ole matty Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Let just say all colors work no matter what. They just have time and place period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HugoBox Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Nice work Bret! I'd take a 49 even if it ate puke colored lure!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUCKJ Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 My last 9 fish boated (and 3 lost) have eaten cowgirls during the daylight hours. (7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.) They are not just night baits. Although they work well after dark to. Thats all im tossing cuz thats what they are eating.Duck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no_bod Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 How effective are pink cowgirls after dark? I hear a lot about black/silver being the go-to lure. But, can pink be just as effective? Or any other color for that matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel9921 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Pink is deadly at night as it is deadly during day... to me its a 24-hours color... like black... some people call it the "new black"... Basically, at nighttime, the thumps is what draws the fishes in... slower you reel them in, more THUMPS it'll produce... which is why many recommends slow-rolling those at night...Color do play a role in profiling the lure in the water at night... which is why Pink/Pink works so good... it gives out a profile like black/black or black/nickel would...

TrophyEyes Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I will be throwing a Pink cowgirl on Sunday, that is for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblueM Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 "that's all I'm tossing because that's all they are eating"boy I sure see a lot of that positive feedback loop in musky fishing, even more so than in any other kind of fishing. Makes me wonder how much of a factor a bait is, more so than using any given bait at the right time/place. If you throw one lure all day every day you're bound to catch something...

JRedig Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I think DCG's are more about noise than color, day or night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50inchpig Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I've also caught fish on a normal retreive with dubba 10s at night. The slow slow rolling might be more lake specific, maybe a response by some regulars to pressure on certain waters. Maybe it doesn't even matter, but you're not SOL on a normal retrieve.

lucy1205 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 well considering i have some minnow baits ranging from 35 to 70 dollers a pop id say im far from a charity case. That 70 doller minnow bait has caught 4 muskies over 50 inches so it was worth it but id never pay it again, actually i still kind of feel ripped off!! as for the bottle I have been clean for two years but after seeing the cowgirl fetish i just might have to jump full bore off the wagon into somthin real strong! I just consider myself a being with a mind not a mindless follower like one of them lethargic muskies after following its 1054 cowgirl this month. Im not sayin them things dont catch fish but i mean come on, If u cant see the propaganda behind them, well maybe i just shouldent even waste my time tryin to get through to u. Thats all boats are throwin these days it puts the spinnerbait for bass ta shame by like a thousaned ta one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUSKY18 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Lucy..........your rants, while semi entertaining, are way off base. Yes, the Cowgirl or double ten baits are a phase of muskie fishing right now, but that is because they flat out produce fish and with that being said, people are going to use them. Think about the weekend muskie angler that doesn't fish as hard a some of us, what do you think they are going to be throwing? The lure that gives them the best chance of catching fish. Right now, that is the Double Tens. They are not my favorite bucktail, but you bet your hinny that I do throw them, why..........CAUSE THEY WORK!!!!What's next for you? Are you going to start a campaign against Suicks because they work and everyone who fishes Muskie has them? Heck I own almost 25 of them, come rip on me for that! Muskie fishing isn't about how much money you make or have, what kind of boat you drive, what rod and reel you use. It is much more than that. Boats, money, etc don't catch the fish, the person catches the fish, plain and simple. It seems that most of your posts are of the negative variety. What is your goal from this board, to come in and start as much controversy as possible with the members? If so, do us a favor and post elsewhere.

Esox_Magnum Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 While I don't own a suick ( and no plans to buy any) I have caved to the DCG's. Not my favorite bait to throw but they have caught me my biggest fish ever and had my first 50" hooked on one. I'll take a Wades over suicks anyday but if I'm throwing bucktails you can bet it will be a Cowgirl, DC-10 or Dominatrix. In last weekends local tourney there was 28 muskies caught 25 on double 10's, I'm sure part of the reason was 90% of the 70+ guys were throwing them, other reason is they flat out catch fish for most people. Of the 13 fish we had hooked or followed in the last 4 days though only the 50"+ I lost was on blades rest came on some variety of Wades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10,000 Casts Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I am heading out in 5 mins and just for you Lucy, the only bait that I am going to throw in a PINK PINK and EXTRA PINK Double Cowgirl. You call it propaganda, but all you are doing is adding fuel to the fire by talking about them. Their propaganda + Your Propaganda = The best Muskie bait of all time!

JBLAIR08 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 went out on Sunday and the cowgirl proved itself a good lure...i was throwing the Jr DCG in the green and black color and had 5 follows....one in the low 40's two in the mid 40's...and one around 50-52 (deff. shoulda landed at least one but im a rookie and messed up @ the boat)....the fifth boiled up behind it about 20 ft from the boat so we didnt get a good look at her....my friend i was out on the lake with was throwing the Bull Dawg, Showgirl, and a Mepps bucktail and only had one follow in the low 40's class and had one on the mepps that shook the hook...The DCG clearly caught the fishes eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
