Whats working this spring?
« on: May 10, 2007, 08:06 PM »
Seems like the trout threads have been weak  this spring so I figure I throw a question to all. What have you been having success with this spring for trout (browns, brookies, bows. I'll start by saying that the following three items have been working well in streams:

Dead drifting a trout worm with a split shot about 12 inchs above it.
Pin Minnows, all colors
Panther Martins, gold flasher with black bead

Alright, who is next :P

All of the above, and while fly fishing I have had good luck on san juan worms, pheasant tail nymphs, and buggers.

Is a toronto wobbler the same as a lake clear wobbler ???

No not quite , To wobblers are thicker casting spoons and aren't quite as round.

salted minnows, yellow/silver and black/gold panther martins, yellow/silver rooster tails in streams, small little cleos in small ponds, bigger little cleos and stickbaits (green and silver) on "the big lake"

I'm gonna have to see if I can find some of those Toronto wobblers, I like the looks of them.  ;D
Fishing isn't a matter of life or death-It's MUCH more important.

I've had the best luck using brown trout colored f-5 or f-7 rapala for browns on the west canada this year. silver pheobes and yellow/red panther martins w/ silver blades have worked at times too.

Buy a flyrod. You will catch more trout.

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it.

In the hands of a skilled user, flies catch more fish. It's just that simple!

Is that post offensive to you? I would gear fish if it was more effective. You can't argue with me. Flies catch more fish. The question was "what's working" FLIES ARE WORKING!

What are you doing man, following me around and trying to pick fights? Just chill out dude.

pgkris....you can't lie to me!
I fly fish...avidly.
I lure fish...avidly.
I bait fish...avidly.
I know what catches bigger and more trout. I'm not saying you can't catch alot of fish on flies. I'm not saying you can't catch big fish on flies. These things are true. But I know the whole truth. ;)

It seems to me like you were the one picking a fight with Mr. Twister. The question was "whats working" LURES work for Mr. Twister and others. You sound like a snob.

You could try to make a post about your preference for flies without sounding like an ass.
