Upper 40's should bring fish into the bays on Geneva....surface temp is 43 now, hopefully by next weekend we'll find some biting fish.

These pictures are makin' my mouth water. Geneva has been open for a while now, but water temps that I've seen are still high 30's. What temps do you look for on Geneva before bluegill activity starts? I'm anxious to get out, but I don't want to waste my time on unproductive water either.

The key to triggering strikes with this presentation is the pause when the spoon is dropping or fluttering back....cicadas fall pretty fast on the pause.

I would suggest a rod at least 7' and a medium sized reel with a long cast spool...small spinning reels require way too much cranking when the bite is hot!

Hey i just wanted to ask if you have ever tried the cicada's, they are a littl blade bait. They make those in 1/16 oz. I just wanted to k ow if you have tried them. Great jog on those gills.

Since you believe in these spoons soooooo much Ima buy me a few and a rod to throw them on. Bass pro has a good deal on some small spinning reels rite now.

Yes......they would work just fine!...Swap out the treble with a #8 or #6 Mustad Oshaugnessy hook.<br />
<br />
Swedes, Kastmasters, Forage minnows, Blue Fox spoons, micro-spoons,....they all have their place in the water column.....matching the right spoon for the conditions at hand requires owning a variety of weights, patterns and styles.<br />
<br />
I fish spoons 97% of the time....my partners and I have fished spoons 3 times since ice-out of 2009 (March 8th).....the talley for those 3 outings combined....179.…

Won't the 1/16oz. Northland Forage Minnow work? It too rattles. You could swap out the treble for a single hook.
