willlliw Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 (edited) Got this so I can still fish swimbaits through the winter. This is a very fun bait to fish on BFS. It's crazy how aggressive these fish are while the water is below 40 degrees! They were multiple fish trying to eat this bait at once.

I’ve got some local trout that would likely react in the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Luc Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Can they be used to catch stocker rainbows? I feel like that would so much fun to use if its something that they'd eat. willlliw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brook trout would have an orange-red belly with white edges on the pelvic and pectoral fins. As well as having light spots on a dark background instead of dark spots on a light background BoatSquirrel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PNW EOD Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Been using the S-Waver 120 for a while in a few inlets and outlets on some of my lakes here in WA. It absolutely crushes some of the bigger rainbows. Still haven't tried a 70 though! willlliw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6Deuce Posted January 25, 2022 Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 That’s really cool. Now I want to try it in my local park lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
