monstermoose78 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 The Mino has become my favorite plastic and has been putting up huge numbers of fish for me. I will try and get some more pictures today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeG3Boat Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Looking good! How shallow you fishing? The vexilar looks like you are only in a few feet of water? Is that true? Let us newbies know. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCampbell1582814062 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Im going to get me some of those. Do they work for Carp too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstermoose78 Posted January 3, 2015 Author Share Posted January 3, 2015 Well Jeremy, Carp on not on my list of fish to catch this winter, but I am sure if you found a school of them you could get one to suck one up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naturboy Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Who makes those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garett Svir1582813971 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Great job and yes they are an awesome bait for sure! I am excited to try them on rainbow trout this weekend. Natureboy they are made by Maki Plastics and sold by Clam Outdoors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstermoose78 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Well the white with red flakes mino is still putting up fish for me. I tried other colors and they did not produce as well, but it might just be the lake or the day. I bought 2 more rods just for using the mino so that way I can rig up different colors and going to try one of the drop jig xl out. I am going to try a lighter jig to allow the gills to suck it in easier. I will be out quest for trophy gills with the mino as my number one bait this Saturday.

monstermoose78 Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 I found using a lighter jig helped land more gills. I believe it allowed them to suck it in easier. I used a 1/64 oz jig with Maki Mino in white and red flakes. I did miss some fish with smaller jig and wish they made it with a little bigger hook. I believe they were crappies that were missed more often than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
