Went fishing today from about 8:30 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. at Northmoreland Lake; caught nothing on my spinnerbait, crankbaits, minnows, crayfish, and hotdogs. Ended up getting bored and netted a water snake, a bull frog, and 2 bluegill (?) fry.

Yes that right, but the strike kings ones that im talking about are the cheapest they sell, they arent even a box,i buy them from dicks sporting goods hanging on a tag. When u remove the clicker from the boo-ya you get a basic buzzy.
Strike king basic-2.99
boo-ya-5.99
The trick is knowing when and where. From my observation in the last four years. Atleast 4-6 days a week fishing, i will say the buzzy is in the top 3 baits ever made. It catches 12-15" bass no probrlem, its a great search bait, u can cover some much water at a fast pace,THE TOP WATER ACTION IS THE BEST ON THE PLANET, and the fact that i can cast a 1/4 so lovely, it feels very good on the end of 20lb braid(suffix).
I will say with bass fishing more of the bigger fish get caught a on slower presentation but again knowing when and where to use the buzzy u will catch fish
. It been raining here all day and probaly will rain all day long but you never whats tomorrow is going to be bring.

hmm ive never used those strikeking buzzbaits baits, they should be good though i like to use the 1 dollar walmart spinner baits to troll for pike.
Iam userly preaty good at fishing buzzbaits I'll see a spot and be like ok there sould be a fish here and most time there is. but that dosnt mean they will get it the first try.
When: 6:40p.m.-9:30p.m.
Where: Indian Lake
Fish caught on: Rapala shad rap (yellow perch), Rapala Minnow rap (Hot steel)
Info: Went to a local lake today to troll for pike and walleye. Ended up catching two bass. I caught one and my friend caught one. I guess a few weeks ago they treated the lake with chemicals so that might explain the slow bite.

ehh.. little below average size for this lake. In fact I think thats the smallest one I,ve caught out of that lake. Normally this is my best lake but I think the fish are still spawning, plus those chemicals didnt help. Last year we caught several 4 pounders trolling this lake at this time of year.Wiggles92;3172630; said:
O, wow. Still pretty good, though, considering the chemicals and all. The chemicals might screw up the spawn, depending on the chemical

.Most the chemicals had copper in them one had bromine (they had a list of what they added)Wiggles92;3172686; said:O, wow. Still pretty good, though, considering the chemicals and all. The chemicals might screw up the spawn, depending on the chemical
