minutes from the house. I think im just wishing that there are some fish in there but I'm starting to think its a wish wasted. Ive gotten one or two mure lures to try out, but if they dont produce, im washing my hands of this lake and sticking to the ones that I enjoy fishing. afterall, if its not enjoyable for you, then its not the right hobby for you.

RE: Fishing etiquette question
 

Hey , fishing like you are talking about is not fun..I'd do some exploring and find a better spot..
Sorry your having a hard time.
If your ever in Florida..I'll hook ya up.;)
