Shimano Curado DC Casting Reel
$304.99

Reported by
Cameron Creamer
Lake Champlain (NY, VT)

Reported by
Simi
Green Lake (MN)
Simi reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Finesse Jigs technique and Shimano Curado DC Casting Reel on Green Lake . Additional comments from this report: "The Smallmouth were smashing the Stealth Feider 3/8 jig when paired with the Crush City Bama trailer. Any other color triggered no bites. These fish have been eating crawfish non stop. You can find the largemouth in the weeds pretty consistently and the smallmouth in the sand just off the weed piles. Swimming a jig just off the bottom slowly worked triggered many fish in the 3 to 4 pound range. If you have live scope you can get them on a minnow or dropshot as well. Fish either bite immediately or not at all. Keep covering water. "

Cameron Creamer reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Finesse Jigs technique and Shimano Curado DC Casting Reel on Lake Champlain. Additional comments from this report: "Offshore reef and shoals producing nice small mouth bite for numbers. Open water sniper in hybrid goby provided best of both worlds with hair jig and traditional finesse jig features. Don’t be scared of the small thin wire hook, these things can take a beating! "
