What do you think about fishing in the rain?

What are the best lures and techniques for fishing in a heavy downpore?

Spinnerbait

Spinnerbait or swim jig

TOP!!! WATER!!!

 

Throw a hollow body frog around and under trees and/or close to shore. Or walk a spook like a dog :-)

Rarely get summer rain here or any other lately...but i agree with spinnerbait when we do get it

Black and Blue Jig. Caugh my biggest bass fishing that in the rain.

It doesn't rain in Washington. Spinnerbait with BIG willow blade.

Black & blue chatterbait. Caught my PB around 2am in the rain throwing a black & blue Booyah Chatterbait.

I like using this top water spinner. Has props on the front and back and makes a bunch of noise. Not a good fish in this pic, but the only one I have with the lure...

 

I think fishing in the rain is more productive than at any other time.  Although we may not like it, the fish seem to.

Years ago, following the remants of a hurricane, it was pouring buckets, my fishing partner and I were 40 miles

from home.  There was some wind, but mostly downpour.  He says we are here lets go out.  We did, and we caught

30 to 40 bass in 1 hour, on pig and jigs.  Most fish were in the 5 lb class.  All were largemouth.  It was the best

fishing day I ever had.  You could throw the jig out any direction and have a hook up in a couple of seconds.  That

day is going to be hard to forget.

Rain...What's Rain?
