To start some 1/8oz gold/green prizm Slender Spoons for sure…
I’m sure some experienced LOW ice heads will pipe in here also…January 23, 2012 at 4:22 pm #1031172anything with Gold for sure.
Also make sure to have some glow Pink& some Red.
Start with 1/8 and go up. Should not need anything more than a 1/4, at least I never did.January 23, 2012 at 4:59 pm #1031188Trev:
Last winter up there, Gold/Glow outproduced all others we tried, though I know Cal’s been tearing it up with the Glow/Green in 1/8th, 1/4, and 5/16th sizes depending on depth. Here’s some info from last year on that slender spoon bite:
January 23, 2012 at 5:07 pm #1031194Trev, Just got back yesterday from LOW. We fished the Gill Rock area. Didn’t catch one fish on a Slender spoon. Tried Gold glow and one other in the 1/4 and 1/8 sizes. For quality fish17″+, we used jigging raps(Perch, red chrome, and blue chrome. For pure numbers, it was buck shot spoons (Redish with a pink or gold back and gold with a back that I can’t remember). Good Luck

January 23, 2012 at 5:57 pm #1031207well not to toss anything out there but blue/chrome has been on fire for the last three years for me up there……call it a confidence bait ……idk…..but just saying ……also these baits have mostly been in a pimple or a jigging rap…..sometimes the under utilized baits help….seems like everyone has a glow….red……pink or gold on up there…….just trying to be outside the box
nice thing is the fish up there are a little more stupid imo
CharlesJanuary 23, 2012 at 8:30 pm #1031263I was up there last weekend as well buddy caught a couple on the smaller gold with green tape ss. I tried alittle bigger one is most other colors and didn’t have much luck. I did have a good run with a smaller black/silver foil lightning spoon. Might as well toss a couple of those in your order…
good luck.
