Baits for Muddy Water

Featured Replies

Spinnerbaits (colorado blade), 8" or bigger plastics, noisy baits. All in dark colors with the exception of chartruese. Lots of scent, kick n bass or jj's magic.

I like a black and blue rattling jig with a big trailer (a Paca craw is my go-to).

Dark colors with alot of noise an smell if you got it.

Like bigtimfish said, JJ's Magic is a good choice.

Read this in a magazine, looked good so I wanna build one....

Use a 3/8 or 1/2 oz. chartreuse or chartreuse/white spinnerbait, change lead blade to a bright fluorescent red #3 colorado blade, and trailing blade to a #7 indiana blade in gold. Use a 4" or 5" white grub for trailer to add bulk. This is supposed to be bright, very bulky for profile, and have a lot of thump to it, and the red blade is supposed to really help out with visibility (not totally sure how but it was in the magazine, either Bassmaster or Bassin' earlier this year).

This was just what I read, and I remember it cause it sounded good at the time. I think I'm gonna get a Booyah spinnerbait to try this with since they have such brightly colored skirts. I have not made one yet but I will.

There is a lake I fish that has a creek empty into it. The water is muddy all of the time, and worse when it rains. The best luck that I have is on a 3/8 or 1/2 ounce black jig with a big black trailer.
