So, today I stopped at Cabellas after I fished Kaercher Creek in Pennsylvania and realized how much I miss this place. They had Cavitron Buzzbaits and Shake2's which I can't find anywhere but TW.

Now, when fishing in this stuff

What line and lure do y'all suggest? I really want to switch to braid but to be honest, I'm scared haha.

I would try braid. I switched to it on my casting setup recently, and I love it! And I would be throwing a spinnerbait, frog, bladed jig, and t-rigged plastics.

Yeah, appreciated!

 

I only fish with spinning gear so I'll be seeing what I should do here. 

Why are you scared of braid?

Nothing to fear, unless you fear falling in love 

 

Seriously, I use braid for 'everything', and find it particularly well-suited to spinning gear (there are several advantages).

Having done a lot of fishing for keen-sighted bluefin tuna, when I first began I dutifully affixed a leader to the braid.

That soon grew old, which I now consider busywork, today I use straight braid even in clear water and feel no pain

are you kidding me? that "stuff" is nothing, no problem for any line 

Braid is a game changer. If you, or anyone else reading this who hasn't tried it, hasn't spooled up a reel with braid, you need to give it a go!

Fire line; color- smoke.

I fish mono through coontail, as low as 8lb test. It comes through pretty well. The coontail in my lakes is pretty brittle, so your mileage may vary...

I was just down to Cabelas and didn't see the shake2's. Must have missed those. BTW, how is Kaercher Creek fishing these days? Haven't fished there in years. Use to be able to catch bass even in the dog days of summer there. I always fished to the left (if your facing the lake) of the fishing pier.

It was the first time I was there since last year, I'm from the Hershey area. I walk up the trail to the right towards the riprap and fished the cove before it in the coontail. Landed plenty of big fish last year but this year, I couldn't catch anything. Had trouble in the rip-rap too. It was annoying.

 

It was the last bit of Shake2's, they only had 3 and they were on sale. I was shocked! They have the Cavitron Buzzbaits too which is super surprising because I thought I coulld only buy those online!
