Re: Best walleye and northern lures for September?
I know it has be too late for your fishing trip, but I swear by little cleos. I have even caught large mouth bass on them. (October Northern Wisconsin, Real cold day snowing with patches of sun.) Northern love them. Silver/blue. When in Ontario for a week, I caught well over 100 northerns on them and three of us landed Muskies with them. We had already tried everything and were getting nothing. The guy in the boat with me, put the Cleo on as the last resort and started yanking Northerns in like crazy. I tried same color in a Johnson minnow and got nothing. He gave me his backup Cleo and out of 3 boats, we were the only ones catching fish. Not only catching fish, but literally yanking them in one after the other. The bronze color works well in stained water. Even the daredevils did not catch them that one day. Since then, the Cleo has been a staple for me in late fall.
...the second week of September, So I'll try to get some of these lures and try them. A lot of what I have heard says that chartreuse seems to be a great color for walleye. Have you ever tried a Little Cleo in yellow/red or chartreuse color pattern for northern, walleye or smallmouth bass?
