Smallie Lures

[LilSiman/Medina]

I'm gonna try to start a thread for all kinds of smallie lures.

So far I've had luck with:
-Rebel Craws
-Flash Spinners 1/4 oz
-White Rooster Tail 1/8 oz

I've never tried soft plastics and I also wondered if a regular night crawler that's texas rigged would work?

plastics > lures for smallies from my experience....the only lure I use is a mini heddon torpedo

What kinds of plastics?

Tubes, lizzards, stick worms?

[FISHIN216]

Not really a fan of tubes....I always lose them. Try out some senkos

All of the above.... plus jerkbaits........ clown color Husky Jerks, or chrome/ black back Cordell Redfin ...... safety pin style spinnerbaits

[JSykes3]

Friends and I have been nailing good ones on x-raps. Silver color. One of my friends has been doing good with chartreuse Booyah pond magic spinnerbaits. Double willowleaf I believe.

My top 3
Smallest jointed shad rap
size 2 -3 mepps
rebel

[SeanStone]

First choice is a grub/swim bait with a road runner jig head, (jig head with a blade)seems to be the most productive for me.

A close second would be a Rapala original floating minnow, size 7. I like the chrome and red. Most versatile lure to use, can be used topwater real slow, or stop and go, and even just steady reel.

My third choice would be a topwater popper, my best luck has been with the Storm rattling chug bug, in the bass color.

When all else fails throw a small inline spinner bait, the Mepps Aglia's have to be my favorite.

I toss these every time I go to the creek.

3 in Senko or tube watermelon w- red flake
#2 Blue Fox spinner ( gold or silver)

[austie]

weedless Tubes in either in watermelon/ or blue and black
texas rigged 3inch Strike King rage tailed grub's chartreuse or brown with red/green/purple flake
Small inline spinnerbaits
white or black 3/8 oz buzzbait. trailer hook is a must have or you'll miss alot of strikes due to the speed the bait moves at.

[gerb]

ive never even tried plastics--but ive had exceptional luck on black strike king buzzbaits (with trailer), poppers, and rebel craws. all from streams.

If I were going out today, I would throw gobie or smoke colored tubes, then a senko wacky rigged. We also catch alot of them trolling cranks for wallleye over rocks.
