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 ***.

Well stated.

Let's just take the high road boys and get this thread back on track....

[jjf]

Cannt  we all just get along     Just to help us get back on track with this thread I have got to give another big endorsement to the Yozuri Pin Minnows. What a great lure. I landed an 18 inch brown, my personal best, the first week of the tourney and I couldn't find the camera
OK, one more time what has been working for you this season.

Sorry about hijacking your thread jjf. Also sorry to hear you couldn't get a pic of your fish. I'll have to try those lures never seen them before.

A piece of corn and a split shot killing the stockers

Ok heres the deal.  I always start with spinning tackle, panther martins, mepps aglias, small rapalas, and spoons.  I have BADLY outfished flyfisherman using these tacktics.  And not on crappy stocked streams, I'm talkin' famed catskill streams like the Beaverkill, Willowemoc, and neversink rivers.  BUT I always keep a flyrod handy for when trout are selective.  Also I have had times on the neversink where I would throw these lures for about an hour with no hits at all, then I would switch to something like an attractor wet fly, and hook a nice trout on the second drift.  Also when fishing reservoirs the best bait for large trout (for me anyway) is to use minnows on slip sinker rigs.  Lure fishing catches a few trout, but usually arent the monsters you can get with live baitfish.  And when fishing new water it is always better to use spinning tackle because you can cover more water quickly and find the fish.  Then you can switch to live bait, or fly gear.  thank you.

I have been having luck trolling with weeping willows (copper colored), speedy shiners and streamers. I am an avid flyfisherman and have to state when I am not trolling with hardware I am casting a fly and outfishing most folks once I figure out whats going to work. I use to spin cast only but since I learned how to flyfish I have caught a lot of fish, BIG FISH!!! I suggest wetting a fly if you haven't yet.
