Which Spinnerbait & Buzzbaits best for Mohawksin, NWC?

Secret Weapon Lures is donating spinnerbaits and buzzbaits to participants of the Northwoods Classic this year. I'm wondering what lures will be most welcome for Mohawksin.

This lake on the Wisconsin river system is stained with abundant aquatic vegetation, submerged, emergent, and matted on the surface. Most of the lake seems to be about five to ten feet in depth, with just a few holes deeper than 20 feet. There are several feeder rivers or streams, docks, and bridges with riprap and pilings. Evidently this is the home of numerous of pleasure craft there throughout the summer, so there's plenty of open water, but large tracts of the lake are marked "hazardous" due to plentiful stumps.

So... whether or not you'll be there, if you were fishing the lake during the day in late August, what would be your preference?

What size buzzbait should do best on Mohawksin in late August? 3/16-ounce 5/16-ounce 9/16-ounce

What buzzbait models would work best for daytime fishing in that stained water, over and through vegetation? Wounded Minnow White Shad Chartreuse & White Midnight Snack

What size spinnerbait would work best? 3/16-ounce 5/16-ounce 9/16-ounce 13/16-ounce

Which blade combination? Tandem willowleaf Double willowleaf Single willowleaf Double Colorado Single Colorado Tandem Indiana Single Indiana Tandem Turtleback (mag willow) Single Turtleback

What color main blade? Gold Nickel Chartreuse White Red

Spinnerbait pattern (feel free to suggest a particular pattern) Dark (e.g., Golden Shad, Midnight Snack, Rock Craw, Firetiger Perch) Chartreuse mixes (e.g., Cht/blue back, Cht & White, Cht Shad, Green Goddess, Bluegill) Light (White shad, Wht Shiner, Wounded Minnow) Clearwaters (e.g.,k TN Shad, Citrus Shad, Baby Bass, Blue Shad)

Thanks for your help.

I won't be there, but Midnight Snack with a single colorado (nickel, of course) would have been my choice. Charles

Do you mean as a buzzbait or spinnerbait? "Charles B. Summers, QOF." <hidingmyreal@ddress.phacue> wrote in message news:oP-dnZ2dnZ1sjQHfnZ2dnT3VaN-dnZ2dRVn-0J2dnZ0@comcast.com... I won't be there, but Midnight Snack with a single colorado (nickel, of course) would have been my choice. Joe

The smallmouth and pike liked a black skirted spinnerbait with a silver willowleaf last year when I fished it after yall all went home. 1/4 ounce size, no name bait I bought in Rhinelander. Like to throw cheap baits there with all the pike. Ronnie

As much *luck* as I've had with the spinnerbaits, you know I'd have to try the buzzbait as well! Charles
