Northwest Fishing Reports

This morning I was going through my bass gear and came up with all kinds of stuff that I have had for a couple years and never used. OK, I've probably tried each of these things at least once or twice, but they are just taking up space now.

Can anyone comment of whether or not these items are fished here in Western WA? Some of this stuff I have handfuls of, like all lizard baits. After a couple days I will throw it on the classifieds forum unless you convince me that I need it.

(What about the very last thing at the bottom of last photo...? I think when I was in Lousianna people were all jazzed about that bait-- or how do you fish it exactly?

Im just gonna be straight up with ya ! All the plastic lizards in the pics are good for Carolina Rigs without question ! As for the SpoonJigs , those are cool for winter fishing !! As for the Storm Swimbaits , ahhh , welll , hmmm , nearest trash can and make a donation ..lol

Hey Quad,I'm certainly no expert but it seems everything checks out and
would work fine.I've only recently started using plastics.,image 4 I'm not familiar
with but many things are foreign to me#-o

I have and use the soft swim baits in pic 2. Got my first Musky bite on one of them.

The last 1 you have there is very productive...

Dez.. or anyone.. I pretty much thought the same thing on Storm swimbaits. Which picture is the spoonjigs? When I google spoon jig I don't get anything like any of the stuff I've shown
Also what are the funky looking lures ?(it's 2 in a pic. with single hooks)

Thanks

those funny looking things are salmon or trout trolling lures

The lure your refering to is a tasmanian devil, first created in Australia. Now they are available at many tackle shops. Do not toss these, these are my go to lure for trout, and this year the pink in pink color. First time I saw these used I was fishing in lake wash and this comes in with this lure and bam 3 lb trout, then hooks another and another. I'm like damn what is this "the devil" he calls it. Go home and order some hit the potholes with these and have never caught so many trout in my life, just on this lure. I use these all the time and they always bring me success. The yellow and red one has accounted for more big trout than I ever caught using anyother lure. By all means try this lure and you'll see how many you catch.

Spoons would be on Pic 2 ... the first 2 items. Here is something quick on jigging with spoons ...

Those Zipper looking plastics would be great on a Drop shot or even texas rigged. I'd eat'em!
