fishinphyl Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Hey Rick - does a 4" perch count? Now is this best picture or biggest fish? ------------------Phyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 Dano2/ The Stick Minnows are not numbered like a Rapala. The Stick Minnow comes in a standard 5" size. The Stick Minnow is different from the Ghost Shad and Ghost Minnow. The Ghost Shad is more of a Bass bait becasue of its round profile. The Ghost Minnow is similar to a Rapala Shad Rap. I like to use the Stick Minnow with 8/12 Fusion superline. The 8# diameter gets the bait down 6-8 feet with 60-70 feet of line out. I use the Stick Minnow over small rubble and shallow gravel. Most stick type baits have a tendency to get hung up over big chunk rock because the way the bait runs with the hooks running straight with the bait. I then like to run the Ghost Minnow over bigger chunk rock and boulders in 10 feet of water or more. The way these baits run with the lip keeping the bait head down and the hooks in an upward position make it less likely to get snagged up. I run the Clown Pattern Stick Minnow and the Golden Shiner Pattern for the Ghost Minnow. I can get the Ghost Minnow to run 9-11 feet with 8/12 Fusion with 75-85 feet of line. As with any crankbait, speed does not effect the depth. The pattern on these baits are excellent.
