Best Lures for murky water
#1
I live 5 minutes away from a lake with murky water I've been fishing there for about 2 weeks. So far i haven't caught anything. I have tried a wide variety of lures (Poppers, Crankbaits, Frogs, Jigs, and Jerkbaits) and i don't know if i have the wrong color or lure. Please try and help.

I have been in the exact same situation with virtually the same lures. I have been fishing the lake near my place for a few months, and have not been able to pull one bass out of it. I knew that a few were in there, but i figured out that the catfish and crappie were much more plentiful there. You might just be fishing for the wrong thing.

P.S. - How big is the lake? Is the water hot or cold?

it's a small lake and no powerboats are allowed. it's in southern maryland so its fairly warm. by the way its a man made lake ,spring fed and stocked with Bass and Bluegill.

Well with a little more info on the make up of the pond, like just what is the visibility and and then what is the bottom content. How much vegitation, what is your timber make up? Tell me this and I imagine we can get you rolling. You should be getting ready for some good fall fishing.

I have a lake by me that is like pea soup. You loose site of your lure within 6in. I have found throwing a cooper colored spinnerbait worked well for me. They are a hard find I only found them on those cheapy spinner racks. Also trolling a jerk bait workrd good to but that may have been dumb luck I'm not big on trolling. I did it out of bordem on a very slow day.
