Never really had much luck with craw baits, at least where I’m at. I swim somewhat regularly at 2 of the places I fish and I’ve never seen a craw in the water, but maybe I just haven’t fished them enough. I know part of creature/craw baits is partially a reaction thing and not just mimicking a specific prey.

Any go to colors for jerks/crankbaits? I generally go for a silver/chrome sort of look. I also broke my only jerkbait today so thats great lol.

Alright you guys need to help me out. Just stumbled across this page today, glad to find something relevant to what I'm doing rather than hearing random pros talk about the bite in Texas or something. Anyways, I've had bad luck this year. I have a kayak, but haven't taken it out yet cause it's kind of a pain in the ass to move around and I feel like its not worth the effort when the fishing isn't quite peak yet. So, a summary of my situation is that I am on foot (somewhat), located north of Boston (Andover), and can't catch anything. So far I've mostly been using crankbaits, ratltraps, jigs, and various finesse things. Nothing really seems to be working. I know its probably super broad to make any real assessment but if anyone has any reasonable advice for my situation it would be much appreciated. Once things warm up and school slows down I'll be much more kayak friendly but for the time being I'm pretty landlocked. From what I've gathered (at least from dinks and dunks) ned rigs and jerkbaits seem to be the ticket this time of year. If anyone has any advice or tactics for me to break this historic slump, or some great spots near me that you've had success at, it would be greatly appreciated. Good luck everyone!
