What is your favorite bait for fishing reeds? Just discovered there is a huge spot of reeds in the north end of a new lake we started going to the last couple weeks and one of my buddies sent me a pic of a 7.2 and 2 5 lbs pigs he pulled out of them. He was pitching a lizard in and around the reeds. I plan on duplicating this but was curious as to what yalls favorite is for reeds?

Are those Pit Boss lures any good?

Theyre awesome baits. One of my go to baits for flipping and pitching. Has a nice compact body so it slides through cover with ease. It has good action too. I like it better than the sweet beaver or wooley bug.

They're terrible...

I would name my next born Pit Boss if I was allowed too...

Spinnerbait.

yep, pit boss. awesome baits. i like biffle bugs, power team conviction craws, pt t rig jig, theres a lot a like. just depends on how im feelin that day.

A pitboss or sweet beaver will get through the reed a lot better than a lizard. Try pitching those. Also try a hallow-belly frog.

Early or sparse reeds it's tough to beat a spinnerbait. Later in summer when reeds get thicker and tough I use a white swim jig on braid.
