Clear water fishing
I recently moved and found an extremely clear lake.A decent size for up here. I need to know tips and techniques to use in this lake. I am used to stained
water so any info will help. Thanks, Dave V |

| In extremely clear water, I have found that adding a little or a lot of
purple hue into your baits almost always helps. This came from years of
using and believing in the Color-C-Lector. I wouldn't have believed it had
I not seen it with my own eyes. That thing was always pretty good at
telling you what color fish would respond to (or should I say "see"?) best.
I have also tended towards downsizing the baits slightly and tend to
fish them a little more quickly then I would in stained water. Very generic, I know, but these are the things I tend to do differently
from my normal... |

| Go extreme, in both directions. The two most consistent tactics I've ever
found for gin clear water. 1) drop shot -- small natural colored worms, light tackle. 2) Big, bright spinnerbaits, with the blades waking and gurgling the
surface. RichZ©

| I like a lighter colored, almost translucent bait in clear water. For
topwater, a bone, or other lite color seems to work for me.

| Thanks guys, I did some research on the lake and found out it was part of an old
amusement park.
There is alot of cement, steel and wood structure in the lake from a roller
coaster that was demolished. Also had several boat peirs the were demolished
as well. Here's a link to the site for it if you want to check it out. http://www.defunctparks.com/parks/PA/rockyglen/rockyglen.htm |
