Hello,

Live outside of Boston, and fish in a local Pond mainly. Mainly Panfish, but an occasional Small or Large Mouth Bass.

Another week or so, and it will probably be warm enough (for me) to get going again.

Usually use Mepps spinners. They often seems to work.

Not an expert in any sense of the word, but would certainly like to learn.

Questions:

a. when would one use a dressed Mepps vs an undressed (bare hook) style ?

- is it a bit of a function of water temp., or... ?

b. would you also use a Pork jig trailer on an undressed Mepps ?

- under what conditions ?

- have never used Pork or other kinds of trailers. If you think they are a good idea, what style for
the really small Mepps spinners would you suggest ?

- where else would you use a Pork trailer, and under what conditions ?

c. what would you use for when the water is still cold, like in the next few weeks ? Why ?

quite a few questions, but do appreciate the help.

Thanks, as always,
Bob
