It's nice to know that most lures we catch fish on are good for most fish species

No matter where I fish I can catch fish on the same lure without changing it for a new one except when it starts falling off the hook. (Lazy I guess.) This is an example of 5 species that hit the same lure today:

Different color but same tail design and action.

The day was overcast and dead calm. Hopefully tomorrow I'll catch more than 37 fish if there's a wind like a few days ago when the action was amazing!

Wow, nice fish. Thanks for sharing

That's awesome - multi species. I've had up to four, maybe five hit on a crappie jig with a minnow/baby shad set up (crappie, bass, catfish, bluegill and white perch). Keeps things interesting!

Those large bass and catfish will test those drag settings on the crappie gear. They sure are fun to catch

I like the multi specie as well, Spoon. Almost all my baits work that way. The Trout Master has put away everything on my home water stream.

Interesting yesterday was when I went back to some pads I kicked A last time I fished. A gent was fishing from shore not catching anything watching me catch 8 fish fast - 4 species. He didn't ask what I was casting and so I opened the conversation asking if he had any luck before I got there. Negative. So I gave him a jig head and a few lures along with the presentation needed to fish the gaps in the pads. I think he greatly appreciated the gesture.

I told him about this forum, my user name and how we all share information. Should be interesting if he shows up cause I'm sure he'll want more of those lures and how to make them once he catches fish. Surprising was the brand of braid he and I both use which few do!

Spreading the word and the friendliness, way to go Spoon!

X2 :fish

:hesaid X3

That was definitely a real nice gesture, Spoon. If he joins the site he will move up with success right from the git go.

No doubt !
This is the most active friendly-angler side bar none! I fish to discover & share - that's it!
If the advice, tips or general knowledge is of use, so much the better because we all build on that to become better anglers and get more fish to bite.
Sad that a majority of forums are dead or so opinionated that they're not even worth visiting much less posting on which is the reason Crappie.com is the only shortcut on my home page.

You're a true fishing Ambassador (or should I say Ambassadeur, like the ABU reels). I'm sure that gentlemen will remember your assitance and guidance.

This is the most active, friendly, angler side bar none!

Change side to site. Usually I proof what I write. Sorry bout that.

Yes, but it is on the good side of the Internet.

Just my nature to do that as well. I have some friends that I see fishing that I met that way near 20 years ago now. We do what we’re told to do.

Largemouth, smallmouth, spotted and numerous other freshwater bass are members of the sunfish family too.

Cruising the waters of Pennsylvania are 17 sunfish family species. Other common fish such as crappies and rock bass are also sunfish. Banded, longear and warmouth sunfish are endangered.

Have caught all of them and love their aggressive nature!
