Thread: STRIKE KING BITSY MINNOW

I have a bunch of them... The bluegill love'm. I like tipping the rear trebble hook with a crappie nibble too.

I use them fishing farm ponds

I've got a couple. Just picked them up on an end of season sale.

I use them. Not my go-to, but I put one on when the fishing is slow. Seems like I'll always catch two or three good ones plus the occasional fun battle of the green carp on 2lb. mono. Also good for crappie when they are in shallows around stumps or suspended near the surface in open water.

I like to use these in the spring for gills/bass in my pond . THE solid white red ear is the only one I do well on . do you have luck on the others ?

I'm sure it's a good bait, but treble hooks and bream are not a good mix, IMO.

Besides, jigs and flies work so well, it's hard to justify using anything else.

I use the green with stripes and redish and catch bass, big bluegill to 1-1/2lbs and if you drag it fast for a few cranks to get it deep then slow steady retrieve crappie will eat it. I like the trebles cause it won't git swallowed by the gills if your going to release them. I carry a hemostat or small needle nose for removal

I have three - ea. one a different color. The one I've had the best luck with has an olive green back over a white belly. I need to seek out the white one you speak of. One of my all time favorite bream baits is the 1/32 oz white beetle with a red spot on it. Don't know what it is about the red spot, but it seems to be important.
