This is my first post and it's an old thread,but a good thread. There are times when artificial lures work better than bait. I fish creeks and rivers and what works for me is:
1) Thomas special spin
2) gold Thomas eel (spoon)
3) 1/32 gold panther martin
4) silver #1 willow leaf mepps
5) gold phoebe (spoon)
These work for smallmouth too. I carry several of each. It seems that the flash of these lures works well in some instances. I'm still looking for that soft plastc that will work for smallmouth and trout.
