Did you come to shore in the cove below the 33 hole south parking lot at about 11 am? If that was you, I was fishing straight across the cove from you from shore. I was the only one fishing in the area. I gotta admire the way you scrambled up that cliff near where you put in, especially with all that equipment.
I have two questions about the Beetle Spin. It looks like you replaced the original silver colorado blade with a gold willow leaf. Is that right? Also it looks like there's a bigger 'ring' between the swivel and the blade.
What sort of retrieve do you find works best with that lure? Like slow or fast, steady retrieve or twitch-twitch, or something else?
Sorry for giving you the 3rd degree. The reason I'm so curious is because I was using the exact same lure today with no hits. I tried every retrieve I could dream up. I also tried the white with red dot.
