VMC Aberdeen Hook
$2.09 – 2.79

Grewes Lakes (MI)
Omnia Community Member reported catching Panfish / Bluegill using the Bobbers technique and VMC Aberdeen Hook on Grewes Lakes. Additional comments from this report: "Fish were primarily caught 2-20 from shore. The majority of fish caught were either, blue gill, green sunfish, or pumpkin seed sunfish. With occasional crappie, perch, and on occasion pike as well. This lake would be great for younger kids as the easiest setup would be with a bobber, hook, and your choice of worm or grub. The best spot for the panfish would be to the left or right of the beach itself. "

Owner Walleye Bait Hook
$2.99

Upper Prior Lake (MN)
Wild Urban Adventures YouTube reported catching Walleye using the Bobbers technique and Owner Walleye Bait Hook on Upper Prior Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fishing for walleye is still good right now just as the sun is going down. Small window of opportunity for good walleye action. We fished from shore from boat launch areas soaking a fathead underneath a night led bobber. Plain hook or colored hooks with small split shot under a light bobber, around 2-3 feet under bobber. Cast bobber out and let sit for a few minutes. Give line a twitch every so often. Reel in any slack and kee line as tight as you can for when they bite, so you can set the hook on them. Might have to let them take the bobber for a few seconds before setting hook. They are very light biters, especially before and after their active moment during sun going down. Use the medium size fatheads, not the crappie minnows. "
VMC Octopus Hook
$2.79

Reported by
Tyler Robinson
Daggett Lake (MN)
Tyler Robinson reported catching Panfish / Bluegill using the Bobbers technique and VMC Octopus Hook on Daggett Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Crappies and gills are moving towards the back bays. However, your nicer fish seem to still be on the weed flats in 5-10 feet. Simple set up with bobber and red hook and crappie minnow hooked in the lip. Fan cast until you find a school and try to stay on top of them."

Greg Evers reported catching Walleye using the Bobbers technique and VMC Octopus Hook on Upper Red Lake. Additional comments from this report: "We fished the weekend of December 11th and the walleyes were being very finicky. Our best luck was on minnows on a dead stick a foot off the bottom. "

We hit the mid lake reefs and worked all the way around the the lilipads. We moved west, then north and finally east. We slid the slip bobbers up and down. We used leaches, red worms, night crawlers, jigs, jigs tipped with crappie nibblers and jigs sprayed with attractant. Everything producted. We caught bluegill, pumpkinseed, crappie, largemouth bass and northern pike. After fishing hard for bass and musky on other lakes, a slow day of just catching panfish was great!
