topwaters in coldwater
02 December 2012 - 12:36 AM
I'm sure most of you know I've been fishing topwaters with some success during the winter. It's not what you would even consider a high percentage gig. For example over the last three trips with almost 6 hours of topwater usage, I caught one smallmouth albeit a very nice one. You could say those results are not far removed from what has been the norm for the last several years.
I recently got into a discussion with several other fishermen who think you have to be insane to consider topwaters when it's tough enough to catch fish in coldwater. My position was that pushing the enveolpe on coldwater river smallmouth knowledge made it worthwhile.
Since it's officially winter and things get slow on the boards sometimes, I thought I'd toss this out for discussion.

Nick Carr the owner of the Kankakee River Trading Post right next to the K3 state park is looking for someone to tie flies he can sell in his store. He would like them to be patterns that work well on the Kankakee River.
