They work great for us around Houma, never tried em' in Big Lake, sand eels seem hard to beat around there.

I, for one, do not buy into the thought that lures work in one area of the coast and do not in others. If Bayou Chubs work great in the Dularge/Cocodrie area, it does not mean that Norton Eels won't. And, if Nortons seem to be the bait of choice on Big Lake, Chubs will consistently catch fish there, also. These trout are not programmed like robots to hit a certain bait in a certain area. During my only trip to Big Lake, my buddy and myself threw nothing but Bombers for 2 days and caught big trout. Our guide had never seen a Long "A" and, there's a good chance, that the fish hadn't either.

I don't buy into it either Salty, I personally have done the best on Bayou Chubs where I fish (Cocodrie/Dularge) and the few times I've fished Big lake we've caught on Sand Eels. But, I'll admit, I've never thrown a chub in Big Lake. I agree with you though, fish are fish, where ever you go. I wasn't trying to say they wouldn't work over there or down talk em'.

I have several of them........don't use them much, because I have never caught anything on them.

Maybe that's why you've never caught anything on 'em.

and now....the rest of the story?

[huntin fool]

i had a lil secret bait going at first!


first cast..whap! hooked up

[LaAngler]

i think that certain lures do work better than other or different bodies of water, best colors for sure differ, i know this for a fact.

take bass for example, certain lures for certain lakes/marshes

"I don't think color makes that much difference but it some times matters!!!"


Bruce, I'm totally confusioned, too


W, if color doesn't matter.....why do you like more than one?

[txjoker]

Wait, did I read this correctly? Is "W" talking about working his chub... no matter what color?

W Dont do Chubs!!!!!!

["W"]

70% of the time when I'm on fish color does not matter!!! Their is that 30% when they get picky....take yesterday between me fool and Bruce we all were catching fish with 3 different colors!!!

[Salty]

I would agree that, when fish are in a frenzy, 70% of the time they'll hit anything. I'm excluding the big fish here. How many times have you found, while fishin' birds, that those W's want a certain color bait?

[txjoker]

That's because "W" only fishes live bait!
