Bass Murky Water Tactics

#1 Post by Bassy Tom »

Hi All,

just wondering what would be the best tactic for fishing both surface lures and soft plastics for bass in murky water? i have heard a couple of theories regarding colour choice, what are your thoughts/ preferences on this?

Tom.

Whatever you use, best bet might be to fish 'em sloooooow. Should give the fish time to home in on the vibrations of the lure.

Hi Tom use bright colored lures for murky water & natural color for clear water.

I find kilty lures excellent in murky water for bass, especially the luminous green or red, have had great sport when all else fails.
