Summer Lures
#1
ChatterBait
Color: chartreuse/white · Size: 3/8 oz
Cast to weed edges and shallow structure, retrieve steadily with a slow-to-medium roll. The vibration cuts through murky water and triggers reaction strikes from stripers in shallow cover.
Murky water + high pressure + rising barometer demands a loud, vibrating reaction bait; chartreuse visibility is critical in stained conditions, and the blade's vibration compensates for poor visibility.
#2
Lipless Crankbait
Color: chartreuse/black · Size: 2.5 inch
Cast and retrieve with sharp, erratic twitches to mimic wounded baitfish. Work shallow weed lines and sand/mud transitions; the vibration and flash trigger aggressive strikes in murky water.
Murky water + recent heavy rain (0.508" on Jun 23) + rising pressure + high pressure = fish are aggressive but visibility is poor; lipless crankbaits displace water and vibrate loudly, cutting through stain.
#3
Spinnerbait
Color: chartreuse/white · Size: 1/2 oz
Slow-roll along weed edges and shallow structure with steady retrieve. The dual blades create flash and vibration that stripers can locate in murky water; pause briefly near cover.
High fishing pressure + murky water + shallow weedy cover = spinnerbait's blade flash and vibration overcome poor visibility and attract stripers despite heavy angling pressure.
