Moneymurphy Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 When fishing for flatheads and channels how long do you guys stay in one spot? Do you move often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakeb Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I think it depends, if it is a proven spot that you have good confidence in getting fish out of, ill sit there for a couple hours it normally pays off.If you pull up to a new spot that you have not fished or have not caught fish at, give it 15-20 minutes but fish it a little bit differently each time you try it, IE a different side little deeper, shallower, explore your spots, that is how you often times find a spot on a spot.

MinnesnowtaWild Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I like to sit on spots a lot longer than most people. Some guys spend 10 minutes on a spot and then move, some guys sit on the same spot all night. It's all personal preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 ITS ALL FEEL I GUESS FOR ME BUT I USSALLY SIT IN ONE SPOT FOR 30-45 MIN UNLESS I GET A BITE THEN I START THE 30 MIN ALL OVER AGAIN,darn caps any ways this situation can depend on water level and time of day as well during the day I will shorten my time in search of flatties basically looking for active fish.

pureinsanity Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I like to sit in one spot most of the night when I have access to a boat. From shore I probably re cast every 30 minutes or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pureinsanity Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 pureinsanity are you saying until the cows come home And I thought you were crazy for telling me were to cast! It was like instant bite almost! Glad we stuck that one out in that spot as long as we did! GOOD TIMES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruthWalleyes Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Depends on if i fall asleep or not I like to give a good 'fishy' spot an hour, with two or three changes in bait location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
