I tend to like…

1. Large Beetle spinner. (large walleye, Northern Pike)

2. White Mepps "Musky Killer" (but I've never pulled in a musky, more of a large mouther)

 

To add to the question…. What are your 2 favorite lure brands? Just something I've been wondering.

 

1. Mepps

2. Berkley PowerBait

Easy Answer….

1 Spro

2 Omega (Great Product… but the hooks are weak and must changed them out often)

Hey thanks man!!!!

I had this jig I bought at a rummage sale and it kicks ass!

It's a Omega: The Revelation Swim Jig.

So I 2nd this lure. It's not my most successful but I will say I do like to use it.

SOOOOO I took your advice. Threw on a jig. Just a medium sized white head jig, with some power bait tail for some flavor. 

I got hit ALL DAY! Again my Brother and I walked real far back in the woods and found a super small clearing on the edge of a river bed, I haven't been able to find the name of. There was a fresh rain the night before so the spot was about an inch of water where we stood. We just slushed through it and pushed some branches out of our way. Started casting and it was all fun from there on out. My Brother was using our (until now) favorite lure.  A medium sized beetle spinner. I was thinking about what you said and popped that jig on…

At first I was reeling it in rather fast… Then I slowed it down and gave a little jerk to it to get the tail flashing in the mucky water. It wasn't until I pop dragged it across the bottom that I started getting hits! There were some great fun sized large mouths down there. I even ended up snagging a 20 inch northern. 

I'll post pics after this. It was awesome I just wanted to thank you for kinda getting me to try something different. I think I won my brother over as well. :)

Been fishing too much to even post the photos. I'm up north in the St. Germain area. Didn't get a single bite today….. Was a beautiful day tho. Going to a hidden river tomorrow. Wish me luck!
