What lure(s) are you going to throw first on Saturday

[FlipR70]

OK, I'm nearly going mad waiting for the opener (which is in 2 days, 10 hrs, 6 min's, and 37 sec's). I absoluted can't wait to throw three lures:

1) Jig -n- Pig

2) 8" lizard t-rigged

3) 5" Stick bait weightless

So what is going in the water first for you guys???

Having trouble concentrating on work,

Ah, this is exactly what I was thinking about last night.

Here's what I'm thinking about rigging:

1. Wacky-rigged Senko

2. Tandem spinnerbait

3. Husky jerk or X-rap

4. Either a soft-plastic jerk or an bucktail spinner

Give me some more ideas!!!

[fishingmike0770]

Wont be albe to throw any of these because i will be out of town but if i could i would throw:

1)1/2 oz super spook jr

2)weightless stick bait, wacky and regular

3)bass assassin 5" shad

[st.crioxfishin]

1)Rat'l trap

2)spinnerbait

3)texas-rigged tube

4)white zoom fluke

All depending on weather, boy I hope it cooroperates(sp?) with us.

Flip, I can't concentrate in school either!

1-spinnerbait

2-senko

3-float worm

[Deitz Dittrich]

#1) Hard Plastic JerkBait.

#2) Soft Plastic Jerkbait

#3) Wacky Rigged Comida.

[Juan Grande]

I can hardly wait. I just hope we get at least one day of nice weather this weekend. I can't stand these gray skies much longer.

1. 5" Senko (Cinnamon Brown)

2. 5" Gulp Sinking Minnow

3. White tube

[O2BFSHN]

It's almost here!

The spinerbait will be good for active fishig no doubt about it.

If there are a few left on the beds, Lizards.

And you just can't go wrong with a senko.

Best of luck

[squeedunk]

It generally doesn't matter what you use on the lake I fish but I will have four rods set up.

1) White Spinnerbait

2) Pre-rigged worm

3) X-rap

4) Shallow Crank (4-6 ft.)

Small lake, lots of active bass this time of year! No need for slow lures.

O2BFSHN-we'll have to compare bass thumbs after the weekend, and no you cannot catch just one and rub its teeth on your thumb like you usually do.

Good luck~Squeedunk

[Ole the Guide]

I have to work this weekend but will be out Monday and Tuesday. Mine will be:

1. floating rapala (deadly this time of year)

2. lizzard w/ very light weighted owner hook

3. senko

4. soft jerkbait

I hope this stuff works!

Good Fishin' and don't forget the net!

[megger8]

Don't you love just sitting with your tackle box/bag and rods and reels and rigging up what you're going to use? Good luck to you. Don't forget about those failproof plastics

[M.T. Bucket]

Tandem spinnerbait, if that doesn't work, Texas-rigged 6" worm. If I need anything else I'll probably cast and retrieve a Mr. Twister.

[cheektowaga]

Not quite out yet, but when I do hit the water it'd probably be:

1. Spinnerbait

2. Shallow Crank

3. T-rigged plastic

Regardless I'll throw until my arm falls off!

[Lunker]

I don't see any topwater on the list, whatta shame! I'll be out this weekend(although not today) from shore. I stay real simple when I'm fishing from shore, so I'll have

1)A spinnerbait

2) 4" senkos

3)A popper

4)Another soft plastic(with bullet weight optional)

5)Jerkbait(maybe x rap)

When I shore fish I stay real simple. I find it's the best way to do it from shore. When I hit the river, I'll substitute those senkos for jigs and twistertails. When those remain your only options, it's much harder to feel overcome with options, and its easy to catch fish. Good fishin to all, don't forget to practice CPR!

[Ralph Wiggum]

Thought I'd bring this one back to the top because I've been trying to figure out what I am going to have rigged up this weekend.

Here's what I have got planned to start with...for now:

Soft jerk bait

Yum dinger--wacky rigged

Spinnerbait

Shallow shad rap or a hard jerk bait, not sure yet

[SluggoMaster]

Storm Subwart,

Jig,

Jig,

Jig,

Jig,

Jig,

Chatterbait (maybe)

[fishinchicks]

I will start with a topwater, mostly because they are a blast when they get hit, but also because I just got some new ones and can't wait to try them out. After that, I will go with T-Rigged plastic something. I can't decide which one yet.

What about the Sluggo?

[Deitz Dittrich]

White tube.. and a soft plastic jerkbait will be my starters.. a spinnerbait might be in the mix as well.

[OnTheWater]

1. tube

2. Sweet beaver

3. sluggo

4. chatterbait

For the last week or so, I've been doing really well with this combo. Especially impressed with the Sweet Beaver; I've been going through them like crazy! The most productive method so far is throwing the tube into a pocket, if I miss the bite I throw the beaver, and whamm! I'd seriously recommend getting a pack or two of the beaver style soft plastic; and just work it slow.

[bgreen82]

1. tube and jig

2. topwater

3. fat rap or shad rap of some kind

4. spinner.

5. maybe something like a 4" power worm. either wacky rigged or on a jig

will probably bring some leeches along as well

[Metroguy99]

1. Slug-Go

2. Dinger rigged weightless

3. jig? whatever is working! just cant wait till that first fish no matter what is on the line.
