i fish a murky lake in louisiana what shoul i fish
If you fish a murky water and plan to catch some crappies, you need to use a chartreuse jig. Keep in mind that you need to get the attention of the fish. If the water is murky, the crappies have a harder time seeing and use the sense of smell and vibration to find their food. You can use a jig with a minnow, but in most cases, you would have to drop the bait right in front of the fish. This would mean the place you are fishing should be heavily populated with crappies and have many different, easy to get to hiding spots. You can try different methods and lures, but if the water is that murky, you need something that will stand out underwater. Sometimes adding a little smell to your bait works very well. One angle I recalled used Nibbles to fish for crappies in murky waters. He said that no matter what or where he was fishing, he was always catching crappies. It is believed that the metal flakes resemble shad as it melts away. It is possible to catch crappies in murky waters, you should try these lures and get a map of the lake so you know where the weed beds and drop offs are located. Those areas will be the best place to start. If you do catch your limit, I would not be surprised. Crappies are pretty easy to catch in any water condition if you use the right bait and lures.
