Stocking up for spring - Fishing Forum | Fishing Tackle | Fishing Gear

This is the time of year I like to try and get restocked on baits, anything new out there I should put in my box for spring. Any and all ideas welcome.

Hey Slim this is SMDave from tinboats! I would like to suggest you get some Rat-L-Traps, shallow diving square billed cranks, and tubes/jigs. They have always been killer for me for fishing prespawn, spawn, and the post spawn alike.

lol took almost a month to get some ideas, however i have all of those things already (with more traps on the way i loves my traps, and fat a bombers) But im glad your willing to throw in your two cents thanks.

Husky jerks are a must have for the early spring. They are killer for the early spring fishing here in ohio!!! I use a 5-7 inch, they tend to get the most strikes. Remember, they are kinda expensive though, so choose and use wisely. Last time I checked they are around 5 bucks a pop!

I'm going to try some smaller glide baits used for musky this year. Going for the bug one!!

Thats about 12$ cheaper than the lucky crafts I have, might have to pick some up.
