Tiercel 6,986 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Mepps spinners are deadly for trout, no matter where used For the water you fish some mepps will work better than others, it really is a matter of trial and error to find the best one to suit water conditions where you fish. There are some basic guidelines but that is all they are, guidelines and not guaranteed to work everywhere. The clearer the water the duller the spinner, black works well in gin clear water The more coloured the water the brighter the spinner silver, moving to copper as the water clears.

chrismdd 787 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Went worming for wild brownies a couple of days ago with a mate who came up from Devon. We fished all the snaggy swims where no one else fishes, in two hours I had only two missed bites but my mate had two beautiful brownies each about 2 lb. He had to use a single swan shot to keep the worm trickling along the bottom to get a take, as soon as the bait was motionless there were no takes. Best times we find are between 8 and 10am before the sun is too high. We only take our limit and return any real big ones and never take any less than 10 inches. Hardly fished round here as it is difficult with all the overhanging trees and waist high nettles but that's the beauty of it (no wooden platforms here). On the way back we pulled up the two crayfish traps and had twelve to take home. These were purged and boiled as we cooked the trout whole wrapped in foil with lots of fresh lemon, sea salt and black pepper. So trout followed by crayfish, lovely. Chris 3 Quote Link to post
johnny boy68 11,726 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I've had a fair bit of luck over the years with a bit of cheese moulded around the hook when the usual methods seem to fail. 1 Quote Link to post
