NWI-Bassin'

Everytime I've gone out on Lake Michigan , I don't catch anything. I've tried everything I have .. Plastics,jigs,spinners,cranks , etc. I'm not sure if it matters but I'm fishing out of the portage lakefront walk. Other people were catching things but I can't even get a bite. Help? Thanks!

i like the sahara more but the bail wire seems pretty flimsy.

What about the sedona . it's cheaper and has good reviews.

What size reel? I'm looking at a shimano sahara .1000 or 2500. Going to put it on a bass pro micro lite. 6 foot or 6 1/2?

What size rod should i be using as well as line.?

I recently got back into fishing after 6 months of giving up . But theres this lake 10 minutes away from me with nice sized bluegill as weel as smallies and an occasional large mouth . Well , I need a rod for catching bluegills and crappie too. Any recommendations?My guess would be an UL but im not sure. Also , what are a few of your top baits for catching Bluegills.. Thanks!

What about your spool tension knob.?

What part of northern Indiana. I'm up here as well.

A billed jig head .

I've tried spinnerbaits and never had any luck..

Alewife,smelt and perch are pretty common.

Well , the water all depends. It can be somewhat clear then Murky ..I'm not sure what the forge is , I haven't really checked. But I fish Lake Michigan majority of the time.

What colors ? I went to bass pro and couldn't decide so I gave up. Lol

I have money to spend and I want to have a successful season .. So what are some of your successful , sure fire baits & lures? Thanks.

Where are all of the Indiana fisherman. From Indy to NWI . What are you guys looking forward to the season ??
